I'm sure your presentation was amazing. And that's great that a another physician (not sure if he's that or a researcher, but you get my point) said you did well. I remember at my prelims and one of my profs said he liked my answer. That made me super excited.</p> <p>I hope the jackets work for you. I haven't been told I look like another nationality, but I have been asked more than once what country I was from because of my accent.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1211491 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 18:09:57 +0000 Gracie 1211491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations! and those are some seriously fabulous jackets!&nbsp; I hope they fit you perfectly and are not itchy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1211446 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 17:30:22 +0000 Emily 1211446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations - it sounds like your conference went well! &nbsp;The jackets look great, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1211389 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 15:34:13 +0000 rabbit 1211389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Swoon over those jackets! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1211381 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 15:18:09 +0000 Ingunn 1211381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jackets, great stories! Congratulations! I have been told that I look French on some occasions, but never by a French, of course. Once, when I was still quite young, a Brit asked if I was from Australia - which was weird, but made me proud </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1211362 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 14:49:46 +0000 shedev 1211362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jackets.

So wow!</p> <p>I get the ethnic weirdness, wish I didn't. Southern Indian OR northern (ha) but not eastern which I actually am. And I also get assigned travel paths! Was asked my a teacher when I was 6 how many years I stayed in London... I passed through on 3 days of my life! Recently I was asked whether I studied abroad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1210034 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 04:12:20 +0000 MuseumGal 1210034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool jackets, can't wait to see them.<br />I am often taken for First Nations, and often disbelieved when I say No I'm not.&nbsp; (Some) People have very definite ideas about what certain ethnicities "should" look like, and can get quite annoyed when you challenge their assumptions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1210033 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 04:12:06 +0000 rae 1210033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I really love both! Especially #1 and especially with the reference. :)</p> <p>People always ask me if I'm everything... except what I really am. Native American, Indian, Latin, black... now I take secret joy revealing the "shocking" truth. o_0 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1210021 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 04:01:29 +0000 lyn* 1210021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies! :)</p> <p>@ Pil - I am so relieved to be home. Never been so happy to see my parking spot! :)</p> <p>@ Nicole - It's Canada. I don't think it truly warms up here :P&nbsp;</p> <p>@ Angie - I have had a teacher who thought I was Greek. I do like their potatoes, but that's about it! Haha, maybe you're honorary Chinese ;)</p> <p>@ Shevia - I think I said ... "From where online?" ... "OH, YLF." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1209939 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 03:02:59 +0000 Jaime 1209939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gasp, I wonder how I would react being recognized from YLF! As for mistaken ethnicity, it is one thing for people to guess, or to guess incorrectly, but to be adamant about their guess is a bit nuts. Anyway, congratulations it sounds like a huge success! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-mistaken-ethnicity-a-ylf-er-a-commendation-and-two-danier-jackets#post-1209870 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 02:03:40 +0000 Caro in Oz 1209870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations.
