pre ang bastos mo pero nakakatawa ka. okey tula mo may talent ka. And all you Flips out there (I dont like the sound of that), never thought there was such a syndrome, a funny syndrome that is. As I recall I had that same experience before. During my former company trips to Japan, I believe I spoke that I have a bit of spanish blood coz of my pointed nose and surname, chinese coz of the eyes as a joke when japs ask. But Im often mistaken as jap during train ride from work. Its a bit fun when folks get confused and speak to you in their native twang. I was even thought as korean during some early taekwondo sessions and chinese when we visited a chinese friend house. The chinese friend mother spoke to me as if everybody knows their dialect. Well for me, IMSCF syndrome is a case when your in an environment where folks mistook your identity for another one and then you tend to have second thoughts that maybe you are, especially if you dont have a clear thought before to where the hell I originate from. Jusy until now you read thru this IMSCF stuff out of curiosity that you begin to discover that: (1) If somebody ask me again my nationality or mistook my identity, I'll say I'm a Filipino an Asian! (if I havent change my nationality yet though), period. And (2) never mind. Cheers to all the folks here!
