My country is the United States but I'm Chinese. I was born in America but I
identify my self as a chinese, and more importantly an asian. Being an American
has perks and I make a pretty cool living here but if I had to choose between my
homeland and the country I happened to be born in then I would choose my
homeland of China.
Nationalism for the Chinese, I think, transcends things like race and places of
birth and origin. We have many nationalities / races in China that identify
themselves as Chinese. I believe what makes a nation is not the government, nor
their policies nor the governments' ideologies. It is the people of that country
and their culture that make a country what it is. We Chinese have a great
homeland but no matter where we are, we are still Chinese and all united. It is
our culture and self alignment with our nationality that unites us and defines
us as the Chinese.
Hmm, apparently Chinese propaganda is very persuasive.
Would I fight and die for a government, a country itself? No, probably not.
But for my fellow people, my fellow Chinese, I would fight to the death to
defend them, sacrifice to help them, and support them in any time of need.
A government or country doesn't necessarily have to be kind or even sympathetic
at all to the people they rule. The government could hurt my people and if that
were to happen I would challenge the government's authority.
Thats why the question of whether you support your country or not is a hard one
to answer thoroughly. The will of a country's authority may not be the will of
the majority of the people of that country.
Its a bit dangerous / narrow minded to believe that the few leaders of a country
or a group of people is representative of a huge population, especially one like
that of China.
Guilty Gear as well but I can suffice with audio CDs and the game.
Also a funny thing is Ace Combat has some nice side stories to accompany the
game that would be nice as a movie of some sort. Too short for an anime. But
their story ideas are just superb.
"Either God wants to abolish evil, and cannot; Or he can, but does not want
to; Or he cannot and does not want to. If he wants to, but cannot, he is
impotent. If he can, but does not want to, he is wicked. But, if God both can
and wants to abolish evil, Then how come evil in the world?"
-Epicurus, 350-?270 BC
Oh also, I also think that one reason why God would not annihalate all evil in
the world and universe is because he needs evil so he can continue to be good
But that would also make him wicked so my statement - and Epicurus' - still
stands
But I still hope there is something in the next life but there is no worrying
about it now
There isn't much I can really do to affect that
STARCRAFT II!
YES
Me and my friend were talking about it just the other day after we fought each
other on SC 1

You know when you want to scan something inside of a book but because of the
spine or the cover, there is always that curve along the inside spine of the
book that doesntlet you scan the whole page?
There is always a llittle blur on the edge where the curve is.
Can anyone give me tips on how to get rid of this?
Thanks for any help you provide no matter how small or inconsequential you think
it is. Any help is gratefully accepted with many thanks
Spanking doesnt really seem to be much to me
Man if i could only get away with a spanking
In a Asian household, generally speaking, you are beaten with a utensil of the
parents choice, not a spanking
And o man you would not only be good for the next few weeks, but you would be
hurting too much to be doing much bad
The beating you get is not abusive but it hurts enough to reinforce anything
that the parents have to say.
I think it really helped me because i will not beat my kids because i know how i
felt when i was beaten
On the otherhand my parents had the same treatment and still beat me...
I personally would not do it but i do think it can be used to create a
respectable person
I think i am nice to everyone becauseof my beatings

They are both awesome RPGs with great story lines

A good view on religion:
"Either God wants to abolish evil, and cannot; Or he can, but does not want to; Or he cannot and does not want to. If he wants to, but cannot, he is impotent. If he can, but does not want to, he is wicked. But, if God both can and wants to abolish evil, Then how come evil in the world?"

On the other hand my scans were sent to me by a friend via rapidsharez
