    Uhm.. My writings. I write in Romanian the most, English is not my first language. And when I sent a story I've written to a contest at school, I was shocked I win and and to be told I am actually good. It's nice to be known for something you enjoy doing,.

              I was born in chisinau, then I moved to italy with my parents, then to the uk on my own, shortly after i turned 18 and now a romainan friend of mine invited me to stay at his place and see the country because I couldn't stand being in London during the olympics.

                I see. So your parents are Romanian, or Moldavian ( But I think it's the same think) ?

                  From where I stand it's like uk and us they both speak the same language, share some common history but are completely different countries, but as i've heard recently this opinion is not shared by many romanians.
                  Anyway my mother is moldovian and my father is russian, born in transnistria.

                    Yeah, most Romanians don't share that opinion. I think we are one.
                    That's awesome!

                          great then. the best part of being half russian is being able to say perfectly Trofimov's monologue in russian (the only thing longer then one sentence I know how to say). Oh and privet moya lyubovʹ ya Vladimir iz rossii always works.

            Wow, I've seen you around so much but I didn't know where you were from. So can you speak Romanian too? Is this summer your first visit to Romania? I also write most of my work in Romanian, like Raluca, though I've had my English years ... I guess I needed to escape into a language other than my own.

              I can speak Romanian but my vocabulary isn't more developed then say a ten year olds. So writing in romanian is out of the question. I've passed through romania last year when I visited my relatives in moldova but this is my first official visit.

    I've never really had a good excuse to show the world that I can turn my arms around. I can touch my elbows together while having my hands rest on my hips (for better explanation).

    I dunno, not really one of those things that comes up a lot.

    My poetry is something I've yet to show to anyone I've met in person. So far the only ones who know of this are those met online. I've not met anyone I'd have the lack of shame to show, or the motivation. Those who claim that poetry is a good way to pick up girls are fooling themselves, I can barely admit my poetic streak to my close friends, let alone female strangers, and most certainly not without sounding like some arrogant creep.

    So, for now, my poetry remains my own.

        That's a wasted talent, because all of them live on the other side of the world

      Most of my father's side of family are into the arts on some level.  Nearly all of my cousins from that side can sing or play some instrument really well.  My talent was writing, though none of them really know anything about it.  I don't hide it out of shame or anything, I'm just not interested in showing it to them.  I doubt they'd be into it anyway.

    When I was 6 years young a spider crawled into my ear while I was sleeping and lived there (or just got stuck there) for a month or two. No one ever believes me when I tell them but my medical report says it all
    I wanted to keep it too it would make this scratching sound like it was talking to me or something

        Haha, I wasn't afraid of the spider because I never saw it
        But then finally when the doctors managed to take it out..I was shitting bricks
        The thing was black, hairy, and ugly looking!
        Scarred for life.

    Although I'm not very intelligent I play a shit load of chess and am pretty good at it. However I feel too bad when I beat people more intelligent than myself so I stick to just playing on the computer.

      Feel bad!? REVEL IN IT! Rub it in their intellectual little faces! See the shock and dismay on their faces as you thoroughly whoop their brainy asses at the game they so long ago claimed as their own!
