I don't say a lot of things just never really came up in a relevant discussion. I've mentioned it elsewhere, but not here, but I sort of grew up with Chinese step relatives. If my mom didn't freak out when the first guy proposed to her, my biological father would have been Chinese, not Spanish.
I didn't say it was wrong. Heck, there's a lot of holes in my ancestral past, I wouldn't be surprised at this point. My great grandmother on my mother's dad's side looked sorta kinda Chinese, but I say that's because she was a mestizo. Tons of Amerindians who are at least 50% Amerindian with little to no African ancestry look very East Asian (China, Korea, Japan, not India or Pakistan). One of my coworkers is an example who is probably 100% Mayan Mexican she looks like a Korean with a dark tan.
Well that's who you are but I am white so I would be shocked to find something like that. I don't come from a country that had alot of migration.
I'm quite happy about the current lukewarm and rainy weather. One thing I noticed this summer is that sunny weather slowly exhausts me, even though I enjoy a completely sunny day from time to time.
