I followed my friends to where they were sitting and they pushed me to hurry up buy a ticket. It was mostly the Taiwanese kids and the other American girl, who was wearing her red trench-coat, as usual. We walked over to buy tickets together and I asked her what the movie was.
"Ha, Ha, Ha," she said.
"Oh, the Looney Toons one?" I asked.
"Yes. I think so."
"Well, either way it's a kid's movie. It looks like they only show children's movies on this screen."
"I guess I'm not gonna go. I can't really handle children's movies. I mean, we have a dollar theater back home, so maybe I would spend a dollar for it. But I really can't --"
I realized she wasn't listening to me so I stopped talking.
She asked me to take pictures of her holding the umbrella, but I was having a hard time. It was a very big, expensive looking camera and I was very afraid of dropping it.
"I don't see you in the pictures I've been taking," I said.
"Look in the viewfinder."
"Oh."
She was flying in and out of the viewfinder, though, the camera wouldn't let her stay. It made me very frustrated and dizzy.
I handed her back the camera, "Sorry," I said.
I walked outside where a group of my guy friends were sitting drinking. I sat down and someone who I knew must be a student but whom I've never seen before came out and started speaking Korean, better than I had expected.
