Lol 6'4, I guess i'm 1.95 then. Yeahh i'm pretty tall, my last girlfriend was 6'0... No one really wants to date a tall girl, though. Some one about 5'2 or so seems like the perfect height for a girl I think. For a guy at least, are you a lesbian or bi? I don't remember and don't really know if most girls look for something different I guess.
Hmm i'm taking french next semester. Should be interesting for sure, I really like other languages and it just sounds beautiful, but studying there for a year? That'll be really interested. I know some one who did that... They said everyone hated americans haha, she told everyone that she was canadian and they liked her a lot better almost instantly. I don't know why most people make such a huge divide between sexes, like they're so much different or something. It is just crazy or weird or something. I couldn't understand being a virgin in to your late 20's... I'm honestly not really that good looking and probably just average at best and I've always done pretty well, I started dating when I was around 15 and been since then... I mean not everything would be as serious, like just a few dates and stuff, but i've had people come up to me and ask me for my phone number or have friends ask if I'd want to date or be FWB or whatever, and they're normally nice people who aren't sleezy or anything. It just seems like you almost have to try and avoid it I guess? I'm sure everyone has had so many people interested in them that they'd just have to strike up a conversation with the right person for something to happen I guess. I just couldn't see never going on a date till you're almost 30.
I'm kind of the opposite way with art and music... with music I normally constantly switch between scales and keys and so many chromatic parts and stuff that it can just sound really messy, where I always have really clean and boring sketches. I should really try switching those around some time. I feel like I used to be so much better at guitar then I am now, I've kind of lost a lot of ambition towards it and don't have much that makes me really want to play. I have nice gear that I can't use during most hours. I don't have anyone else to play with or for.
That doesn't sound arrogant at all, that's totally true. I wish I had some one like that when I was younger, but it's really awesome of you to help her and encourage her with everything like you are. Don't you have perfect pitch? Think she'll get it too? Haha teaching kids is really hard. I think my niece just has like no attention span, though. Just getting her to watch a kids movie is a pain a lot of the time, she's either glued to something or constantly bouncing around and asking for something every 5 minutes.
Yeahhh i'll wait till she's like 14 or 15 or whatever I guess. I think she should start like gymnastics while she's young, though. It's weird to see how strong she is, she already has massive lats and delts. Like most adult guys don't have as much of a V taper as she does, but she's really tiny. Super short and petite. When she's bored she does chin ups, though. The other week I kept having her do them to try and wear her out and I got her to do 5 sets of 10, which is crazy.
Wow, you sound like a domestic house goddess =p I like cooking a lot, and growing plants too... I'm the first generation in my family since like the early 1800's to not have a chef in it. My brothers a medic and i'm going to be an engineer. Growing plants is just cool... To physically help something beautiful grow I guess. I grow herbs mostly. I have tons and tons of mint for cooking but it grows like a weed anyway. I'd like to grow tobacco, I think that'd be so cool. and you don't type too much at all, I like reading all the stuff you have to say.
Hahaha why "I am a turnip"? That's really funny. That's really cool that you dye it pink then, that's funny... having my hair a certain length makes me happy too, but honestly it just seems like i'm in a good part of my life whenever my hair is that length or something. I died my hair pink once by accident, I didn't leave the red dye in long enough. I think i've had my hair every color so far.
I looooove rats and bats! I follow ******** and fyeahbats on tumblr, they're amazingly cool. I wish I had some, I have a sugar glider right now though and everyone thinks that he's a bat hybrid thing lol.
Hmm i'm almost 20 and almost never drink. I get the chance to a lot, but I just don't enjoy it. It makes me feel really depressed and sick.
Haha yeah, I wanted to be a mortician, which is both an embalmer and a funeral director. At least in Texas, the term Mortician isn't used in many places and kind of outdated. I still would really like to do that and probably would if it paid better, but you also have super shitty hours... People always die at the most inconvenient times.

Hah, this conversation is multiplying itself like bacteria. It's half midnight and I'm tired so what I type may not completely make sense, as a warning.
One of my favourite people ever is 6'4", therefore I like you a smidgen more, in my head. I guess I'm bi, though I've been with my girlfriend long enough that I don't really think about it any more. I guess I can understand what you're saying about the late 20s virgin thing... I guess once you've got to a certain age, sex stops being a big deal and is just a part of a relationship. I do find it hard to believe that there are people out there who've never so much as been on a date with someone past a certain age - I mean, at that point, you'd just try going out with whoever asked you, wouldn't you? From my experience, you'd have to be pretty damn repulsive for there not to be at least the occasional person asking for your number or whatever; if you've never had a date at 25 or whatever, wouldn't you just take someone up on it sometime? Idk. I don't get why people make a big divide of the sexes either. Mind you, I'm the sort of person who finds racism to be a highly confusing concept, so maybe I'm just not very good at getting my head around that sort of thing.
