One word. .

:D

Lol I was laughing so hard...

I probably shouldn't laugh or something...but I am.

Disturbingly enough, more than 90% is true. Except for the whole being a smart, quiet, mousy Asian...yeah...

:D

Nice guide by the way. XD

haha omb! it was true for me about 95% :D one time, i was about to cook some eggs nd i opened the butter container nd my eyes nearly popped outta my eyes. there was some kinda junk in there nd i was like, wtf? hehe

Oh I remember that bowl cut! She didn't do it herself though, I went to a salon to get THAT cut! It's wrong! Anyways, by third grade, I had to starve myself to let her know I was being serious about letting my hair grow. And now? Well, she wanted me to let it grow down to my butt, but I kept it just mid-waist. She always complains when I get a haircut. -_-;; Oh yea, she totally freaked out when I started using "makeup", which is a lip gloss by the way.

so silly...

this is why whenever i get below an A on something, i rip the paper into tiny tiny shreds, throw it away, and pretend it never happened.

so when my mom asks, i'll just blame the teacher...

or if she's looking through my trash can, she won't be able to tell that i actually DID get that B on my last test and no, it wasn't my teacher's fault

omfg! lol im asian.. and i can tell you this is so true.. lol especially about the weird contents in random containers and good grades..

if i get an a in a class.. my moms like "eh not good enough! try harder to get an A!" seriously.. not even a "good job"

i'm asian ) southeast asia malaysian though not living there anymore and i lo-ve your essay to bits. mainly because a large portion of it applies to me & family.

)

you are smart. im asian too, and i can say about 96% of this applies to me and my family -_-;; lol, im chinese, cambodian and vietnamese ;; and yes, i accidently start yelling at friends in chinese when im frustrated XD lol

lol, this is funny! I'm faving this! :)

Viet life.

Oh my God. I love you. I'm Indian and more than 90% of these things apply to my family too so this was just the funniest thing ever.

heh. I'm Azn too (Chinese) The way you portray the parents are perfect. When I say I have asian parents, my asian friends laugh, while the white kids just have a blank stare. As for me...well, I'm more or less the opposite of this essay

Hahah. So funny and so true! I'm Turkish - so I'd wouldn't be considered oriental Asian, but I'm Asian nonetheless.

Mostly everthing here applies to me as well. Except for the chopstick thing of course - Even though I do eat everything with chopsticks. Ah. You summed everything up so nicely. Complete and basically true.

So true... I open a bottle of coke... and OHMIGOD! what do i find? Fish sauce... *sigh* and i almost drank it... my mom did the same, except she accidently DID drink it. *shudder* being asian is hard.. . lol ...PS: im asian TOO! *highfive anyone*
