Excess of Time and Resources

Since I have time, free internet and very little work here in the States (student exchange program slowly turns out to be quite a vacation compared to conditions of the Bosnian educational system), I thought of writing on this Blog instead of writing everybody I know emails of just how well I'm doing.
And what am I going to start with?
Well americans, obviously. Americans are a rather silly people, something they and the rest of the World know for a very long time now. But rather succesful in manifesting that silliness in the way they want to and that way really doesn't do them justice. Those movies and TV programs that are trying to show just how an American is living? Not sufficient but in the slightest.
Me, I'm living in the State of Mississipi, a rather pictoresque place, with a lot of strange and often horrible History. Now the rest of Americans are calling these people even stranger then usual but I wouldn't know... well, not yet anyway. But the difference in pronounciation of English words is more then evident and the Hi Yall's can be heard everywhere you go, which is not a bad thing necesserily as I've come to appreciate and I'm sure everybody else would aswell.

The Cutest Thing

Does it get any cuter??? Anyway, Cute Overload is a beautifuly cutest thingy blog ever ever blog... What can I say, cutest puppies get to me in ways unimaginable to people that don't know me that well... But not to be all cutsie and puppy eyes on you, a bit of WARNING! This post'll have to do with the next award I'll be giving away as soon as I figure out what it'll be...

Chicago

This pic is the most interesting shot I did while staying here, and there's no Photoshop editing involved, just my camera acting up at night. It's the statue of an Indian near the Millennium Park, made by a Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic . I kinda like it, it just has something about it... Anyways, I've been here for more then two weeks now and what do I have to show for it? Not much really, I usually get to going to the Downtown (pretty much the only interesting part of the City) only at night and this statue is the only really succesful shot I got. I have a lot of family and friends photos inside though, so I'll probably post them later below. I'm not revealing the surprise yet (not until I go back to the University, I don't have to drive to a post office there...), but I am going to share some stuff I've discovered in this time I've been inactive: I've rented my Blog for the first time to Scooter McGavin over the BlogExplosion (in the right Sid...

Rules of the South

Back again. Some of you may have thought that I go out every night, all night, to examin those male-female relations more closely. I am terribly sorry to dissapoint you... believe me, more then you can imagine... I'm not saying I'm not willing. I am not saying I am not capable, oh no, I am saying I am being prevented by the State of Mississippi, and not just me, but everyone!!! There's no discrimination in these laws, oh no. Public order shall be ensured at all times. Any and every drunken behaviour at all hours of day and night shall be stopped and taken care of immediately [by arresting the drunken person]. All public shops and clubs that pore alcoholic beverages will be closed before 1AM on ordinary weeknights. On saturdays no store will be opened after 12AM (!!!) and will remain closed all through the Holy Sunday. This is in short what the laws (at least in Oxford) ought to look like. I haven't actually read them, but believe me, Police is there to remind me. And n...
