Yesterday as I waited in Dhaka at the Airport Rail Station to get on the Ekota Express for Mymensingh, a chanachur wallah spotted me. Usually he would yell, "chanachur-chanachur" in the funny way that wallahs yell. After he saw me, he yelled, "chinese-chanachur."
Today as I walked to my flat to get papers that stated that I could legally reside in Mymensingh for the official waiting in my office, a teenage boy said, "chinese-japanese" as he passed me.

Haha! I can't believe that twice in the last two days you've been mistaken for an Asian. Hey, at least you don't need worry about people who are anti-American when they're mistaking you for being from a different continent.
Hmm...I've never thought you looked Chinese.
I love the wedding pictures also!
