Things the Boy Says

After hearing he and his colleagues sent an aggressive complaint letter to a burritos restaurant upon a smaller-thank-usual lunch delivery, I said, sounds like a jerky thing to do over burritos. His response:

"Jerks, aka brokers, do things like that."

(Then I asked if he was proud of his profession, to which he replied, No.)



After I told him I was getting tired of working with Japanese people because they are weird and didn't make any sense.

"So they are exactly like you."

Am I making him sound like a jerk?? Maybe I'll post some sweet stories soon, to balance...

Hah! I guess we all have our weirdnesses.

I have an inkling you know the 26 year old... or you are a stalker... or a friend?? But anyway hope you are not the stalker and you continue to enjoy :)

It's not the nationality, it's the person.

But for people belonging to more than one nation, it does take time and observation, and gradually really knowing yourself, to find where you belong, most suitably to your own taste. It may be both nations,it may not. Takes time, takes experience, takes caring about your own life and well-being.

So I believe.
