Over the last two years, I've noticed people young and old with an ever so slight red vertical line in between their eye brows. The observation was random mind you. I was convinced it was from a visit to the pagoda connected to lunar prayers or some other kind of religious rite. On Saturday, I asked a student ... after so long ... where did you get the mark? Who gave it to you? Turns out its a way to get rid of headaches or the flu. This particular student said her father gave it to her by pulling the skin. That evening, I had a wonderful night of drinking and eating too much with friends and woke up with a horrible hangover, so I decided to give it a try. I woke up the next morning with a huge third eye hickey. Not a gentle thin line, but a huge red blotch. After five days, I still have proof that I had a headache aka hangover. Lesson learned:)
