Growing up, my mom has always been the one to help me with my math homework.
Now many of you might think "why is she telling us this", the reason why is that ever since i've started learning about math, i've always asked myself why she was so darn good at it.
If you knew my mom, you would most likely answer with " it's because shes asian".
I've never really listened to the stereotypical straight A asian student label people usually go with, because I don't even get straight A's and i'm asian, so I've decided that that stereotype is ridiculous.
However, I was surfing on the web and found this...
Now if you feel proud and solved the first equation faster than you did the second, go back and read the titles of each image. I guess I was wrong about the stereotype; let it be math, science or anything else inbetween, asian will one day take over!
ahahah .. this was a little rant about what i felt, hopefully it didn't bore anyone too much!
now heres a video that I found reflected my life.. don't mind the foul language at some parts, I mean it is russell peters ! Enjoy ! :)
Incredible the difference, isn't it? Although i wonder how true it is....what site did you find this at? And great link btw, I love Russell Peters! I have watched a lot of his stuff. One of my favourite ones was about how racist sign language is. Like he said "I'll tell you how racist sign language is - guess what the sign for an Asian person is? It's exactly what you think it is!"
