Today we had to figure how just how politically correct our friends were. When I think of being politically correct however, I think of using correct terms for things and not being disrespectful to other races/genders/cultures, all of that stuff. But apparently the book is talking about how diverse your group of friends is.
For the most part, my friends are Caucasian. Or white. Whatever you want to call it. But I do have a lot of black friends; one of my closest guy friends is black and Jehova's Witness like I mentioned before. I don't have any Hispanic friends. I have a lot of Asian friends though, and from all different parts of Asia. Taiwan, Korea, China, Philippines, and I kind of used to have a Japanese friend...but apparently not anymore. I do have one friend who is half Middle Eastern, but it's not like we hang out or anything so I wouldn't consider him in my "circle" of friends. I recently made a lot of new Danish friends because Danish exchange students came and stayed over here for 10 days and I hosted one. It was awesome. I went and applied for my passport today so that I can go to Denmark in the spring! I'm so excited. Anyways, I would say I have a pretty diverse group of friends. I guess it could be a little better...I don't have any Hispanic friends or Indian or Native American. But I definitely haven't limited myself to just one race. I'm actually proud of my "circle" of friends.
More updates to come later.
