Lets see..
*Does the math*
32% Vietnamese and 68% Chinese (Cantonese).
0-0;
Vietnam was once ruled by China..
heart Same, we need to learn Vietnamese the next school year at Chua or make our parents teach us.
Well compared to you I consider myself more Chinese.

Yeah..
Fun how much more Chinese blood I have but how much closer I feel to Vietnamese than to Chinese.

I think it might have been the way you were brought up. Maybe your parent exposed you more to the vietnamese culture than the chinese and that's why you feel closer to veitnamese than chinese.

That I highly doubt. My parents spoke cantonese the whole time they raised me and I was never around any full blooded Vietnamese people untill later on in my life. So that is pretty unlikely.

hmm... well i guess when you're exposed to new ideas you can either reject them completely or embrace it.
