I liked it. I thought it was a pretty unique and cool anime. I couldn't expect
less from the creators of Cowboy Bebop. I really liked the clash between
historical events and more modern events, it just boosted the level of style up
a notch; and I'll admit the fight scenes were pretty AWESOME!
I don't think it's a matter of them liking being lonely, but more a matter of
them liking to be left alone.

it sometimes, I see lonely people and I want to talk to them, but they don't
seem interested, it's if they like to be lonely.
Have you ever thought that maybe they aren't actually lonely at all, and that
maybe they just like solitude. It doesn't necessarily mean that they're
anti-social and hate being around people. I think it's more like they don't need
to be around people constantly to feel happy. Haven't you ever felt like just
being alone? Be it either to read or draw peacefully or even to just think. Some
people prefer having their space so they can breathe rather then always feeling
suffocated in crowds.

noticed already, the original power rangers were pretty racist when assigning
colors to the rangers. they got the white dudes playing the red and blue power
rangers because they happen to be more "american" than other races.
the got a black dude to play the black ranger. an asian girl for yellow and a
white valley girl to play pink. even more, they got an irish dude to play the
green ranger. i personally think it's pretty funny but what do you guys
think?
Ha I noticed that too, and I always wondered if they actually did do that on
purpose or if it was a complete coincidence.
The Yellow Power Ranger rocked by the way. Sabertooth Tiger Awesome.
I'm honestly not a big fan of Shinn, don't really wish him any harm though...
well maybe a good smack or two and then he should get deported or assigned
somewhere, where we only see him once in a while. I definitely didn't like him
being the main character of GSD.
When I was younger, I used to make my bed everyday, probably only because my
allowance depended on it. But now well...I mostly only make it on the weekend
when I clean my room and stuff or if I know people are coming over. There's no
time in the morning, plus my reasoning is you are just going to mess it up again
later anyways. Oddly enough my mom doesn't seem to share my thoughts.
Ha..all the time...I seriously zone out all the time. Even when I'm trying my
hardest to pay attention...it doesn't last long, I would not be surprised to
find out I have a mild form of A.D.D.
Like right now I should be reading a book for tomorrow's class, but..well that
is how easily distracted I am.
HAha..Ralphie's story just reminded me of something that happened recently. This
happened a couple of weeks ago, it didn't take place in class, but it did happen
in school. Anyways, two of my friends and I were in the cafeteria, and one of my
friends (we'll call her B) was checking out my new cell phone, when all of a
sudden I got a text message. She tells me, but as she's in the process of
handing it over to me my other friend (we'll call her A) jumps at it and
snatches it from B saying she wants to see. She sits down quickly to try and
keep the phone away from me, and ends up by missing her chair, really hard. Not
only that but her chair went flying. It was like the biggest BOOM! ever. The
whole room went quiet and everyone was staring at us for like no joke ten
minutes. While this is happening B and I were laughing our heads off. A started
laughing too and even announced to all that she was alright. But it doesn't stop
there...oh no. A then turns around to pick up her chair only to find it lodged,
like hardcore stuck, in the chair of the person sitting behind her. She had to
use both hands and all her strength to pull it out. It was really hilarious. The
lesson of this story is "don't touch things that don't belong to you, it's
bad karma."
When I get sick with like the flu and stuff, I drag myself downstairs with my
pillows and huge blanket and make some sort of nest on my couch in front of the
TV. Then I select some DVDs and pop them in. For some reason "The
Mummy" and at least one or two Miyazaki movies make it on the list. Oh and
I always have some Camomile tea and eat a bunch of green peppers. Green
peppers...weird ritual, but I've been doing it since I was a kid, don't know if
it really works, it's probably just a placebo effect, but it always makes me
feel better.

Yes =_=
And unfortunately, I didn't know when to quit either. When you have two people,
arguing with eachother, who don't know when to quit...it's a very long, bad,
situation...
Honestly I vent it out first, even if it's just to myself out loud. Then I pop
in a good movie to get my mind off of it.
I never forget it or truly forgive it actually (definitely one to hold grudges),
but slowly I'll stop thinking about so frequently and move on.
I spend my money on anything and everything really.
Clothes, Dvds, books, video games, food and going out with friends.
I'm a very spontaneous shopper/spender. If I like something I'll buy it, if I
feel like ice cream I'll go get one, if I think something looks interesting put
it in the basket. I even buy movies more often then I rent them, my cousins
actually joke and say that my house is like a second BlockBuster. I don't
usually plan ahead of time on what I'm going to buy, it just happens. No
complaints yet. I only use my chore money anyways. I don't have any credit cards
or touch the money saved up in my bank account, if I didn't do this to control
myself though I'd definitely be in debt.
In High School I never skipped, but ever since I've started College, I've become
some sort of rebel.
It's just too easy now, and nobody cares. As long as I get all the material
after and pass all my classes then it's cool.
Plus it's not my fault that my school just happens to be attached to a shopping
mall and movie theater.
Whenever I hurt someone's feelings (even if they had it coming) I always feel
really guilty. Doesn't mean I'll always apologize afterwards though, since my
pride doesn't always allow it. But I still feel guilty.
As I've discovered there are quite a few anime fans around where I live. Most of
them unfortunately are closet fans, though there are those rare few who happen
to be intense hardcore anime fans. Due to their intensity though many
"non-anime fans" tend to look down upon anime or develop a hostile
opinion and view on anime. Which is sad, because they're missing out. It also
tends to make closet fans even less willing to bring their hobbies or likes into
the open. Which is also a pity.
It's true it had alot of pretty pictures and stuff, but it was more than that, I
really liked reading their articles too. I thought they did a pretty good job of
keeping the readers updated on the latest stuff. And of course the layout of the
magazine was really cool and different. It's true that it was a very pricey
magazine, though in the end I felt it was worth it, but the staff of NTUSA claim
that the price of the subscriptions was not one of the reasons for it's shut
down.
I recently just found out that the anime magazine known as Newtype USA which I
had subscribed to less than a year ago, was being terminated. I do not think I
need to mention to all of you just how distraught I was upon hearing this news.
This might sound very childish but I looked forward to getting that magazine, it
was like receiving a present every month, even though I was the one who
technically sent and paid for it. I spent months trying to find the right
magazine to subscribe to and then convince my mother to let me do so; and now
it's all over. I still had five months left on my subscription which really
sucked. Even though now a new mag has popped up under the name PiQ and is
sending me 10 issues to make up for the 5 I had lost with Newtype USA, it does
not even come close to the grandeur and awesomeness of the previous mag. And I'm
not just being sentimental and sulky, Newtype USA was incredible. I have never
seen anything like it before. What kills me the most is that I know I'll
probably never be able to replace it. But I'll ask you guys anyways if there are
any other anime magazines that you would recommend. (I do still need to stay
updated.)
If you too were a previous subscriber of Newtype USA and are saddened by the
news, feel free to tell me about it.
I've seen/read both and I have to say that the manga was much better. I just
find there wasn't enough time to explain or let the plot develop in the anime.
It doesn't do the story justice.

At the moment I'd have to say Sasuke hands down. But hey, you never know I have a feeling Naruto might just surprise us in the end.

Sakura from Cardcaptors all the way, though Sakura from Naruto is not far behind.

I refuse to even consider it.
Yes I know..I totally agree...

Personally no I can't, my sister on the other hand used to do it when she was younger. It used to really creep me out.
Wow that's funny, as soon as I read the title I also thought April Fools.
Currently I'm reading The Quiet American...for school..and to tell you the truth it's not that bad....

They actually never mention why. It's all very vague. If you want you can read what they wrote on http://www.newtype-usa.com/.
