Inconceivable!

There are definite benefits to looking young but these days it is just absurd.

Take yesterday for example. I went to a korean market for grocery shopping. I was getting some marinated short ribs and the lady gave me extra meat by not giving me the bone part (which weighs more as it is by pound), then after she weighed it she added another piece for good measure.

I thanked her for her generosity and she asked if I was living by myself and if I was a foreign student (as in if I came to study from Korea.) I told her I am living by myself but that I was not a foreign student.

This means that she saw me as either a college student or a graduate student at most, but a student nonetheless. Yikes! Seriously, I'm 34 not 24 no matter how young I look... that is just absurd!
