相棒

I have a part-time job a few hours a week helping people with pronunciation. It's a class with English and Chinese, so I have a Chinese-speaking counterpart. She dressed up in yukata (light cotton summer kimono) and when I asked her to send me a picture she was showing me, she demanded to send the rest.



So, here they are.



The two on the right are examples of what the Japanese call purikura ("picture club"), which is a popular thing that girls make guys do, regardless of whether they're going out - these two are, by the way.



It's a testament to my unpopularity that I haven't done any, but you won't see me complaining! I think all of you know which side of the lens I prefer to be on.



Guesses on her age and nationality?

Ah, I like to play your guessing games, but ages and nationalities are something I'm going to stay out of...

No one ever guesses my age correctly, and I'm just about the same on guessing anyone else's. Don't ask me about weight either! Though I was really glad when this lady at work guessed my weight at about 27 pounds less than what it actually is! Now that was nice. :)

I'm going to take a shot, though the shots are way too small on my 1680x1050 laptop monitor.

Korean, 21?

Since nobody else is going to guess, I guess...
Anyway, she's 26 and Chinese. Koreans tend to look more Japanese, as they've interbred for the past forever. She looks hotter than normal in those pictures, though, because she just had a perm and she's wearing a very nice yukata.

Well, I would have guessed the Chinese correctly,but I think you said it in your post. I would have been off on the age, but as I mentioned I never get that right.
