" Oh, hey! Are you Indian?' inquired a voice and a pointing finger from within the crowd of people. At first, it didn't register in my mind that anyone could possibly be talking to me, but after looking around for a second or two I realized 'Oh, duhhh....she's talking to me' I was the only 'Indian' within a five mile radius of where the voice was coming from.
'Um, yeah......'I said somewhat hesitantly, not because I was unsure of my own ethnicity but becasue I was in complete shock at how I had been approached.
'God...Am I crazy? Or does this sort of thing happen to everyone at college?'- I thought as we introduced ourselves and talked about the same old, same old -classes, where we were from, majors, etc....
Anyway, suffice to say I ended up exchanging numbers with the girl and agreeing to hang out the next day.
I don't know if any of you find this 'experience' weird...but I def did. I have to say I have never gone up to anyone, much less someone I didn't know, and ask 'oh, hey are you caucasian?' or 'oh, hey are you black?'
Anyway, any input anyone has at this point and time would be great.
