TEST DRIVE MEME


> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters.
> The Mall. Exactly what it says on the tin! Dodge the hordes of teenage mallrats or take part, whichever suits your tastes.
> Rainy Day. Agh, it's fucking awful out. And is it raining those vermilion things?? Now you've got an Echo to contend with on top of everything else. Find some shelter, quick!
> PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, HOW FUN
> The most horribly kitschy Arts and Crafts Fair you can imagine.
> NEW YEARS. What better way to start out the new year than to learn that everything you know is a lie? Or if you are already acquainted with the network pass out some resolutions.

Wait. You haven't? I would've expected you to have...

Yeah. [poking at the mashed potato monstrosity on his plate.] There's a separate class for native speakers, because they totally expected people like Paco trying to take the easy way out.

Nope. Been to practically every country in Europe but Germany, actually. We just never found a really good time to go.

[Chuck tosses down his fork at the mention of the native speakers' class.] Augh, seriously?! Man, I should be taking that one! It's probably not that easy anyway, but at least I know the playing field when it comes to Spanish.

...Is that the one that Paco's failing?
escarabajo: (Jaime: you were hatched)

[personal profile] escarabajo 2014-01-08 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
Guess that means I have to beat you to it. Uh, if I can figure out how to get to Germany.

[PFFF.] Sorry, Chuck, that one's on you.

Thank God, yeah. I don't know what I'd do if that wasn't the case.

Well it's like a 9 or 10 hour flight to France, so it's probably like 11 hours to Germany. Plus some major jet lag.

I wonder if I can try and convince my parents to switch me out. They'll probably say something about how I need to be "well-learned in as many languages as possible," but it's worth a try anyway, right?

Pffft--they'll probably bump him down to the usual level Spanish class. He can learn to ask puedo ir al baƱo with everyone else.
