Absolutely, hoping things are at least tolerable where you are!
I'm mostly content, but things are so insane in my country, state, and even just my city I feel retaining my sanity will take some effort, indeed!
And to top things off, school got more intense. An easy life is not worth much though, I suppose! Hardship only builds our character in some ways.
But, geez it would be nice to get some good things easily for once! Haha

Things are pretty good, actually! Thanks for asking.
Oh, geez... I was hoping things wouldn't be too, bad over there. Even though I don't often keep track of how things are in America in general, nobody can stay ignorant to what is happening, even here.
The only thing I can tell you about that is to not forget to take care of yourself. You know, sleeping enough (or getting to catch up on sleep, at least), eating healthy food, keeping your morale up and all of that stuff that you already know. I'm sure I can't advise YOU on much else except that.

Excellent, I'm glad to hear it! The whole world is going nuts, it seems like so I'm always happy to hear how my overseas pals are doing!
And indeed... Especially now that the USA has an idiot pumkin king for a leader XD haha
I appreciate that, actually. Very few people ever show concern over things like that, and I actually haven't gotten much sleep of late, took several naps today due to where I live being quiet (strangely!) for the whole day, which was rather odd... I did a lot of manual work this weekend, too so I'm finally getting over being sore!
I am trying to eat healthier, in fact I've been looking at Indian/Asian/Middle-Eastern food styles, since they taste so good but have much better ingredients than most American/Scandinavian cooking... So hoping that goes well!
I have resisted the very strong urge to start smoking again, so I'm proud of that lol, been under a lot of stress but getting rid of that through meditation/adopting a sort of Zen-Buddhist approach to life... Which is awesome, since I'm an atheist but Zen Buddhism doesn't conflict with that!
Makes things nice when one can reflect on life, make sense of things and move forward. Even in our crazy century!
Feel free to drop in anytime for a hello, I'll do my best to bug you when I see you doing things here!

It takes my mind off things as well. It's always cool to listen to people's little everyday stories.
Not a day goes by that I'm reminded of that. It's a bit funny, depressing and very scary at the same time! I hope you all (as a country) turn out stronger and united in the end, or at least with a valuable lesson learned.
I hope you enjoyed your extra sleep. I'm a huge pro-nap person, naps are the best XD. I don't know how much this holds true for you (sentence structure???? Expressions???? English is hard.), but I find that sleep is a lot more satisfying if I worked hard before going to bed.
What's that about Scandinavian food not being healthy? Do you eat that a lot in America (Honestly, how am i asking about the entire USA.)?
Hell yeah, that IS something to be proud of!
As far as I know, Buddhism is divided into Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism, Theravada being the one that doesn't claim that Buddha was a holy person. They just think he was a guy. This kind of confused my views of religion, but in a good way, I guess.
Haha I'm trying to be a little more active here. The deviantart app seems to be working just fine, so I guess I'll be around a lot more.

Indeed... If we don't have a civil war or something... People have such short fuses, I had a woman nearly start a physical fight with me today because I honked at her! Interesting enough I got video of the whole thing.... Seriously short tempers anymore.
You do super well with your English though, I always forget you don't speak it as a native! You smash my countrymen in grammar, structure, etc. So never worry about that!
Scandinavian food isn't bad for the most part, but American-Scandinavian tends to involve a lot of meat, butter, cheese, sugar, etc. for lots of pastries, meat-pies, and so on.
If we went by true Scandinavia, still lots of butter and cheese, but then people are more active there
Most of the modern US eats things now that are super-loaded with sugar, fat, fried in some kind of grease, or some other cheap ingredient nonsense. And then we have idiots by the truckload here who think they know how food health works, and they end up destroying their bodies with their odd ideas about "diets".
You're right on the money! Theravada is the true Buddhism, a philosophy and not really a "religion" in any sense, but Mahayana is where they turned it into a supernatural thing, and are not recognized by traditional Buddhists.
Mostly, I've learned a lot that doesn't conflict with my atheist perspectives as I said, adding that most of what is taught turns out to be true!
-We are constantly changing as individuals... We aren't who we were when we were five years old, nor when we were fifteen.
-Suffering is usually caused by something we want or "want to happen", instead of realizing what we have going for us already.
And so on
And excellent! It's good to see you around!

