This jade was my grandfather\u2019s way of \u201cprotecting\u201d my mother and wishing her success, as cabbages symbolize wealth and white jades symbolize prosperity, success, and good luck.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>What does it say about you, your family, or the associated people?<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My parents constantly tell me about their struggles when they first immigrated to the US. They started with little to no money, moved around a lot, and worked hard to create a comfortable life for us. I am always thankful for the life I have now, and believe it is all due to my parents hard work and struggles. Now, I believe that this white jade does not only represent my grandfather\u2019s protection and love, I believe this jade also represents my mothers strength and growth as she developed a career and family in the US.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>How are you going to present this story?

What do you think a cabbage symbolizes in Chinese culture?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I will introduce how my grandfather decided to give my mother a white jade and what it symbolizes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I will then talk about my parents\u2019 struggles immigrating to the US and what this jade might symbolize now, and why it\u2019s a precious object to my family and I.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, I will talk about how this story impacts me &#8211; how I felt as an Asian American at a young age and how it has changed; how I am thankful for all my parents have done for me. I will ask if others have similar experiences as members of immigrant families.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Do you plan to interview other people? *(check the requirements of interviews below)<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I plan to interview my mother.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Prepare a few images to post along with your proposal on the WordPress site.<\/b><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-132 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/chi302-sp22\/%e8%8a%b7%e7%91%9c-proposal\/img_5924-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/chi302-sp22\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/758\/2022\/03\/IMG_5924-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/chi302-sp22\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/758\/2022\/03\/IMG_5924-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/chi302-sp22\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/758\/2022\/03\/IMG_5924-1-280x280.jpg 280w, https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/chi302-sp22\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/758\/2022\/03\/IMG_5924-1-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-134'>\n\t\t\t\tWhite Jade Carved as a Cabbage\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is it you want to talk about?
