My fingernails are growing like there is no tomorrow. I have already clipped them thrice this year, which amounts to a rate of once a week. Wow! Although this is an indubitable sign of vitality, it still annoys me no end. Why are my eyebrows not growing at the same fabulous rate? Gosh, I would love to make them pointy and sharp. Come to think of it, I will have to go to my barber’s pretty soon. After more than a month, my hair looks like a wild bush. Just like my fingernails, it gives me little pleasure in its feral growth. “The eyebrows,” I feel like shouting toward the sky, “the eyebrows!” No-one is listening, it goes without saying.
