Hulaki Uncle, You reiterate from time to time that you don't envy the so called neprican life however going through whatever you have written, I do believe you have some sort of bitterness against US or nepalese living in US. Otherwise why would you spend so much time and energy discussing about stuff no one is willing to accept or moreover are based on hearsay or fabricated? Who told you that Black people will ask for money and when one can't meet his requirement, the person is shot? This is the perception we need to change. Honestly, people tend to think that they are evil and brutal because they never stop to stereotype. I am friends with couple of African Americans and they are cool and like any other friends I have. For an analogy, just bcoz Babu Ram Bhattarai or Prachanda are waging a war against the government and are carrying out the bloodshed, are we here to believe that all bhattarais and dahals are evil? You certainly don't get a point do you? I have been meticulously following your threads and there is one thing I haven't been able to understand why do you condemn students working in restaurants be it waiting tables or washing dishes or cleaning restrooms? The way the majority sees it as WORK. "U study one semester in one college and next semester, u will be in another college. When you complete the degree, you will have already changed 10 colleges! Kasto - Ramailo !!" Once again, this is absolutely wrong. I have friends who go to good schools and finish off their education there. In fact, I am also close to getting a degree and so far this is the only university I have been to. Why Nepali students have to change schools every semester? I don't need to elaborate on it. I do admire your swavimani nature but your grudge directed to us is too slanderous. Live and Let Live. Peace!
