so this one time

on a scale from not funny to hilarious (1-10) this following story is going to be about a 3. so just a disclaimer.

anyway, recently i thought about what happened during the week of my freshman orientation at sfsu when i was staying in belmont with my aunt and uncle. my uncle is really into astronomy as one of his many hobbies; he volunteers in high schools and teaches the students there the astronomy unit for them, and has volunteered for nasa in the past. he is also the president of the san mateo astronomy club and they have star parties at the local community college where a state-of-the-art observatory was built a few years ago. the week i was up he brought me to one of his club's monthly meetings where a well-known physicist was speaking. my uncle on my dad's side is really cool, highly resourceful, and immensely intelligent, and is also the only caucasian in an all chinese-american family. his club buddies would come up to us, where my uncle had set up his telescope that he brought along because jupiter was in view at the time. i was standing right next to him and my uncle would introduce me as his niece and initially every person had this look of confusion and didn't know where to look or who's hand to shake. how does a white guy have an asian niece?

he has an asian wife, duh.
