here it is
50% Filipino & 50% Cherokee/Jewish/German/English
This is me and my mom.
All my life I have been told I look like my father, and nothing like my mom. Yet I definitely identify more with my asian side, but I’m not ‘good’ enough for my filipino side and I’m too asian for the white side of my family.
I was born and raised in Hawaii where everyone you meet is practically a mix of something and something else. I was teased an awful lot for looking white and not being filipino enough by the other full blooded filipinos. And yet Hawaii still felt like home because I knew I wasn’t alone.
4 years ago I moved to the Southern U.S and I have never felt so out of place. I kinda stick out, even if I tried desperately to fit in.
I have learned to love who I am as I am, though it breaks my heart that I don’t fit in on either side of my family and I’m kind of ostracized for it.

I’m half Taiwanese, through my mom, and half Kenyan, through my dad! Asians seemed to be surprised whenever I tell them though; whaaaat?
