I’ve been cracking the banana joke in Japanese practically all day. You prolly know that joke — you ask, “What’s Beethoven’s favorite fruit?” and you go, “Ba na na na~!” to the tune of one of Beethoven’s works.
So I ask, Beethovenは一番好きなくだものが知ってる?
I think I made people laugh. I’m not sure though.
Great news.
I think I’m really enjoying work. Like waitressing? I’m finally learning the art of spacing out and not letting the boredom get to me. Not that it’s going to make me more stupid, right? Right?!
So this girl I’m working with is turning 19 on the 29th. I kinda wanna buy her a gift even though we’re not that close. I mean… We talk. With her native Japanese and my broken one. I guess I feel sorry for her. She’s only 18 and already, she’s stopped school. She’s so adorably sad :c
Once, I saw her in the changing area, sitted on the desk, studying kanji on her own. When I came, she hid her workbook :s I asked Ryuji once why she’s not studying anymore and he just answered, “Personal reasons.”
So yeah.
If I can buy myself an iPod, I can certainly spare a few yen for a friend right? She’s always been so nice to me. Always smiling. I’m really lucky that my workplace is so chill — with everyone being so nice.
I hear about how Ryou’s part-time at the ice cream place and I cringe to think how I’d turn out if there’s a bitchy girl where I work. And then there’s Shin Tan and OShin who used to work for a place that had such a horrible boss that they both quit (I don’t think they got all the money they’re supposed to get).
Penny for your thoughts?
Aww, IMY 2!
