California Asians have never known what it’s like to be the only Asian in a 2 hr driving radius. California Asians appear so comfortable and confident with themselves. It’s the confidence you get from always having boba and an Asian grocery easily in reach. I think it takes a lacking outsider to recognize the sturdiness and naivety that is inherent in you. I admire it, even if you guys can be a little brain dead sometimes.

With love, a countryside Asian American.
