I am taking a deep dive into the friendship ring today by going out with a girl who saw my ad on a website called Tealit to do some language exchange and to hopefully make friends with her.
I have talked extensively over Facebook with her and I asked her if she would like to go grab a coffee. But I kind of made her choose the place and since she has a car she is picking me up. (I am very romantic :P) As you can tell.
I will bring my camera with me just to see where she takes me and hopefully it will be somewhere nice. The main purpose is for her to teach me a little Chinese and to test me for a test I have coming up on Monday. (I also have another language exchange person teaching me on Monday too) So hopefully I can learn this Chinese stuff fast. I already know bopomofo quite well. It was just the pronouncing of words and the 4 tones that I suffer with. So hopefully she can help me with that.
I am kind of scared or apprehensive as I have never done anything like this before, so I don’t know how it will go! I hope she likes my humour and I hope she can actually understand me. Hahaa! I talked to her on the phone and she kind of couldn’t understand me too well, but I think her level of English is quite good. My Chinese is poor — so it is good she can speak somewhat decent English and she types quite well too! 🙂
Just a random picture I took, when I went to this famous place called "Sun Moon Lake" in Taiwan!
