As you would say over there "a whole different ball game" LOL
I was born and raised in the Philippines and I just came here last year for grad school. I don't really have a hometown because my family moved around, so I don't have any specific province's typical attitude. I was fortunate enough to have a family that has many foreigners as friends so I'm used to treading lightly until I get a good feel for the other person's culture.

Being an Everton supporter I have had to develop this over the years
I support Arsenal and my man is a lifelong United fan. Go figure! We'll obviously need two separate TV rooms for watching matches between our teams. Last November, I got to gloat, but when Arsenal lost to United last May, I came thisclose to making tampo. Good job he didn't gloat (I voluntarily cheered for United during the Champions League finals because he had been nice).

Hahaha! Maybe that's why we've never argued. He might be terrified of me! (I know you'll see this sooner or later, babe. You can tell me in private if you're scared. I promise I won't get upset.)
