If you never told us you were half Japanese, from these pictures I wouldn't have guessed but already knowing that you were part Japanese, I noticed some facial features that seemed somewhat Asian in you. I'm not exactly sure what though, it's just thereNow who looks at these and guesses that I'm half Japanese (without having been told)?

Funny thing is, that was my mother's face you were looking at in those pictures of me. As far as my face is concerned I'm almost an exact copy of her, feature for feature. Yet, as you can see, my mother looked very Japanese; she could never have been mistaken for a non-Asian.flammable hippo wrote:If you never told us you were half Japanese, from these pictures I wouldn't have guessed but already knowing that you were part Japanese, I noticed some facial features that seemed somewhat Asian in you.

You guys do look a lot a likelalaith wrote:
My mother and I when she was around the age I am now. Can you see the resemblance between us?
. But your mother's smile is different along with the hair. But other than that it's like looking at MaryKate and Ashley Olsen. It's funny how kids tend to look a look like one parent. I think I look a lot like my mom, but everyone I meet says I look just like my dad (which I don't see at all).Your hair seems to be more dominated by your father's genes along with your overall complexion. But in general you definitely are a lot like your mother.The other contributor to my genetic make-up.
I don't look a thing like my father. However, my build is definitely from my father's side of the family.
(The teddy bear I am holding in my lap is テッヂ児ちゃん -- named by my mother, naturally.)
The interaction of genes fascinates me. I inherited my face strictly from my mother and my body strictly from my father. The only spot where my parents' genes actually blended was in my hair.
I just think it's absolutely fascinating. I love to compare people to their parents and seeing whose genes show up. (It also gives you a good idea of how that person is going to age.) Have you compared yourself with pictures of your parents when they were the age you are now?flammable hippo wrote:

Actually, though you can't tell by that photo, my mother was as pale as I am. She just spent a lot of time outside.Your hair seems to be more dominated by your father's genes along with your overall complexion. But in general you definitely are a lot like your mother.
Ahh, thanks.And btw, you were a pretty cute kid
Not its current glory, Jorge-さん.tanuki wrote:
Lalaith, do you have a photo that shows your hair in all its glory? I remember you said it was very long.
I haven't gotten to much unfortunately. My dad grew up in Cyprus a long time ago to a pretty poor family so I don't think they took many pictures (if they even had a camera). The youngest photo I remember seeing of him is when he was around 18 (a few years older than me). Perhaps in a few years I'll be able to compare more accurately. As for my mom, I've seen a lot of pictures and we look pretty similar but it's a bit harder to compare since I'm a guy. She does however look a lot like my sister.Have you compared yourself with pictures of your parents when they were the age you are now?
Whoa
. I think you might have inspired Rapunzel. That's some cool hair.I have that same "no photos" problem with my mother. Japanese sharecroppers didn't have cameras. The earliest picture of her is with my father in her mid-twenties.flammable hippo wrote:

Thank you very much.Whoa . I think you might have inspired Rapunzel. That's some cool hair.
No, you need to do any resizing in whatever photo editor you use. However, you can use the "preview reply" button and it will show you the post with whatever size the picture is going to be.thecuteysakura wrote:
if you post a pic do they resize themselves?
