It is very common to meet many local people on the journey to chat with you. In particular, when I was waiting for the bus, I was watching my bus coming the other day and chatting with my friends on line. Because I was just waiting for the bus in front of a university, a white student directly stood beside me, and then said at the beginning that I liked the dress you wore, and then Nice to meet you

So I was too embarrassed to ignore him, so I had to let him introduce his background, and then said, he suddenly asked me if I was a student, only 25 years old? At this time, I felt not comfortable and juts told him that age was a girl's secret.

旅途裡不免俗地會遇到很多在地人找你聊天,特別多的場合就是在等公車的時候,前兩天我正痴痴望著我的公車到來,順便一邊和朋友用line聊天,因為我剛好在一個大學前等公車,結果一個白人學生就直接站在我旁邊,然後一開頭就說我很喜歡你穿的這件衣服,接著就Nice to meet you了…

於是我也不好意思不理他,只好任由他介紹了一下他的背景,然後說著說著,他忽然問我是不是也是學生,年紀只有25? 這時候心虛的我,只好和他說年紀是女生的秘密XD,不過他本人確實只有25…

He was also honest and said that they could not understand the age of Asians. Some of them looked very young, but in fact they were not. This reminded me of the story of "Asia Magic".

When my friend went to a bar to have fun, the clerk also looked at his ID for a long time, and thought he looked like a minor in any way. Then my friend said to the clerk, "Asia Magic"

But in fact, I am also very confused about the age of foreigners. In addition, I could not recognize faces very well. I often confuse foreigners I have seen, so it is normal for foreigners to be confused about the age of Asians

他也很誠實說到,他們一直弄不懂亞洲人的年紀,有些看起來明明很年輕,但其實不然,這讓我想起了「Asia Magic」的故事。
話說有次我朋友去酒吧玩的時候,店員也是拿著他們的ID看了很久,覺得他們怎麼看都像未成年,然後我的朋友就和店員說,這就是「Asia Magic」….

但其實我也是很分不清外國人的年紀,加上我還有點臉盲症,經常把看過的外國人給弄混,所以外國人弄不清亞洲人的年紀還是很正常的….
