This morning I went to 7-Eleven to buy some popcorn. It's nice since they pop the popcorn for you. It was really busy since I went during the lunchtime but I waited to get my bag of popcorn popped. I noticed it wasn't as full but I figured it was just the bag. I went home and opened the bag only to find out that only about 1/3 of the bag was popped. There was barely any popcorn in the bag. Urgh..but it's okay since the guy was busy and I went during lunchtime. I just know now that I won't go around that time or I will make sure that it's popped all the way through.
When I was walking to work this afternoon, I was crossing this major intersection when all of a sudden I saw this lady's credit card fall out of her purse without her knowing she dropped it. I picked it up and called after her "miss" in Chinese but she was running. I was thinking to myself, "What the heck? Why are you running?!" I ran after her and she was getting in the backseat of a car when I yelled again and held the door and gave her the credit card and told her she dropped it. She looked at me strangely and asked me why I was following her. She was with other people in the car and they were laughing. I don't even think she said thank you since she just took it from me and looked at me weirdly. It's like ok, thanks? I just helped you from having your credit card stolen and ran over by tons of cars. I'm sure it was weird that I chased her but she wasn't even nice that I gave her the card nor was she happy. It actually seemed like she purposely wanted to drop it in the street.
Then later after work I was walking to the MRT subway station when this lady went up to me and said my bag was cute and she wanted to know where I got it from. It's the same bag that I bought from Michelle Gin that received compliments from other people. I told her I'm from America and I got it there. She was with her friends and she was bummed but said thanks. I thought that was really nice of her to compliment me. So yeah, I encounter many different kinds of Taiwanese people today.
