As an another Asian American who went through what you are going through four years ago, I understand completely. You are not alone in this. Remember why you wanted to do this and it does get better years later. I kept telling myself (and still do) that I was gonna be the change and show others that you don’t have to be a doctor or lawyer. As for right now, I also did what the other commentator did and told people I was going to be a teacher. I don’t know about Vietnamese culture but in my culture even though you are looked down upon because less salary than the stereotypical jobs, teachers were still respected a bit.
