A friend of mine gave a serious suggestion to me : Michael, trying to hang out with less asian friends (for me, that means cantonese speaking people), and hang out with more english speaking people no matter they are white, black or latino.
Guess what I answered ?
I told him, well, I realized this issue when I first came to California a few years ago. I don't know what's the point of making so many cantonese speaking friends. Even after I came to UCLA, my major social network was still HK people {tho some of them are pretty cool). But I did try to expand my social network to english speaking people but I just couldn't really enjoy it. Perhaps it's because of my slightly introvert personality.
Somehow I think I should go back to asia for a more comfortable working environment,
but right now, I am still really dreaming about landing my career in advertising in US.
Madison Ave, can I come ?
different culture is really a problem, it really hard to keep friendship with American.. may be I didn't try hard enough. But you should definitely work out your career before you left!
