^ Problem with that is that it's soooo far back that the fractional amount is too small in this day and age to be considered African descent.

I'm Irish, Scottish, Swedish, Norweigan, and German.
So many people in my school have asked me if I'm asian though because my eyes are so much like theirs...it's been a little awkward because I don't look asian at all..

Im half Spanish half Mexican. With jewish roots. eh. Boring. I mean there is really no difference in Spanish and Mexican blood. at least hardly any. As far as the Jewish side, well, we are very common here so not interesting.

scottish is THE most common heritage here. There are SO many people with a last name starting with Mac (ex. MacDonald). guess that's why it's named New Scotland.

i'm half polish, and then english/german/french (such a small % of french it's ridiculous.
i've really only been exposed to my polish heritage though, because they're all direct from poland and continue to live that lifestyle.
people always think i'm scandinavian though, because i'm really pale and have light gray/blue eyes.
although, being american means that nobody cares what you are, because mostly everyone is a some crazy amalgamation of several ethnicities.
in my family we have polish, english, french, german, african-american, venezuelan, mexican, russian, irish, spanish, and indian.
weird-no asians!

I'm mostly German and Italian. I have ancestries of Ukranian, Czech, Slovakian, Polish, Russian, Irish and a few other things. My friends laugh at me because I get my red hair from my Italian side =P

LOL, that's because the Scots migrated EVERYWHERE!! I'm part Scottish, but my last name has no 'Mac' in it, so it's sometimes hard to tell.
I'm also British and Mennonite (feel free to ask, i won't go into it now)... so all Caucasian, but not from a million places. It's too complex to say all that though, I usually tell people i'm 100% Canadian, because that's what being Canadian means i guess. A mix of everything.

I'm full Filipinoooo. I've got some Chinese, Spanish, and Indian too. But my parents are mistaken for Chinese and sometimes Japanese o___o And then people mistake me for Mexican. I dunno why but the Mexicans here in Cali think I'm Mexican while the Mexicans in Mexico thought I was Chinese. Odddd.
