Conversations [ I ]

I am going to start posting silly conversations (translated, of course) that I have had during my time over here.

( with tall friend, Yuuki )

"Amy, how tall are you? What's your height?"
" ... I don't know..."
"You don't know? You don't know your own height?!"
"In America we don't use centimeters so I'm not sure what my height is in centimeters."
"You don't use centimeters in the US? Do you use inches?"
"Feet then inches."
"Ohhhh..."

while walking to the station

"Amy where are you going? We need to go this way."
"Oh."
"Amy... do you get lost a lot?"
"Yes."
"Hahaha I thought so. Do you know how to get to the station from here?"
"Nope!"
"Alright I'm going with you then."

at the station

"Do you know how to get to Takadanobaba from here?"
"Yeah!"
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah!!"
(very skeptical look)
"I'm going to ride with you until Takadanobaba."
"BUT IM FINE"
"IM GOING WITH YOU"
"HHHNNRRRGH"

at Takadanobaba

"I totally fell asleep. Did you sleep?"
"Not really."
"I had a really weird dream."
"Oh?"
"Yeah I was bowling and like, no matter what, the last pin wouldn't go down."
"... What."
"THE LAST PIN WOULDNT GO DOWN!!"

Amy's translation skills in action.
