A CUT ABOVE THE REST

FINALLY! The lion has been tamed and the unmanageable hair, sacrificed. Nope, we are NOT talking about Mufassal the Lion King, but my brother Ihsan, the Drama King cum the Lion King of our household. Inspired by Dini Amani's family visit to the barber, Mummy eventually decided to cut Ihsan's messy mane ~ much to the relief of Granny & the Bibiks.

Being the Drama King he is, Ihsan caused much chaos and pandemonium in the oh-not-so-glamorous-but-highly-efficient-and-skillful-barber shop, just opposite the road of Riverina. Imagine, having THREE man, just to ensure that the mane is cut to precision. (Ihsan's crying and wailing somewhat reminded me of Paul T/w/o/h/i/l/l of SI - who confessed that he'd cry like a girl if his hair is cut). Anyway, couldn't stand the racket and clamor, I decided to sit on one of the attractive kiddy rides just outside the shop. Hmm.... Actually, more like surveying which kiddy rides to choose when we are done with Ihsan's haircut. Hehe.... (*Rubs Hands In Glee*)

But what truly made MUMMY'S HAIR stand, was this:

Barber 1: Bawak mainan ke tak? First time eh dia potong rambut?

Daddy: Tak bawak. A ah. First time potong rambut. Tak pernah potong sejak cukur rambut. (Smiles)

Barber 1: Hmm, takpelah. Tapi dulu ada satu kes tau. Ada budak ni nangis-nangis and menggelenyah macam ni. Sekali bila potong rambut, terkena telinga dia sikit. Bapak budak itu sue barber dia. So, masih nak potong rambut budak ni jugak?

Daddy: Er.... Ah, potong, potong, potong....(Bewildered)

LOL! I think that creepy story could probably scare Ihsan off from the start. No wonder he was causing such a din and trying to break loose from the barber's chair from the very beginning!
