Саша меня дразнил (он почему-то всегда считает, что если я чего-то не делаю - надо меня подразнить хорошенько, чтоб до слез и тогда я сразу сделаю) и говорил, что надо учиться есть палочками. А я жрать хочу, а не выделываться с палочками!
Сегодня он меня заманил в сушильню. Я храбро пальцы узелком завязала и ела палочками. Даже не уронила ничего и сама не обляпалась :) Забавный опыт получился.
(I can't use chopsticks. I don't go to sushi restaurants because of it and always ask for a fork in other eateries. When we were in an international restaurant in Beijing, I didn't get a fork, they simply didn't understand what I needed.
Sasha teased me (he thinks he has to tease me thoroughly and I'll do what I should) and told me to learn to eat with chopsticks. I don' want to learn, I want to gorge!
Today he lured me into a sushi place. I bravely knotted my fingers and ate with chopsticks. I didn't even drop anything or got dirty :) Funny experience.)
Кроме того, меня тут сподвигли на написание/дублирование своих постов на английском, как вы поняли. Ну а раз я тут сегодня такая уже расхрабрившаяся, то после позора в сушильне продолжу позориться тут :)

Если первое - то пожалуйста, если второе - то не спеши, там может быть косяков масса. Его еще мои англоэксперты не проверяли :)
Но большое спасибо за поддержку
thesushi restaurants because of it and always ask for a fork intheother eateries.You're talking about restaurants in general, not about concrete or already mentioned restaurants, so the article isn't needed.
When we were in an international restaurant in Beijing, I didn't get a fork, they simply didn't understand what I needED.

decoyedlured metointothea sushi place.Not too bad.
Decoy is rarely used as a verb. Further, it's usually associated with some kind of bait, deception and danger. Lure is better here.
Since you're introducing a new thing (the sushi place), you have to use the indefinite article 'a'.
EvenI didn't even drop anything or got dirty :)I'd rather keep 'I'. It's a little awkward without it here.
Words like 'even', 'always', 'never', etc are normally put between the auxiliary/help verb (a form of 'to be' or 'to have' that's used to make various tenses) and the main verb. We say things like 'I have never been there' and 'I have always loved her/him'. Remember the position of these words. They're kind of "inside" the verb.
HadIt was a funny experience. OR just Funny experience.А дублирование полезно, будем учиться вместе;)
Ага, будем учиться :)
Сама переведи ;)
it took me like 2 years to master my using chopsticks skills, but once I learned, I learned! Now I can eat everything with chopsticks including salads, Chinese noodles and rice!
I can't say that I learned, but yesterday I ate rice with chopsticks! :)
The most difficult things for me was to eat sashimi.
Btw, how do you like sushi? Are you a sushi-lover now or not so much?
I'm gonna start to learn how to use chopsticks properly, because of the reason that you meant.
Хотя руками, конечно, удобнее.
А ты палочками владеешь?
Katia - dont pay so much attention to what other people think - it is not THAT important! Though eating using chopsticks is great, I love it, I cannot eat sushi using fork or hands because they do not taste the same to me. Learn it just because its a new experience, and its great, but not because someone can look at you or "think smth about you". Wrong motivation!
PS: Learned smth new today - word "lure". I have never heard it from anyone else before, local people probably use some other word, but I cannot think of it right now.
PSS: Couldnt help adding this - just heard the "right" word that they use here in cases like that: "dragged". Would be "He dragged me into ..."

Sure, we can :) Unfortunately, almost all of my posts are in Russian, so you could find this LJ not interesting. Anyway, I'll try to post in English more in future
