Bamindian

I think it will be hard to come back the same American teen I left as. I have now picked up a bit of Brazilian culture and a lot of Indian culture and have come out this new ethnicity…”Bamindian”. We are the type who talk with a lot of energy and volume while also being very drawn back and quiet. We eat lots of rice and lots of beans any way you look at it. We believe in having personal space but also in hugging constantly. We try to stay away from personal questions but find ourselves asking them anyways. As you can see this cultural mix brings on a multitude of confusing contradictions but let me tell you this. It is a heck of a good time being Bamindian despite the spinning head.
It is especially fun when your name is “Alys” because Brazilians tend to put the hard “e” sound at the end of a lot of their words which changes my name to Alysee which then makes all the Indian girls fall apart into laughter as in Hindi the word “alysee” means “lazy”. You can imagine the clever puns being created over here. This mix is nothing but laughter at the end of the day
