When I was a kid (still am at heart), I went to 13 different grade schools, moved around alot, did not really grow up anywhere. I am really Italian, German, and my grandmother just informed me that I was Bohemian too (her parents). This one particulr year, pretty sure it was 6th grade, I had everyone convinced the new girl was straight out of Italy. I faked the Italian language, I sang in Italian (certain words I knew, I would just use them for the chorus line). I had created such an on going lie, which means more lies, that I became completely stressed out, the kids at school were always curious asking me questions about me coming from another country, ITALY! lol...I was born and raised in Illinois...lol.
I think I have posted this little story before, sorry if you heard it already.
