午饭
午饭
上午公干完了之后,跑去学校门口的药店添置美容用品,购得货物价值41刀,满怀着美容的希望返回实验室,并决定于路边流动午餐车里购买午饭---食堂的饭越来越贵,越来越不好吃了。路边上停了两辆车,我本着不去没人的馆子吃饭的原则,挑了个队长的车等着。一边研究贴在车身上的菜单,发现roti似乎是这辆车的拿手菜。然后,卖roti的黑大妈越过付完钱的站在窗口前的顾客,朝后排喊话道:young lady, 你要什么?我一指我自己鼻子说:我?结果站在我前面那个有40岁的young lady答话了,我跟那儿不好意思一下儿,继续等。一分钟就到我了,黑大妈招呼我说:蜂蜜,你要什么?这个黑大妈头上缠着碎花布,态度骄傲但是不傲慢,一看就觉得她是自己世界的主人。然后我就问她说:roti是什么呀?她说:就是特大号的gyro,给你看。说着拖起来一个大包裹的面皮子给我看。我点头说:好,就要个鱼和菠菜的roti。黑大妈扭头就去做那个roti,三几下儿就裹好了。拿锡纸包的时候,问我说:你丛哪里来的?我说:中国。她点点头,说道:你知道,好多中国人在我这里买午饭,都要这个。这个和什么什么(没听清楚)加白米饭。我说:是嘛!心想:我给归类了。她从头顶上特潇洒的chua的一声扯下来一个棕色纸口袋,问我说:要水还是ginger ale。我说:水。她肯定的一点头,我都听的见她在心里说:不出所料。哗的一下子,纸口待递过来,说:五刀。我付了钱,满怀着当了回典型中国人的骄傲和迷惑就回了实验室。这个号称鱼的roti其实原料是鱼松,味道还不错,中间夹了一层不知名粉末,不难吃。就是真大,我使劲儿吃使劲儿吃都没有吃完,还剩下半个,明天中午有饭了。

hehe. she sounds great.
on a related note, i always resent ever so slightly strangers (i should add "non-chinese") asking me where i'm from, often with the modifier "originally." i also feel compelled to be as vague as possible when strangers ask me about what i do, etc. my SO, on the other hand, happily dishes out information about himself. that just weirds me out.

Now that happy moment between the time the lie is told and when it is found out.
