reading Bitter Chocolate by Carol Off --
but i keep getting lured away and terribly sidetracked by KevJumba.
-sighs- i wish i knew him in real life, lolz.

KevJumba, on the subject of grades:

“When you’re Asian, it’s a lot different...
A doesn’t stand for Awesome anymore, it stands for Average.
A B stands for Bad, because when you make a B, you’re already below average—all the other Asians are making As!
A C stands for Crap -- it means you’re doing terrible. Your parents are probably going to lecture you, they’re going to yell at you, they’re probably going to spank you a few times.
A D stands for DEATH. You’re parents are probably going to threaten to kill you.
And then an F stands for Fucked. ’Cause you know what, you’re parents are probably going to abandon you, they might try to send you to boarding school. TERRIBLE things happen.

“So to answer your question, I’m below average for an Asian. I make As, mostly Bs, and sometimes Cs. So my parents hate me, and they call me a failure at life.”

so true (trust me), that it’s ridiculously funny.
-bursts out laughing-
bwaha.
