Favourite TV show = HIMYM... it's also the only DVD box set(s) i've ever bought for a series.
Re-watching it from season 1, i don't think ESL speakers will get all the nuances in the show.... which led me to think: Do you think Leehom watches it? Do you think Leehom likes it? ... i don't know how my thoughts skipped to that...
In other news...
an MD introduced me an RN today, in passing, in the hallway. For whatever reason, he told her that i speak Mandarin. She didn't believe him, aggressively shouting that out to both the MD and me. She then turned to me and said "你好吗" (how r u, 'ni hao ma'). I was thinking "what the fuck?!?!?! seriously, who the hell says that?!?" - i didn't even know how to respond!!!! So i said "好" (good, 'hao'). She looked at me flabbergasted! "HOW do you speak Mandarin," she asked "Your English is so good! How do you speak Mandarin!!!" ... i didn't know what to say.... like, really???? Is she new here???? wtf?!?!?!?! I said two words to her - "Hi" and "好". she's kinda stupid, kinda very stupid.
