They are things she wants, but will most likely not get. This is related to culture because she is wanting to be American, and going against her Chinese heritage. One external conflict is her mother didn't want her to want to be american, that is why she gave her daughter the miniskirt in beige tweed, while saying that she must be Chinese on the inside and to love who she is.
