Weirdest thing happened yesterday…
I was walking back to TD with Caroline and Sana at about 8 pm…and apparently some blonde kid waves hi to me (according to Caroline). Since I have no idea who he is, I didn’t really pay attention to him or acknowledge him, and we all kind of brush it off. One minute later, we’re walking down the same path in cross campus and some black kid approaches me and goes “hey, I saw you this afternoon….”
me: “uhhhmmm”
him: “wait, you’re jia right?”
me: “no….”
So the kid looks embarassed and apologizes and we walk on discussing how non-asian people always think all asian people look alike. Literally 30 seconds later, as we are walking along and discussing this, an asian kid walks up and pokes/shoves me.
Asian kid: “Jia!!”
me: *looks at him weirdly*
Asian kid: *pokes/shoves me again* “Hey Jia!”
me: “are you being serious?”
Asian kid: “wait, you’re not Jia?”
me: “no…who’s Jia?”
Asian kid: “holy crap you look exactly like Jia..Jia Huang”
——————————
So. Moral of the story: there’s a junior at Yale named Jia Huang who apparently looks exactly like me.
Unacceptable!
