Some people says that Im very friendly which is true and some says Im kinda snob which is false...hahaha.......

Usually the first impression people get of me is that I am unapproachable due to my physical size. I have learnt to live with it because, at the end of the day, it doesn't really matter what others think.
Once they get to know me they realise that I am only a gentle giant who is easily approachable.

Do I sense racism in here? lol. probabably not. This is Philipp
ines category anyway, so i guess it's okay.lol

Deep thinker and intelligent( now, I am not being conceited)
Also i am mistaken for being promiscuous(I dont know why) but i am the other way around-very conservative and serious when it comes to relationship.

that i am suplada and mataray. i may have this "ice queen" look but after you have gotten past my defenses, i can be one of the sweetest and most caring people that you will ever know.

i feel amused. i do try my best to be reachable though by meeting people halfway.

sorry, im not really into making impressions and minding about them. others will always have a say about you or what you do and etc. and you can't please everybody.

if i always mind what they have to say about me, nothing will happen to me but a paranoid. just be yourself!

jan-na~â™¥~ and im luvin it

That I'm a snob and a socialite. Well, when they know me a li'l bit more they will usually find out that I'm not that kind of person. <*-*>

They thought I was dumb and know nothing about computers.

Suplada and high maintenance. A guy I liked in college didn't want to ask me out because he thought I was "high class". When we went out as a group and he saw me drinking Red Horse, it totally changed his mind about me. People only think I'm a snob because I'm not very ma-chika to those I don't know.

that i'm much too serious at work and yet, much loose after one drink & too eager to grab the mike when it's karaoke time...typical pinoy - i work hard, i play hard too

most people think i am unapproachable and "mataray". well unapproachable is wrong. "mataray" is right! lol!
i don't get mad, hurt or insulted. i just show them who and what i really am. at times i approach them first na when i feel like they're uncomfortable and hesitant to approach me.

Physically? That I look Chinese, I'm not chinese nor do I have chinese blood.

When I speak on the phone, they have to guess what is my nationality (I work in Costumer Service) because I don't have Filipino accent nor slang. In fact, they told me I don't have any noticeable accent at all.

Character? They think I'm aloof until they got to know me better.

How do I deal with it?

Just smile. I'm used to it. When I was in Hongkong for a holiday, no Filipino would talk to me because they thought I was from Nepal (that's what they told my Eurasian mother-in-law who they thought was a Filipino She look like a typical Portuguese lady). When I go out to eat during fasting month (I live in Malaysia), the server would ask me if I'm a Malay, so I decided to wear a big crucifix when I go out. I can even eavesdrop whenever there are Filipinos gossiping because no one thinks I'm their countryman. Someone even mistook me for an Indian girl, how I wonder, because I'm a mestiza.

Foreigners normally would go to me to ask questions when they hear me talking to other hotel guest. They told me that I speak very clearly and they could understand me.

When I was 11 someone (a stranger yelling from across a street) asked me if I was a boy or a girl. People had been asking my for years and I got tired of it. I yelled back "neither!".

they always last...
