When I was a schoolgirl, I used to wear my hair in a ponytail.  It was the fashion those days.  I was very proud of it as it was thick and bushy and had a natural curl.  However, it soon got in the way.  It would brush against Mum's face when I walked past her and whenever that happened, she would yell, "Say 'PAI'!"  I soon learnt that saying "PAI" takes away the bad luck that goes with the brushing.  Mum was very relieved when I later cut my hair short.
