People speak to me in Spanish (which I do not speak), people have asked if I'm black, white, Italian, Indian, Persian, and the list goes on..... A make-up artist asked me yesterday if I was Creole. I'm mixed too. My mother's family is white (Italian American) and I've never met my father but he was either black or a mix of Sicilian & black. I DO have a booty though! A BIG booty;) I have combo hair - it is super curly & thick. I used to get it straightened, but WAY to much work these days. I hated being mixed as a child- I never fit it & never identified with any of my peers. I remember being teased in grade school for being "brown." I was a Brownie (you know, before your old enough to be a Girl Scout), well my friends teased me & told me I should be a Brownie b/c I am brown. I ran home from school crying. So silly to get upset over this! Of course, now I love being "brown" :) .-= Christel´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.healingappetite.com/2010/04/rise-and-shine/" rel="nofollow">Rise and Shine</a> =-.

I am so white I'm practically albino, and no one's bangin' down my door. Being pear shaped is the bane of my existence, and I'm not shocked when I read these studies that pear shaped women live longer yet are more depressed than their apple counterparts. I would give you my entire ass if I could, m'dear. My butt/thighs are a size 14 and my waist is a size 6. I am so white I’m practically albino, and no one’s bangin’ down my door.

I have a butt, a big one even, but I have the thighs to go with it too. I'm always scared if I lose the thighs, I'll lose the butt, so I'll have to bookmark this for future reference if my apple bottom decides to leave me. I have no idea where the ass came from though... no one else in my family has it on either side. They all got boobs instead. Sigh... I'm probably adopted. .-= Kaytee´s last blog ..<a href="http://kayteesayseat.com/2009/09/quick-post-for-quick-chili/" rel="nofollow">Quick Post for Quick Chili</a> =-. Umm, you’re hysterical.
