The next time someone offers you free tickets to travel to the Olympic Games in a country known for its lack of organization, say no. I almost killed myself three times. And it was hell trying to stop Hikaru from just wandering down uncovered manholes when he wasn't looking. Thank god Hyotei's good about letting kids leave school for a bit ( Read more... )

That did seem a bit much. Then again, I barely watched it. I prefer the summer games, mostly for nostalgic reasons.

Ahh, yes, I remember. You competed once, didn't you? No wonder you have fond memories. More of the sports I'm interested in are usually in the summer olympics however. I used to always want to run for Japan in the olympics.

Yes, I will be. I just hope he doesn't start asking random strangers like he sometimes does...

Russia has problems. I am still working on Africa at the moment, however.

I am glad you returned safely.

Ahh, Russia's problems are still relatively minor compared to Africa. There is a smaller rate of people starving, anyway. Besides, Putin has money, he just doesn't want to use it on the people.

And thank you. I am, as well.
