After 16 months in America, I notice that I have the right to at least agree a little bit to the compliment, "why I can't tell that you are Filipino! You don't have the accent!"... Okay?
Believe me, I still do have this very unique accent, people in America are just being nice, as usual. I was creating my voicemail greeting yesterday so I get to listen to myself carefully, and though I have picked up a little bit of the American accent, I still can tell for myself that I could only be mistaken for a Filipino!
Let's give this a couple more years and let us see where this would take me, accent-wise.
