One day when I was on my way home from hospital, I texted Jeff.

Mizuki: I just got done with the hospital.

 

Jeff: Oh? I am reading books.

Mizuki: Oh yeah? I am so hungry. What should we eat for lunch?

Jeff: I need another 10 minutes for my reading session.

Mizuki: OK! Can you make lunch when you are done with reading? I am walking home from here. I want to eat right when I get home!

Jeff: What?? Why are you been so selfish?!!!(#`皿´)

 

You might not be able to feel how surprised I was when I translated all above into english.

Jeff really surprised me! He talked back to me like a native Japanese person at that moment!

Jeff also picked up bad Japanese words really fast…….from me!

I really need to be careful at choosing my words from now on……….
