Yup.ValkyrieRaven88 said:As for the Indian thing, I know what you're talking about even though I haven't experienced it. You're Indian as from India, then, right? (I'm part Indian as in Native American, that's why I'm asking.)
In most cases, that's true. Back in India, my parents (who were rich comparitively) had to SLAVE away in school to get into college. It hasn't registered with them yet that you don't need a 4.2 GPA to get into a good college in America . It's good that they push me though. I would be a pathetic couch potato if they didn't force me to do my best.ValkyrieRaven88 said:We talked about different cultures in sociology and the teacher explained (to my all-white small-town class) that Indian-American kids were pushed harder than we were.
