    two questions

    are you still in your home country, (lol meaning, china, taiwan, HK)
    or have you immigrated somewhere else?
    or are you a 1st or 2nd generation in a new land?

    if your not in home country
    where are you?


    I am a born CBC (Canadian Born Chinese)
    but now I live in the United States,
    so most people assume i am ABC (American Born CHinese)

    something funny in my situation...my grandparents were here first(fist generation)...but they went back so my parents(second generation) were born back in HK, and my parents came here again...but i was born back in HK...so officially i'am a first generation chinese immigrant instead of third.....
