Really annoying having your identity constantly feeling like it& #39;s on the knife& #39;s edge. Being a diaspora Asian and bi-racial is like a double whammy some days. Suddenly you& #39;re one thing and one day you& #39;re the next based on someone& #39;s idea of what is or isn& #39;t your experience.

The quantifiers for what you are or aren& #39;t are often based off of some impossible standard. It& #39;s never a box I& #39;ve ever fit into. What counts. What doesn& #39;t. Am I somehow less than who I was before because I moved? Or because of where I& #39;m living now? It& #39;s annoying..
