there were two. on my handphone. i'm using my cousin's old sim card so it was for her.
[in chinese]
"hi i'm calling from the company its about the collection of ur salary."
me: "well i'm afraid you've got the wrong number, she changed to a different one now"
"will it be convinent for you to tell me how to contact her then."
she spoke too fast = =|
i couldn really catch it until the 2nd time and she took down the number.
moments later
"hi sorry to disturb you but i couldnt reach her by her number"
me: "eh i'm afraid that she might have forgotten to bring her handphone as she told me on the msn"
"will it be convinent for you to take down the address for her?"
i'm like.. sure
so i rushed to a pen and paper...
then she start giving me the address.. 国贸大厦... smt smt smt
and i was like.. wtf how do u right MAO. then i got stuck at the 2nd word..
and i stoned for a while..
so i told her in english... all our conversation above was chinese..
"could you please give me an english version of the address?"
then she stun.
and after a short moment she's like "please hold on for a second"
and after 3 minutes of rustle.. she came back and she just spoke english into the phone
...and i'm telling you i can understand 60%. it wasn't easy... but i managed to take down the half of the address before giving up.. i'm like..
"hey, acturally chinese is fine.. i just dont know how to write them now i'm at my laptop its fine.."
and she was like
"can you understand chinese?"
= =|
i answered the phone call in chinese, twice... and how has a chinese address got to do with understanding chinese...
but oh well.. she spoke chinese.. and i realized i took down all the information necessary i just didnt know it ..
"hope you're happy at work" that's what she ended the call with...
i mean.. its in chinese.. 祝您工作愉快.. okay i think she make constant calls to employees and stuff.. its just weird to me - -|.
needless to say i'm like *stun*
"eh.. huh?.. oh!.. good day to you" *english*
i told my cousin about this and she said i might have given an awkward moment for the girl..
i was like - -|.. sorry i just need to revise my chinese spelling.
