Becks and Kelly go to a Comedy Show...Hilarity Ensues

It all started so innocently.  We just wanted to do something different, so we found this comedy club and were so excited.  It started off great, this group of cute guys came and sat next to us, and the first few comedians were really funny.  This comedy club was a BYOB situation and we didn't know so we only had one drink on us each, so we asked the guys next to us if we could buy some beer off of them, and they said it was our lucky day because there was some mix up when they were buying and they had an extra four beers.  YESSSSSSSS!!!  This turned out to be unlucky for the next few comedians.  We weren't really heckling, we were being our version of vocally supportive, turns out they are the same thing.  Here is our exchange with the last comedian.

          Funny Guy:  So, are you guys with these two? (meaning us)

          Guys:  No, we just met them tonight

          Funny Guy:  Are you girls trying to get with them?

          Me:  Well, we were, but now you've ruined it!

          Funny Guy:  No, YOU ruined it...you know you two are the reason western guys date asian girls.

shiiiiiiiiiiit!!!  we got served!!!!  this was after this exchange with the same comedian:

          Funny Guy:  Who's been drinking tonight?!

          Me:  WOOOOOOOO!!!!!

          Funny Guy:  Yeah, we all know you're drunk.

          Me:  I wouldn't say I'm not incoherent (*this is a quote from Beck's dad, and then, I couldn't keep        myself from continuing with) And Beck's dad has and accordion and when I go to visit I"M going to get to    play it!!!!

So, I was basically quoting inside jokes from myself and Beck's dad.  There was some sort of camera crew there to make a publicity video for a couple of the comedians, and when Becks went to go to the bathroom and one of the earlier comedians wouldn't let her pass because he said we were so horrible that the camera crew left because they couldn't use any of the footage.  After the show, we saw the MC and asked if we were really that bad and he told us we were "a comedian's worst nightmare."  This sent Becks into a downward spiral of guilt while I just congratulated us on making it through a weekend with only ruining two careers that weren't even our own, tamAYto tamAHto.

sports day

Sunday was my school's sports day.  My day started at 6am and we were out in the sun until 4, but we got monday off, so no worries.  The day started with all the children marching in with their classes, each english teacher led a grade (so k3, k2, k1, and nursery) I was leading the nursery kids, they are all about 2 years old and half of them were crying, i saw one throw up, it was all kind of a mess.  Then, we all did some sort of a warm-up dance, then the english teachers and some of the chinese teachers did a flag dance before the games ensued.  My flatmate Rebecca was kind enough to come to video the flag dance which i have drunkenly performed with a knife (instead of a flag) in the weeks before sports day.  




I'm the one in the front right, and then i move to the middle, please hold your applause until the end :)
