And also in my age stage, I can make friends very easy. But I don’t really want to make friends with the customers. They respect me a lot and I don’t think this is very real or something. They always want to make me happy and that’s not real and not true. I can treat them for dinner or some gifts. Ashley is very busy because she works 5 days a week and I am day off every wednesday and sunday, and ashley day off every tuesday and… so we are separate so we don’t have much time to get together. And she is so young. Our targets are different. Ashley wants a good relationship to stay with her bf and she wnats to stay in australia. She wants to get PR but that’s not my target. My target is another things. Also Ashley is younger than me 6, 7 years, sometimes our mentalities are different.
