The funny thing is I literally did not realize that I would even be classified as bi-racial until I was at BYU and people made some really rude comments (even some guys said they couldn't date me because I was bi-racial, HUH????????). It never occured to me until then. My parents did a great job I guess and part of it was growing up in San Diego where there's lots of diversity.Mique (as in Mickey)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11129020776151483738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2094659862503879931.post-50636770753857729392008-06-09T14:15:00.000-07:002008-06-09T14:15:00.000-07:00Keep the interviews coming.

I have been brought to tears from laughter on more than one occasion!<BR/><BR/>This was another great interview, Gabi. Kudos :)<BR/><BR/>I have always been impressed with and intrigued by Andrea. I was really excited to see your interview was about her.<BR/><BR/>The romantic in me was giddy when I read that Skip proposed the night that she welcomed him home from his deployment. I wonder if she was expecting a proposal?!<BR/><BR/>I loved how she handled the stupidity of the fabric store woman.<BR/><BR/>I had an elderly woman that I visit taught say to me once, "Your parents are Jewish? So, your'e Jewish?!" (She obviously knew I was LDS...I guess she just meant of Jewish descent) When I told her, "Yes, my birth mother was Jewish and my father is Jewish but converted to the church when I was 6." She said, "Well, you don't have an awful hook nose like those people!" I guess my nose wasn't as large as she thought it should have been but, my mouth was sure large due to the fact that it was hanging open upon hearing that.<BR/><BR/>Bless their hearts.
