KAKA: Multiple Meanings

Ok so I really wanted to post this story yesterday but ran out of time. We were on the Trole back to the school and it was super crowded as always. We actually had to wait for 2 Trole`s to pass before we could get on one. Anyway there was this guy in the back with me and my friend Eleanor who had maybe two teeth but was just chatting away with Eleanor. He started to put his hand around her and she moved closer to me when all of sudden he moved right in front of me and started talking about Brasil. That was literally the only think I could understand because he was talking so much and so fast. Then he started saying "Kaka" and Eleanor leaned down and said, "I think that means shit in Spanish." So we thought he was talking about Brasil playing like shit. Then Daniel started paying attention to our conversation (which was this guy talking and me and Eleanor smiling and nodding) and realized this guy was talking about the player `Kaka`from Brazil. I should have known this since I am dating a soccer fanatic. We busted out laughing as this guy took my hand and told me I had beautiful hair and beautful eyes and that no one down here looks like me. Then he rubbed my hand on his cheek and kissed it. I guess if I am going to experience the culture I might as well get up close and personal. It was hysterical and Eleanor and I were still laughing after we got off the bus about the mix up between the meaning of Kaka.
