When I was enrolled at the University of Washington in the in the early nineties, I noticed that Asian students mingle with other Asian students as well as American students (Black, White, Asians).

But freshman foreign Asian students who enrolled together at U.W. tend to form their own clique, at least in their freshman year.

After their freshman year, they seemed to have networked more widely with students of various background and nationalities, and started to mingle freely on/off campus.

Koreans are asshole dipshits? Like yourself right?

Yes, I'm Korean. but I try NOT to be a typical korean. actually I'm just a goddamn twinkie. even in high school, those Korean people weren't too fond of me. I'm not ANTI-Korean, I just gon't give a shet about them. I don't like Koreans because the way I see it is they are typically assholes and egotistical and materialistic, makes me look bad too, because I'm Korean, but I can say I am not materialistic or try not to be egotistical (try to look all badass and shet). I try to be openminded, because I KNOW there are really nice Korean people, but in my experience, they were just assholes to everyone in school and to me.

and now I look like an asshole myself.

I'm glad I'm a twinkie.

koreans swear a lot too.

i didn't read all 7 pages, so don't go post nazis on me.

I myself don't really have a preference of what race to hang out with, but it has alot to do with what type of asian you are talking about.

well there are really few types.

Fobs - really fresh off the boat, to the point where you can spot them from a mile away.

Ethnocentrics - the ones with all the "asian pride", as if they are better then others. alot of koreans are like this

The introvert nerds - the 4.0 students whos are often times afraid to hand out with whites/blacks, the lack the confidence to speak up and act out.

The ex-fobs - the ones who hang out with mostly asian's but have a good blend of friends from other cultures.

The believers - asians whos are ashamed of their own race. Might sound dumb, but its true. if you ever seen the movie "the believers" you would know. They often feel embarrassed about the way other people of their own ethnicity act.

Twinkies - The ones who are yellow on the outside, but white on the inside. These are the ones who grew up/born here, pretty much white, however they have traditional asian parents who makes them follow their asian cultures.

"adopted" - those who are born, raised and follow the typical american culture.

I personally don't hang out with the fobs and ethnocentrics, they're just not much fun to be around.

wow, i don't think i've seen a more uneducated nor bigoted post. you say it as if every asian fits nicely and exclusively into one of those categories.

fobs? i myself look like a fob. i can speak fluent chinese like a fob. and i'm sure you'd call me a fob if you spotted me from two miles away. but i'm not a fob.

ethnocentrics? you will find many white, black, latino, chinese, vietnamese, and filipino people who are ethnocentric. koreans are not the only ones.

introvert nerds? i was a 4.0 student who had friends both white and black and asian and purple. i'm sure there are many more out there.

ex-fobs? i know many 'ex-fobs' who are still fobs and can't speak english properly.

the believers are just people who are uneducated about their own culture and history of their own culture to appreciate and understand why people of their own ethnicity act the way they do. you might fit here.

am i a twinkie if i enjoy a big piece of rib eye every once in a while yet celebrate the lunar new year? sounds like 'adopted' asians are just too complacent to look outside of their white world. i doubt very many asians truly fit into this group.

i suggest you go out into the world and meet some more people instead of posting judgemental stereotypes. i also sense an implicit hierarchy to your groups. are you too good to hang out with fobs or ethnocentrists? if you give these people no reason to go out of their comfort zone, you really can't expect them to can you? it's so much easier to judge from a mile away.

Most of my friends are black/white. And yeah I probably am a Twinkie... quite whitewashed. I mean I drove a Cadillac as my first car, go to car shows where typically all my 'crew' is black/latino, and work primarily with white people. Just about the only place where everyone's asian around me is at church...

Im vietnamese and in highschool and all my friends are white or black.....i really dont have any other oriental friends at all....they seem to stuck up and what not. these are the kids who dont even want to go to college though and their parents dont push them because they know they will grow up to take over the family business(chinese food reseraunt, nail shop, small grocery store that gets robbed once a year)

This whole thread is about sterotyping and those are my sterotypes. Never did i say all asians belong in one of those groups nor did i say that was an all inclusive list. Just my opinion of course. I never said i am too good to hang out with fobs or ethonocentrists, nor did i say koreans are the only ones. I actually have alot of fob friends since i work in a asian restaurant, however i don't hang out with them often because we seem to have different interests and commnications seems to be a problem.

These are the observations that i have made. Me a believer? Not really, but then again you seemed like you know everything and all my OPINIONS are wrong, as if thats possible. Perhaps your should go out and meet some people are realize people are allowed to have their own opinion and their own sterotyping scheme, eventho its bad to sterotype, everyone does it.
