Hello!

I have always liked this word since I learned to speak English.. well.. to speak (by the way I have to say that my English is still not that good, but it is sure improving). It was the first word I learned, and is usually the first word I speak of when I start a conversation. Well ok.. it might sound a little boring and unintelligent to use this word, just by itself, and.. often. But I have to say that it doesn’t get any better when you use it like “Hello dude” or “hello mom” or.. “hello earth!”. Plus, we are not (as many of you insist on believing or assuming) necessarily more intelligent. We are just different. Which is actually the reason of my “trip”.. to earth (I hate changing the work-related words into something else just to fool myself to keep my motivation.. but I do it anyway.. just to be able to say “at least I am being honest”.. hm). Actually the purpose is indeed to learn something, something from you. And apply it to patch the holes in our society, for a better and more understanding environment, with vision and.. bla bla bla ..

Believe me you would’t want to learn about the social problems of an “alien” community.. especially when you have enough of your own to ponder about. And actually the reason I am blogging is not to tell something about us, or our high-tech public transportation vehicles (well I have to admit that we do have them.. and they are nice indeed ;) but actually to tell you about .. you! And why am I doing this?? Well let’s say it is a part of the amazingly-unbelievably-fun-and-amusing-and-at-the-same-time educative-so-what-can-you-ask-more- trip of mine.

Coming back to “hello world!” or more precisely “hello.. with cream on it”… It sounds more.. but it doesn’t sound better. The magic with this one-word is that it creates the bond, the interaction. It’s like throwing the stone into the water without knowing what kind of circles it will create when it hits. Although it is effected by your throwing skills, the results are mostly dependent on the situation of the water. And even though you see no circles, or it is the first time that the water sees the stone you are throwing (see : http://www.planetpals.com/hello.html ) still you hit it, and you start “something”! Or.. at least I feel like it..

As a summary:

Watashi no baka! (thanks to my Japanese friends)

or in other words,

Hello! :)

.. damn, used a smiley with it..
