    Cool Please help me chat up the girl of my dreams!

    Hi

    So I really like a girl at my uni. She's on in her 3rd year studying Spanish. she doesnt know that I know shes studying spanish but a mutual friend has told me.

    Any way, I'm going to a party that she will be at this weekend and would like to just bust out a few lines in spanish when she tells me thats what she does. If any of you could translate this for me then it would be great! (if you could do it in real spanish and also how it sounds, that would be really appreciated)

    "Oh really? You're studying spanish?
    Thats pretty cool...haha you look surprised. Yeh I speak a little bit. I like the way your eyes sparkle. I've got lots of hidden talents, maybe we should grab another drink and discuss the rest?"

    haha, cheesy, but I'm thinking it will sound half impressive and make her laugh...thanks in advance!

    Gosh...so you have your lil scheme there...dont you?

    En serio? Estudias espanol? Que bien...jaja te sorprendi? Si bueno hablo un poquito. Me gusta el brillo de tus ojos. Tengo muchos talentos escondidos, porque no nos tomamos un traguito y discutimos el resto??

    Oh boy! Cheesy is an understatement haha noo just kidding.

    Now tell me how you're going to go about the pronunciation of all that???

    Good luck anyway !

    Reminds me of a time, 25 years ago, when my husband and I visited Mexico. I didn't know a word of Spanish but didn't want to be "an ugly American" so I worked hard to figure out how to order a beer in a bottle, not a glass. The waiter came to the beach and I rattled off my well-rehearsed request....and he prattled back at me in Spanish, and of course I had no clue what he was saying so I sat there with my mouth hanging open and a dumb look on my face. So....you need an exit plan that creates the effect you're going for (vs. the dumb look).

    I agree with you. Oli needs a plan B and probably C too.
