AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE MY OWN THREAD?

So I was really sick. Miserably sick, actually. Wasn't able to make a class in December, so I decided I would go to LACMA. I noticed that there is a Korean exhibit there, although quite small in comparison to the other Chinese exhibit in the next building, which takes up at least 2 floors. It seems funny to me that I grew up looking at the furniture that was in the museum, in my own families homes. I actually have 2 family heirloom piece chests that were imported from South Korea with my grandmother immigrated to America with my mother and father. It seems funny to me because these things are just common things that don't seem really special or significant and yet, I see them in a museum.

It's like walking into an American person's home with a Feng Shui garden and Chinese writing on parchment paper hanging in their living room. It seems all very funny to me because I don't really see too many Asians that have their own Feng Shui gardens (Chinese) and Chinese parchment writings. I think that it's really an American novelty to have something foreign to them. I wonder what an American would feel like walking into a Chinese or Korean person's home and seeing Western Cowboy art on the walls and Native American decorations all around.

Just a thought.
