Beautiful and StrangeI didn’t know I was Asian until I was 26. A bubble is a funny thing. Having grown up in the Southern California San Gabriel Valley, dispersing my time between a 60% Asian American high school and an immigrant church in Koreatown, Los Angeles, my perception of normal was not hyphenated with the word Asian.
Unspectacular and Insignificant I WAS CRYING MY EYES OUT during the final few miles of my trek into town.
