Sipping my coffee, it came late... as I came early to work. The coffee man asked me whether my boss will come today, and of course he will although a lil late since he will take his son to dentist.
There is a funny story about that coffee man and my boss, but now I want to talk about something else. This morning I felt like craving for egg sandwich as I rode my motorbike to work and remembered one night me and Loon (a nick name I give to my friend) went out for some good time. We went to this sandwich place by the the street recommended by Loon. The sandwich was good and so was the price.
As usual, we talked in English all the time for two reasons... One, no one can be snoopy whatsoever. Two, English dept students have to practice a lot right :D
Anyway, then everyone was watching us including these young men who served us (woohoo!) and then one of them asked were you from abroad? Before I even opened my mouth Loon already said "Yes, she's from Thailand" LOL. And the guy looked at me with excitement, wth.
If he had a lil bit of knowledge (without looking down at him or Thais) I'd say he'd know I wasn't a Thai. Thais have thick accent that would influence their English, funny words they'd say as they don't have some consonants. Plus me and Loon are so Javanese, at least to me Loon is... and I, according to my lovely lecturer Pak Bibit, am too.
After all, its a good laugh... We were so happy doing it and were about to do the crime again to the next shop haha when then I realized my student (I was teaching at a high school at that time for university requirement) was helping his brother, the owner of the shop. So I said to Loon, lets go home lol.
1001 nights with Loon.
