Default Re: Have you ever been called wannabe Asian?

Personally, I don't really care what others say. XD; They can call me an asian wannabe, japanese wannabe etc but that's just being ridiculous considering I AM asian (filipino/mexican/arabian/japanese) and my asianess dominates over my whole look and stuff but it doesn't make sense calling someone asian an asian wannabe. >.>;;

I remember my friends would call me a japanese wannabe and I'd be like.."Why would I WANT to be japanese when I already am?" Then, they'd shut up. Idk..I just think it's hilarious. lol! My sister calls me that too and it makes NO SENSE since she's part japanese too!! @.@; rofl.

I have to admit though I enjoy anime, manga, dramas etc and everything stereotypical to Japan BUT..I ALSO love other asian countries. I LOVE Korea, China, Cambodia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam etc. and I love studying everything about them~ I love learning new things about these countries..NOT just japan. My friends seem to think I'm stuck on just japanese stuff..it's not true and it's really annoying.:/ Which is why most of the time I just ignore these comments and don't respond to them because it's not really worth explaining over and over again. But, sometimes if they do piss me off I end up telling them to just back off and I start my long process of a lecture/speech to them about how much i love all asian countries and their culture. XDDD; Ahaha..and when that speech is over they all just have a "O.O" face. AHA! THAT'S RIGHT! GET OFF MY BACK!! LOL.

Hmm..well there's this one example I have like my one close friend Timmy who is always blabbing about Japan and how he loves it so much etc etc but doesn't know anything about other asian countries it makes me feel like he's really ignorant.:/ I love him but I want him to experience and learn about other countries..not just Japan. Idk..it all just seems so narrow-minded to me and it gets me annoyed rather quickly.. is that weird?! @.@; hahah.
