I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before.
I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him.
I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do.
I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion.
I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different.
There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

It’s actually true. His family is from Tamil Nadu province in India which is a part of Asia. Many times, at least here, folks speak of the “South Asian Community” meaning people from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, etc…

Haha. I’ve never even heard of the term “Asian American”.
I looked it up and this guy, apparently, was born in America. I don’t understand why people always feel the need mention someone’s heritage.
It only proves that he will never been seen as a true American.
I see it a lot with the “foreigners” in Holland too.
They will never be accepted as Dutch, which bothers them.
BUT THEN AGAIN, people with a different heritage from the country they live in, are also proud and want to show their culture as much as possible.
The contradiction is large with this one.
ps. YAY for this “This is US”. They have started to film again. I am super excited 😀

Oh cool! This is US is good! I think Aziz is hysterical and I know that he’s always talking about his parents from India and how he was raised. Yes, he should just be American!

Well, being an Indian in the U.S. it did take me some time to adapt to the fact that I am an “Asian” here.

Not to me. You are from India and therefore Indian, not Asian. I’m okay knowing I was wrong and that I didn’t know India is part of Asia but you are still just Indian to me. AND, if you were born here, like Aziz, you are American. 😀

Hehe…I am very Indian, although I grew up in the middle-east, and my husband is American but we were both born in India – yes, we are a cultural mess lol!! Having travelled (almost) all over the world I have learned it’s more important to be more welcoming to different cultures rather than to spend time trying to label them.

That is very true! I’m used to just saying hi to everyone and not worrying about labels which is why the news just cracked me up
