My Japanese tutor is a Caucasian!! OMG, I got a shocked when I first stepped into the tutorial class. Haha. So weird. Okay, maybe it is just me, but it so interesting to hear them speak Asian words. Haha. I must say, she knows her stuffs.
Anyway, when I went to have this free BBQ, don't know when, haha, we played an ice-breaker. We are supposed to roam around and ask other different people questions. The main purpose is to let all the different people mingle around. And, there was this Australian couple who knows how to speak MANDARIN! The wife, Emily, is doing her master in Monash. Her conversation skills are not very good yet, but she still knows understands. The husband, Brett, speaks better than Emily. Haha. So, me and chew ling started to test him by talking to him in Chinese. Haha. And, he handles it well! However, poor Braine, who don't know Chinese was filled with question marks in the air. Haa. And, Emily has to translate it into English for him. Haha. Shame on him. Haha. Need an "ang mo" to tell him what we are talking about. Hahaha. Okay la, it is not his fault that he doesn't know Chinese. As his first language is French and second language is English, according to him, his French is better than English. By the way, Braine's ancestor is from China, but they migrated to Moriches. (okie, I don't know how to spell his country) Thus, the later generation soon forgot how to speak Chinese. How sad. Haha.
