The good thing is.. its feels like you know everyone around your area that's filipino and that you are "related" in a way.
The bad thing is.. we choose entertainers as to be our leaders.

I like being filipino because we've got a great mix and we look different from all the other Asians. I dunno a bad thing. I don't know too many filipinos.

I'm Chinese, so... hmmm...
Well a good thing about being Chinese is that's whole undergroung Chinese mafia network that we have here in Chinatown, lol. jk [sorta] I haggle well ;] Bad thing... We're an opressed bunch, I guess. A lot of people think that a lot of Asians don't stick up for themselves, and I feel like we're the victims? Does anyone else feel that way? I've gotten a lot of racist remarks. Especially from the black and white people in my community. It's just the people in my neighborhood that make fun of us asians a lot. =[ But some azns have band together to form their little crews to stick up for ourselves and f 'em up =D lol. Not that it's a good thing. Okay, I'm babbling, haha =x |

Good thing about being Hispanic:
1) Funny parents, who are kind of weird...(is that a good thing?) 2) If you know Spanish, most likely, you are able to use that spanish accent in different ways (you can sound italian and you are able to pronounce words that oftentimes, others can't). That doesn't really make sense, but oh well... 3) I have no idea... Bad things: 1) People assume you're MEXICAN! GRR, that's just so annoying, just because a person speaks Spanish, doesn't mean they're Mexican 2) Some look down on you, those stereotypes that annoy the hell out of me 3) I don't know, parents are kind of strict |

Filipino:
Good -Kindness and warmth is rampant. -Skilled jungle fighters (well maybe that's in the Filipino soldier category...  )-Good food, good heritage, good people. Bad -One word brings down the credibility of the Filipino people: Corruption. (cases like these aren't shown that often in Filipino-Americans due to the conditions we were raised in.) |

Good thing about being a Korean:
- You get sae baet don (money) in new years. - You have a stereotype, which I think is true, of being good in art or math. - Kimchi!  Bad things: - Slanty eyes.  - And you know... the asian curse.
