    English, Scotch-Irish, German, French Canadian. I've lived in the Montgomery for all my life and even though this is so, I really have not embrace Southern culture. It's too tightly wrapped in religion and church, steeped in backwards beliefs and bias. I love Irish culture so I jumped when I got the chance to go there. Maybe I'll move there and pick up an Irish accent.

    I was born in Russia, moved to Ohio State bout 5 years ago, lived there for a year, moved to Colorado, am currently staying here.

    My family goes waaaaay back in Russia. We were pretty damn rich back In the days, when Stalin was still a ruller. But because of all the conflicct that's happened in Russia, i guess my family just went down-hill. But it's cool.

    I get my PALE skin from Ireland, my darker skin (I'm the darkest in all my family) from France, my love for nature from the Pawnee Indians, and my 'loose' nature from Bohemia (Czech Reublic, to be exact). Oh, and I LOVE sausage (I'm German, too!).

    My grandparents are Chinese, my parents are Vietnamese, and I was born in America.
    So a little of each.

    Born in Belgium, and pretty much full-blood. Although there are some slight hints towards southern French or maybe even Spanish from my grandmother's side, but since that remains a mystery, I stick with Belgian.

    I'm just Irish, no mixes really but when you consider Irish history I'm sure it's not really true. :)

    Well I'm adopted so technically I don't know the details. But I'm waay pale with red hair and I live in the USA so I'm guessing British/Irish/Nordic or something like that.
