i just had such a rich dream

so, sup.
okay after class today i was like "yo i need a nap" especially since i didn't get home from studio until 3:30. and this is what happened:

so my GSI (but i think they only call them that in Berkeley...you know, a T.A.) for my studio class was taking us on a field trip to look at these dolphins. and we went into this one man's backyard, which was set up like a shamu stadium...so legitimate. and then we entered this pool of water and out came these two dolphins. and they were so different. one was like furry and blue-grey and had a short nose and had the letter "C" carved into its side. and the other one was smaller and light grey and really rather forgettable. anyway, our class was talking and there was this one guy who's last name is "Wong," so i had always pronounced it as "wong." but everyone was giving me uneasy looks and i was like "heh?" and then finally this man who's family name is the subject was like "i'm sorry, please stop. my last name is not pronounced 'wong,' it's pronounced 'huh-win'" so i'm like 'ope. my bad' but he goes on to explain how it's highly offensive that i didn't know how to pronounce his last name because there are two different kind of Wongs in the world...those that pronounce it "wong"...and they the good ones. and the "huh-wins" who are like savage people who hop on clouds....
BIZARRRE!



bottom line, get some sleep.
and consider this strange story my attempt to re-enter to blogosphere.

OUTTIEZ.
