LJ got rid of the "last post __ days ago" thing on my main page so i can never bother to update ;___;
the winter olympics just got me thinking... am i in the minority when i say i have no real patriotism? like i mean i'm proud of being my ethnicity/nationality, but when it comes to sporting events and such i don't get too emotional when my national team wins/loses? it's not like i hate sports, since i watch the summer olympics semi-religiously, but there just seems to be no real passion in your home country winning/losing? it's just.. "oh [blah blah] won, yay! what's for dinner?" @___@;;
oh i dunno... i guess you just start feeling lost when you're overseas and you're already confused about these things to begin with...
