I grew up in a home where the only forms of communication is Chinese. My grandmother (who passed away) raised me. My grandmother and mother does not know how to speak English, and my father only knows a little bit. I can speak fluent Cantonese, a little bit of Mandarin, and a bit of Toisan (one of many Chinese dialects). I did not learn English until very late in elementary school and became fluent in English around the 4th grade. I love listening to music in my native language and other languages such as Japanese and Korean. I love watching Asian Drama shows and anime.
