^ what???
< just got out of work.
v loves candy!

^ You have nooo idea how much I love candy...especially Twizzlers/licorice twists, jelly beans, and anything chocolate. My sweet tooth is huge. xD

< is allergic to her new hair spray and is depressed because she blew a large wad of cash on it. x_x

Re: "Mostly old babushkas and old men who lost everything when the USSR collapsed and who think democracy has failed them. "
I grew up in capitalist world and feel capitalist is a failure.
I didn't lost anything... but I am greedy and would like to see more resources available, especially to Northeast Asia. Communist Party provides a safety net. It is also democratic for the officials. We can dominate the resources as much as possible.
<
nothing... just browse around and about to have lunch.
v
Has a sugar cane field nearby.

^ I sadly don't have a sugar cane field nearby...but I want one! =) I want to also say that I understand what you are talking about. Sorry, wasn't meaning to sterotype anyone :/ My apologies!
< Really needs to do her homework... :P
V wants to break out into a little russian dance for no reason :)

^ If I broke into a Russian dance, I'd most likely break a bone. I'm super clumsy. :P

< has been watching British comedies and trying hard not to wake up the entire apartment building with my insane laughter. :D

V Doesn't like Lady Gaga as much as I don't.

^ You wanna bet? :) The problem is that she is no longer considerend avant-garde any more. Now everybody dresses weird...and she has to do stranger and stranger things to get people's attention. *yawn*
< about to die laughing because of a funny joke a friend told me
v must tell us what their favorite band/music group is

^ *ONE* of my favorite musicians is Martyn Bennett. He's one of the founders of the Celtic Fusion sound. He was considered important enough that The Scotsman carried his obituary. (He died young. *sad*) http://www.martynbennett.com/ You can hear some of his music on his site. His loved ones have set up a charity in his name, to help young musicians of differing musical traditions worldwide. (The Martyn Bennett Trust.) Edit: I have donated to the trust, and I own all his albums excepting Glen Lyon which I still hope to get. I got Birds and Beasts for Christmas, and I will be getting Aye when it is released. =)

< About to have a nice hot cup of herbal tea, to help with her allergies. AAAAAAACCCHHHHHHOOOOOOOO! The maples are pollinating now, and I am very allergic to them. *bleh*

V Loves to buy fresh produce and baked goods at their local farmer's market. =)

At my current location, local farmer's market is the only place where we can buy fresh produce and baked goods . It is a small town where ex-communist influence is everywhere.

Does not have allergic problem. ( like me)

v loves either tea or coffee

^ I love both coffee and tea, but I'm definitely a more avid tea drinker. One of my hobbies is trying new teas. :D
