I took the Oath Ceremony today for the Naturalization of US Citizen. Since now, I am the United Stated Citizen Officialy! It was a very exiting and interesting Ceremony held at the LA Convention Center where UAL Tournament was. Now I am richer; I have 2 homes Armenia and America. That makes me happy!

The Journey to this point was nice and interesting. Since 2006 USAF Nationals in Denver, CO, where Mr. Bill Collins, John Burgeson, Simon Berriochoa trusted Me to participate in Nationals and carry the Honour of being the Member of USA National Armwrestling Team, I have won 2 World Gold Medals and 2 World Bronze Medals, rised the US Flag 4 times there and played the National Anthem 2 times at the World Arena. Also, tonnes of International, National, and other titles. Perhaps, this way I tried to serve My New Country. A lot of work has been done and there is gonna be more and more. To be continued...

I am very Proud, Honoured and Happy for this. Same time I took huge Responcibility of The US Citizen. Thanks everybody who supported Me all this time! You made Me feel Stronger. And thanks to those who "hated" Me and was in competition. You made Me to work harder and become briliant

Now, let Me log off to relax and enjoy this case. Fine wine is chilled and delicious desert is prepared for today....

I love you all.
