You know you're Asian when...
(the X mark means it's true in my life)

Your dad is some sort of engineer (Does vet count as some sort of engineer?!)

Your parents still tried to get you into places half-price saying you were 12 when you were really 15 (I'm always look like 15)

X You ask your parents help on one math problem and 2 hours later they're still lecturing

X You have a 40 lb. bag of rice in your pantry (Eventually the amount of rice decrease, so I actually don't have 40 lb. bag of rice :P)

X You shop 99 ranch (I don't, since 99 ranch only exists in WA, CA, TX, but I shop at local Asian Market)

Everyone thinks you're "Chinese" no matter what part of Asia your ancestors were from or you are from (so far I don't have this problem)

X You've had a bowl haircut at one point in your life (Mom, why did you do this to me?!)

X You drive mostly Japanese cars.  (don't have a car now, but will definitely get a Japanese car again)

X You've learned to keep bargaining even if the prices are rock bottom (l've learned it, but still can't really do it)

X You've had to eat parts of animals they don't even put in hot dogs (It's yummy, what can I say?!)

X At least once, you've started a joke with "Confucius say...."

X You know what bok choy is

X You've gotten little red envelopes around February (that's the best part of being a kid! On the other hand, giving out red envelopes is not so fun)

You have no eyelashes (I think I still have some :P)

X Your parents say leaving rice in your bowl is a sin (And I've been well-trained to actually agree with them on this :P)

The Bio lectures on marine life (seaweed, sea cucumbers, octopii) was last night's dinner

X At least one family member wears black wire/plastic frame glasses (:D)

X Your relatives' houses smell like incense, mothballs or both (lol)

X Everyone thinks you're good at math (Yeah, every Asian can count)

Your parents insist you marry within your race

X You never order chop suey, sweet and sour pork, or any other imitation of oriental food (Need real oriental food!)

Your parents have never kissed each other

"You want a stereo?! When I was your age, I didn't even have shoes!!"

People see a bunch of scribbles on a chopstick and ask you to translate

X You have to call just about all your parent's friends "Auntie and Uncle"

X You have 12+ aunts and uncles

At expensive restaurants, you order a delicious glass of water for your beverage and NEVER order dessert (uh...water is fine, but sometimes I need dessert)

Your parents simply cut the green/black part off the bread and say "Eat anyway. It's still good."

The vast majority of the people related to you wear glasses. Thick glasses. (It's contact lens era!)

You will most likely be taller than your parents (Sad...not really lol)

X Your parents have either make you play the piano, the violin, or both

X You get nothing if you do well in school, but crapped on if you don't

Your dad still pulls his socks up to his knees, you know, the ones with the blue and pink stripes at the top

X You have rocks, sticks, leaves, and strange-smelling, unknown substances in your pantry for use as medicine

X You own a rice cooker or two (one is enough, but I wish I had a 大同電鍋)

You buy soy sauce by the gallon (don't really need that much soy sauce, and I personally think if some Americans need soy sauce, they have to by it by the gallon lol I guess some of them think Asian food = Soy Sauce)

X Your family owns butcher knives bigger than your head (I guess having that kind of knife can make the kids behave well enough)

Your parents buy you clothes and shoes many sizes too big so you can "grow into it" and wear it for years to come.
