Asian Eyes

For some reason more and more people are asking if I'm part Asian (usually Vietnamese). They say I have sort-of slanty eyes. The first time someone asked was just a few months ago (maybe only like a month?). I do believe I mentioned it in one of my bloggings... Maybe that was facebook? Both? Pretty sure the latter. This girl (while I was at work) asked what I am. She thought German/Vietnamese. I said no. I'm not Asian at all. Maybe really really really far back. (Like my dad says he found some link in the line to Attila the Hun... I think that's who he said). If that's the case then I must be very recessive in my genes. The red hair, the pale skin, the freckles, bluegreen eyes....and "slanty" eyes. Zac's roommate Chris & his girlfriend Rhianna both asked him if I'm part Asian. At different times. How weird is that? Anyway, I'm more Polish and Danish. Very Scandinavian. And the Celtic stuff. Love the Celtic stuff. Funny that I don't look very Polish. What do you guys think? What nationality do I resemble the most? (Don't say American, cuz there isn't really a set of traits that is just American! LOL)

We're having a bunch of work meetings coming up in the next few weeks. There's a manager's meeting. A complex meeting. Not sure if there's going to be a meeting for all of skate or not, yet. I'm pretty sure that at the manager's meeting we're going to talk about what is going on in October! AND we're talking about COSTUMES! I'm so excited! I've been thinking about themes today! Can't wait to see what we come up with! I really hope the guys will not be lame and will actually dress up this year!



I want to go get some material and make a tanktop dress (or tshirt dress). I could just use one of the shirts I already have. I just need skirt material. :]
