Monkey Bridge - Blog Post on Quote

Keep what you see behind your eyes, and save what you think under your tongue. Let your thoughts glow from within. Hid your true self”(Cao 41)

I think that a mother telling her daughter this is bad. I understand that in America people judge others but that is no reason that an immigrant should change who they originally are. The best part about America is that we are made up of all different cultures, except for Native Americans, no one in this country is from the United States. This quote is essentially telling her daughter to be fake, to be like an American, to loose her culture and conform to society. Immigrants always feel pressure to be like "us" but I think that we should stop making people change and just accept people for who they are. I think that we should try to learn about everyone's culture and become a  melting pot of cultures like we used to. Pascack Hills High School is not a melting pot but a single color. It would better us and the bubble we live in to see other cultures.


Here is a power point on Vietnam and three Haikus.

  1. Hey Cassie! Here are some suggestions--not sure if you've done any of this yet, but try:

    Lips (drag queen restaurant--better than Lucky Changs)http://www.lipsnyc.com/

    Tinga Tinga Karaoke in Murray Hill-rent the room for the night--bring food and drinks into the room http://www.yelp.com/biz/tinga-tinga-karaoke-new-york

    Go to Alice's Tea Cup for a tea party!! www.alicesteacup.com/

    Hookah bars are always fun--I prefer Horus on 10th st and Ave A -- there are a few locations but I like this one http://www.horuscafe.com/1024x768.html

  2. There's not much else to do but sit back and relex whenever I have to get some more Keto Diet cash. If you've read every Diet Pills book then you should read that as well. You need to follow your instincts. Where can apprentices spot sterling Weight Loss Gummies handbooks? It can be right, although the same Weight Loss Gummies isn't always the same solution. If there is anything I've learned recently it is that everybody has their own likes and dislikes when it is on par with Diet Pills.
