beautiful

some random skater dude came up to me and told me I was really beautiful today....why is it that its ok when a random guy says youre beautiful but when they say youre hot its completely creepy? I dont know about anyone else, but I prefer beautiful over hot any day! I guess I didnt find it creepy at all because its the norm here. Guys are always saying things like that to girls they think are pretty or whatever so it wasnt like I was caught off guard, in fact it actually made me quite happy. Its a completely different world over here. Sometimes I despise when people are always complaining about weird things that are so normal here. For example, here when you meet someone, or see someone for the first time that day you say hi with a kiss on the cheek. I find that so personable and really kinda cute. I remember when I brought Jonas he thought it was completely awkward and complained all the time about it. I wish people had the opportunity to get out of the states and really see what the world is all about. There are soo many customs and traditions all around the world that are truly meaningful and beautiful. Meanwhile everyone in America become ignorant and blindsided.

I love the kisses on the cheek thing! Here people act so awkward when they meet each other. I think Latin American/Hispanic/etc. people are way more personable, I totally agree. Everything is carefree and fun, and here no one goes out of their way to be nice to random people.
