Japanese exchange student comes to stay with hamily, all they feed her is beetus A week ago or so, a hamily that I do yard work for (gotta make money somehow, being 17) got a Japanese exchange student. Nice girl, slim, pretty, her English isn't great but she's sweet. The mom asked me to come in and talk to her because she thought since I'm Asian I might make her feel "more comfortable". Whatever. So I come inside and talk to her, and we end up going on a walk around the neighborhood together later. She warms up to me when she finds out that I'm an immigrant from Korea. I ask her what's the weirdest thing about America she's seen and she says something along the lines of "so many people are fat, and the food is unhealthy!" Turns out this family of hams has been feeding her nothing but fast food, so she can get a taste of "American culture". I tell her I'm sorry, I had that culture shock when I first got here too, and I gave her my number just in case.  I am so disgusted. This poor girl came to America to get a new experience, something she can go home and tell her family about, and these fat fucks are loading her up with beetus. I haven't spoken to her since, but I hope she's able to get out of that house and get an experience she'll actually enjoy. EDIT: I texted her and asked if she wanted to spend an afternoon with me, she said yes and the hamily didn't mind, probably so they could gorge themselves while she's gone. Anyway. We went to a nice healthy restaurant and she got a chopped salad. She told me that she initially liked the fast food, but after around the fourth unhealthy meal she felt uncomfortable and she said she didn't want to go home to her family having put on weight. I understand 100% because my culture is similar and I was shitlorded by my Korean parents my whole life. She even ended up crying a little bit and saying she was grateful that I understood, because she didn't know how to tell the ham-mom no. I told her, if it's ever getting toomuch for her, text me and I'll take her out again. We have plans to go on a bike ride sometime this week too!
