yeah, and it's one thing when you already know the person well,
and you don't need to rely (too much) on those non-verbal cues. but
it's another thing when you are just beginning to get to know the
person...
nice chat tonight. weekend plans didn't work out too well but at
least i'll get to see him for a while tomorrow night (fri). need to
start working on my finnish again,... :)
Tsemppiä Carol. Ajattelitko mennä katsomaan elokuvan, esim.
WALL-E:N hänen kanssaan? Kysyn vain koska itse haluaisin nähdä sen
niin pian kuin suinkin, ja pyytäisin vähiä kavereitani mukaan. Voin
kyllä kysyä Jarmoakin Helsinkiin mukaan.
And of your language abilities, Carol, I'm convinced you have
the knack to to "crack" the code that is Finnish. You are not a
teenager anymore so learning languages requires some work but AFAIK
you have progressed consistently. External motives help, too:
I'm so jealous! :) I'd feel so out of my waters (lol)
and under the mercy of other people that I'd tend to waiver to the
negative. But then I can't swim, which has its own security
implications. I hope you have a nice trip -- something that gives
you whole lot of rich meaning to your life.

Jos se on Tamperella, kyllä menemme Wall-E elokuvan. Mutta minun täytyy herätä aikainen lauantaina.

I don't swim very well either but there'll be life jackets :) Thanks, I plan to enjoy it thoroughly, even if I fall into the sea!

Tarkoitatko nyt meitä kahta, sinua ja minua niin kuin aiemmin oli puhe? Haluan vain varmistaa ettei tule sekaannusta. :)

us and whoever else interested in coming. Stefan, Minna, Jarmo perhaps? and if Jaakko is free as well... (i'll have to ask him tonight)

Ok, I'll try to "program" my brother to come, too. AFAIK, you two haven't met each other. Onkin korkea aika että hän tapaa parhaimman ystäväni. :)

yes, it's about time we met! and this is a part of my birthday month celebrations :D
