English Speakers

Every time, without fail, whenever I hear someone speaking English I immediately look up from what I am doing to see who it is. My eyes open wide. My heartbeat quickens. And then I realize I don't know them. But the sound is enough.

I don't feel out of place here. I don't feel like an outsider really. I mean I don't realize/remember everyone is here is Korean and I, well I am not. I guess I just don't feel any different, or like I stand out here until I see/hear another non Korean.
