[quote="Kokoro Daisuke"]Chinese and Japanese. >_> My ancestors took over/invaded my other ancestors in WWII. o_o]
Filipino and miscellaneous whiteboy. Sorry, but we SEAsian types do not distinguish between Italians, Anglo-Saxons, Germans, Franks, Slavs, etc. Just like Italians, Anglo-Saxons, Germans Franks and Slavs lump CJK's and the rest of (East) Asia as "Asians."
My ancestors killed some Portugese guy, then had their rear ends handed to them by the Spanish for three centuries, then the Americans for half of one, and the Japanese for a very brief hiccough of time. (I think if the Japanese won the war, I would be speaking Japanese today). My maternal grandfather's ancestors must have escaped some Great Potato Famine from somewhere. And Grandfather himself deserted the US Army until Harry S Truman granted amnesty to all [s]cowards[/s] deserters some time in the fifties. Meanwhile, Grandfather fathered Mom and her siblings. Then he disappeared somewhere in Ohio.

I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Let me alone, for my days are but a breath.
