<p>My name is Ashley. I just signed up for this site. I reside in the Boston area and I'm going to a CC. Its rare to hear that an asian boy or girl going to a CC. Well, I'm one of those "rare" asian kids going to a CC. Most of my asian family has gone to a University, not most, actually all. And I'm the first going to a CC. Is there any other asians facing this? If so, I'd like to hear how did you cope with it or what's your take on it .</p>
<p>I’m not in that situation, but I’m close to it. And I just want to say that no matter where you go, if you try hard enough, you’ll get somewhere. You could even get farther than kids from Ivy League schools. My english teacher told me that there are many families that cannot afford better schooling than CC, or that the child isn’t “good” enough. Truth is, you’ll cope just fine. Give yourself goals, maybe you’ll be able to transfer next year?</p>
