08/30/2004 Entry: "'Chee-naaar-tah-un'"
  'Chee-naaar-tah-un'
Do people create stereotypes based on observation of a large number of people bearing the same characteristics, or did they start as exaggerated depictions of said flock which eventually became a reality? I lost myself at the tourist markets today, falling in love all over again with the anonymity of being foreign in my own city. The beautiful local handicrafts diverted my every step, and the rich tapestry of colours painted my imagination in mischievious hues. Oh, the possibilities of the afternoon! I would go 'inspiration shopping', I decided, finding new and exciting things were just up my alley. My thoughts were interrupted by two men, foreigners, who were looking for "chee-naaar-tah-un". It took me a while to translate that they meant 'Chinatown', and were stretching each syllable into unrecognisable phonetics because they thought I didn't speak english. They were Brits, it appeared, and I replied in equalled exaggeration, giving directions in horribly broken english. They said thank you, nodding their heads smiling. I winked as I said 'You're absolutely welcome!' with a perfect British accent, and skipped away into the sea of possibilities.

GDAY MATE! HOWSIT GOIN MATE? How ya travelling cobber? I'm on me own pat malone here feeling really bored. Bout to do a spot of excercise trotting up and down the apples and pears, but the missus hollered on the dog and bone. Seems she's gone to town on me with the old plastic and blew the donkey open. Anyway. I've been told that there is a high possibility I'll be back to do what I do for a crust in Kl pretty shortly...which would mean that the missus will have to tag alone for the ride. As long as you're able to take her out shopping, then bob's my uncle and we're sorted. Ta anyway.
