Hey Jen,

Glad to hear that you're settling in just fine. Sorry to hear about your rotten roomie though. Is she just being anti-social/stand-offish because she doesn't know anybody, or is really just plain rude? Whatever the case, I hope that smoothes out for you.

As for my past experiences (with the bike, among other things), I know I can't completely blame my parents. I have to love and respect them (not only because it's "Asian" familial obligation/the right thing to do, but, because they do work their asses off and have endured a lot to get me where I am today). For that, I truly am grateful (despite, all the pent up resentment/hatred). Plus, through all the "tough love" (I'm not even sure if you can even call it that), it has made me a stronger person, as cliche as they may all sound.

I really do believe that all the conflicts and misunderstandings do stem from the cultural barriers that you mention; ergo,part of the reason why I started my blog (and hope to turn it into a Directed Study for school)- the Asian-American Identity and Anxieties. I love and respect my parents, but, at the same time, can't help, but, to think "Oh I wish they would've let me done/taught me this.."/"Oh, I wish they loved me like the conventional "American" family/"Why do they do this and don't do that...". With all the words that have been said that shouldn't have ever been spoken, and all the words that should've been said, but, were never spoken, I just have accumulated a lot of hurt; a lot of anger over the years. I guess my blog is my personal way to share that with anybody else out that can relate.

Anyways, I hear what you're staying...and maybe, just envy you for having a better relationship with your parents (or being a stronger, better person- I don't know:P). Thanks for your two cents though. Good luck w/ the roomie situation. Take care, Jen.

P.S. - Damn, I'm tearing up your wall here on AA. Sorry about that.

Hey again. Ha, ha, yeah, I can see how clubbing can probably get redundant and lame :P. In terms of dancing, I'm more of a freestyler, myself (i.e. the reason why I'm not too much into the choreo deal). I actually entered a freestyle hip-hop dance-off competition at an old school of mine (before I transferred out). Funny thing is I actually won too :P (probably only because a. there were only five other competitors (really three other competitors because they decided to split the competition into guys and girls last second- other wise, this one girl- she was awesome, would've annihilated me. Now, that I think of it, though, ha ha there were only really two other solid (guy) competitors because one guy was completely drunk.), b. I was an Asian dancing at a conversative, Catholic, predominantly White university (so, it's just something they haven't been exposed to before :P. Seriously, I was probably one of maybe four Asians out of the entire University) & c. I took my shirt off (not to say I have much going on in the physical department- just again, something they were ever exposed to before :P).

As for joining a hip-hop workshop, it does sound fun. I always try to keep an open mind, and from what you said, it sounds like a blast. I should try and find one somewhere. As for breaking, yeah, I just wish I personally knew somebody that could breakdance, like a mentor or something.

As for doing something "just because everybody else has", I know what you mean. I don't fall into peer pressure, I just really meant, I wanted to go clubbing to see what all the hype/the scene is all about. It's just one of those things on my "To Do" list (like skydiving). Ha, ha, I would never become a heroin addict or anything like that :P. Anyways, hope all is well on your end. Take care.
