Korean girls can wear shirts and call it a dress. They will wear shorts and heels and that's ok. They can prance all over the earth in the shortest skirts known to humankind and that's fine. They can wear off the shoulder, open necked shirts. They can even wear tank tops, but only if coupled with longer pants. BUT the second I step out of my apartment wearing a very modest tank top and shorts, on the hottest day so far, I get yelled at by all the old women. REALLY? And I don't care what logic you feel like you want to share with me about this. But I will tell you this. I turned around and went home, put on a big baggy shirt, with the same shorts again, and went out and no one even gave me a second glance. And I passed by many girls wearing MUCH less than me. KOREA stop holding me to your double standard!!
Its upsetting. I am going to spend the whole summer being awkward in my own skin. I am not excited about this.
And another thing. Just because I don't look like you, doesn't give you the right to talk to me endlessly. I was sitting in McDonalds the other day, eating some fries and noticed there was a lady standing off to the side, just talking to me. On and on and on. I clearly am not responding. I shook my head and said no. She came closer, yap yap yap. This happens a lot. Maybe next time I will just get up and stand OVER her and talk in English, on and on and see how she likes it. Seriously making me mad.
That's it for the moment. =)
