Literally? Blood, squishy bits and other assorted fleshy goodness, I've found...
With the right frame of mind, therefore, it's not what you're made of, it's what everybody else is, and how quickly you can get the bloodstains out of the carpet.
and how quickly you can get the bloodstains out of the carpet. You ought to just save the cleaning bill and whack 'em out in the yard. Tsk tsk. You must *learn*.
"Nuclear astrophysics with a minor in ethnographic cartography." At least they won't be able to pretend to know what you're talking about. Or 'Harvard - I saw it in Legally Blond.'
I say that my Asian parents don't know how to love their children, but that would be ethnocentric and culturally insensitive of me.
Only if you think it's being Asian that stops them from loving you effectively, and not their personalities/etc. But I'm too befuddled by antihistamines to talk about something serious, so I'll stop now. BTW, where are you going to college?
I say that my Asian parents don't know how to love their children, but that would be ethnocentric and culturally insensitive of me.' This is the weirdest concern ever, coming from someone who is actually *in Asia*. People over here say that all the time, and everyone else just laughs and makes fun of them for failing the physics midterm, or whatever.
So maybe we're just insensitive in general... *muses*
Not really, actually. I may be Asian living in Asia but I live in an expat bubble. My peers and teachers at the international school mostly comprise of Westernized third-culture kind of people. We reckon about a third of the faculty were former hippies or something. We are being taught from a distinctly non-Asian* perspective, and sometimes it causes a typical case of "parents were raised differently so they have difficulty understanding what it's like growing up these days". Sometimes even when I'm passing judgment on my own culture or country, I'm not sure where I'm coming from. I don't know how "Asian" I am or am not.
So maybe we're just insensitive in general... *muses* And there's also that.
*So, apologies to anyone reading this who is offended by this kinda rude generalization.
