How easy it is to talk to people… all over the world. Literally.
I counted up the other night where all I usually talk to people from — IM’s, comments, emails, whatever. Nine states in the United States. Turkey, Ecuador, Japan, Vanuatu. Occasionally I bump into some of the Aussies or Kiwis on the Rebelution. And from time to time, I get comments from South Africa. Fun stuff.
Although it’s not just online. At youth group we like trying out our Spanish on each other (more of last year, when Antion was still around for quizzing — oh, what days… when Anna, whose first language was Chinese, and myself, whose first language was obviously English — both tried giving the same Spanish answer to a question in an actual quiz…), we have a few girls from China, and a few more working on learning Chinese, and there is also a lady from Thailand who I’ve become friends with.
I love it.
Goodnight.
