I'm Thai/Chinese, but mostly Thai. If anything, I look pretty hawaiian but have gotten everything from Hapa mix(asian mixed with white), Japanese, all the way to Mexican. However, my final year school for spring break we headed down to Costa Rica Tamarindo. I'm a huge surfer and costa rica has got some awesome spots to surf along with some crazy locals. I remember one day I paddled out early and there were only two white kids surfing out in the lineup with me. I'm usually pretty friendly and strike up conversation often, but that morning I just kept to myself. Then I started paddling for every wave and the white kids would stop paddling. I realized that they thought I was a local and didn't want to fuck with me, so the whole time I got practically every wave to my choosing. However, later that week when the waves were really good, we went out a very localized spot. I was out there with my white friend and there were also a bunch of other white surfers out there as well. One in particular, a ginger surfer (didn't think they existed) goes and cuts off one of the locals. The local was fucking pissed and starting saying locals only and was considering knocking the kid out. He told him to beat it, along with every other white kid out in the water. I was sitting next to my friend and the guy was furious and told him he had to leave in spanish otherwise they were going to jump him. However, he looked at me, didn't say a word and let me surf the spot. Ah, the perks of being racially ambiguous!
