My English is rusty, after 2 weeks of Thai-speaking, Thai-thinking, and, Arashi-updating ~ I think I'd just lost my fluency in English.
I don't even know if fluency is a word!?
And I can't consentrate that much: I keep losing my train of thoughts, I can't write while the songs playing anymore lately, it really bugs me! I'm not used to taking the time to think up the word or even stop to come up with the word I want, it just pops up. Now, I really want it back: the ability to do that.
I've been talking, gotten into these real, no-nonsense conversations with this guy I konw from my Speaking Class and they turned out to be very impressive, got me off guard too coz he doesn't look like the smart, experienced type you know, so I did stereotype him a little - I thought he was just another player, gangster, hiphop wannabe. It was a true awakening (for me & him) to get to know/talk to him.
He is pretty smart and cunny and of course, he's not flirty or so he says - but I caught him saying "that's cute" or "you're cute" or "you're cute doing that though" several times but there weren't obvious I guess he was trying to be elusive, subtle but I did catch those but that besides the point : P
The point is he was surprised to find out that I'm not that sweet, innocent, shallow, girly like he thought. He actually very blatant about his surprise too 'coz he told me "you're not as I thought you'd be, you're very smart!" - Umm, was that supposed to be a compliment, man?! hehehe..
And I discovered he wasn't as violent, a smart-asss nor a poser as I pictured him to be. He'd been through a lot and learnt from them and that impresses me. He's proved to be a good conversation partner and trust me, I am NOT flirting with him. Eventhough I don't think he's into me or anything - my friend still hints that I've got myself another admirer or this admirer has just surfaced.