I wisssssh I was the opposite way round with art and music: loose and free with composition and neat and clean with drawing has got to yield better results than vice versa. I hate the music I write, because it's just so fricken dull. I guess I should practise more. I should practise in general more, I am totally screwed for my exams. Arrrrgh. Why do you think you've lost interest in guitar? Just because of lack of reason?
Teaching little kids is pretty hard, because of the attention span issues, but older ones are good if they're interested in what you're teaching them. I guess you need a lot of patience, but I find it's pretty hard to get frustrated at someone else's ability to play. I'd like to teach properly, I've found it pretty satisfying on few occasions I have tried. Always mean to look into it but I've no idea where to start. Have you ever taught anyone guitar? And yeah, I do have perfect pitch... can't really remember to what extent it was natural and how much work I put into refining it. Think it was pretty automatic for me, but my sister's clearly learning. She's fairly accurate at the moment; a bit hit and miss sometimes, but she's usually within a semitone or two of the actual note. I don't really believe it's a rare ability or whatever, I think you just have to be determined enough to remember all the notes.
Does your brother take your niece out to do any sports or anything? You make her sound like some sort of wonderchild. razz Who knows what she might achieve if she found something she really loved and started working hard on it at such an early age?
I'm impressed you know anything about your family in the early 1800s. I barely even know anything about my grandparents, it's terrible really. Just never asked, I guess. Although my grandpa on my dad's side sounds like he used to be a pretty interesting guy: he was a gynaecologist, could perform hypnosis to do surgery, separated siamese twins....oof I'm falling asleep. I'm so diurnal nowadays.
How big is a sugar glider? Are they hard to look after? I don't think anyone keeps them as pets here. I always wish I could keep bats but I think you have to have some sort of licence, and to release them into the wild and stuff, because they're endangered. Sometimes we get them in our garden on summer evenings, though. Stayed in this house in Scotland once that had bats living in the trees in the garden, I loved watching them.
So, what's the optimum hair length? I kept experimenting with my hair the past couple of years until I dyed it all pink and decided I liked it. It was funny watching my uni flatmates' reactions: "you've dyed your hair again?" Oh, and I've no idea why "I am a turnip," I can't really remember. Some conversation I had when I was like 12 or something.
Funny that you feel depressed when you drink - I generally get really happy when I drink around people. Or, at least, less subdued, maybe not necessarily happy. I just talk an awful lot (much like I do here) and 'make friends' with strangers and laugh at things. I must be a complete spaz when I drink. I try not to do it too often, though, seeing how much it affects me it can't be too good for my liver.
Why did you want to be a mortician? Seems an odd career to go for without a particular reason.

Hahaha yeah, What started out as swapping skype names.. It seems like no one else goes on the forum anymore, kind of sad.
Lollll i'm very glad then, Is it some one you know in person or some one famous? That's really sweet that you think of it that way, how long have you guys been together?
Yeah, sex is so much different from in high school or something now... It's more like another romantic activity and not like that biggest highlight of your life that you'll write a movie about and the world stops turning for.... God kids are stupid lol. I'd assume that you'd just settle for anything or something... I know some people who are so beautiful and smart and have so much going for them, and they're even in that mindset of "I should do whoever would accept me" because they're afraid of being like that or something... I don't know. I go to some body building forums and stuff and some of the people there have just amazing bodies and are really attractive people, but you see a lot of stuff where I guess they're just socially retarded and a lot of them end up losing their virginity to a prostitute or something. That's kind of a shitty first time or something I guess, I don't know. I also never really got racism until I started living in a shitty neighborhood. Like I assumed people weren't REALLY like that and that it was a thing of the past, until I started getting beat up by gangs of people for being white... It's stupid. I don't dislike people just because they're black or feel like black people are inferior or something but I guess i'm a lot more distrustful of anyone who all ghetto or shady. Kind of like the chavs over there I guess?
Yeah, lack of reasons, lack of time, new interests, school, things like that... I started playing again now but I'm not as interested in the things I used to play.. Now it's more like jazz or prog stuff, instead of like stoner metal. I don't have any friends who play anything so it's like I only do it for myself and with myself anymore and don't really have anyone to share with. I liked this girl for a while who wanted me to teach her guitar so I started playing a lot again, to try and play really well for her. She turned out to be a b***h so it didn't stay like that for too long.
