[48 / 20 / ?]
Sup Comrades, I am a student from Russia, I came to America (California) a year ago and thank God I will soon go home. But not about that. Since this year was rather intense, I am very glad that I learned so much about your country, history, and so on. And according to this, I have as a couple of questions for you, and a couple of points that I’ll just say as a person from another, diametrically opposite country. (And yes, I’m still bad in English, I tweaked the text in Google Translator, sorry about that). You might be interested in reading this, like the point of view from the "damned commies", maybe not ...
AHTUNG, A LOT OF TEXT!
Let's start with the positive points that I have emphasized for myself:
I really like that you have psychologists in every educational institution. And not one or two (or none) as here, in Mother Russia, but a whole company that is always ready to help students. But I didn’t have a good story with psychologists. I came here for just a year and it became interesting to me how the learning process is going on here. I went to @College Name@ for 2 semesters. Perhaps I will skip this пиздeц(shit) with documents and other things, but even after a successful receipt, everything was not so good. A bit of materiel: Russia is a very militarized country. And if your army is exclusively mercenary, then we have a mandatory one (but of course you can avoid it). I was not one of those guys who wriggled out the army. I studied in the cadet corps by my choice (exactly the same school, only the second half of the day is the training of a soldier) from 9 to 11 grade and then immediately went to serve in the army for a year. And because of that, I celebrated my 19th birthday already in America.
