One fine day when we had a lot of free time, we were
in the middle of playing bridge when a teacher walked pass.
Kristie: *put down some cards and pretended to be talking about rotation on court* ....so you move to san hao wei and stand there.
Elaine: *wearing a look of utmost enthusiasm on her face* Okay okay, put more put more! (asking kristie to put down more cards)
Me: * thinking: elaine quite smart hor, know how to play along!
Kristie: *puts down a few more cards and continues talking about rotation
Elaine: *still looking as eager as ever* put more, put more!
After a while the teacher was out of sight and we took back our cards.
Me: Okay, continue!
Elaine: *wearing a shocked expression on her face* Huh, you not teaching me the positions on court meh?
Poor elaine actually thought that we would pause in the middle of a bridge game and suddenly start teaching her about how to rotate on court. Talk about having the passion to learn.
Actually, it's a lot funnier if you see thewhole thing happening. After all, my vocabulary is not wide enough to be able to aptly describe elaine's expressions in words.
