Oh yeah I forgot to mention this, apparently I look really Portuguese. So far everyone thinks I am and talks to me in really fast blurred Portuguese and all they get in return is a blank stare and, "english?" Tonight at Starbucks (yeahhhhh. I went there.) I was moving around chairs to fit for everyone, and these two old men are sitting at the next table and one starts talking to me in Portuguese, really smiley and nice. Not creepy, like a grandpa saying something funny to you. I smiled and nodded, he kept talking, and then he asked me a question and I was like "uhhhh I speak english sorry! I'm learning portuguese!" and he goes... "no portuguesa?!!!"
Then he "psh's" and rolls his eyes and totally loses his cuteness. He waved his hand at me like go away. Not because I was acting like I knew what he was saying before, but because I don't speak Portuguese. I was SOOOOOOO angry. Not a good experience. Whatever, some are stuck in their ways.
