Why I shouldn't have a blog.

So it is 1:12 a.m. and I could be finishing up homework.   But no.  I am blogging.  How did I know this would happen?  :)  Anyway, looks like it's gonna be another random thought post.

Well, I guess I'll focus on one random thought.  So I went to this performance by a bunch of the cultural clubs at the Wilk tonight for my World Music Cultures class.  That class is running my life.  Haha.  Not really.  But kinda.  :)  Anyway, one of the groups who performed was the Korean Association.  And you know what I realized?  I miss my Korean friends!!!!!!!  So yeah, BYU is diverse alright.  We have people here from every state and a ton of countries around the world.  However, besides white people, there is no massive group of any ethnicity here.  When I swipe people's ID cards at the library, their home address pops up.  So occasionally I'll see people with addresses from Nepal or India or Korea or Mexico (just to name a few), but really there are just a lot of white people at this school and in Utah in general.  I miss California.  For example, back in 2006, my high school was 33% Asian/Pacific Islander, 1% African American, 8% Latino/Hispanic, and 58% White/European American/Other.  I would insert a fancy chart at this point but I am not smart enough to figure out how to copy and paste one.  :)  Now these numbers don't even come close to the percentages of cool ethnic people in the city of Los Angeles that is extremely close to mi casa.  Just look at my home stake.  We have a Spanish ward, a Filipino branch, and a Korean branch!  Isn't it great?!  And the Arcadia mission, which is my home mission, is a bilingual mission.  Every missionary learns to teach in Spanish and English.  And you may be thinking to yourself that we aren't terribly diverse with 58% white people at my high school.   However, you must remember that the 58% included European Americans and Others.  I LOVE DIVERSITY!  :)  My point: I love my hometown and all the ethnic people who live there too.

Ok so this pictures is a bit deceiving.  All of these kids are actually all foreign exchange students from Asian countries.  It was at a summer camp I worked at.  But you get the point.  :)

Well, that's about it.  Happy Veteran's Day!  I'll write more about that later.  Oh don't you worry.  :)
