Asian-Invasion
Since I moved into my current building, I have been innundated with the Asian lifestyle. 95% of the people that live here are international students, and they are all Asian.
This in turn means lots of Asian kids running around (it's graduate student housing, so families welcome), the waft of noodles and stir-fry (maybe even a little cat), and lots of conversations I can't understand in a tongue that is not of the romance-language genre.
In addition to the kids running around, they are also screaming in the above-mentioned language. Not pleasant.
But the best part about this whole experience was a website that was introduced to me by a fellow non-Asian in our building. www.engrish.com. Fucking funny. So much of it applies to the people I see everyday.
There was a guy in the hall the other day that was on the phone and he kept saying "herro? herro?" over and over. I giggled my mutha-fuckin' ass off.
I'm not a racist, I'm a minority. Where's my equal-opportunity employment?
