cultural differences

it's really interesting when you see a cultural difference play out infront of you.

we had two comm468 alumni come speak to us in class the other day, and as a gesture of appreciation for the advice our professor had given them throughout their venture, they presented her with a gift at the end of their lecture. firstly, they handed it to her with one hand; secondly, she opened the gift in front of the class; and thirdly, it was a clock (no doubt a tiffany's one though).

the shooter turns out to be a south korean. and his dad and mum both tried to kill themselves upon hearing the news - dad died, while mum is in the hospital.

this is triple tragedy.
