Beautiful faces

Went to Old Town's pasar today , with my mom and lil brother.
Saw lots of beautiful faces.
The 1 who made kuih bangkit, the flower aunty, the vegetable stall's old couple...and more....Although they are just a hawker, or fish monger or others in that pasar, they really have nice and kind face. And some of them are even well educated and knowledgeble. There was 1 Indian aunty who sells rempah like curry and assorments, could actually speak cantonese and some hokien!!!Spend lots of time studying and talking to some of them this morning while waiting for my mom to do her errands.Even saw a cows brain..er, head chope in to halves, so u can actually see the content. bio class...i actually stood that and watch.

The one that surprises me most is the chicken stall at the corner of the chicken section. The uncle who run this stall have a really kind face! i stood in front of his stall for quite a long time. So i was observing it..i see through the process of him slaughtering the chickens. Although he is the one who catch the chicken out, his worker does the slaughtering job for him...the process of slaughtering of chinese stalls is different from the malay stalls according to my mom. From what i saw, the uncle's worker just slit the chicken's throat, and let it die off slowly. But for Malay stalls, most chop off the heads. Cant tell which is better.Dun quite like that scene. the squeling of the chickens which were caught is really unbearable.

Still, i believe that that uncle does have a kind heart. Your personality does show on your facial expression.
