My life. This is what I've become.

I was going shopping for my brother's birthday. It's tomorrow, so I decided I would get him some betta fish. (it's blue and has a bit of red on the fins, and it's a regular male) and this little tikki thing that looks like it's from Spongebob since he's an obsessed second grader. BUT HE LIKES THE REGULAR SHOW, THE AMAZING WORLD OF GUMBALL, AND ADVENTURE TIME SO I LET HIM PASS.

 

Anyways, they were building this new auto-body/carwash/hookup place near a mall that was on the way to the plaza we were heading to. (The plaza had PetSmart and Stop&Shop so we went there.)

 

The car place had a sign that said, "COMING SOON" or some cabbage like that. And then it had some long-flippity phrase after it in spanish.

 

My dad tried reading it out loud in the car as we passed it, and I immediately started translating it while I looked out the window waiting for the light to change. It only took me three seconds to fully understand the whole thing and say it in english. My dad was giving me a 'wtf' look.

 

 

 

I WAS THE ONLY ONE IN THE CAR WHO WAS ABLE TO UNDERSTAND IT.

D:

 

 

THIS IS WHAT MY LIFE HAS BECOME, BEING THE FREAK IN MY WHITE (and one asian mother) FAMILY WHO UNDERSTAND SPANISH AND SPEAKS IT WELL, AND WAS ABLE TO HOLD A CONVERSATION WITH THE FOREIGN EMPOLYEE FROM MEXICO WHILE SHE FIXED THE BOTTLE RETURN MACHINE WHILE MY DAD STOOD THERE AWKWARDLY WITH THREE BAGS OF EMPTY CANS AND WATER BOTTLES.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm officially the most pathetic human being on earth.

This is how bystanders stare at me when I talk in chinese to the people that work in Sarku (Sarku? The Asian place in the food court in the mall.) while ordering my food. And it's hot my parents look at me when I talk in English to people we're doing business with.

Asian mother, Chinese? Viet? Jap? Korean?
