Funnies

So, are roommates are SUPER EXCITED and fun all the time.  Every meal we have with them turns into this shouting and laughing extravaganza!!!  They love to tell us funny stories and jokes.  Half of our laughs are just from having no idea what they are actually saying!  Here are some funny things that some of the roommates have said/done:
  • Today, at lunch, one roommate told us that “Lots of times, people eat mushroom and then laugh all day”
  • Last night, we were all in tears because the girls were showing us their inappropriate hand gestures….just imagine them trying to explain them!  It was great, especially when an American, Bao, on the other side of the table started making the signs without knowing what they meant.
  • Today, at the work site, they kept asking us to help them pronounce “Cement.”  They kept saying “Semen” and we all had a good laugh trying to explain to them the difference between “Cement” and “Semen”
