i wish i could talk about my culture but the most i have is the average american experience
#like im half filipino!! my mother is a first generation immigrant!!#but ive never felt close to the culture outside of eating the food and experiencing the average filipino party a lot as a kid#i literally lived in the philippines for a year#but im just so far removed from the culture#and ive never felt a want to try and get interested and involved in it#partially because my only connection is my mother and everyone else in my family from that side is halfway across the world#it feels like ive only ever experienced the bad side of the filipino culture so there's no want in me to look into it#im only filipino by blood and looks. it is weirdly alienating#especially when everyone is either white or deeply invested in their culture.#idk#akiraspeaking
