agree.

You got lucky, and then unlucky.  Normally it would be noisy to live among students.

People in this thread who express most hatred toward Chinese are mostly Chinese themselves, or Chinese-affiliated, if you want to stop me calling you Chinese.  This is one of the qualities of our people -- self-hatred. We can comment on specific phenomena.  But if you're pointing finger to a...

Thanks to the globalization.

I'm with you on all the points above.  But tell me what is the language from Taiwan?  If your response is traditional Chinese, and where do you thing it came from?  We're the same people.  Even though you may not approve some of the things they do or have done, we have the same root.

The difference is when thing happens from China, it gets multiplied because of it's 1.3 billion population.

To add some fire to it.  The Chinese "mainlander" FCB today are more or less like Rich Taiwanese coming over to US 20-30 years ago.  They're all "???" (got rich in very short time).  There are common characters for this group of people regardless of nationality or ethnicity. I can care less...

I'm sorry and worried to hear this.  Saratoga is only 1/2 built and probably 1/4 filled.  It would be worse when it's built-out. Any activities kids have at playground should be understandable because they're kids.  That been said, I do feel sometimes I want to tell them some disciplines.  But...

Many helpful info, thanks. Same to other posts too. I've read your post about lender and I've sent a PM to him.  He suggest in another couple weeks it will be the time to start loan process.  But I guess if I find a lender who can offer early lock time, I should do it now. Since landscaping is...

There is a distinction here.  I think you're talking about Chinese GOVERNMENT, not Chinese PEOPLE, although I agree government is made of people too.  But there is still a distinction. irvinehomeshopper, I can see you have a lot of anger towards Chinese, part of it government.  I'm with you. ...

When is your closing date?

I'm just little more than two months away from (estimated) closing.  Now I'm constantly thinking about when to start working on loan, home insurance, and upgrades and worry if it's too early, or too late to do them.  I wanted to start loan process as soon as possible because of rising interest...

I think they started taking reservation during March - April time frame when you know which school you kid is going to.  March - April was the time for new school registration for September.  There were meetings regarding Kindergartner or newly entered students in general.  I forgot what they...

I can't help but find a little humor in this.  "it is a good thing that we dont kill animals inhumanely." = "it is a good thing that we do kill animals humanely." It's ok that we kill animals because we kill them humanely. Sorry qwerty.  I'm not trying to pick on you.  I'm picking on the...

It's likely.  He would be deeply insulted by this, regardless the fact that he is or not.

I thought I was narrow-minded. I do myself have some negative opinions toward These Chinese FCB too.  But please don't use FCB to describe all Chinese.  Not even all FCB are Chinese, let alone all Chinese FCB represents Chinese.  Are you mistaken FCB for "Foreign Chinese Buyers"?

I wish I had learn this before my upgrades.  It was $150 for the keyless entry and I chose to upgrade it through the builder.

Same feeling here.  The Shady Canyon blocks the only way around that area.  I hate that!  People should found ways to get "around" that.

I know now that Korean brands provide more for less money.  But how is the quality?  How long have you used your frig or washer/dryer while you've been happy with them?  The good-old american appliances used to stand for many years trouble free.  I dare not say the same to the american brands...

Any one heard of Woodbury Community Park iPAC, one of City of Irvine's After-School Program?  Our kid is going to Stonegate Elementary in September.  But Stonegate CDC is full and have >100 students on their waiting list.  They refer us to the Woodbury Community Park iPAC.  I couldn't get any...
