I always get asked if I am Filipino , but I'm not ?
I'm a Thai girl , but being born and raised in California and doing ALOT of outdoor sports has really made me tan.And I like that .I guess the American social norm for tan people is normal.But when it comes to Asians they always ask me if i'm filipino.I've seen some filipino people and they don't look like me.(for some off reason i tanned in a golden brown yellowish color not brown) .And when i tell people I'm Thai they don't believe me.Could it be possible because I'm Thai,Chinese, and Indian ?
Just wanted some answers :)
Please no hate or discrimination against any races.Thanks !
6 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups1 decade agoCould i run the 400m and other distance events ?
I want to do the 400m to just do for fun .I'm a distance runner and cross country runner so i'm most likely going to do the 1 and 2 mile for sure.Also the 800.I know that the 400m counts as a sprint and i was curious about me doing it and actually being good at it.Many people at my school say its different muscles and such and they aren't sport medicine doctors or doctors in general so i don't know if what they're saying is actually true.

3 AnswersRunning1 decade agoWhy do i get insulted ,but when i get back at someone with a good comeback they get mad ?
Okay so heres my little story.One day i didn't go wax my eyebrows for like 2-3 months,and i had my hair up from my face and my "friend" Jon said "you seriously needa go wax your eyebrows" and i was like OMG! you did not just say that to me,so then i slapped him in the face not thinking too much about it.Then another day i was near him at lunch and said "Hey,when you said i had hairy nasty eyebrows don't you think that hurts my self confidence and feelings ?" and he said "Well i just say it as i see it ." Then i followed up by saying "If stacey had nasty eyebrows would you say the same thing ?" and he said "Don't go there." by the way Stacey is just code for the girls name he likes.What i don't understand is why he would insult me but would never ever think about insulting the girl he likes.Is it a respect issue or something ?
2 AnswersEtiquette1 decade agoWhat to do when my neighbor just randomly touches my dog ?
okay so here is my story . I bought a siberian husky puppy a couple of weeks ago.My neighbor just got his dog before me by a couple of weeks.For some odd reason he wants our dogs to be "friends" .I'm taking my dog through training right now and the trainer said that i shouldn't interact my dogs with unknown strangers or dogs.I don't want my dog to play with his dog because 1. his dog never takes a shower.2. I don't know if it has all of its vaccinations yet.3. he doesn't have a dog license. Tonight is the third or second time that he has come ONTO my property right near my fence and started to play with my dog and calling his name.He has his own dog to play with why is he doing this ?!?!! im going to have a serious talk with him the next time this happens.Do you guys have any advice for me ? I'm just really upset because he'd have the nerve to do that.I'm also scared that if i cause problems with him he will give my dog something to eat and kill my dog.

2 AnswersFriends1 decade agojealousy ? or hatred ? people with knowledge plz help :)?
I have this friend at school and i think i might hate her . I dont know how i feel nowadays . At school , we joined the school's girl's basketball team and like i'm always point guard ,but i have to share my spot with her . The coach is always laughing at her jokes and everything and it bothers me . When she has problems the coach talks with her during practice and another coach has to come in and coach us instead(the one coaching us isnt that great a coach). she also thinks she is good at everything . she think she sings good and she exaggerates her life to make it seem like its horrible ,but i've been to her house plenty times and her mom is really nice and stuff . she also started cutting herself too ,but stopped . lets just say she is in the 'in' crowd and thinks shes good at everything . personally i think im a better basketball player.she always says thing like , when i get older i want to become famous . and im like why ? and she is like because i want people to look up to me and i want to be a role model . and i was thinking ,you dont have to be famous to be looked upon and a role model. just join a community club or something. and her shirt is always showing her cleavage line (not that im looking or anything) ,but role models dont do that . and she always tries to be top person . for the soccer season she got put as captain ,but since the coach wanted me to be captain i got excited and accidently told her and never got to be captain . i dont know what she said to my soccer coach . and like see is always thinking she is captain of the basketball team even though SHE ISN'T!!! and she gets all vocal but has no leadership . she just bosses people around . i think i have more leadership and responsiblity then her because im in key club and thats a very responsible role to play and all she does is just go out with her friends every friday and like she is just taking all the limelight even though she doesn't deserve it . i think she needs to lay off
sorry for writing a lot
