I miss when I could read YunJae fic without homework in the back of my mind. Irresponsibility had its perks in high school!
Anyone have any reccs? :(
EDIT: I find this funny b/c I'm a twisted little bastard:

Rebranding the U.S. With Obama
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
The other day I had a conversation with a Beijing friend and I mentioned that Barack Obama was leading in the presidential race:
She: Obama? But he's the black man, isn't he?
Me: Yes, exactly.
She: But surely a black man couldn't become president of the United States?
Me: It looks as if he'll be elected.
She: But president? That's such an important job! In America, I thought blacks were janitors and laborers. (LOL)
Me: No, blacks have all kinds of jobs.
She: What do white people think about that, about getting a black president? Are they upset? Are they angry?
Me: No, of course not! If Obama is elected, it'll be because white people voted for him.
[Long pause.]
She: Really? Unbelievable! What an amazing country!
