I met Kosuke again and we went to an Indian restaurant because I learned that he really liked Indian food. He was really excited when he got there, there a few of us who went together. He even ordered something that wasn't on the menu. He explained that he went to India before and he loves Indian food. He also became good friends with our waiter. The waiter gave him a lot of complements about the Japanese being hard workers and how he respects him. It was very interesting. Some of us ordered Taj Mahal beer that is imported from India. Kosuke ended up ordering one too. This wouldn't matter too much if he didn't tell me that his English gets better after he drinks. I was really curious what drinking would do. After the drink he didn't really speak better English, he just repeated himself A LOT. I did get to find out some other interesting things about him and his family though. He mentioned that his older brother wants to come to the US to study as well. My boyfriend was also one of the people that came along and he mentioned that in Korea there is no future for what he wants to do. It seems that outsourcing of ideas is still occurring a lot. Very many others abroad believe that studying in the United States and Britain is very important for their future. It is a little sad to think that so many people are coming here and leaving their country because there are still great things about the other country. The home country and the US are always so hard to compare. They can't really be compared, I go through the same thing as a foreigner, I can't really compare Romania to the US, it's just so different.
Lastly we were at the Indian restaurant so that Kosuke practices his English speaking since he did not want paperwork, he wanted to become more comfortable speaking as a Japanese student coming to study here.
