American Mind in an Asian Body

"Are you from Brazil or Indonesia?" people usually ask me at the first time we meet.
 This question for me isn't a problem. I always want to be a international teenager, who has wide vision, and mature mind. The problem is how I can get a balance between western culture and orient life. Every people around me can feel that I am really falling in love with American culture in which country gives every people chances to make their dream come true.  I read the book which study American's behavior. I listen the song which teach me the way American think. Everything seem like I am created for American. However I have a Asian outside. I am a Taiwanese. I grow up in Taipei. My Chinese is better than my English. I don't have blond hair and blue eyes. These are all the true that I can't deny.

Comments in good or bad side about my style never leave me. Before I probably laughed at the people who isn't in my side, but now I really appreciate them. The reason I change is that I get a new idea. The idea is come from a movie called Karate Kid. This is a film with an intercultural fusion story. How do an African American Kid won the champion of kung fu tournament and get with Chinese culture? The core of spirit of this movie is not just telling us how Kung fu works but also focus on what should we do in the time that people around the world are living together.
There are no places without Chinese people. You also can find the western people walking on the street in your home town. This is the time we have to review our position in the world.

Should I choose to be an American or Chinese? it doesn't matter anymore. I can be myself.I should be a person whom God created. I should learn the good things from any cultures, but not   following everything which is exotic. There is no thing which is always right or wrong, so we have to determine by our feeling. Thanks God give me such a chance to learn how to be myself and how to work my body and mind in the way you create. Everything happened to me must have it's meaning. It's my choice to decide to find or ignore it. This time my decision is to face it, cause I know that changing is a way to get closer to your dream.
