SO FISH!


I really have to learn how to speak Cantonese!
OK, here's an account of what had happened just now.
Initially, I wanted to phone KTG.
It so happened that his number and one of my teacher's number are beside each other.
So, I da cho dim wa!
You can guess what happened next.
My teacher picked up the phone and speak whole lot of Cantonese, which I understand but I don't know how to speak.
This is what she said: lei da cho dim wa hai mai, lei wan bin ko?
And sounded quite unfriendly...
Without hesitation, I decided to put off the line...
If only I knew she was my teacher.

After a moment, I realised the fact that: She IS my teacher!
I was like,Uh-Oh~
OK, if the person don't know who am I then it's fine, but she's my teacher!
I hesitate whether or not to SMS my apologies to her, since I acted quite rude by putting off the line without saying 'sorry' in Cantonese.
If I know earlier that was her, I would definitely speak in English.
*She's a banana, btw...
Then I SMS her, and earnestly waited for the reply.
After half an hour, she replied!
I was so relieved that she said she don't mind.

In conclusion, I need to learn to speak Cantonese before I fish for another time.
This is what I told my dad: Speak to me in Cantonese next time, because I'm a KL-ian!
