Western by default

I was chatting with James and the subject of bananas and eggs came up. Apparently for angmohs to be called 'an egg' is an insult. What's an egg? It is the opposite of a banana - white on the outside and yellow on the inside. If anybody calls me a banana, I'd feel nothing. I can't deny that I'm one... not when my mandirin sucks as bad as it does. I'm proud to be an Asian who has had the best of the east and west. I can't help being westernised as I am as I grew up with globalisation rampant since way back then.

*Continue later.... my mind is all snoozy now.
