text: As I spent my elementary, middle school and high school years attending public schools in the Toronto District School Board, I realized more and more the stereotype that exists of East Asian students being studious, good at math and science and being overall overachievers.

The use of the term illustrates a common conception of Asians in the schooling system in Ontario, the model minority myth.

This man was a goatherd from Tongguzbasti. He'd gone out into the desert in search of tamarisk, along with a camel for the load. At midday he had some bread and water and lay down for a sleep. When he woke there was a storm the like of which he'd never seen before. There was nothing for it but to hunker down and make the best of it; but at some point - whether it was day or night he couldn't say - he found himself on his feet, shouting and screaming at the noise, and walking for what must have been miles.'
