What a good life. Woke up at late afternoon, went out and bought my water supply and FF20 worth of strawberry. Not very sweet at all, but I love strawberry. Still remember those days back in the strawberry field in UK. Sweet strawberry, big strawberry and fresh strawberry. Oh, those good old days.
Actually wanted to go down to Champs-Elysees for a movie, the Ghost and the Darkness. Went into a Thai Restaurant and had quite an unusual experience. On my left was two well-pass-mid-age ladies speaking in English. While on my right was a honeymoon couple from HK. I understood perfectly well what they were talking about.
I think I am really detached from HK as I really don’t think I can ever imitate their accent. (Why I use “their” by the way?) The guy was doing the talking all the time and the pretty wife (yeah, very pretty indeed) just listened. If I was the girl, I think his conversation was pretty dry and boring. Talking about his childhood and working progression. I mean, does she know it already by now? And talked about how he charmed his ladies and so on. Somewhere along the story, this wife of his wanted a watch, so he sent somebody up to her (office?) with a box of watches so that she could just select one. How romantic <flat voice>.
Towards the end of the dinner, one of the lady on my left wanted a cigarette. I mean she spent a few minutes explaining that it was very rude and so on. I mean, if you want one, you have one. As simple as that. At the end, she bought me a drink and I wanted a cup of tea. Totally unnecessary.
And I bought a CD, “Elysian Fields”. Kind of very dark music but I just liked it. First CD I bought in Paris this trip so far.
