I was born in Australia and have lived here all my life. I guess that makes me and Aussie.
My mum was born in Finland and my dad's parents were both from Italy. I think I'm more Finnish than my other backgrounds. I've got a pretty calm temperament (When it's not being unbalanced by teen hormones
) and I'm fairly quiet and not that social. My sister is much more the Italian, she is really exubernat and talkative. Quite the opposite of me I guess.

I am half Polish and half Sicilian. Both sets of my grandparents used to argue in their native languages so we couldn't understand what they were saying until my dad told me what a few things his folks were saying in polish and so now I can cuss in polish and say a few things in italian too! What a legacy I got left with!

I am proudly 100% Asian!
I actually calculated this while I was about to sleep:
My mom's 1/4 Chinese and 3/4 Vietnamese, and my dad's full Chinese. That makes me 5/8 Chinese and 3/8 Vietnamese.
You had no idea how much I was shouting and beaming when China killed in gymnastics and diving during the summer Beijing Olympics.

I am 1/4 Hungarian, 1/8 Swedish, and then a mix of Austrian, Irish, Scottish, and German.
You would think that because I am primarily Hungarian, I would look a little more like it. It comes from my dad's side, and he has a darker complexion and really dark hair. The Swedish comes from my mom, but she has very tan skin, too. Four of my five siblings and I have SUPER fair skin, and we ALL have blue eyes. If you look at our parents, and then at us, you wouldn't believe it. Haha. My older brother is the only tan child of all of us. I hate him. Well, I hate that he got the tan gene. xD

Why do you have such interesting backgrounds and I'm 100% German and in fact in a rather boring way? Not even platinum blonde and blue eyes, just dark blonde and brown eyes. Pretty boring =(
I know Pel, I had also noticed how many great backgrounds we have here. I'm on an international school so I'm a bit used to it, but I still find it great.
