lilitlolig Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Hello, I have a question for Armenians who are diasporadic. Do you like to show that you are the Armenian? For example - Do you like to wave some flags everyday? Or do you like to put red, blue and narinchakooyn stickers on your car?? Or do you like to wear some t-shirt?? I do not have a flag to wave, but I like to wear Armenian t-shirt. I use to buy on Cafepress but they are not very nice looking. But I have bought some from Aratherat.com and they are very nice. This is what I have: http://cache1.bigcartel.com/product_images/26708238/lakesev1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yervant1 Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Do you like to show that you are the Armenian?I have a question for you!Do you join forums in order to become a participating member?Or do you join in order to place an advertisement? Just a friendly reminder if you do it again it becomes spamming. BTW I do prefer the shirts from Cafepress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunt Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Not really, because I already get "What, you're Armenian?" enough as it is. But I do love speaking Armenian around Euro-Americans and Armenians, since both are equally surprised, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyeGirl1 Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) Not really, because I already get "What, you're Armenian?" enough as it is. But I do love speaking Armenian around Euro-Americans and Armenians, since both are equally surprised, haha.I might be like that if I knew more Armenian. How can you not be Armenian with a name like Shaunt? I don't look Armenian. I did not grow up around an Armenian community. I don't have an Armenian name. I only know a few words of the language and a couple letters of the alphabet. I am part other stuff. I love the side of me that is Armenian. I am proud of it because I am proud of the Armenian people and my Armenian family. I like to tell people I am Armenian. When I got my Armenian club sweatshirt back in university, I wore it every day for probably 4 days despite relatively warm (but thankfully not too hot) weather. I expect I will die proud to be Armenian. I mourn only that some fellow Armenians do not share the same faith that helped our great people through the century (thank you Soviet Union), but we are a people who have faced much and survived, a people are art, faith, and love, a people whose existence in this day is worth celebrating and yet we press on to something more, something greater, life and justice. When I do not show that I am Armenian, it is my secret weapon, that piece that says you have underestimated me because I am much more than I appear. Plus I'm a white suburban woman whose only ethnic group in the area is Armenian, so that is pretty cool too. One day, Armenia may be a great nation, flourishing at least as well if not better than my own home nation. God be with her.

Hehe I have never even imagined someone walking by me and not noticing how Armenian I am, it is very hard to mistake me for another race! First of all, my Armenian accent, second my Armenian looks, third me always busting Armenian words in the middle of an Amerikyan conversation and fourth I am too proud to pretend being non Armenian!
