Just right now, an unexpected phone call had interrupted my work. I was just in coding when my phone rang up, and then I picked up the phone spontaneously. At that time I didn't realize that the phone call came from Canada. So I answered the phone in Chinese. The caller in the phone began to speak English with me. Suddenly, I was shocked as I'd never had a phone call come overseas. I even forgot how to say hello to the other side. The girl who called me must have thought me a rude and impolite guy. Very embarrassed! I need to watch more US movies or TV plays to get more sensitive to English.

The way you wrote this blog shows that your Eglish is not that bad. Might be, You were emotional and nervous - when you received a call from a girl, and could not respond.
Hehe, learning and waiting for next call :D I bet you will do it well next time ^_^
She would surely think like that, Rick! Language barrier is indeed a great problem between foreigners especially if your intention is to have a harmonious relationship with them.
Well, it's not too late yet. I think it will not be hard for you since the way you wrote this blog is indeed very impressive. What you have to improve is your speaking skill as this may be your greatest problem.
You'll be better prepared after this, I'm sure.
It had happened to me too.I know your feeling.
