Chusok dinner
Nov. 23rd, 2003 09:32 pmAd Mundo Exteriore,
Well, I was right. Great Korean food is more than enough to make up for the incredible social awkwardness of being with the Korean Association. The kalbi was excellent, and I ate kimchi even after I ran out of rice. Oh...I miss Korean food so much...
I sat alone for the most part excepting the moments when certain people felt the need to take pity on me and attempt the generic forms of small talk. Normally, that would have made me feel rather self-conscious, but I was too absorbed in the good food to care. Oh, and I didn't have to walk back alone because I caught that girl that looks kind of like oniichan from the back (they have the same hairstyle and the same walk), and so I was able to return to the Yard safely. Another generic boring conversation, however. Mother doesn't believe me, but it's very true that the only type of Koreans that I would get along with are precisely the ones that would never turn up at these kinds of events. I wouldn't go to them myself, if it weren't for the food. I'm such a leech. ^_^
I really should get some work done. I really, really should get some work done. >_>
