In Korea, I'm a star!

This is what I've missed... just had one of those moments that I've missed while spending time in America. In America- everyone knows someone that I look like or remind them of... not a bad thing- apparently there are many "me's". But in Korea- I'm a star!

I was walking home from the grocery store (yep, I walk EVERYWHERE) and a little boy just got off of his bus, most likely coming home from his English Hagwon (private school). He saw my face and stopped dead in his tracks just to make sure to say "Hello!" Meanwhile, he almost got ran over by the guy on the bike coming from the other way. I don't enjoy the fact that there have been times that people have ran into poles or almost got into car accidents because they find the need to stare at me... but I do like being a star!

A message to Korea, please be careful when you stare! Remember that there is still a world going on around you ;-)

  1. That is fantastic! Maybe you should carry around pictures of yourself and make some $$$ off autographs. ;)
