A Conversation on Facebook....

This is a conversation i just had with my homie back up north we're both Chinese, grew up in San Jose, Ca.
We were talking a bit about this blog and i was telling him who I wanted to reach out to and i just started spittin' out what I've been trying to communicate to the world, breaking stereotypes and hoping for people to see Us for who I really am.

i'm probably gonna be targeting people like you and me

not to offend but seemingly underachieving asian kids who's parents have brought them up to think they have to be something awesome and make lots of money like a doctor or else they are failures i'm here to tell them fuck all that thats not how life really is

This is what kryptology is all about.

1:58am My Homie

sho

1:59am Me

i'm not saying i'm a failure or you are but in the eyes of society sometimes i feel like one

1:59am My Homie

wurd

1:59am Me

like what the fuck? do they really expect me to be a doctor?

i know i'm smart i just haven't found what i want to do it's not like i want to be a bum and never do anything with my life

it's just i don't know what

2:01am My Homie

yea

speakin to the choir

2:02am Me

see what I mean? I know I'm not the only one

theres thousands

especially in the bay area

we grew up with all these things expected of us yet we don't meet any of those "expectations"


Let me hear YOU if you know what I'm saying?!

  1. awesome joe. I'm really excited to see where this all takes you. In reading what you've had to say it seems like this is something youve been needing to do for awhile.
