I can't believe this, it's hillarious! I mean, online dating services are pretty cheezy, but THIS??

It's sad too.. I feel sorry for these girls for when they finally do marry some American creepo and then come here and realize that this country is awful

As far as how this country is run from the top, I am for the most part very happy with it. I do take for granted how much liberty we and some european countries have since the way it is in poor/communist/ect places isn't quite a reality to me, which is a big reason I want to travel, to gain a more real perspective. If i was born in China and told i had to be an accountant, i would be going nuts right now. I'm also thankful I was born here.

It's just that, in Italy for example, everything closes in the middle for a few hours so people can go home from work and have lunch with their families - their culture as a whole recognizes the importance of family and rest over productivity - things like that would never go down here. People in other civilized countries, that I've met anyways, are generally way more aware of the rest of the world, and Americans are generalized by the rest of the world as being ignorant, which is pretty much right.It's true we have the choice of look beyond what were told, and some of us do, but as a culture we're ignorant..

I'm not even making the statement it seems like i'm defending, what I should have said, what I meant was that the whole world is screwed up and nowhere here is really that great. Russia's government sucks which makes the people's lives suck even more than they already would have - America's government is better, and we have more money, but it's still dark here because this culture has completely rejected God. We're just dying in luxury. There's a big part of me that wants to move away to permanently experience life outside of this place, and I probably will for a time, but ultimately I want to live in America to help change it. as you know I'm very passionate about this

I am making careless statements again, thank you for pointing that out to me

"..America's just the worse as far as I know.."

that was a stupid thing to say, I should not have said that. America is for sure the most notorious, but it's true, I really don't know

Vic I am so happy I can talk to you about things and you understand that I mean to help you - not put you down. A lot of it comes from a misunderstanding due to your articulation, but you are becoming better at expressing yourself every day, and that is an encouraging thought (gandalf wink)

and you also can talk to me about the way I am. It really shows what good friends we are to keep each other accountable and watch out for each other ;)

"DO NOT TAKE ME FOR A CONJURER OF CHEAP TRICKS! I DO NOT MEAN TO rrROB YOU!"

for sure Katie. I love how we do this for each other. And it's cool how you can see me growing just as much as I can see myself, I forget sometimes how well you know me

Dang, when I got back tonight Aaron and Matt were watching Return of the King, and I saw the last part of it, which reminded me about our plans to do it all again. !!

ummmmmm I kind of watched them with chad after i came home from my surgery. I forgot all about saying we were going to do it and being in medicated daze did not help to remind me.

I'm a jerk.

I'll understand if you never want to see me again.

I'm going to sleep now, I still feel sickly :(
