Chinese everywhere are mostly obnoxious. XD
Both your parents are of Chinese ancestry, or...?
Yeah, of Chinese ancestry. They're both from northeastern China (though my dad's family is actually from the south, but whatever).
I think the international students from China just have huge egos or something. I know like one guy from China, that's a full-on international student, that I don't find obnoxious. The other Asians I've interacted with so far here that didn't want me to strangle them for their obnoxiousness were either from like Thailand or the Philippines or somewhere not China, or have been in the US for a significant amount of time.
I guess it's just a sudden shift from what I interacted with in high school. In high school, most of the Asian population have been in the US since elementary school (with parents being grad students), if not born in the US (and a lot of them, I've known since elementary school or middle school, lol). Very few (only like one or two) have only been in the US for less than like two years. But then, enter college, and bam, almost all of them are international students. I've only met one guy here that is Asian that has clearly been in the US for long enough to seem normal.
