( Sorry for grammatical errors and sounds corny, because I am poor in English. Anyway this is my real story to share with anyone.)
It was the first few months I was in US. I like to explore new things. So I saw & went into this cafe named Mo's Midtown in Hartford, Connecticut that served food for breakfast.
This waitress, a fat black lady was so welcoming and although I tried hard to sound like American, she noticed that I was new and of course, from my accent, she could tell I was not a local. And when she asked about my origin, I had to tell her that I was from a small rural town in Malaysia, a country between Thailand & Singapore and be there for continuing studies.
She smiled and offered me the mostlly requested order, i.e. the regular breakfast menu; a plate of grilled potatoes, corned beef hash, and eggs.
She asked me if I liked the eggs to be cooked as "Sunny Side Up"
And that was the 1st time I heard the term 'Sunny Side Up', and I said "yes!".
(I was happy & proud to know this new word, but I would rather not to ask her how does it looked or cooked, because I had to pretend that I knew it. I also got to know OJ is for Orange Juice. Great knowledge!)
The 2nd time I went there, I brought my countryman, I was trying to show him off that I was getting Americanized by knowing the food, especially when the time that big lady asked me, how I would like the eggs to be prepared.
With all the confidence in me, I proudly said "Sunny Side Up"! and yes, I was so sure that my friend was impressed.
Alhough I was proud of that, deep in my heart, I did not actually liked the uncooked upper-part of the eggs. (I would always like eat it cooked both sides.)
After a couple of weeks I came back alone to the cafe and this friendly black lady again greeted me and as usual, asked me the order. "Regular?" I said "Yes". She asked again "& Sunny Side Up for the eggs? I did not know why, spontaneously, I said "No". And that made her lifted her eyebrows and waited for my answer admiringly. And....You know what? With a little cautious and try to be confident, I can't imagine that I had said this...,
" No, no.., this time I want it to be......a....Sunny Side Down...'
Holy smoke! I knew I have fooled myself the moment she cracked up, laughed out loud, bent herself & held on to my table for about 15-20 seconds, attracted all the crowd in the cafe and then told all the crowd about this Malaysian guy & his "Sunny-Side-Down" order!!
Oh boy...I just can't forget that!

popping out ! He was going to tell me something...and they
almost fell out! He started laughing so hard, and then I was
laughing...we were crying and laughing hysterically! We just
couldn't stop....well, I started peeing my pants..!! So, we were
laughing even harder....it was the funniest thing and pretty
embarrasing for both of us...lol

I wear glasses and I am always misplacing them. I had to cover for the receoptionist one day and I could not locate my glasses. I asked the recept. if she had seen them. Looking straight at me she said no. I walked away, happened to look at the glass door - lo and behold there they were on my face. They are pretty lightweight frames and lenses.
