That’s right guys, MAY is our month! I could totally go into great detail about the history of this month, how it originated, what fun things to do in the Bay Area are… but… you know… unfortunately for all of us at UC Berkeley, our hardboiled staff is winding down as finals approach! So apologies in advance for our upcoming SILENCE from the Internet world. It’s that time of the year where we finally begin to remember that… oh wait, we pay like, thousandas of dollars to attend this university which gives us like, grades and stuff.
Anyway, hopefully in like two weeks or so I can give more coherent and fun blog posts. In the meantime, I wanted to forward you guys to more professional bloggers over at Hyphen magazine. For the past month, they’ve been compiling immigrant stories to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Amy Tan’s Asian American novel The Joy Luck Club. Whereas that book totally speaks to only one time of immigrant experience specific to that time period, how much has immigrant stories changed? Lots of people contributed, so you should definitely CHECK IT.
Alright, back to research and immense paper writing. Woe.
