asians vs westerns

most of the people in my company are married. the conversations that we have revolved around family lives. dont get me wrong- im not bored. its nice to hear them talk about their kids and im envious how they are able to handle both work and family.

there was an extra pair of movie passes for the black knight last sat. i asked around a few people in the company. one of them lamented that its been a loooooong while since she last caught a movie- probably >2 years, ever since her kid was borned. i know of another person who was going to go with her husband. she has 2 kids and one of them is <1 year old. she has told me before sat is always a day out, with her husband (minus kids) and friends, while sun is a day with her children. she is not asian. the first lady i mentioned is asian.

another coworker will go out and chill with her friends on a weekday after work, at least once a week, or she has dinner plans at least once a week too- either with friends or with hubby. she is not asian either. she has a young boy, 3 years old i think.

cant help but note the difference in mentality.
