You thought bunnies with pancakes on its head were cute? Yes, that\’s right. Here\’s some more. :)

And I had always said for the longest time thinking that it was an unique picture that apparently if you put a pancake on a bunny\’s head, it will stay still.

I didn\’t notice until now but Lele posted a few comments about the A&F controversy below. Well okay, I admit that I wasn\’t exactly informed about the entire issue. No doubt, there will be some protest/boycott here on the Berkeley campus very soon. Which brings up a good point…are protests/boycotts really useful? The Palestian protest they had a few weeks ago was disruptive and disrespectful (noting that it was also the Day of Remembrance for the Holocaust). And additionally, I had an argument with Anthony the only white friend I ever had here…about protests. He thought they were futile since they blocked their way to class…blah blah…and it didn\’t create any urgency for the issue other than making people annoyed and irritated.

Okay I lost my train of thought. :p And I was about to make a good point too.

Uh yeah, racism/ignorance sucks?

There was a good point made somewhere about how the controversy is almost nearly a publicity stunt.

I can say that I am a hypocrite though, because when someone made a comment about my ethnicity, I would lash back with such urgency. Still, personally…I think the girl in CS lab was making a big fuss, especially raising her voice when everybody was concentrating on coding. It\’s true that because of this…according to her, Asians will never rise in society. What to do then since we\’re only 3.6% of the total US population.

And I am still an indifferent college student.

Oh gawd. WHAT IS THIS?! I receieved the e-mail late at night.

Jennifer:

I would like to let you know that we have decided to hire you for the RCC position!

Congratulations!

And I thought I was giving up hope already. I thought I had the worst interview, but I guess not since they hired me. OMG!!! I really was kicking that position aside because it\’s underpaid and overworked. Hmmm…

How boring. I noticed this today. I am the last Asian American to comment on Abercrombie and Fitch. I could care less, as I am about indifferent about anything politically in this world. I guess that comes from living in Berkeley, huh.

Yesterday, while I was working with Nam on the CS project, I couldn\’t help but hear an asian girl (who I thought was annoying to begin with) talking to this white guy about the A&F controversy. \”Asians are so underrepresented…the world needs change now!\” Blah blah. It kept building up that I couldn\’t concentrate on coding, since she was being so loud. The entire lab almost quieted for a second to listen to her speak. Personally I have never bought anything from Abercrombie and Fitch. First, because stereotypicall like all Asians, I am cheap. Second, because there\’s no A&F near where I live!!! The closest one is in Union Square. My sister\’s 17th birthday present was from there. An A&F visor.

And so what if they make fun of us. Maybe I was spared or something, because I never encountered a racial slur or perhaps I never noticed. Although I grew up in a Caucasion-dominant community, I felt…well accepted for my ethnicity. But ya know just like high school, I wasn\’t accepted because…uh I was a geek/nerd? And a lack of social skills, I must say.

Nonetheless, I wouldn\’t be caught dead wearing those shirts, because I don\’t associate myself with Chinese that often. And besides, the pictures looked dorky in the first place.
