<p>oh PULease... i HATE AA soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much... i mean its not even just the whites... being asian you KNOW how much it sucks. just because you're asian, anything under 1500 is crap... just because every other asian has a 4.0, a 3.95 means you suck. if i was african america, my stats would be WOOOOOOWWWW... just because they already have 30% asians in their school means they want to "diversify" their campus with others of a different race with lower stats</p>
<p>why the hell does it even matter how "diversified" your school is?? i mean... if i was native american, heck i could get into harvard with 1200. yeah, sure there was injustice, but com'on... was their no injustice to china in the past?! INJUSTICE is a
LAME
excuse to give benefits. u think only african americans work 2 jobs to buy groceries? </p>
<p>i dont come from a rich family; i work 30 freaking hours a week, 12 hours a day on the weekend, 6 hours on friday night, with 6 AP classes. u think a chinese restaurant is gonna say, "oh... we cant make her work 12 hours, that's against the law" when they got a load of illegal mexicans working for $800/month full time? yeah... life is harsh, and not only african americans know that. </p>
<p>u know what, i cant even begin to tell the ad comm how difficult it is, because nobody will believe what goes on in a chinese restaurant. nobody will believe someone works from 10 to 11 with no breaks and get paid $15/day and have to work xtra hard to make good tips. nobody will believe that they give you fifteen tables and make u be your own busgirl.. in an american restaurant they give you FIVE lousy tables. it may look like im making $20/hour, but this $20 comes from hell of a lot hardwork. u think all chinese people are collegebound with professors for their parents? just because a story is untold doesnt mean the hardships do not exist</p>
<p>i read my apbio book during WORK, i mean... i have to work twice as fast so that when my tables are set, i can have a chance to read.. because if i dont, i know ill get home at like 11 and have 60 pages to read by tomorrow.. and thats not including calc, physics, or english homework</p>
<p>seriously... do u see me in a record store all day watching my life walk by and then saying, "oh, i didnt get equal opportunity for college".. no, because i work my a-ss off and what do i get: an african american or native american gets accepted and i dont just because they want to "diversify" their campus. its not even an issue of "underpriviledged" because if thats the case then im more underpriviledged than at least 50% of those lowstat african americans that gets accepted... its just a matter of ignorant stereotypes</p>
