It's funny -- no one quite notices if the Asian kids don't sit together, but they do if they sit together. Whereas if all the white kids sit together, that's not remarkable, but if they don't sit together, that's odd.

I always have problems, because on one hand, when people say that Asians are not seen as a minority, it almost feels as though there's a hidden sentence tacked to the end: "So stop talking about being a minority." Then there's the whole lovely Pandora's box of assimilation and losing culture and knowing that no matter which way you choose to go, someone will question it.
