NEWS! This layout is sooooo old. I'm planning on changing it soon when I'm completely free from school and learn how to use photoshop. XD <3

About | Me

Call me Mina instead of Minako. ^ ^ I'm 20 years old, birthday 06/20/87.

I have been on Gaia since Dec 2003. : D But I have been inactive before...at times drifting for a few weeks or months. At the beginning, I got into the breedables forum. Then it was minishops and then the exchange. And sometime later, I clung to the requests&commissions forum. But then I drifted around and went back to breedables and some minishops. During the past couple of years, I think the exchange has been the closest to a constant.

About | Layout

FINALLY. Yes. I finally got off my butt and designed a new layout. My first layout had been up for about 2 years. Check it out here. This is the second version, but it could seem like a first because it's the first layout where I've really explored more of the coding and abilities to move things around. I felt like I was learning everything over again. ;; But thank goodness for all these profile coding help threads. Visit them: o, o, o, o. I also got EditCSS [ a Firefox add-on ] and that helped so much. I recommend it! ^^ The whole designing and coding of this layout took me about 5 days, on and off. x3

Okay, now about the layout for real. xD I got inspired so much by awesome profiles I've seen around Gaia. This layout is called Evolution because it's an advancement from my previous layout. But it's still old-school. <3 I made everything myself. No images involved. Brush credits goes to: Hybrid Genesis.

Viewed good in Firefox or Internet Explorer, 1024x768.

Yeah, paperwork. Dx



You're finished with college?

o:

For some reason, I thought you were still in college-like in your last year or something.

xD

Go back to college for a different major, or get another degree for the major you already studied?

o:



Well, commitment isn't so bad to think about if you have a person your really, really love.

I would think commitment would be sorta natural in that circumstance.



Career?

Mmm.

I really like Biology, so I want to be either a High School/College Biology teacher, or a Genetic Counselor.

But that could change.

o:

I can be very indecisive.

I'm lazy, so I'm afraid I'd do bad with a science major.



What did you major in, Mina-chan?

Mmmhmm.

It doesn't come directly to me, no.

My mom set up special checking accounts for both my brother and I.

I only get money until I'm 18 though.

D;

So I only get a little more than 1 year left.

And my brother's only 12, nearly 13, so he get's at least 5 more years.

D<



Eww.

Taxes.

D:

I'm scared to do that.

-runs around in circles-

Is it hard?

T 3T



Yeah, my parents shoot me down every time I mention moving out at 18.

They think it's stupid to give up free housing during college.

But I'd never get anything done around here!

I can't pull all nighters whenever I want, and my dad would make me help him with a construction project-he always makes me drop whatever I'm doing to help. D<



Crap.

Until they're married?!?!

D:

I'd die....I would literally die.

I don't want to get married until after college.

After I get my master's degree and a secure job.

:3



I wanna do my research before I move out or anything though.

I wanna go to a Junior college for the 1st 2 years, so that will make things cheaper for awhile.

Oh, no, no.

The two boys aren't her kids, they're her half brothers.

The only thing they have in common is that they're all being lazy and they share the same mom.



I plan to move out and get a job when I'm 18.

x_x;;

Probably a far fetched dream, but I may do it.



Yeah, she's old enough to be my mom, and my parents are old enough to be my grandparents.

>->;;

But that's life I guess. xD

The good thing about having old parents is that I get money every month from my dad's social security because I'm still technically a dependent.

Don't get me started on family gossip.



Yeah, they all dislike her, except for her mother-my dad's ex-wife.

It's depressing, her mom-Helen-let's my sister-Tina- and her two other kids whose names elude me...

anyways, she let's the 3 of them live in her home free of charge and she gives them free use of the cars.

A couple months ago she asked my brother and his wife to live with her because she couldn't afford to pay for the house, so they lived with her and Helen charged them $1000 a month.

She even makes her own mom pay for things to live in the house, but my sister and the other two boys sit on their butts all day for free.

None of them try and get jobs.

=____=

I love my sister, I mean she is my sister, but I have no respect or sympathy for a person that lives that way.

And I haven't the slightest clue as to why Helen lets those 3 live like bums, what kind of a mother would do that?

I know it's 'taking care of your children', but she needs to teach them how to take care of themselves.

What are they all going to do when Helen dies?

-sigh-

The boys are 20+ years old and my sister is 42-adults that should at least get a job and pay rent in the house.

My parents will let me live at home for free until after I graduate college, but afterward if I'm still living here I'm expected to pay rent.

I think that's plenty fair, right? D:

Dang.

D:

I'm probably jinxing things, but everyone in my family is fine.

xD

No sickness.

Lulz.

Watch, I'll get a cold tonight.



Yeah, my dad doesn't really want to go to my Aunt's and Uncle's house tomorrow.

>->

He's stupid, he doesn't like my mom's side of the family too much, and he's stupid because he can't just suck it up for my mom.

=_=;;

The only person I don't really like is my Aunt.

>__>

The Aunt that we're visiting tomorrow, I love her to death, she's only related to my by marriage. The Aunt I dislike is my mom's sister.

D<

Unfortunately a blood relative....

My mom says I don't like her because I'm too much like her.



Probably true, but I'm not admitting that!

xD



My dad likes visiting my brother and his wife and mother-in-law, mainly because they all dislike my sister like he does.

-sigh-

He only enjoy people and their opinions when they agree with him.



Naw, no fireworks.

My parents think they're too dangerous for us to handle, plus they're illegal in my city.

D;

We'll probably look out my backyard and see some though.

Or watch them on TV.

Uhhh.

New Year's?

>_<

I can't remember the order...

I'm either going to my Aunt and Uncle's for New Year's Eve, and my brother and sister-in-law's house for New Year's day, or vice versa.

xD



How about you?



-glomps-

Gracias! n_n

Sick on Christmas.

Sounds like a b***h. D:

Are you better yet?





Nyah!

-glomps-

Thank you for the Christmas gift!

You didn't need to give me anything, Mina-chan.
