Wow, so funny to read that it's not unusual. It is not always Irish, sometimes people will just ask where I grew up, when in fact I lived in this area my whole life. But Irish seems to be the biggest one. I even had an Irish couple, born and raised in Ireland, ask me what part of Ireland I am from as they were so excited to meet another Irish! I also have been finding out that a lot of people think I am really stupid. They are shocked to find out that I have a 3.8 GPA and I get scholarships. I wonder if hearing people rely on how well someone may speak to determine this. Anyone?
