There was a speech competition at our university last week. It was in English and therefore they asked if Jeremy and I would want to be the judges? I then had an important decision to make, should I be Paula or Randy? I don’t have an English accent so Simon was out.
I decided to go with the encouraging Paula. It was almost a 3 hour deal and by the 20th speech I was zoned out. There was one girl who kept referring to the paintings of Van Gogh, but every time she said Paintings is sounded just like “panties”!! You can imagine the judges trying to hold back their laughter on this one! Then this guy came up. I am still not sure what he was saying or if the whole thing was in English, but he was nervous and made me laugh.
Marry my daughter please. She is 25 and successful at her career. 5" 1' and 90 pounds. Smart, knows Chinese, English, Japanese, and German. Plays Violin, piano, and owns a car. Sound like a newspaper add? Its because it is. The paper and flyers you see here are from parents and grandparents trying to find their son and daughters spouses! These are people carefully picking their selections. I couldn't believe it....but what was crazy is that this went on throughout the whole park. I mean thousands of adds everywhere. I wasn't sure what I should think about it....but i found it very intriguing. How would you like for your parents to go the park every weekend to try to sell you to those who passed by?
