About Me:
I thought about writing an About Me. However, in favour of an About Me, I have decided to take a page from David Letterman and Strong Bad and do abbreviated versions of their Top 10s and Bottom 10s, just with 5 each. =)
Joel's Top 5:
#1: God.
#2: Family & Friends (they mean the world to me!).
#3: Writing stories.
#4: Vancouver Canucks (in triumph and defeat).
#5: Going to concerts.
Joel Bottom 5:
#1: Failure.
#2: Womanizers. For Real.
#3: Writer's Block.
#4: Heights.
#5: Being asked if I'm 16.
NOTA: Parlo italiano! Ho cominciato nell'anno 2007! Forse tu mi potresti aiutare?
ЗАПИСКА: Я говорю по-русский! Я в первом классе!

Requests:
I'm looking for penpals predominantly from Italy, France and Russia as I speak Italian and am in the process of learning Russian and French as well. =) Penpals from the rest of Europe would be appreciated also though, whether you're from Eastern Europe, Western Europe or the North or the South! =D
As a part of being penpals with whomever I met on here, I would like to meet you eventually! Next summer (2009), I am going to be traveling throughout Europe for 7-8 weeks! At least 4 of that will be in Italy though! =D I don't see myself traveling to Africa or Asia in the near future, so it's probably best if I pass on requests from these regions. I have nothing against people from either continent. It's just that I only have a certain amount of time that I can dedicate to penpals, as I am often very busy with school and work. I do, however, make time for any penpals that I have! =)
Just as a note: Not on here for any relationships/love/sex. Nor do I have any money that I can send to you. I can barely afford my university tuition. =(
As a final note: I would really appreciate it if you wrote more than just "hi," "hi, how're you?" or "how're you?" on my profile wall or in a message to me. I find these messages just make it very difficult to start a meaningful penpal friendship. I need something to respond to beyond, "I'm good."
I look forward to hearing from you all! =)

"Body Piercing Saved My Life" - Anonymous (No, I don't have any piercings. =P)
"The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried.” - G. K. Chesterton
"The pessimist complains about the wind, the optimist expects it to change, the realist adjusts the sails." -William Arthur Ward
"First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me." -Martin Niemöller (1946)

PS. In my picture, that is paint from going paint-balling with some kids from my Youth Group! =) It was fun....but hurt a lot afterwards...

Ciao Joel!! io ho viaggiato solo in Europa..ho visto la Francia, la Germania, l'Austria e la Svizzera!!! comunque mi fa piacere se posso aiutarti con l'italiano!!!! un bacio! =)
Hello Joel! :)
a writer?? wow sounds interesting! and what kind of things do you like to write?
You must be a busy person.. haha! with all those difficult languages you're learning and university.
Russian has to be so hard to learn, right?
So you're planning to begin learning Spanish? that's great! Feel free to ask any question you like about the language.
I'd like to learn Italian (which wouldn't have to be so hard for me, as it's similar to Spanish..) and another language very different from Spanish, but I don't have much free time because of the university..
Anyway, nice to meet you, and it'd be great to be penpals :)
have a nice day!

Ciao! Si, parlo un po' italiano, ma solo un po'! Ho dimenticato tutto! :( Hehe. Quando sono stata in Italia *last month* non ho capito niente perche gli italiani parlano..*with such strong local dialects*! :/ So that sucked. Lol.
Well, I wanted to live in Europe again, and my friend happened to want to come back to the UK, so I was like hey lets go together. :)
Admittedly we wanted to go to London or Edinburgh (in Scotland) but they're too expensive.. :/ Also, we did go up to Scotland for a bit and realised we couldn't understand a word anyone said up there. Haha ;)
12.5% Welsh eh? Like you great grandfather was welsh or something? :)
What am I into? Well.. Hanging out with friends, emailing, Facebooking, listening to music, playing soccer when I can, travelling, watching dvds -tv series are the best, you can just keep on watching them! Lol..
So what are you up to, working, studying..? Sorry it prob says on your profile but I have a terrible memory! :/ Lol

Hey! How are you? Just thought I'd leave a msg here cos it's not often that one comes across another Christian on this site who's actually into vaguely similar music and movies and stuff as me! Lol
Hot Fuss is an awesome album!
Anyways, I joined Interpals a while ago but now I finally have time to actually look for new friends -cos I have literally zilch to do these days- so if you'd like someone interesting to talk to then feel free to write back (not to sound full of myself lol but I always make sure my emails are actually interesting for the other person to read!)! =)
Have a great day and God bless =)
