Saturday, October 19

at my parent's store:

i'm talking with my parents, when a middle aged korean couple drops by. my parents apparently knew them. they greeted the couple, and then introduced them to me.

the ah juh shi looks me up and down, and positions himself into a shoulder width stance, ready to bust out his impressive english.

nodding his head, he throws two thumbs up and with a broad smile, says, "you have good body, eh?"

i couldn't help it. i started to laugh. i know he meant, oh, what a handsome kid or something like that. but boy-oh-boy did it come out all wrong. if it were only the words, i think i could've suppressed it. but it was that plus the stance, the grin, and the 2 thumbs up that did me in.

why is life so funny? just when things are getting really serious, something like this comes around. hehe.
or, scary thought: maybe he was SERIOUS. eeeekkk.