Hmmm i've often wondered if I could learn perfect pitch, I have uhhh... perfect relevant pitch or something like that, where I can tell if notes are sharp or flat without a reference, I can also name intervals if I hear them, so I've thought maybe I could learn? A lot of people tell me that it's something you can't learn, that you either have it or not... Then again like 80% of the people who visit the musicians forum like once claim to have it. Teaching little kids is like impossible... they have no attention span lol. I've taught some of my friends to play guitar with varied results. I was trying to teach this one girl but she didn't really have patients, didn't want to learn basics either... She just wanted to learn some Mastodon songs. How about you? ever taught? Didn't you say that you wanted to become a music teacher?
Nah, he works like aaaalll the time and his wife doesn't really do a ton for them. It kinda sucks, I like when they're over so I can show them stuff, like music or games they can play with each other and stuff, or teaching them how to read better. Lol the six year old likes to sit on my lap and listen to death metal while watching me play zombie games. Lol she gets all into it too, like she'll keep trying to turn it up really loud. The games called Killing Floor and I play it in groups with my friends and I always play a medic, but like there are these zombies that are huge and slow but spray acid on everything, and when she seems them she's like "THERES ONE GET IT". She's pretty brave lol, she doesn't get freaked out by stuff like that. I always show her pictures of like sea creatures and drawings of squid and stuff and she likes them a lot.
Are your grandparents still alive? That'd be a really good thing to ask them... I know I always think of stuff now that I wish I asked when they were still alive... The kind of stuff that my mother didn't care about I guess, and now I feel like it's lost forever. Pretty sad, really. Wow, now that seems like a really interesting guy... I've always been interested in the hypnosis stuff because of Rasputin.
Sugar gliders are really easy to care for, mine is a little biter smaller then normal I think, he's about 100mm or maybe a bit bigger. You have to play with them every day if you don't keep them in your room... Mine sits on a cage on top of my dresser, so he gets to socialize with my dog who sleeps on my bed and I play with him. They get attached to people and dogs, it's kind of strange. My Corgi puts its head up and like smells around the cage when the sugar glider wakes up, it's cool. You just have to get a special feed for them, and they're a bit expensive but they're really cool. They also make your room smell like musk and apples, though. Ahh yeah so keeping bats is more for like conservation? That'd still be really cool to do... That's so awesome, I'd love to see them just like sleeping and things.
Optimum hair length for a girl? I'm kind of partial to real long hair, i've got some what of a hair fetish really. I like long, curly blonde hair, but I love all kind of women I guess. I just hate when it looks really unnatural, like the bleach blonde hair with the fake bake tans... That's what most of the women in Texas look like, it's kind of the style here. It's gross, and they're all super thin. I don't like it at all, I like women who don't wear make up or straighten their hair and stuff. I think people look more beautiful as they are I guess? I totally missed the question, though. Normally I like girls with hair around their elbows, just because I like long hair, but I think any length would look good. I've seen some pictures of you on tumblr and I like your hair a lot, it looks really cute pink. I had my hair around my elbows once. I get really curly hair and so I had like black locks of hair. Haha have you had your hair a ton of different colors? Where they natural ones, or like pink and stuff? You should post more pictures of different colors.
Hahaha you sound like you'd be really funny to be around when you were drinking. I'm really quiet and stuff already and don't normally enjoy talking to a lot of people... So when I do drink i'm more like "Ugh ******** everyone and now I feel sick and want to crawl up in a corner and stare at the wall".
Hmmm I always thought I would be good at it. The stuff didn't bother me, like watching embalming. I don't think I would be bothered by it, I'm good with talking to people. I'm not socially awkward or anything. I also felt like I could actually help some one and do something I would be interested in, compared to other jobs that I didn't care at all about and would just be doing for the money and hating it otherwise. I've always been really into funerals I guess. I think corpses are extremely beautiful, which is something i've only told like 2 people before. They look so much more at peace then normal people. I would have liked to help some one see a family member like that again, not like how they really looked when they died. I ended up changing at the last moment because my (at the time b***h of a girlfriend who I broke up with) didn't like that I would have to leave at any hour of the night or during dinner or something, and was worried that if she decided that she didn't want to work, I wouldn't make enough money to support both of us since she wanted to have kind of an extravagant life. She was such a b***h. I have no clue why I was with her for so long.

The tall person? He's my best friend (although calling anyone a 'best friend' makes me feel like I'm about six years old). He's silly and gay and lovely. We seem to spend a lot of time with his guitar and my uke out when we're together now (he's still on stairway and breakfast at tiffany's, hahah)... when I think about it, there are very few people who I make music with casually, if that makes sense, not with any purpose and not from sheet music. Anyway, yeah, my girlfriend and I have been together since we were 16, and it feels weird to imagine myself with anyone else nowadays.
