“Really?” they say. “But you look so different!” The fact that I am tan, with wavy hair and a decidedly not stick figure physically distinguishes me from my Japanese brethren, even my own family. I’ve been asked if I was part Korean, Chinese, Mexican, Filipina, and probably lots of other things. Nope, full Japanese here. I still speak Japanese. In addition to Japanese, I speak Spanish with some fluency and French on a very basic conversational level. I currently study Italian. I hope

English just in China (“English Language Teaching and Learning at the National Level in China” 5). In lower education schools, such as primary and secondary school, English is intensively taught and studied. English is one of the optional subjects on a Chinese exam called China’s National College Entrance Examine, which is similar to the SATs taken by students in America (10).

friend and I went in blissfully unaware of what would be coming next. Now to be perfectly honest, this was not my first time eating Chinese food. However, this was my first time eating authentic Chinese food made in the traditional fashion. It might as well have been my very first time eating any kind of food.

What is Jeet Kune Do? Simply put, it's English translation is "way of the intercepting fist." Bruce studies all types of fighting from American Boxing to Thai Kickboxing. His simple philosophy was rather than block a punch and hit back with two distinct motions, why not intercept and hit in one, fluid stroke. Fluidity was the ideal. "Try and obtain a nicely-tied package of water," Bruce would taunt. "Just like water, we must keep moving on," Inosanto reitterates. "For
