Things you don't learn from textbooks

Some of us learnt some new words over lunch today. We had a good laugh over it and i told Nic and gang that i would post this up.


(1) Ikimasho = Mickey Mouse Show ?




How we derived it?
Cecilia was telling Gal "Ikimasho". But it turned out that afew of us heard 'Mickey Mouse Show'. And naturally, we were all curious and broke out into laughter when we realised that she actually meant íkimasho which means 'let's go' in japanese. Hmm .... where did the mickey mouse comes from?


(2) I love you = I 老虎 you


Ha ha ... Nic remembered this from a chinese movie, Wong Fei Hung which he watched. Imagine him telling his son that? Sounds so weird. As if the daddy is an animal eatter.

(3) Harry Porter = Helicopter


Jed started wearing spectacles recently and some of us commented that he looks a little like Harry Porter who incidentally is on the cover of 8 Days magazine. He can't really pronounced 'Harry Porter' well and i heard that it came out as 'Helicopter'.

Ha ha ... and his godpa told us ... hmm .. what do you think of 'Helicopter and the Order of the Phoenix'. Alamak .. sounds like pirated version man.

Just for laughs!
