Why is it mid October? I thought the Olympics are all done and over with in August.

Maybe it's this Viking blood I have in me, feels like time to move on and rape and pillage etc somewhere else....

I'm out seeing as they don't want us here, and it'll be a train-wreck.

Can't be arsed f***ing around with dodgy agents who lie either.

f*** 'em.

Ditto. I would have to leave anyways to start my term in London in Oct. but I wouldn't have mined staying over summer, practicing that Chinese, not having to bother with school etc. but just can't be arsed, it's no point going home and then back again with a 30 day visa, nor bothering with cheating agents... all in all I feel that this was for the best, now I have to go home over summer and work there, which will pay well so that I can actually afford London next year. Ugh,, not looking foreward to the price levels...

this because 70% of the chinese in Italy are illegally staying, with fake passports, fake visas, or no visas at all and, as soon as they arrive in Italy, they disappear (most of them have criminal files and they are wanted by the police). According to the police station of my hometown (Prato) there are 3100 "official" chinese, but actually they are more than 25,000 (on a total population of 171,000), all from Wenzhou. All the chinese i know there haven't any regular visa or any passport. That's why the Italian government doesn't release visas easily: they want to stop illegal immigration. And that's why i left my town: it became too dangerous and unsafe. Unfortunately, Italy has too many immigrants, a great deal of them illegal and they are creating lots of problems. 60% of crimes committed in Italy (drug dealing, murders, pronstitution, smuggling...) are done by immigrants. If a "honest" chinese wishes to go to italy, he'd have trouble getting the visa..

Same applies to Germany.
Yo will find Turkish, Spanish, Portuguese, and Greek immigrants who came when German economy was short of labour.
Then you have all the war refugees from Afgunnistan to Zimbabwe.
However, in my view ITALIAN IMMIGRANTS pose the biggest threat to publlic order. perhaps it is related to their long standing mafia tradition.
actually, you can never be sure whether an Italian restaurant is just that.
It might as well be a camouflage business facilitating money laundry.
Moreoever, quite often Italians (read:mafia) are involved in fatal shoot outs.
yeah, foreigners are so evil, especially those from Italy, or even worse from Sicily (those are 100% genuine mafia !!!)

besides, the Italians have stolen the world cup from us !!!!

sorry, a little bit off the original topic
