Today I taught my class in CIES during lunchtime. I had asked my ITA Wangsuk if he would like to come to my class and he did. The class went well but I had not eaten so after I asked Wangsuk if he would like to get lunch with me. At first I insisted that we could go wherever he wanted but Wangsuk is very polite and made me choose. I asked if he liked American-Mexican food such as burritos and he said yes so I suggested Tijuana Flats. He told me that he had never been there so I felt as if I was showing him something new. Tijuana Flats is a chain but I think it is one of the better ones out there. When we got there I helped him order and we sat down. The handball semi-final game happened to be on between South Korea and Norway. Since Wangsuk is from South Korea we watched it together. Unfortunately, South Korea did not win but it was still fun to watch. Wangsuk really enjoyed the food, we both got burritos with chips. We talked a lot about other cities in America and how he is applying for many different schools for a PhD program. He asked me what cities I would like to live in and he had actually applied for some schools in the cities that I said. After we left the restaurant we stopped at publix and then came back to campus. Wangsuk had to go to the library to work on his thesis so we said that we would talk later. We may go to a pub later tonight.
