: : I am confused - I think I am missing the whole point of these messages... You yourself are the living proof of what this country is about. The fact that you miss your (well, our common) routines you got used to back home - whose fault is it? I guess, noone's. This country is different from our native Ukraine - whose fault is this? Again noone's. Getting used to new environment is always (and will be always) a painful process that takes time. Is it worth expressing your pains? Does it change a thing? It would be worth doing if it did, since it does not - why then? My personal phylosophy is that you share GOOD things with others and keep BAD things to yourself.
: : But again - it's a free country, if you feel better this way - they you are right from your prospective.
: : In couple years you'll feel even better.
: : Good luck!
: : Ihor.

: Hi. It depends what do you mean:" is it worth it?".Don't judge me wrong please becouse I will answer as I do understend.
: Yes, it is. Because even if I'll get American citizenship/in some reason I want to do it/, I am going to keep my Ukrainian, also. And I'll always say " I'm Ukrainian" not I'm " American".
: And NO, it isn't, because people like you are will never understood people as I am.
: Don't understand me wrong again I'm not saying that you are wrong in what you've said or something.
: And thanks for "good luck" I shall need it.
