The Weekend
Before I tell you about the weekend I should introduce a new person to this story (about my life). Meet Jimmy Wong. He's 181 cm, the funniest person I've met in Hong Kong and was an exchange student in the USA. He thinks he can dance better than I can and he's right.
On Friday I went with Shumpei (my Japanese friend who acts a bit like John), Alex andJustine (cute couple) and Dominic (you should know him by now) out for dinner, we ate sushi and had a quiete evening together. Cosy.
On Saturday I found out that one of my best friends in Iceland won the first round in a very big, interschool wuestion-competition on the radio! Well he's in a team but I'm so proud of him that I'm sure I'll blow up (that's an Icelandic saying).
I slept instead of watching the next round in the Sing Tao debating competition. We have to start practising though... I didn't sleep through the AFS meeting. Next weekend I'll be introducing Iceland and Europe to locals, for a change.
After this(really fun) meeting I went with Nicole (Miss America), Jean (who broke up with a girl because she didn't like Jackie Chan and wouldn't watch Rush Hour with him, when the girl started crying he said "Kidding!"), Thorsten (he just had his hair cut), Kanel (what's black and white and walks like a jellyfish?), Sebastian (no comment) and Felix (who plucks his eyebrows) to a mall. We went to KFC which IS interesting.Then I met Jimmy, we looked through pictures since he was an exchange student,ate (he liked my homemade ice cream!), watched Coupling and lauched for 6 hours. He's fantastic. Today I went to watch Ada (my best Chinese friend) and Yuki (who also went exchange to USA) dance!
After that I went with Ambra and Francesca (the Italians I talk to) to Pacifid Coffee to meet Chloe (who used to be an exchange student in Italy) and Jimmy. Me, Chloe and Jimmy then went to the cinema. We saw a film called Alexander. Asides from trying to teach geography and a little history (I go to school, I don't pay to see movies that teach me geography), the movie focused on Alexander the great being bisexual. I found it interesting that he died on the 10th of June (I was born on the 10th of June, just a few years later). I haven't been this bored in the cinema since I saw THE passion of THE Christ. It didn't help that Jimmy went to the wrong movie hall. Smart boy.
