Why noses?
It is time to meet FangFang. FangFang is a nice Xiangtan girl who likes to look pretty. She also likes Taiwanese bubblegum pop music and her rockstar boyfriend.
This is all I know about FangFang because all she ever talked to me about was looking pretty. Until one day the Foreign Nose entered the scene. Who is the Foreign Nose? I am! Then the conversation revolved solely around the similarity between my nose and FangFang's. This was cute the first time it was brought up by a sweet old lady. After several months passed, The Nose was still considered fascinating to all despite the fact that our noses looked no more similar than the noses of any other two girls also possessing a nose in the middle of their face. Interestingly enough, it was around the same time that I realized China was pretty damned boring and I had to leave the country - before my brain turned as mushy as the other expats who were night after night enchanted by The Mystery of the Nose. The Noses For your inspection and consideration I now present five noses. For fun and delight, take a guess!! They belong to FangFang (Chinese), a drunk old Chinese man, and myself (none of the above). Can you guess which is which?
