I am a fairly confident person. Somewhere in between giving a speech to strangers and shakin' it on the dancefloor. But every once in a while a situation arises in which I find myself unsure...
For example...
(Japanese conversation in the McDonald's drive thru)
Employee: Welcome to McDonald's. May I take your order.
Daniel: Yes. I would like a Big Mac Set.
Employee: Cheeseburger set?
Daniel: No. Big Mac Set please.
Employee: Cheeseburger set?
At this point I start to wonder if I actually do want a cheeseburger set. Maybe this random McDonald's employee knows me better than I know myself.
Usually, it is the questioning of my most basic answers that will send me backpeddaling and wondering if I really know what I know. A perfect example of this happened today...
Teacher: Daniel sensei. Do you know ---- sensei?
Daniel: Yes. She is teaching 5th grade again.
Teacher: Ah. I see. Is she well?
Daniel: Yes.
Teacher: Ah...really?
Daniel: Yes...At least I think so...She seems fine to me...You know I'm not really sure...I don't know ok!..(and then I ran from the room crying).
Ok. All of that did not actually happen, but I think I've made my point. So until next time I will be learning everything about everything and everyone so it never happens again.
