I’m Chinese, and I’m from Beijing, the capital of China. My family can be considered middle-class in China. I’m a female, and I’m the single child in our family. We don’t have a religious belief in our family, even though my dad is considered a Buddhist but he doesn’t follow the rules of Buddhism strictly. All Chinese are considered communists. I’m the first generation attending college, but my parents believe receiving higher education is necessary. But they were too poor to go to college when they were young.
