I don't mean to sound all condescending... But I have a weird thing about people who get tattoos or who become soo involved in a culture that isn't their own.. Yes, I know that I have a rich culture being asian and all... and that being white makes it harder to identify with a culture.. But still.. It is weird.. I'm watching Miami Ink on TLC and everyone has Japanese masks, or japanese writing.. And they all say the same thing "I'm just so like intersted in japanese culture, and the aesthetic" and being all badass putting japanese demons on their bodies??!? Am I the only one who thinks some of this is just not right? I know, I know.. Lots of my friends have tats, some with Characters on them.. And I don't want to make any of you feel bad.. But sometimes, just sometimes, seeing non-asians with this huge deal about all things asian is the same to me as walking through Chinatown and being able to spot out the white folk among the asian faces.. I do have a sense of pride in my heritage.. and it just feels odd sometimes..
That and I'm sleepy. Rob slept the whole day. Poor thing. I dragged him out last night, and he only got a few hours sleep.. therefore when he got home from work, he was wicked tired. I'm sorry that we didn't make it to your place, missy.. I meant to call.. I got into a lazy slump today, after rob passed out..
