Picture
I guess moving to Tacoma because I grew up in federal way and the people in my high school never really embraced their culture so neither did I. I would usually try to hide it before because I was seen as too Asian. So moving to Tacoma and a new high school brought me closer to my culture because they had a multicultural assembly every year that showcased different cultures so I was like oh it’s okay to embrace that side. That’s basically how I really started to accept and want to delve into my culture. A culture shock was when I came up to Bellingham. I've never been around so many white people. Because I grew up in pretty diverse neighborhoods and it was just weird because I’d find myself counting how many people of different ethnicities were in my class. Sometimes it would only be me and one other person and I’m just like wow...
