Where are your roots from in the Philippines?

i'm starting this for one reason, make me more aware of the filipino in me and tribal blood that flows in my veins. so to start, me:
from my father's side - kapampangan, ilokano, some chinese.
from my mother's side - dabawenyo, cebuano, mandaya, some spanish.

That was funny! Reminded me when my parents kid each other, my dad would say that he's FBI (Full-Blooded Ilocano) and my mom would counter that saying that she's NBI (Natural-Born Ilonggo).
