[MaskedMan]

I dont think there is a Buzz Beer, then again I turned 21 while I already lived in California so I didn't really do much drinking while I was back home. Yes, I waited until I was 21 to drink anything, I'm a dork. But the Warsaw Tavern, where they all drank at, is a real place. I've been to the rock and roll hall of fame too, it's very interesting inside because I am a huge fan of old rock and roll. It's odd that I was able to pick up speaking Cantonese in a town of 99% white people and .02% of asian people. Those are acurrate percentages too! It's on a website somewhere haha. The other percents are every other race. I was like 1 of 3 asian people in my entire High School. One was my sister, and the other one was my cousin haha .

[xs94st]

lol. i was the only half samoan at my hs. 70-75% asian, ~19% caucasion, ~3% hispanic, ~2% african american, ~1% other (LOL)

yea, hs was awesome..

[hongkongnerdboy]

i want to go to your hs :[

not enough asians at mine

[MarcoGTS]

hahah in my school there was only me, and two Filipinos in the entire school, most were all hispanic, 20% were African American, and 5% Viet/Chinese

[MaskedMan]

Sounds interesting growing up. I'm one of the only asians who is a Toby Keith fan haha .



You know, there was a Filipino guy at my school. But it's odd because, ok go talk to some Filipino people, half of them will say they are asian, and the other half will say they are not asian. It's one of the world's greatest mysteries.

true!!! some came up to be and were all like "azn pryde!!" and stuff and some said they were mexicans LOL

[xs94st]

and for some reason, even though i was surrounded by koreans, i was unable to pick up any korean. lol. the only chinese i know is happy new year, and i had to practice it to get it right so i could get 100 bucks

i cant remember it though..

happy new year

also, i saw a red coupe today. young kids too.

hope they saw the sticker, i tried to slow down next to em but traffic is unforgiving

[hongkongnerdboy]

a red one? i never seen one around riverside hmm theres like 2-3 of them near me though

[MarcoGTS]

Ok this is the thing bout filipinos, some say they are Pacific Islander, and others say they are Asian... Filipino-Americans (Fil-Ams) call themselves pacific islander....well if you want to know the truth, if you think about it, all the Islands in Asia, Japan, Philippines, Indonesia, they "would" b called Pacific islander because they are not connected to the other asian countries..BUT if YOU actually go to these islands, ask the local people if they are Asian or Pacific Islander, about 99 1/2% of them will say they are Asian.....so yea majority wins the vote....and think about it, back in high school when you have to bubble in your ethnicity , why is there separate bubbles for Pacific Islander and Filipinos?? see....its wierd hahahahah

But then if this is true, then Japan is really pacific island, and then we don't drive asian cars anymore, but we drive pacific islander cars. OMG! haha, but yeah, so to end the myth, Filipinos are asian?

Oh and you saw a black coupe with a girl driving it? Hmmm, no i do not know her.. but I haven't seen another 6gc driving around in a long long time. Maybe they migrated south for the winter and haven't come back yet?

[airfron]

funny thing is my gf is filipino and she says she is asian, but her brother says they're pacific islander, its something i've heard them argue about. it makes me chuckle.

there is no confusion if you are white/caucasian, i don't even know half my heritage. european mutt pretty much sums it up.

my car goes in for paint next week, monday. so i'm not sure if it'll be ready. i hope it will. i'll know by weds if i can go.

[xs94st]
