You feeling like you're minority?

Being addicted to trance while being Asian history major in an university where Asians take math, comp sci or engineering, sci fi geek and infanteer.

Hard to fit in with that sort of list attached to you.
Not that I mind, however, doesn't it get annoying sometimes that you're the only one in your group with super different interests?

I'm white so no. But if you were to base the minority groups on what genre of music the people listen to in my area then I'd feel like a minority. Very few people I have met around here enjoy trance and EDM in general as much as I do.

You don't nesecarily have to hang out with asians though, do you?

I choose freinds on personality rather than race. I'm caucasion, and over 50% of my freinds are asian. Come to think of it, i've never really noticed that until now...

LOL

I'm just saying I'm nothing typical. I don't fit into a 'stereotype.'

An Asian arts student in university where Asians go to for engineering, math and computer science.
A sci fi geek who is an infanteer (I mean, what kind of geek does that stuff?) so I'm not quite a geek.
An infanteer who likes trance. (they're all about rock and roll and maybe a little rap)

So my diversity in friends are quite large, for the same reason I never mix a group of them together since their tastes clash a lot.

*shrug*
What a strange world.

i can see where you are coming from, not that i experience any kind of racial problems...well...perhaps im'm white and i like trance music...know i know on the big picture...especially europe...trance is probably just as full of white listeners, but in the us...i would have to say that the vast majority of people that like the genre are asian.

but i can definitely see what you are saying because at least in my expereince...asians are the clickiest group...i mean i have asian friends and stuff, but i don't think that you'll find any other ethnic group so focused on creating a mini cultural community within the large...

and before anyone thinks i'm a racist or something...my girlfriend is half asian

i dunno about asians being the clickiest group, i'd actually say blacks are the most clickiest group. At least in my uni, but that could be due to the small number of them in the general population at my school. The neighborhood that i came from was all asians and mexicans, but because of hostile relations between the two groups there wasn't much mixing going on.

btw i think by infanteer i think he's referring to be part of the infantry in the army?
