I know I'm being {at least slightly} racist when I say this, but it never ceases to amaze me when I see a Caucasian speaking an Asian language.

I suppose growing up in somewhat small towns, the ignorances of anything Asian is a bit overbearing, hence my occasional surprises.

Not to mention the fact that this one female middle-schooler on my bus, who apparently had never heard us converse with anyone before, was so surprised at the fact that we could speak English.
