As a third culture child, particular experiences hurt. As a Malaysian, ethically Indian, living in Thailand, time and time again I felt as though I was different and had not one to relate to. I felt shame to not be able to speak the various different languages my fully equipped parents could yet sometimes was embarrassed by my own culture. The video is a animated speech representation of more of the experiences I had. However, also concisely how I have come to accept my cultural identity in all its diversity and how truly amazing all are acknowledging myself as the multitude of third culture identity and global awareness.
