No, I don't have any sort of accent. Same reason as Nicki. Plus, no one in my family has a southern accent. They're all Indian.

Hmm, I don't have a Chinese accent, since I was born here. But to other people, I might have a New York accent (not a Brooklyn or Queens one though)... hah.

I have my own ugly accent that I do not know where it comes.
My accent sounds blurry that you cannot understand it. |

I have a mix of Chinese and Filipino accent and I'm proud of it! LOOOL!
well, not really...  people sometimes look at me like "whaa....!!??" cuz i pronounce every single syllable in a word with a hard consonant. >_> (but i find it kind of weird how native english speakers don't say every syllable, causing them to not know how to spell certain words).

It's wierd, the people around me influence how I talk. So normally,I don't speak english with an accent, but with my chinese friends, my english slips into what my family calls "chinglish", with an HK accent, or at least adding things like "la" and "wor" and "ar ma" after I say things.
