[name] Jennifer
[where you live] Washington
[siblings] 2 brothers, 1 sister... I'm the youngest. (And a step-sister)
[age] 20
[what's it like being mulatto in your eyes] To be honest, and simple... it's nothing more (or less) than being black and white. But I can say that I do feel like I have to pick one or the other on applications, especially when it says "check one only." Good thing it's optional.
[when and where did you first hear the word mulatto?] I heard it years ago... too long ago to remember the details.
[for what it's worth, do you ever really feel like you belong in a certain crowd?] Currently, no, but I doubt race plays a major role. (I am shy and have social anxiety)
