 I am half Filipino and half Spanish but I am very proud of who I am. Everywhere I go I am proud to tell others that I am a true blood Filipino although I am already an American citizen. I am a true Filipino by heart, mind, soul, and body. People are amazed on how I made friends so easily. It's because I always approach them and talk to them and said, "Are you a Filipino?" Then they reply that they are Filipino too. Afterward we talked about where we are from and exchange our info and became good friends.

OVER THOUSANDS OF YEARS OF INTEGRATION AND SOCIALIZATION, IF ONE DECIDES TO DESCRIBE THEIR BACKGROUND AS FILIPINO, WHITE, AND SPANISH, IT'S UP TO THAT PERSON; HE/SHE IS THE ONE WHO KNOWS THEIR FAMILY LINEAGE BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE. I FEEL NO ONE CAN REALLY SAY THEY'RE REALLY FULL BLOODED; EVERYONE IS MIXED ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. BEING "FILIPINO" IS WITHIN ONE'S DAILY RITUALS, HABITS, AND/OR CULTURAL BELIEFS.