Road rage is a serious problem where I live, so I can definitely understand what you mean. When I used to live in Macedonia, my Albanian friends there sometimes went on holidays in Albania and they always told me that everybody drove like they were insane. Often times, we'd see an especially stupid person driving very fast and they'd pass us by, only to have been stopped by the police or (more likely) to have crashed somewhere. Seems like everybody's got a short fuse.
Thank you so much! I always worry that I make many mistakes, or that I sound very awkward, but I don't understand this because I'm not a native and people are too polite to tell me.
Ah, yes, I understand. Scandinavian food does tend to involve lots of butter and cheese. I know that much about it.
Since we don't have McDonald's here, most people think that fast food is the worst thing that you can eat. You should hear people talk about those weird conspiracy theories that involve McDonald's specifically. Stuff like: nuggets are made of plastic, that they use horse meat for the burgers or that their Coca Cola will give you cancer. I don't know much about McDonald's, but I'm hoping that that isn't true.
Yes, because other religions came into contact with Buddhism and that's when all the philosophies and ideas started to mix with one another.
I moved (to my home country, Albania) one or two months ago and suddenly somebody asked me what religion I belonged to. Damn, did I feel uncomfortable. Try as I might to change the subject, they were already looking at me with wide eyes and had started talking about Satan. Just goes to show how prejudicial people are, honestly. They hear "I don't believe in a higher power" and after dismissing god, they think of the devil. Wtf??? I feel safer being honest about my beliefs here, because although muslims make up the majority, there's tons of other religious people walking around. Yet, I find the same prejudice. It's kind of sad that I've gotten used to it at this point.
Yup! Hopefully, I'll be hanging around here much more often.

Yeeesh... Well, at least I know it's not unique to here!
Your English is still impeccable. To prove it, I will point out any errors in your spelling or grammar I find.... I guarantee I probably won't find many at all! Not silly, I can understand... I was learning Russian for quite a while until I spoke with a native speaker... I was not used to being corrected every other word XD
...Since then I haven't really tried harder to learn. I'd like to learn another language though, before I get too old to try!
And yet in my own country... I can't go a day without spotting horrid errors in both. "Jelous of your friends new phone, and want too hold a new fone in your hand's? Than now you can two!" instead of "Jealous that your friends get to buy a new phone, while you want one? Then now you can have a new phone, too!"
.....Okay, maybe extreme but I have seen this kind of crap in newspapers here! It's insane! Haha
Bahaha! Those are some awesome theories, actually! Nahh, not quite that bad but they aren't far off.... Just a few years ago McDonald's advertised "Now we use all white-meat chicken!" ....Before they used ground up chicken parts (of various origin) to make the McNuggets.
The meat doesn't seem like "meat" should, probably because it's loaded with various grain parts and fat... Most fast food here is the same though; tons of salt, sugar, and a spice called "MSG" which is an extreme artificial salt... It's about as addictive as nicotine to the human brain. It makes anything taste really good, so you'll always want more but too much and it'll give someone a bad headache. Weird stuff!
I don't know about cancer, but Coca-Cola certainly doesn't help with diabetes XD We have so many people here who are so obese, and all they want is more sugar! One can of soda has about 16 spoons of sugar in it, and these people drink from cups that would hold about 3-5 cans!
....Also the machines that dispense soda are rarely cleaned... I worked in a gas station where they left soda machine ends on the floor, even. People were getting soda from bags attached to tubes left on the never-mopped floor! o_o
I know exactly what you mean.... It's crazy how people assume some weird things if you don't fit into what they want you to be.... It is very irritating.
But always remember you're not alone in that! I think it's incredibly absurd that the United States prides itself on so many things:
-We are "the richest nation in the world!" (Debatable, most Americans have never been to Dubai)
-We are "the strongest nation in the world!" (Funny... We seem to lose as many wars as we win?)
-"We were the first to the moon, have the "best healthcare" in the world, and we are the pinnacle of scientific achievement!"
---> Yet we're also the most religious of all Western nations, have one of the highest infant mortality rates of the Western allies, we cut funding to education, science, medical research, NASA, and instead dump tons of money into businesses that fail, cost taxpayers tons of money and sometimes even their lives or freedom.
It's disgusting to me, actually.... So many people try to come to America because they believe the lie that it's the "land of opportunity", when in reality it's no better here than just about anywhere else.
Freedom? Sure! You have the money to do what you want, right? ....No? Oh, too bad... I guess you'll have to work for that freedom! You'll have it... someday.
Oh, wait but you're in debt because you have to pay money to work, pay for school for a better job but you need a better job to afford school! >_<
Not all things are bad, really... There are lots of good people here. But there are days I'm deeply ashamed to be an American in the modern day! Haha
Especially now with our king pumpkin...
Ah well. Things will eventually get better... And if they don't, we (the reasonable people!) can go make our own country on a remote island somewhere, away from all the weird folks!
If the USA falls apart for sure, I'm looking at Sweden or Norway!
