Georgia on My Mind

I'm subscribing after all.
Sidebar: I think Georgia is gorgeous at least in these parts.

Vlasta · 11-15-2009, 06:28 PM

thank you for subscribing

.... as I stated I don't think I am the best candidate for GA forum , but I was thinking it would be nice to have something posted here .

I would like to clarify my statement regarding the state of Georgia ... I am not saying it's not gorgeous here ... I think majority places in The USA are gorgeous .

However , in my case I would like to go back home . At my old age , I honestly feel the need to return to my roots where I am comfortable and I can be in the cultural background I was raised .Yet , at this moment , I can't for a several reasons and I have a fear that most likely I never will . I lived in a couple countries in Europe , but to be honest I never experienced anything like this .

Over the years I got tired of being hammered down by some people and being view as a foreigner/ a moron . I am so repulsed by people making fun of my English when some of them doesn't even speak they native language properly and I am not talking about this website I just landed here . I reached to a point I don't even try to improve my English.For my work I dictate to transcriber and everything else it's on computer.

I am thinking my main reason why I am such workaholic , because in comparison online and people at work they are not judging me by my English , my accent, my weight , what type of clothing I wear, but by my work ethics, my personality and skills I have. My best friends I have are from work some are gay and some are straight. I am well excepted by them .

Why should this Georgia thread need someone to be in charge of it? Why does it have to be a social venue for events and all that? I guess that's okay, as long as it doesn't become alienating and provides information. I subscribed to welcome people from Georgia, as a fellow Georgian. I don't anticipate using this thread this as a social venue that I would pursue offline. If other people do, it's their business.

As for being a foreigner, if people don't like it, it's their problem. I hope you'll discover that this site is eclectic and open and accepting enough to somewhat compensate for the hassles that you've endured offline. I also hope that this thread doesn't become clique or elitist or alienating in any way as to snub others. Enjoy your time on here—that's what its here for as well as the exchange of ideas and thoughts with more congenial backdrop.

And...Georgia on my mind....in my mind....is a gorgeous.

Vlasta · 11-15-2009, 07:29 PM

I didn't mean that someone has to be in charge of this thread , I simply stated " it would be nice to have something posted here " and since here are few people from GA I was not the best candidate to open this thread , that's all .
I agree with you, I wouldn't consider this thread as a social venue myself .... I made that mistake in the past .

I have been on few other websites and I didn't see one yet where there were no clique or people were not alienated . You are right this site has a different feeling and we will see .

LMAO the only thing ga is good for is its weather. i always thought by moving to the south, the people were slow and steady.

when i moved here nearly 5 years ago, people were rude and mean.

but the weather ROCKS!

I started reading this thread from the beginning and was afraid it would just fade out. Glad to see it did not. I have lived in GA for a long time briefly running away to other southern state but I always come back "home". Anyone here east of Atlanta? Say Snellville, Athens, etc.?

Anyway Hello!!!

Legendryder · 10-07-2010, 05:17 AM

I lived in Athens, about 10 years ago. Now I live in extreme north Georgia. Ellijay to be exact. Apple festival this weekend. Yippee.
