Japanese-American - 06-27-2011, 06:38 PM

Hey I'm Terri..Born and raised in the south..well technically North Carolina..now in the Pacific Northwest..I'm 6th generation Japanese-American in my family. I do not speak the language at all..we speak "hayseed" around these parts lol I think I'll never lose my accent lol but that's okay..I guess you could say I never cared about my native culture at all growing up until as of late.

So chances are if you speak or talk to me about anything Japanese I'm probably going to respond to you in a clueless manner because that's all i know..is American.

My grandpa served in WWII in the USMC and of course his family and mine were all put into the internment camps as most know about that difficult time in history. I think it's interesting though about my family's history.
