Hmm,sometimes I wish I was more exotic. Nothing I can do! They should make an operation that like lets you temporarily transform into different ethnicities. I'm glad I'm half-Welsh though. Someone on another site raised a good point that we tend to focus overly on our differences and we only really have superficial differences.
I'm like 10 different things. I can't relate to any heritage. I just know where I'm from.

I live in America. I have a lot of French blood as well as German. There is also Native American on both sides of my family. ^.^

Being mixed race is a good thing. I want concrete ethnic groups[sorry if this is sounding like an interrogation].

I understand. That's why my answer of "American" at first was tongue and cheek. Because I truly can't tell you what all I am because I don't know. But that's not uncommon in America.

I'm American as well, but decended from German, Irish, Scottish, Austrian, Swiss, possibly Italian but we only managed to trace the tree back to 1313.

LOL 1313 is pretty good. Here when someone says they're gonna do their family tree they mean look at the censuses till about the 17 or 1800s and that's it!
