Life as AFAC

We were on our second straight week on working overtime for a pitch and my mind was blank. You know how it is that when one thing isn’t functioning you start noticing other things around you? Well, I noticed I was mindlessly curling my tongue and it seems to fold at will. I checked the reflection on my cellie and discovered I can fold it in different ways. So I checked in the mirror and see what I can do with my tongue, and whoa! I discovered I can do smiley faces with my tongue!

I mean, I can tie cherry stems into a knot (after a couple of drinks) but this is awesome. I can make one chinky eyed smiling face and I can make the regular big eyed one. My Ayi (maid) named them Zhongguoren (Chinese man) and Feilibin ren (Filipino). haha. Here are some shots, they have different expressions every time I do them coz my tongue muscles are not yet trained nor toned to do them properly. I can also make a heart!

A friend, who was amazed at how naturally limber my body is, once joked, “Someday you’re going to make some bloke really happy.” With my new talented tongue discovery, I guess I’ll someday make some bloke extremely happy.

This gives a new meaning to Tongue Twisters.
