So...I guess it always differs depending where you are and who you are with (if you're with a large group of asians, or if you're only one in a crowd of white people)...but, here in the US, is there a general perception of Asians?

I know some people can be a bit more ignorant than others, and I'd like to think that most people aren't. Its just that sometimes, I get a bit surprised when people who I don't know misjudge me and ask where I come from (as in, I'm like a tourist...) or have certain expectations about me...?

I don't hang around tons of asains...why? They all speak the same language, but different from mine. Around here, I'm one of few who are filipino; everyone else is korean.
I don't get "misjudged" because I don't hang around them.
Though I still get that "well you're asian, of course you're good at math" thing or whatever, ya know?

It's whatever; just take it and leave
