:P You learn something new about me every day, eh?

It's a private, local store I worked at mostly during the summer as a part time job, but now that school has started up again I don't really have much time. I'll usually pop in on the weekends though.

Wow how pretty! :-D HAH. Where I come from...we have beautiful decorations, but...the stores are rediculous. All contemporary stuff and commercialism - sales and whatnot. I prefer the traditional, Victorian-era Christmas, m'self. :-)

:D Welcome back. Good to see you again!


I hate the way christmas is so commercialised. How are we supposed to enjoy it if there are companies trying to force us to buy stuff!

Its all the cheesy stuff I dont like that companies try to peddle on th eback of christmas. Most of it is really rubbish quality and is just designed to break within 2 days.

I don't like the whole corporate side of Christmas...although there's nothing I love more than going into Hamleys near Christmas day. I still love my toys and candycanes! :P

That's true about Americans, but Brits Rock! :-)














:goofy:


Ok, maybe not as much as we used to but I'm proud to be a Brit. Even more so after watching a series on Channel 5 about all those who have won Victoria Crosses - so sad and depressing but uplifting as well. *salutes brave people*

Aww, you two lie!

I think you lot are just cooler in everything!



In my Drama class the other day, we were doign accents, adn apparently my British accent is "friggin' awsome and sounds Kiera Knightley-esque" as quoted by a friend of mine.

I mean seriously, say soemthing with a British accent and it'll sound ten times smarter than anything you say in american.
Heck, I'd believe ya if you told me the world was flat!
:P

Well, I'm totally American, and very partiotic (:-P,) but I do admit, you Brits are awesome in your own cool way. ;-) But we Americans rock, in my opinion. Eh, we both rock. HA!

I've never met an American person in real life...a few Canadians, but not an American come to think of it. It sounds bad, but most of the people my age where I live have an inherent dislike of America and France...I dunno why...

We make better cars :lol: And of course, that's all that matters...:P
