    I always wonder about other people's nationalities, and alot of other people wonder about mine, so what better than a thread to take off topic.....errr...talk about this subject?

    Ok, i'll start it off:


    Well, I was born in the United States. My background is from Lebanon. My family is Lebanese (parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles). So eh, yeah. I can speak Arabic, not write it. Umm....I've been to Lebanon a few times as well, and it was a great and fun experience....well, that's my story.

    My dad's side of the family are Italian while my mom's side is German or Hungarian. I think I also have French blood in me. We thought we were part Czechoslovakian there for a while, but I dunno if that's true.

    lol. You're Italermanarian. (sorry, I like to run things toether)

    My grandmother's maiden name is Irish, O'Dwyer, and the name Norman is scandanavian. But then again everyone from Newfoundland has Irish/English blood in them, we were a part of England until 1949.

    So I'm Scandirishavian.

    I'm born in the United States, but both of my parents are Chinese so I speak two languages. My parents came from different parts of China and they got married in the U.S.
    Can you guess which two languages I speak?

    I am from the US and have lived here all my 16 years. My parents are from Cambodia, but we're Chinese, because my grandparents are from some places in China. But my one grandmother lives in Vietnam.

    I'm actually a clone of every nationality on earth. I can change my appearance at will. No, I'm belgian, french, german, and something else. So I'm like a Belencherman or something.

    I was born in the U.S. but my parents were born in Nicaragua, Central America.

    So I'm Nicaraguan (it's Hispanic) and a teeny teeny bit Mexican 'cause of my Grandma on my dad's side.

    EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE thinks I'm Indian when they see me. :rolleyes:
