Definitely find that Asian market! Most big cities have them. Your namecard lists you as local to PA; I have a Japanese friend from there, I could ask him, if you need any recommendations! Otherwise, it sounds like you're on the right track. #missesasianfoodmostaboutbeinghome

Be a little gentle. While I do find it a little perplexing, and I do enjoy a good joke, this person I could honestly see being a foreigner. I used to work overseas, and a lot of the "kids" I worked with would use google translate to help them convey ideas. Not totally here, but it ALMOST sounds like what's going on here. Just a little devil's advocate.~

I come from a small, small town, but I find I've always loved to travel. Have not been to TOO many places...I've traveled in the northeast US, been to Niagara Falls, out west to Missouri and Cali, and down in the south, to Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and South Carolina. My places abroad, I lived in Oxford, England and South Korea. While in Asia, I got to visit China (Harbin and Beijing), Cambodia, Thailand, and Bali. When I go someplace, I like to immerse myself, to be as "local" as I can. That's what I recommend. I often get told I don't act like a normal American, because I'm so quiet. So maybe I'm weird. But it's made my travels the most incredibly fulfilling experiences, getting to see life through the eyes of native peoples...taking it all in...{shrug} I'd highly recommend. :-)

Good GRIEF!!!! Thank goodness for a little levity from Wyatt's torch...Dear LORD, one is enough, people!

I will be 28, when I start my Masters! 6 years after finishing my undergrad...I don't regret the work and experiences thus far, I do think it helped bolster my application...But I still can't believe it's been this long.

Thank you, Zephyri.~ When this post didn't get any response, I figured I would go ahead and brave it, but it helps bolster me to hear this.~ Thanks so much~

^^ Anytime. I just get SO excited for all these great opportunities I hear coming everyone's respective ways. I hope I didn't sound like I was chastising you. I just did think maybe you were a little saddened.^^ Also! Forgive my egregious typos! Dear LORD, smart-phone!! Catch some mistakes!!! {embarrassed face}

I had just come home, after a LONG day at work, and was busily trying to multi-task between opening packages from the mail, texting my friend, and cooking a quick dinner. When I found a spare moment to check my email quickly (on my phone), and I saw that name. I knew that name. That's one of my grad program names. Contacting me directly. {to self} "Steel yourself." And the rest is history.*^^*

Congrats, yet again! And, hey! you got an interview with ND, so...though not direct-to-PhD track ok most of these, that's got to boodt your ego! ;-) I do not think, in the slightest, this is a negative thing at all!
