Random stories

Ok over the weekend I learned how to use RSS. I'm not the best person when it comes to new technology. I'm really old school and do things the old way. Seriously, I wouldn't mind if I had to do everything still in dos. So Jonathon opened my eyes to such advanced program and now I'm subscribing to all the blogs you guys write on. Wahoo.



So I was at the gym the other day and I saw this on CNN. This just shows that really no one can be trusted.

Finally yesterday, a female sergeant moderately attractive, who I barely know since she's from the 8-06 class and I'm in the 8-01 class, decided to sit next to me at dinner. She saw I had difficulty chewing and she asked me what was wrong. I told her I burned the roof of my mouth eating something hot. Well then she asks me if I burnt it on pho. I told her, how can you assume I burnt it on pho or better yet, I even eat that? She gave me some bogus response like, oh I dunno I usually burn my tongue on that. So of course she got defensive because she's white and she thinks I'm assuming she doesn't know much about vietnamese food which is true. And so she's trying to tell me she knows about vietnamese food more than I do. Now, I may not know much about vietnamese or chinese or whoever, but I sure know much more about it than her. So she could see I was a little upset. So she also took this time to counsel me on my anger issues. She told me she saw me get upset and thought I had major anger problems. Of course, I first had to tell her, look, it's part of my culture. It's called Korean rage. Then she begins to tell me how she used to have anger problems too. And she began to tell me all sorts of idioms which I do not understand because my eyes are slanted. I just smiled and nodded because I was told she used to work in BAMC(san antonio). And I asked her about it and such and she told me it's really good. So knowing that, I'm really hoping I get San Antonio. Geez and I also got a free anger management class too.
