Today I went and sat at Starbucks before my Chinese class. I halted the conversation of the men sitting by me, who continually chatted then stopped and stared. I caught them four times and then just ignored them because it was awkward. Then a lady and her companion shot glances at me, over the backs of their chairs!
Listen, people, Starbucks is MY place. I'm from Washington and I love coffee and I should be able to sit and study without being a freak.
I'm beginning to suspect it is because I was wearing a hat. It is still "too warm" for hats in China. You shouldn't be wearing one yet, I guess. My colleagues said something as did my kindergarten kiddies. Whoops. I was inadvertently a super weirdo in China today.
Either that, or I really am a super hot goddess woman.
