Did I tell you about the woman who bowed to me?

She was Asian of course (only Asians bow, right?), and after answering a very simple question she had ("Where is the bathroom?", I was at work of course), she made a very slight bow. Last year, as in a year ago, in my Interpersonal Communications class an Asian girl talked about how there were different types of bowing (about how far the bow went in regards to how much respect was to be showed) and it was incredibly interesting because it's something we all know (Asians bow) but I had no idea different degrees actually had different meanings. So I was bowed to last night and it was definitely and experience and this is the type of thing that happens to me and then I feel like writing about even though I haven't written in months, longest absence ever.
