I loved the writing, in particular this line, but the whole piece was strangely endearing:

     I asked if he was Canadian. He wasn't. The end

I loved it too. I audibly laughed at this one:

"Korean girl Short I didn't know how to start a conversation with her, so I just asked if she was Korean and she said yes. Then I made her guess what kind of Asian I am. Then I rambled about being Asian in Syracuse before leaving. I initiated one more conversation but now we don't interact"

So endearing!

You can easily continue this into a conversation, FYI: "Oh, lol - you did X, and I knew another Canadian who did X, so I thought that might be a Canadian thing. Where are you from then?"
