So thanks to Jinny, I spent the entire morning stalking this website.

Admittedly, I took one look at Albert Einstein's essay and saw a 5 syllable word and I was like:
"I'm not reading that." :D

Yo-Yo Ma's was pretty good though.

My only complaint is that Sarah Chang didn't write one...T___T

Here are the ones that stuck with me:

Depressing ones:

Dad Will Come Home Soon

This one was just really sad. Makes me feel like I take my parents for granted.

A Duty to Family, Heritage and Country

This one is the stereotypical Asian kid. But the thing that hit me was that she has ACCEPTED her fate. She doesn't try to rebel against her parents, she's like the PERFECT ASIAN DAUGHTER.

This is what she says:
" ...I would think: My parents and grandparents brought me up, my country gave me shelter, my teachers spent so much time building my foundations just to have me throw it all away? No, I can’t do that! I must repay all that they have done. “I must,” “I should,” “I have to,” all those little phrases govern my life...Here in America, there is almost a pressure to follow your dreams. I don’t want any more dreams — dreams are illusions. And it’s too late for me to work toward another future, to let the foundations I have built go to ruins."

Isn't that depressing??? O~O
