Fili’s world

(Deep conversations continued…) 10 more sentences I get to hear ALOT lately:

1. What was the weather like over there?
2. You haven’t changed one bit. Do you think you’ve changed? We’ve changed. Don’t you think we’ve changed?
3. Right, I know EXACTLY what you mean. It reminds me of the time when I …
4. Oh yeah, oh yeah, I was also there. I mean, not there, but very similar. Well, I mean, not similar, but it’s still an interesting story…
5. Where is Taiwan? Isn’t Taiwan a part of China?
6. Nah, nothing to tell, my life’s not that interesting, you’re the one with the stories.
7. So… so… what do you think about your new neice? isn’t she gorgeous? isn’t she the cutest thing? isn’t she the most clever baby you’ve met? aren’t you happy to meet her?
8. But, but, I -heard- that it isn’t actually like you say it is. I’ve also had a friend who said that it’s not like that…
9. How’s that cute girl we’ve read about?
10. So, are you coming to work for/with me?

10 more short responses:

1. The weather, eh? I’m glad you asked that. It’s my absolute number one favorite subject.
2. Oh, yeah, definitly. You’ve come such a long way, I can hardly recognize you guys. I wish I haven’t gone away so I could make as much change as you’ve made.
3. Thanks for that. I was really hoping you’d tell me that story… again.
4. Let me leave this small photo of myself here with you, and you call me when you want to talk to something that actually talks back.
5. Ouuuchh… for some Taiwanese it’s like I would ask you - Isn’t Israel a part of Syria?
6. But you should consider that this is the 50th time I’ve been talking about my trip in just the past day, so hearing something about you would make MY time with you more interesting.
7. I’ve been waiting my WHOLE life to have a niece. There’s nothing that I’ve EVER wanted more than to be an uncle. She’s god’s TRUE gift to my soul. Bahh… … yeah, she’s okay, I guess.
8. Oh! then your friend must have been talking about THAT Vietnam. I was talking about the OTHER Vietnam… the one that’s real.
9. :-((
10. Do you have an Asian branch?
