Response to Comments

Thanks for reading my post, Dru! Yes, I am all three! :) Some of my Vietnamese friends get offended by Americans calling them Chinese, but in my case, I am part Chinese so I don't feel offended. This happens to me frequently: people asking me if I am Asian or Chinese. I think it's a bit funny considering China is in Asia, but hey, I'm a spoon sometimes too - reference to Coach Hawkings there. And I agree with your comment. Culture is extremely important and should never be lost.

Thanks, Liz! I'm glad you enjoyed my post. :) Have you read The Outsiders before? It sounds like you have. If so, are there any books that you can recommend to me that are of this topic? I'd really appreciate it. Nevertheless, I am undoubtedly happy that I chose this book! Most of the books I have read lack an interesting storyline to me, but this book left me dumfounded. And yes, society plays a huge factor on how we all think and behave. I wish the rules and restraints would disappear, but I have no control over that.

  1. I read "The Outsiders" in english class and I absolutely loved it! I would recommend "And Then There Were None" which is a murder mystery but since it is Agatha Christie it has such a clever plot my mouth was hanging open at the end of the book! Also I just read "Flowers for Alegron" which was more emotional but defiantly kept me reading till the end.
