Asian Parents 2: Grades

Hello newcomers and members,

Today, as I'm coming to an end of a week of spring break, I would like to talk- should I say discuss, Asian Parents. But this time, grades! I know all of  you Asians out there must keep up with your grades, and you have high expectations from your parents. You get one "B" and you get a lecture. Am I right? Or maybe your parents are so strict that you get an "A-" and you, of course, get another lecture. So, it is safe to say that A stands for Average in terms of Asian grades. Need I say more? Well, check it out in the chart below.

Hmm. Is that familiar to you all Asians? But if  you are a race other than Asian, you may be surprised. You may be even saying "WOW" and you are relieved that YOU do not have an Asian parent.

This is sometimes true in some cases. I know my parents always want me to do the best.

But the real question is, "Is having strict Asian parents good or bad?"

Well, it depends. If you constantly get good grades because of your Asian parents, its good! But if you do not have good grades, and you have strict Asian parents, it may be bad. And if you do not have strict Asian parents and do not have DECENT grades, it is worse.

Sometimes we all need a break. This stereotype SOMETIMES may be true, but to confess, it is tough to constantly get good grades. With all the pressure it is easy to crack. My point is, do your best even if do not have Asian parents. YOU WILL BE REWARDED IN THE END.

On final note, I leave you with two jokes and a phrase.

Joke:
Asian parent: "Why you get B on test? You not C-sian, you not B-sian, you A-SIAN!
Asian parent: "You get stung by a B? WHY NOT GET STUNG BY AN A?

Phrase:
FOB: Fresh Off the Boat
Referring to Asians coming from their home country and fresh off the boat in America. You can have a fresh off the boat accent, culture, whatever you like! e.x. Your parents are so F.O.B.


LOVE,

History of Chopsticks

A tool or a weapon?

Chopsticks are short tapered sticks of equal length that are used in pairs. They are used as eating utensils of China, Mongolia, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. Even though chopsticks are used in many Asian countries, it is believed that they were originated in ancient China. The earliest known pair of chopsticks were actually made of bronze! It is said that the first chopsticks were most likely used for cooking, stirring the fire, and serving bits of food; they weren't used as eating utensils. Chopsticks weren't used as eating utensils until the Han and the Ming Dynasty came. So are chopsticks a tool or a weapon. I think it's a tool.

But this is a WEAPON. Especially if it's shoved up your butt.

Asian Representation

Hi guys,

Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, I have been really busy with school. The week before spring break is always a very hard school week, with lots of homework, tests and all that fun stuff. But forget that, let's talk about "ASIAN REPRESENTATION." If you don't know what Asian Representation is, it's that proud feeling you get inside you when you see a famous Asian do something extraordinary.


Take Jeremy Lin for example, I know this might be all old news to the Asians out there, but it is a great Asian Representation example! Almost 30 points and about 10 assists every game, getting a buzzer beater, and coming fresh out of Harvard and out of nowhere? That's classical Asian Representation. You have to admit, it takes skill to be on the cover of TIME magazine... for BASKETBALL!

 

Let us take a look at another Asian Representation example. But this time, YouTube. NigaHiga, KevJumba, Wong Fu Productions, and theDOMINICshow. All of them are top YouTube stars.

There is also ASIAN REPRESENTATION UPRISINGS. These are potential Asians on the brink of becoming famous. Let's take a look at Jessica Sanchez, the likely winner of American Idol. She's good awesome vocals and she's Filipino! Like me!

Let us also take a look at Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao. This FILIPINO boxer is also likely to become an ALL TIME GREAT and be just as famous as Muhammad Ali or Sugar Ray Leonard. From winning knock-outs to being winning 8 different championships in 8 different weight divisions, Pacquiao is surely going to become remembered. Manny Pacquiao is also a congressman for the PHILIPPINES and a occasional singer. Boss.

As you can see, ASIAN REPRESENTATION is a GREAT feeling to have. It's always great to have that feeling, because many people think Asians are short, nerds and wimps, but we prove them

WRONG

Love,

HAM

Hello guys,

Have you read the title? Have you heard this short abbreviation that many people use? For instance,

Person 1: Hey what's up man?
Person 2: What up bro, just GOING HAM!

Now if you don't know what going H.A.M. is, here is my definition.

noun 1. H.A.M. - Hard as a motherninger.

Aha! You thought I was going to talk about ham, a cut of meat from the heavy-muscled part of a hog's rear, between its hip and hock. But enough of that.

April FOOLS!

Haha! We got you, we are not starting a fashion line. BUT, (here's the "but") if you would like us to start a fashion line, like you would actually wear the apparels, then we may consider. If you are one of those people that would like us to start a fashion line, tell us by emailing us at cantorwong@gmail.com

With Love,

Asian Occasion

Rumors Released

As you may know, there have been rumors of us doing something very surprising, a new FASHION LINE! We start with t-shirts and sweatshirts.

We will be knitting these shirts. Actually, our Asian grandmothers with boss-like sewing machines that  were passed down from generations to generations are going to help us make the shirts. We are anticipating to sell at least 500 items of clothing on the first day. This is not a scam, THIS IS...Yin Yang. 

To accompany this, we are making shoes! YES THAT'S RIGHT FOLKS, shoes! Specifically, we are making basketball, soccer, and casual shoes for all. 

Our first theme of shoes will be superheroes! We are taking requests from all of you guys, all ideas are welcome. Remember, the worst idea is no idea! Please help cheer us on by sending us an email at cantorwong@gmail.com. Thanks for all your support! 

YIN YANG AND CO.
