Streamjumper hilaroma ERA718 You know what I find funny? How all these kids really truly believe they'll move to Japan one day and not deal with exclusionary policies. I have to say that I am lucky enough to have some very good connections and friendships with many people in Japan. I am considered and included as part of my boyfriend's family. Even if you are as lucky as me though, no matter what, if you are a foreigner, you are always outside of the "circle" in some way, shape or form. Even if your Japanese is perfect, even if all of your mannerisms are perfectly Japanese, there will always be something that keeps you out of the club. That's just the way it is. sweatdrop Them kids (whoever they are) is Delusional. I've heard from a lot of people that it gets worse if you are clearly not Japanese, but have the mannerisms, accent, and language spot on. It freaks them out when a foreigner seems too Japanese. My dads a big white man. He can speak Chinese & Japanese. It freaks me out.

hilaroma So, arena description for Sailor Leper: Quote: Losing earlobes by moonlight, dropping skin by daylight, ever running from a real fight, she is the one named Sailor Leper! Sailor Leper was just an ordinary girl fighting a losing battle against her case of leprosy until one day, her colony was randomly attacked by monsters from the Negaverse! Suddenly, a light flashed down from the heavens, bearing a magical wand that our heroine used to transform herself into the mighty diseased warrior, Sailor Leper! Though she was unable to walk due to her horribly disfigured legs, Sailor Leper quickly dispersed the monsters with her powerful "Twilight Funeral Home Double Leprosy Kiss!!" From then on, Sailor Leper dedicated herself to protecting the poor, suffering, and disfigured children of the world from the evil forces of the Negaverse. She is the one...Sailor Leper!! I don't know...is it too serious? What do you guys think? I think it's cute!

Rave, that's tough.... all you can do is what the others suggested I think and just try to be there for her. If she does say something like "I'm going to kill myself" then you need to tell someone. It's really difficult... (I was in a situation like that a year ago) but it's the best thing to do, I think. I don't understand why people are so upset that a girl got pregnant. Accidents happen with sex, but as soon as someone gets pregnant people go apeshit and start calling her a whore and such. confused

Streamjumper Skizzors Streamjumper Skizzors I never heard the full version of "Libera Me from Hell" (Kamina's image song) before.. it's.. REALLY awesome. O__O Do you have the one ripped directly from the show, complete with sound effects? No, I'm listening to the CD version on YouTube. Is it better with sound effects? In my opinion, yes... My favorite version is ripped right from the episode complete with Kittan and Yoko talking at the beginning, Kittan screaming at the dark spiral engine, and Simon's resulting rage as well as all the sound effects. Its nice hearing the song by itself, but the whole shebang makes me want to go out and kick some serious a**. I still have that crying Arguably, I like it more than the clean Libera me from hell

Streamjumper ERA718 I needs me some chainmail tunic to make this look complete. BTW, I got an idea for the avi arena involving that year of the snake hat. Which color? If you're looking for the grey one, I can let you borrow mine. I kind of wanted the gold one but I'll give silver a try. BTW, I'm making something extremely good for the avi arena.....
