Genius!

On my way to language today my driver told me that I was a genius. We went through the whole negotiating for a price thing and I got in and then he asked me the same questions that every driver always asks like 'Where are you from? Where do you work? Are you married?, etc' and when we finished those he said, in English, 'You're a genius'. What's sad is that it was really a confidence booster on a bad day even though I know that I'm not a genius and I answer those same questions 5 times a day so I pretty much have those answers down. Ask me about the economy and I wouldn't be able to say a word. When I got to language my tutor asked me how was my Arabic today and when I told him about the genius guy he said 'It's not like you invented it'. Thanks buddy!
