Learn Chinese in 10 Minutes

I was at my university today filling out a completely new blank Examination Form because my awesome university misplaced the form I had submitted on Tuesday. Thank God Ryan saw my name pending on the 'Not Submitted' list and asked me as to why I haven't. I take such things very seriously and do them as soon as possible. Living in Pakistan, you need to ready for anything to happen at any moment. So it's best to do wrap up important stuff as soon as possible.

Ryan had submitted his form yesterday and just tagged along today to get the 411 on how my studies are going and also to ask if I will explain to him a few things. We're standing in the line and he is boasting how I should do things on time like he does. Bleh! And then suddenly he says, "I was bored yesterday so I learned chinese!"

Everybody, literally everybody, turns around and they all have the WT* look on their face. The line only has people from our batch and though we are familiar with all of them, we don't talk regularly to all of them. You just can't maintain social contact with a batch of 300 plus students. But still, that statement got the WT* look from everyone.

He takes out a slip from his pocket and tells me that he can say these sentences in chinese perfectly. I argue that he didn't learn how to speak chinese, he just learned a few sentences. "Just ask me for the translation! By the time I'm done with it, you will be able to speak Chinese too. Think of all the hot chinese chicks you will be able to tap!", he teases.

I give him the 'You Know I'm Gay' look and he has that stupid smile plastered all over his face. It's pointless to argue against him at this moment, so I go ahead.

While I didn't learn chinese by the time it was over, I was definitely laughing my butt off at what just happened. Clueless?
