Nepalese in the other States are more subtle and well organized with their local Nepalese communities. IF not by meeting often, they tried to keep in touch with thier frined and other Nepalese by phones. However, Nepalse in California and the Bay area are just the opposite.

In the first place, it is hard to recognize Nepalese in the Bay area by face. They either look like Chinese or Maxican or Indian. Just look at our faces, no body can guess if you are from Nepal. Even if I meet them by chance, they avoid further conversation for ever. It's not like I am new here in the bay area and needed their help. It is just about keeping our community together-- by exchenging a few good talks.

I guess, its time to get back with Nepalese. We could be help to each other. Well, if you guys live in the bay area, just reply to this message. We need to be with our people as much as we are with others. What do you say?

GS

money..money..there is..money... ummm... every dollar counts.. Why I waste my time talking with you...
Damn!... why the hell I am replying... What would I get talking to you?... I want money...


may be this is the reason...
Well, I too new to US... and I also have the same feeling that most Nepalese here doesn't talk...
Damn!!... who cares !!!

Another reason... may be you are not a girl...
You simply don't have anything to give them...
Ignore them... why the hell you want to stick with them?

hay guys, too many nepali is not good either,some time if they need to throw the stuff then they will say come and get it right away they don't even ask you need that stuff or not, even if you says i don't need then they will say can you take if you don't need then you can throw it and they don't even forget that they have given some stuff to you even you never use it and throw it away.....and by that they try to use you like can you look after my child when i am working ,they don't even care other has work or not, if they don't know how to look after there own kids why do they have give birth,in state of that i can feed you a dinner... bla bla bla .... and in dinner they will feed leftover.....


i know every nepali is not like that but i know some of them. Thats why sometime i don't want to see that type of nepali face.
so guys,you are lucky you don't have to deal with theses kind of people

u r rt. yonepali...
i think nepali society here is busy/lazy ....
i havent met any nepali here..
last year i called one of the member of nepali society ..she said the dashain party has been canceled due to insufficient fund and nobody showed interest in that..
and the most bitter experience was..
when i was new here i happened to call one nepali, i asked how many nepalese r here?
she said "we dont waant to hang out with nepalese so i dont know"....
then i lost interest to find any nepalese.. anyway..
thats my experience..there might be nice people around here..or even she could be a nice person , if u meet in person ..i dont know..that was just a first incident with one so-called american-nepali...

he guys. i am in Long Beach. E-mail me if any wanna hangout during weekends.
yo nepali- i never felt like you here in California...its been 1 year ...awesome...friends.

I lived in SF Bay area for many years and made great friends. If you cannot make friends does not make all Nepali bad. Obiviously there are lots of Nepali in the bay area and you will have to learn how to make friends.

You can start with a book How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie.
LOL

Hey yonepali what are you talking about, we nepali in bay are also cool and united
and get togeter,If you have time come tonight and joind dashain party .Dashain is the biggest festival of Nepali Hindus. Nepal being an agricultural country, Nepalis get to take a break during the month of Aswin and Kartik when the ropai is done and the fields are covered with golden rice plants. For fifteen days there are gatherings around various temples, celebrations include high swinging swings and animal sacrifices.

Dashain actually is not only Hindu festival in Nepal but probably because of its timing it is a national period of celebration and thus is celebrated by Nepalis of all caste and creed throughout the country.

We have come so far away from home but still, the golden memories of Dashain bring smiles to us. To honor such a festival and the spirits of being Nepalis, NANC and Annapurna Lion’s Club of Berkeley have collaborated to present to you this year’s Dashain celebration. We invite you all to participate in our TIKA, enjoy the traditional Dashain delicacies brought to you by Taste of the Himalayas, Berkeley, and enjoy the dance competition. We would appreciate if you would attend dressed in Dashain colors (red) and traditional Nepali costumes. Details are as follows:

bro ma ta Pheonix ma chu hai ........ I am not frm bay but I do have some idea why they aren't talking to you....... all coz it's the most expenise place of US and there is money out there........

better not waste money for someone............ I hope and you know what nepalese are here to earn money not to make friends ....... bhanera bhaneko thiyoo kosai le malai......

well I hope that may be the reason for that...........

Thanks for your response-some genuine some not. We know that our lives in the US is busy. I am buys too with a full time job and a part-time law school. What else can be BUSY than this. But I stil want to hangout with Nepalese some time during weekends. Right? I can make my time to meet them.

It's not like that I am new here. I have been living here more than 5 years and of course I have friends from other walks of life. Obviously, I would feel great to hangout the and talk in with Nepalese as speaking Nepali.

People say that there are plenty of nepalese living in the bay area, but for me none. For instance, somebody had asked me to find a person who can work as a front desk receptionist in San Francisco. I talked to my friends and asked them if they knew any. No body knew any. My feel was to find a Nepalese and hook him/her up with the easy and well paying job.

This job might still be available if you live in san Francisco and have a social security. Nothing else is needed. So let me, I can check it out.

yonepali..now you gonna have so many nepalese friends... and you will really find them true.

joeyy007us@yahoo.com

did u made it to dashin festival in vannuys???

i was expecting people from all walk of life yesterday..but not much gathering, especially IT walas.....by the way I happeped to stop in one of nepali family's apartment few weeks ago..and asked them how is Dashain here?...it will be my first time so i m excited..r u guys coming? then he said "pahila ek choti gaiyo tes pachi gaiyeko chaina..khasai ke huncha ra?" if all of us say "khasai ke huncha ra?" then there wont be any progress in nepali community here in bay area...like Mani Nepali jee's bhasan "hami haruley bhaichara ko bikas garnu cha......" (in a similar tone of Madhav Kumar Nepal)...
that will remain only in words....

Not only in california, this happens everywhere else. Some of nepali ppl don't want to get to know their own kind. This is normal. I have heard ppl saying," Hey! let's not go to that gas station. A nepali guy works there. If we go there, he will try to start a conversation wit us."

well mero job abo khei month ma finish huncha.. well I am not going to do that work but thanks alot for that yo nepali.......

well I hope you'll get lots of nepali people......

Maybe because Nepalis like to compare themselves with each other. Happens way too much. Falana le ghar kinyo re, dhiskana le yo business gardaicha re, yesle yetti kamaucha re, tyesle tyetti padheko cha re.... yadda yadda yadda. I guess this happens in all ethnic communities, but for us Nepalis, seems like it happens more with us.

I love hanging out with Nepalis, but this compare-garne-bani chahi patakkai man pardaina.

This could be one of the reasons why it is what it is in Bay Area.
