CHAPTER 1
I wanna crow ... Gonna tell everyone I know ... Have some fun and lighten up ...
Hey, guys!
Suki! Where you been?
Goofyfoot!
Goof, did you bring your wax comb? I left mine in the car.
You left mine in the car. You lost yours last week.
Where were you? It's not like you to be late.
Later ...
Tsk! Oy! I'll never get angevont (ACCUSTOMED) to these prices!
That's $19.55!
Yes! No! I mean, angevont these prices! I'm not used to these prices!
It's always been $19.55!
I was just saying! Warum Schreiste? (WHY ARE YOU HOLLERING?)
Hey! Don't call me names!
She's not.
Huh?
"Warum Schreiste" means "why are you hollering?"
You speak Yiddish?
Funny, you don't look like you would.
She wasn't complaining, just saying she couldn't get used to the prices.
... oh ...
Bye-bye!
Where did you pick up Yiddish, Suki?
From my Bubbe (GRANDMOTHER). She reminded me of her.
But I see you in church on Sunday--aren't you Christian?
I'm also half Japanese--but always one hundred percent listener.
Speaking of families, how's your dad?
Still having a hard time adjusting. He called a few minutes ago.
I guess his call irrittated me.
Well, chill. Life's a beach, y'know!
Oh, I just stopped to get a smoothie.
Check this board out!
Sweet.
Dad custom ordered it from New Hampshire.
Can I have your speed egg, then?
Sure, if I can have your pink twin fin.
No can do!
I won't part with a classic!
