When I came back from work yesterday, I realized I was out of wine. I realized because as soon as i stepped in, my Chinese girlfriend didn't prepare my cafe latte with a hint of cinnamon and cocoa. I told her she broke our routine and made a disapointed face. She started to be mad so of course I went to open a bottle of wine but Oh the horror! Where has the wine gone? It was nowhere to be found. So one two, one two I proposed we go buy lot of wine. She was still mad but it somehow calmed her a little.

We arrived at store, and to be sure the situation wouldn't happen again, I bought a big crate of wine. The thing is I was very tired because I had a long day at work - one of the intern had a breakup and wouldn't work well (it's hard to manage unproductive employees!) so I had to explain to her why she was doing terrible job today - so of course it was my Chinese girlfriend duty to carry the crate of wine on the way back home. It wasn't that heavy, just a dozen bottles (you're never too sure you have enough!).

But on the way back, a lot of people stared at me with a disapproval look. I tried to smile at them as much as I could, but they wouldn't take away that look. That was quite a cultural shock to me, because back in Montana, 'Merica, Baylee-Ann - she was like a sister to me, would always give me peck on the torso - would always carry the big stuff and everybody we were passing by would thumb me up, high five me or say "you the man, DuFion!"

So how can I change people stare at me? Next time, should i put on my Simba's sunglasses as to avoid eye contact?
