    As a painter myself, I'm pretty biased towards graffiti so I'm going to say that I don't mind seeing it in public spaces. I just hope the artists know the difference between public and private property and to not get to carried away in places where people don't prefer it. But seeing well done graffiti murals brings a great amount of charm to cities and I definitely admire the work of talented artists who decide to do it.

    That's a tough one. I'd say both are important at different stages over here in the USA. When you say "good looking face" I take into account the overall "look" of a person; their image. I think it's very important to present yourself a certain way to attract other people; especially those of the opposite sex. That's just human nature. But I think the thing that gains peopel respect is their character and behavior, or as you put it, their "heart". People with character; those who have had strong principles and standards have shaped this country in profound ways. 

    When it comes to friends, I really try to look for people with similar values. I really try not to be around people I clash with intellectually or value-wise. It's not constructive; and I want all of my relationships to be constructive.

    Personally I wouldn't pay a lot of money to "get inked" as they say. To me, I've lived fine without them and never had the urge to get them, and no one has given me any headaches because of it so why spend $200 plus dollars on something to impress other people? I understand that in certain cultures, tattoos carry significance and that's totally fine. But as a person who was raised in The West, tattoos in my culture are voluntary and thus unnecessary. There is no "rite of passage" associated with them. They just have the illusion of value.

    I think a good way to do that is to have rules and standards you set for yourself and the people around you so that you wont be moved by them. Lack of discipline and the influence of other people around us can easily throw our lives and plans out of balance. It's easy to come up with a plan to balance your life out, for example: I'm going to get 8 hours of sleep, work 8 hours on this, stop watching TV for 2 hours, save x amount of money, etc. But if you give into distractions and the demands other people place on you, it'll be hard to do those things.

    The American dream to me is being able to start from nothing and end up wealthy regardless of your background. If you're saavy enough to own a business, own land, and invest in the stock market, a lot of things open up for you in this country.

    Salut Ericka, je t'ai envoyé un message. J'suis un locuteur natif d'anglais cherchant un correspondant pour le français donc on peut être utiles à l'autre.

    The sales tax(USA). You think you're paying one price but tax gets added on afterwards. I think prices include tax in countries in Europe so when the price is 7.99, it's 7.99 and not 8.21. That, and the lack of good public transportation outside of major eastern cities.
