- "Hey, Arielle. How do you say 'gay' in Tagalog?"
[Gay? Do you wanna know happy-gay or homo-gay?]
- "Like.... 'Raymond is homo' gay."
[Bakla si Raymond, Danny. It's 'bakla.']
- "Okay, thanks Arielle. HEY RAYMOND! YOU'RE BAKLA!"
[/face palm]
- "Hmm? Hey, what does that say?"
[What does what say?]
- "Right there -- on the side of your binder. Wait, lemme read it.... 'Kitty is sad because you're...dumb...'"
[Oh! That thing.]
- "............"
[What?]
- "That's just mean, Arielle. That's cold."
[What are you talking about?!]
- "That's cold, Arielle. That's cold."
[Dude! I didn't tell you to read it! You did it yourself.]
- "............"
[............]
- "Yeah, I know. I'm just messing with you. Haha!"
[Pshhhh...]
- "Why do you do that, Arielle? Why do you keep the gum wrappers, fold them so it looks like it still has gum, and put them back in the packet?"
[Because, Danny, people steal my gum all the time. I do this because I set traps to confuse them.]
- "Really? I wanna see if I can find one next time."
[Sure, Danny. Next time.]
- "Dude...Arielle... Never eat the new Volcano Taco from Taco Bell... My stomach's still a little messed up from eating one last night..."
[Really? Then it's a good thing that I don't like spicy food.]
- "Hey, can I take a look inside your tennis bag?"
[Sure, I don't mind.]
- "Oh, but are there any surprises in your bag?"
[Unless you count sports bras as surprises, no.]
- "Okay, but it's clean right?"
[Of course it's clean! That's just nasty.]
- "Haha, just making sure. You know, us tennis boys just throw our dirty clothes in our bag. We don't care."
[Dude, I didn't really need to know that.]
- "What do you think, Arielle?"
[Think? About what?]
- "ABDC! Who do you think is going to win? Quest Crew or Beat Freaks?"
[Honestly, I think Beat Freaks might.]
- "WHAT?! C'mon, Arielle! Quest Crew! They're ASIAN!"
[Haha, and so are you and I. So?]
- " 'So?' Pshhhh. Asian Persuasion, man. Watch. Quest Crew is going to be America's Best Dance Crew."
[Whatever you say, Danny.]
- "What do you mean 'Federer needs to lose?' He already lost Wimbledon to Nadal! Cut the man some slack."
[Federer needs to lose. End of story.]
- "So, what are you gonna study in college, Arielle?"
[Me? Nursing.]
- "REALLY?! All Filipino women, man!"
[Yeah, I know. Way to beat the stereotype right?]
- "Haha, yeah. But if it's what you wanna do."
[Yeah. What about you, Danny? What are you shooting for?]
- "Hmmm... I dunno yet. There's still a lot of things I want to do."
[Well, there's no need to worry right now. You can figure it out once we get there.]
- "Yeah, that's true."
- "Hey, Arielle. Can you swing by the courts after school and help us practice doubles? We really need the help."
[Don't worry, Danny. I will. I promise.]
[ Daniel Lee lives through me. ]
