Asians usually have the peach sign accompanying then in their pictures. I am sorry, it is in every picture. And the peace doesnt discriminate also. They are among pictures with the president, hottest guys/gals, kids, families, boyfriends/girlfriends. No doubt I am pretty sure if any Asian had a chance of taking a picture with Jalal TALABANI, an international acknowledge handshake would not be present but replaced with a peace sign.
Peace signs can either be paraelled to their eyes, or with a stretched hand. Sometimes for speicial occasions, they are to be behind another persons head, resembling bunny ears.(Imagine that with Obama)
However, I was never able to go through this step in life which most Asians go through, because I was raised in pretty typical Asian Canadian family. So I developed my own peace sign that involves a bit more expression than sticking out two fingers
My version of a peace sign was the what is usually described the "expression to the max" : eyes squinted to the resemblences of a line; even though it is already like that due to the characteristircs of an Asian. My nose would be cringed when every wrinckle possible can be formed, exposing my tiny pores. Then my mouth would be opened as wide as possible, usually to the width that I can fit my fist in it. My hands would always be at a 45 degree angle, fingers spread out until I can feel my skin streched. My body slightly tilting to the side, as if my I was the crooked tower. I can maintein this possible for approximately 5 seconds, becassue if I hold the pose any longer than that, the expression would be maxed out due to the hyper-tension. How peaceful
Now, imagine my version of the peace sign replacing the typical peace sign. What would happen to all the pictures...
