i am exhausted...(4 days of sleeping late doesnt do wonders..)
but i really need to write this because i m touched deeply by someone's gesture...
so here goes..
thank you lionel for taking the extra effort to talk in english whenever you started talking in
chinese...
I was really touched...
haha lionel would start off in chinese (a few letters) before pausing and then starting all over again in english...
thank you...
haha i suppose most people don't realise that it really isn't nice sitting down and hearing a foreign converstion happening in a foreign language..i suppose it is only for the minorities...
then i realise how much the minorites really value this...
every time any of my indian friends and myself talk in tamil...we always translate for who ever who doesn't understand...
no-one askes for the translation...but we tell...i suppose its cause we noe wad it is like being kept in the dark...
i am not pointing fingers at any body...or anything..( i noe it is really natural to talk in your own language when you meet someone with the same mother tongue)...
but just want you to think the next time you are with a minority (in your group) how would you feel if you don't get wad is going on?...
so you see...what lionel did really touched me...thanks lionel...
P.S. thank you samantha e and samantha s..and fannie for doing the translation for me whenever i am lost...i really appreciate it...thank you
