Jeremy Lin.

For those who follow me on twitter or are considered my intimate few, they would know how obsessed I am with JEREMY LIN at the moment, as is half the world!!!

This 23 year old is the first Asian to play in the NBA as well as the first Harvard graduate to play..... Look, I don't like him because he's ugly, I like him because he's Asian, and he did well for himself. It makes me reflect on where my life is going because he's obviously making the most of his. He stuck to Asian traditions and graduated from what I consider the most prestige college in America as well as he has now become an NBA player. I don't follow basketball, and I don't know a lot about it, but even noobs like me know it's not easy to play in the NBA which is why I'm so in awe of him. He's what success looks like in an Asian person. It really is inspiring and it makes me realize that I need to prioritize school and after that I can do whatever the fuck I want.
On top of that he's a really good player. He's won 7 games in a row and his next game is I think tomorrow or the day after! so excited for him ^_^
