What do people usually assume about you, that is wrong
?
I have no idea....lol. Most things they think are probably true.

That I am Arab. Even Arabs mistake me for being Arab. Everywhere I go this happens. One lady finally explained it to me, it's not just my hijab (head scarf) but my coloring and facial features. I randomly have people speak to me in Arabic. Once in France I even had an older Iraqi Kurd speak Kurdish to me. When I didn't respond he asked if I was Arab. He thought for sure I had to be Iraqi. I am mistaken for Iraqi and Jordanian most often.
Everyone mistake my ethnic to...

Isn't it weird? I never know what to say. It's always awkward. There is nothing wrong with being Arab, I'm just not Arab.

For me its very weird because I traveled,but never lived anywhere other than Florida,and people always think im from NewYork,saying I sound like a Newyorker,whatever that mean,lol,or from Bahamas or Jamaica,saying I have those features and that I have an accent,*shrugs*,lol
That since I'm a SAHM & I homeschool 4 kids, I'm this fantastic housekeeper & parent. They have no idea that my kids run around like crazy people and the chaos level in this house is insane. Also, my house will be clean when you come visit, because we all go on a cleaning frenzy 15 minutes before you get here.
