Q: Chinese expressions that have caught your attention?

In Guangdong especially the girls, when wanting to express something will use the 'ayaaaa'!.....etc....etc.....

Í found it to be specially charming.

Now in Suzhou, I found the girls to use 'wakhaa! .... 'instead

The first time I heard this exclamation I could not help but laugh, now I am getting used to it but still find it rather amusing and yes.......rather charming too.

Did you hear any other chinese expressions, somewhere else in China,  that did catch your attention ?
