i won't say that i'm a "typical asain"..but i'm getting there and spending all my life in the UK isn't going to change that :) MY desi life revolves around my huge family, weird asian community and my wonderful, yet equally troubled group of friends. there's never a dull moment with all that 'hustling and bustling' in my life- and i rather keep it that way ;D

Today, my Aunt was bragging about her daughter buying a Jansport backpack 75% off and saving money. My parents commented that they have raised her well. TMDL

Today, my family decided to go to Cultus Lake Waterslides. We got there at 1. We were waiting outside the waterpark for 2 hours because it was half price after 3 o'clock. The park closes at 5. TMDL

Today, my mom came to school for a parent teacher meeting. My teacher told my mom about our senior trip to Italy during spring break. My mom told her that we couldn't afford a trip to "itly-shitly". My teacher was offended. I had to explain to her my mom's compulsive rhyming habit. TMDL

Today, I asked my dad why he's so strict and why I'm not allowed to hang with my friends like all the other kids. He replied because their parents don't care about their kid's future. TMDL

Today, I was craving some icecream in this heat so I decided too check the freezer. I found about 10 icecream buckets and not one of them had icecream. They were all sabzis and Saag....TMDL.

Today, my dad took me and my sisters to Cardiff castle. The tour lady took us to the library and said 'Please do not touch anything'. My dad walks straight over to one of the books, picks it up, opens it & starts flicking through the pages. TMDL

Today, I found out that my twin cousins found a rishta and they decided that instead of letting the girl choose which one she liked more, her dad thought it would be better that she gets married to the oldest one. He's 2 minutes older. TMDL

Today, my parents told me that guests are coming. Upon arriving I couldn't help notice the aunty and uncle taking an unusual interest in me by asking what seemed like a million questions. After they leave my mom finally reveals they have a son and that the reason for their visit was to see me. TMDL

Today, my dadima and I were talking. I was like dadima, can you give me lots of money so I can study and go a long way in college? She was like "NO! i want to save my money for your wedding!" Weddings are how Indians show off their 'richness' and that's what gets to me! TMDL

Today, I attended the epitome of a Pakistani mehndi. It 'started at 7', people arrived till 10.30, after which the first two dances were performed unenthusiastically. Then at 11pm dinner was served. After 6 hours hungry, the people in line for food were so ravenous that the caterers got scared. TMDL
