I was born in HK but moved to Canada in the 90s. My family often said Canada is a great country with laws, benefits, and jobs blah.

So, my mom became a "cleaning lady" earning 8$/h. She worked so long that her left arm was injured and couldn't work anymore. The canada health care doesn't support therapies. She also had to go to a dentist which cost her 800$!

So me and her went back to Hk last year to treat her arms. Everything was so cheap in HK. Granted, HK is crowded, not as good air quality, but it is fun, fast pace, and full of life.

The dental fee was so cheap in HK, and the massage for her arm to. I kept asking her, why the hell did we come to Canada ?! She kept telling me it is a great country. Well, if it is so great, then why were you a cleaning lady and we can't afford for medical care?
And why are we living in a 3 bedroom apartment instead of a house? I gotta leave this prison. I am 27, I am not gona rot here and waste my age.Why do people think Canada is good?

Lol, I remember hearing it in fourth grade, and it was still a bit old, now I'm in eight, but anywho, how old is it? Cause my e-friends are having a haloween party and they told me to bring something that wil bring back memories. How does this song have memories with me? God, my friends (e-friends) danced like total skanks (yes, guy too) to this song at a party two years ago. Soo, and if its not so much trouble, can someone send me the link to download it? Not iTunes please!!!

I woke up yesterday and I felt like a completely different person, and I was! Okay, before, I was shy, quiet, lazy, depressed, sad, doubtful, and I was scared of everyone. I woke up, and I felt completely different. I was happy, not lazy at all, motivated for no reason, and I got along fine with everybody! I have barely no friends, go through emotional abuse all the time, I have physco parents, and i'm as happy as hell! I have no idea why or anything! I have energy, I like different types of music, I'm social, I'm not scared of people, and I'm jsut soooo different! This is great!!!! It just kinda bothers me, why did I change overnight? Does anyone know what could have caused it? Not that I really want to know super bad because I'm happy, I'm just wondering. Thanks!!

I am American. Border laws are reciprical in all bordering nations.
What part of "illegal" is it that you do not understand.
Example: (To draw a picture). "I do not understand, if it is illegal for mexicans to come into America without going through the long INS hassle" why don't the law do something about it.
Could it possibly be it is the American who do not understand the word "illegal". Seems to me the Mexican understand it very well. Now jump in in my face and blame the politicians you elected.
I want my fair share of "huh"!, "What"? "I don't understand the question. "What the question ? I am giving you an out. I am a nice guy. Huh!

My last washer never worked in my unit I am moving from. They fixed it once almost a year later it worked for 1 month and broke again. Still left unfixed. So im kind of use to the laundry in huge mounds. Should I get the washer and dryer in the next place that I move into? The price difference is 140.00 more a month for the washer and dryer. I have two small kids under the age of 3.

Is it true that the Koran teaches that a person of your faith considers those not of your faith, unworthy and unable to stand before God? Please don't misunderstand me, there so many Christian books that are teaching a philosophy of "radical Islam" or "Islamic fascits" are out to kill those of the Jewish and Christian faith.

I also want to know if the Koran teaches that a Muslim can enter into an agreement with a non-believer a "promise or treaty" if you will, and is allowed to break the treaty or promise, and infact can enterinto the agreement with the intention of never honoring it in the first place.

I know that would seem contradictory but it is what we as Christians are being taught about Muslims specifically "radical Islamic extremists". Can any one confirm or deny this teaching?

Thank you and God Bless

i man, in nature when the population of a species is going out of control, homosexuality is observed....presumably some in the population have 'deviated' to homosexuality due to necessity to help the population level out again. if a continued overpopulation occurs, the entire population might deplete its necessary resources and die out altogether....so homosexuality would actually help save the species.

i wonder if that can happen in humans. the world is amazingly overpopulated with us...and it seems (maybe this is conjecture) that the percentage of homosexuals is increasing (it might just be more accepted so more come out of the closet....i don't know).

is it possible that the religious right and its stance on contraception is what is spirialling our population out of control and thus evolving humanity towards increased homosexuality? if so, that would be fantastically ironic, wouldn't it? christianity creating its own 'abominations.' thoughts?
