I quit all my hobbies12/27/2023 ![]() While my cousins had succumbed to the words of their parents, I decided I wanted to take a chance at learning from their mistakes.

Instead of a real explanation that would be extremely lame, to spare myself from social suicide, I created the crazy fantasy that I already had other plans - not just with my biology textbook. When my Caucasian friends asked the dreaded question, “Well, why won’t they let you?” I never knew where to start because I didn’t even know why my parents wouldn’t let me go to the movies or go ice skating. I couldn’t even go to study session without an interview and a mock trial by my parents.
