Thought my essays were good and I can’t wait to meet you guys if I end up going here! For all those crazy race-caring people out there, I guess I’d go under Asian, since my grandparents on both sides were Hindu Indian (South Asia) and they moved to Malaysia where my parents were born who came to Michigan where I was born, does that make me Malaysian Indian American? lol</p>
