B0X0R Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 I'm from Illinois. Unfortunately. Looks like I'll be here for college, too. Aww, cheer up! At least it's not Wisconsin. suikashoujo 1 Quote
Deep Blue Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Te había notado antes pero no estaba seguro si hablabas español... これからよろしくね Yo reprobar español? ser imposible... Un gusto che どうぞよろしく Max 1 Quote
Zalor Posted April 2, 2015 Author Posted April 2, 2015 Aww, cheer up! At least it's not Wisconsin. Lol, one of the colleges I was interested in is in Wisconsin (Beloit college). However, I got into the school I'm more interested in, but that's still in Indiana. For an East coaster like myself, I don't really know the difference other than the fact that Indiana is closer to home. Quote

Wisconsin is alright. Quote
suikashoujo Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Aww, cheer up! At least it's not Wisconsin. That... is a valid point. at least I have Chicago in addition to the never-ending corn fields. Quote
Stray Cat Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Chicago is an amazing city. I'd be thrilled to live there. B0X0R 1 Quote
rainsismyfav Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Wisconsin is perfect... Too perfect... They're hiding something... Naw... Wisconsin is alright. My cousin is set to go to Univ. of Wisconsin (Madison) this year. I'm going to go with her when she moves so I can have an excuse for a road-trip (New York to Wisconsin). B0X0R 1 Quote
B0X0R Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Chicago is an amazing city. I'd be thrilled to live there. It truly is an amazing city. I lived there for a semester once. Despite other reasons, I loved living there. Quote
suikashoujo Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 I'm about an hour from the city, so I just go there every once in a while. It's gorgeous, though. Quote
Deep Blue Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Why sadly? I don't like my people (not all of them but maybe 90%) and I don't feel proud about being Argentinian at all, they are liars, selfish and most of all they think they are the best when clearly they are not. Quote

I think that is what humans are in general, except for the "best" part I think. Kids do think they are the best on what they do because their parents says (suggests) so, but as time goes by, they'll learn how incredibly inferior they are - that there are always someone better than them.

Dude, I live in America. I feel like most of world hates us. Infact, many Americans hate each other too (usually this is because of political disagreements though). ;p But I agree with what Julyan said above me, it's just people being people. Quote
Darklord Rooke Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Dude, I live in America. I feel like most of world hates us. [Non-serious post] That's because we do. For example every time I take a trip to America I'm forced to watch these weird American sports, and as a sport nut I constantly find myself in sporting withdrawal. And if that's not bad enough I also have to drive on the opposite side of the road. Not to mention there's too many intersections, America needs to build some roundabouts. Oh, and you guys spell funny. Grrrrrr [/non-serious post] Zalor, FinalChaos, Mr Poltroon and 1 other 4 Quote

Yeah to some degree is like Julyan said but you know the hate we have against Brazilian people or even Uruguayan...we believe we are superior in everything when everything says that we are not, speaking about economic, industry, education, etc etc. Is sad to live in a country where your neighbor will screw you over just to be a bit better, this happens everyday here. There is this hate people have inside them.. and it's getting worse every year. Sorry for the off-topic and the rambling Quote
Eclipsed Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 It's hilarious cuz prior to joining Fuwa I didn't really get to hear individual people's opinions about America from other countries All I hear now is 'lel Muricans' and bashing about color vs colour and kg vs lbs and football vs soccer Could care less just gimme mah cheezeburgers oh and my 2d pron Quote
Kosakyun Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Also, do most people in the Philippines speak English? One of my close friends is an immigrant from the Philippines and he speaks flawless English, although he does have a bit of an accent. We're taught English from the moment we start studying. Given that most of the shows kids watch these days are also in English, it's rare to not know English here. I'm pretty sure people from the provinces also know English. It's not really that uncommon. Dunno 'bout accents though. The people from Skype already heard me speak in English, so they might know if I have an accent or not. Rather, a different accent to people with English as their mother tongue. Also, all these American states and cities I know nothing about. Oh, except some, like Chicago. That city's famous. Quote

We have English class from grade 1 too, but despite that, there are still ton of people who are totally useless at English. Quote

I know a lot of people who aren't that good in it too. But hey, it's relatively easy to learn. Just watch and watch, I guess. <3 Quote

That is, if you're satisfied using it normally. Using it in conversations, for example. If you want to dive in deeper, then you'll need to study and read stuff. If it's just to pass the subject, then you can learn by just listening to the teacher, really. I rarely watch TV nowadays, anyway. I think language's much easier to learn if you actually use it in daily conversations or something. I guess that's the reason I never really got better in French. Quote
