hispanics don't usually go to college
so i have to hang around with a diverse crowd.

my high school was pretty much latino.
out of all the kids that graduated with me
i only see very few in college. i guess most of the them
went to a community college or something.

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

HAHA classic racist statement, i recommend not using the "im not racist my (whatever) is (whatever) phrase"

I'm asian... listen to trance and other forms of edm. Most of my friends are white, my best bud is white, and I mostly talk to white girls(although I'm open to any girl as long as they are attractive, for some reason, I find talking to black girls the easiest), and the close asian friends I do have are pretty 'white washed'. Most of the asians I know are into electronic music, although some of them only know the really bad ones by really bad DJs like Mystic or Epic or whatever their names are.

Maybe the reason for all this is due to the small asian population exists in my city.

I am studying in a computer related field and drive a semi fixed up import(91 MR2 turbo)so I do fit in with some of the stereotypes. I can't picture myself ever owning an American car... only European or Japanese cars for me!

As for 'clickiest' group, I do agree blacks seem to fall into that category. I rarely see blacks associate with other races unless they are in a situation in which they have no choice. At work, at school, at the malls, they are always in their own little world.

I don't know why but I think asians are the most 'open' minority out there when it comes to friendships with people of all colors.

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...


what a disgrace

well how do i feel like a minority?

think this: a 6'1 17 year old chinese kid, supports president bush, loves trance, cant play tennis or swim well but great at basketball and doesnt wear abercrombie.

what? i'm not racist...what i said might have followed a few stereotypes that i've experienced to have some validity...just as i can say...in my experience...white people like rock/rap...the only reason i threw that in is because on the internet if you don't...the next thread people start accusing you of being a racist...

i'm asian, and i actually know my trance (unlike the many cracked out asian invasion at the nyc superclubs)...

i study music technology @ nyu, which has exactly 2 other asians in the whole program.

all my buddies that i grew up with are into chinese pop and hiphop...

i dun drink...that probably puts me in the minority in any situation.

that's about it i think.

Aye, we need a national campaign to rectify the situation.

I just tell people I'm a "Native American Jew."

You can't define me or put me into a box because I won't fit.

Oh, and in North America, there are perhaps no other people who have known worse oppression and hardship than those who were here before everyone else. For that reason, I'll be checking the "Native American" box on the next census.
