What do you really look like to others?
Often people mistaken me as a Chinese. Whenever I went to a Chinese trader they would speak mandarin to me. Sometimes they even asked if I am joking by saying I am not Chinese (they must probably thought that I am the newer generations, English speaking Chinese i guess? ). I could speak few mandarin and Cantonese words and would speak to them at first just for fun. hahaha.
This most probably because of my slanted eyes. Or maybe asians do look the same. Lol. Any similar experience?

Yeah, Asians do look alike. Here's photo from back in my modeling days. Generic Asian where a lot of people don't even think I'm Asian at all !!!
Filipinos come up to me speaking Tagalog thinking I'm one of them. Nope, not Filipino!!! |

Chinese is least likely mistaken identity. Just because some people think some other Chinese guy looks like me.
Maybe I look more Chinese than I thought. Some lady at checkout in Safeway scolded me in Madarin for putting pastrie in with donuts, because they don't count towards dozen-donut special. OK, OK, I put it back! |

I look like someone people know. Neighbor, cousin, that one girl you used to go to school with. If life were a Hollywood movie, I'd be a supporting character in the background. But I'm familiar-looking to a whole lot of people.

Just curious, you have asian descent or not? in this picture you look like a polynesian!
Oh yes. That "Hey... I know you" face. Did you like the attention people gave when they try to remember where did you guys meet?

Funny, if I don't immediately consciously make some association to remember a name, I usually forget it about 1.5 seconds after being introduced. If I do, I can remember it for many years.

Folks either think I'm a dude (which is fine by me, I don't care) or they swear they know me from somewhere I've never been. One hairstylist swore she had just cut my hair two weeks prior so I asked her if my two month growth looked like it was fresh cut. She was really confused the entire time.
Probably one of my favorite pictures

The Iron Butt Rally riders had an option to have their hair styled and colored to get first release from the parking lot. My hair had formed a helmet 'hawk, so when there was a lull between riders willing to get prettied up, I slipped in. Since I wasn't a rider, Eric and Cletha were nice and gave me a decent style.
