Maybe it's the recent article that I read, or remaining thoughts from the AsianNUProject or even just my day-to-day activities at my internship that keep my mind at this thought.
So many Asians seem to hit this...social niche. Family income in between 100-250K. Live in a city suburb. Either one or both parents are doctors, scientists, or engineers. And oddly enough, mostly church goers too. Stable income, good morals - respectable citizens. The Asian niche.
On one hand, I want to be safe and say, "And not that there's anything wrong with that." But really, I can't say that with a straight face.
At work, I really want to just give the business to my boss. Not in a demeaning manor, but quite simply, a fair and necessary task. Man to man, saying "You didn't hold your end of the deal." But then I think, I shouldn't "give in." I should stay patient and wait for the better days, the better opportunity. I need this guy to like me for future recommendation letters.
So, what's going to win inside of me? My courage/anger or my patience/fear? Fear to speak up, to take a stance? I think certainly my patience/fear will win, just because it is the passive option.