You can't really blame kids for thinking sex is this amazing, life-changing thing; it's sort of the way it's portrayed in the media and the way people talk about it to younger people (wait until you're ready, don't ruin your first time, etc, etc). It's kind of weird to think how many people have it in their heads that they're utterly repulsive or something, just because they'd never kissed a boy by the time they were 15 and started assuming that they were doomed forever or I don't even know. I think it's those sorts of people who make a bigger deal out of relationships in general, though, like saying you'd like to go out with someone is going to be this groundbreaking moment for the both of you or something. I'm not sure I'm making sense. Never minnnnd. I should stop only coming here when I'm tired and fed up with life.
You mean people are distrustful of chavs? Yeah, I guess that's true. But there tends not to be a race distinction between who's chavvy and who isn't.
You could probs learn perfect pitch, I'm of the (as yet untested) opinion that pretty much anyone who isn't tone deaf is capable. It's definitely something you can learn, I guess it's just refining your internal distinction between pitches - I mean, I bet if someone hits a key on a piano, you can guess within a range of about 4 or 5 notes what they played... it's just learning the specific tones instead. I'm a bit weirded out by all the kids who come to the musicians' forum just to say "guess what, I have perfect pitch!" Idk what that's about. I suppose some people make a big deal out of it and and like it's some superspecial musical endowment, so maybe they just want to be told how amazing they are. Most people on the internet seem just to want to be told how amazing they are.
I've never taught properly, just little bits here and there when people have wanted to learn stuff. I like it, though, watching people get better, and how pleased with themselves most of them are when they nail something. I've toyed with the idea of teaching music, but I don't think I could do it in a school setting (not authoritative enough to run a class full of kids who don't all want to be there). Not sure about stuff like that, should really get to thinking about it seriously before I'm done with uni, though. I'm terrible at thinking ahead.
Heheh, six year old who likes metal and zombies. Sounds like a cool kid. Mind you, my littlest sister's favourite movies have been Tim Burton ones since she was like 5, and she loves Neil Gaiman books now (I promised her I'd lend her some Sandman when she was... much older) alongside like the Disney Channel and Justin Bieber. I like that little kids don't seem to be bothered with fitting into one box or another, they just like what they like.
Three of my grandparents are still alive, although my grandpa that I was talking about has alzheimer's and doesn't remember who I am any more. I dunno, I feel like I should want to know more about my family history, but at the same time, I sort of don't. I'm not sure why, it's weird to think about. I get the impression that for my gran who's still alive, talking about her family might be quite painful, too, she talks sometimes about her mum losing her marbles on her deathbed and stuff.
Lol I love that you have a corgi, in my head corgis are just what the queen has. I have the problem that I've always wanted an alsatian, but that me and my girlfriend both love rats... probably not a genius idea to keep a big dog and little rodents in the same house. Keeping bats is definitely for conservation, they're pretty endangered so there's lots of laws about them. Still, I'd love to be able to do it if I could, I really love bats. They seem to accumulate in my presence: toy bats and mice and rats. People just give me them.
Mmm I love really long hair too. In high school I had a crush on this girl who had superlong curly blonde hair... it was lovely. And my girlfriend has long, thick, curly hair too, I'm sort of jealous mine doesn't grow like that. =P I don't get the appeal of girls who look really synthetic, either... I don't know what people find attractive about it, apart from that I guess it makes you look available and interested in getting with people or something. It just doesn't look nice to me... Mind you, I think I tend to be attracted to 'unconventional' types of people anyway... Tbh I think looking happy and interesting is far more attractive than looking like you spend half your time at the salon.
Hahah but yeah I was asking about your hair really, since you said that you felt happier when it was a particular length. I really like it when guys have proper long hair, it's a shame so few do... I guess it's looked down upon for guys, though. I'm trying to grow my hair longer at the moment... It's getting there, very slowwwwwwly. Problem is it keeps needing trimming cause dyeing it isn't exactly great for it... I kept doing little bits different colours for a while, like I'd dye the underside pink or a couple of random streaks of different colours (mainly pink and blue), once I dyed my whole head orange just because I felt like it... Thing about unnatural colours is they don't tend to stay in for very long, and I wasn't lightening my hair to make it go on better either, so it washed out to natural again in a couple of weeks. I liked being able to just dye it how I felt like for a little while, though. And I've had some lushhhhh purple in with my pink, but dyeing your hair two colours is so much more effort than just one.
It's funny how different people respond to alcohol. I'm like the complete opposite to you, I'm usually a really happy, excitable drunk. But I guess it depends on your mood to begin with, anyways.
I think it's pretty cool that you're so enthusiastic about something like that. I've never seen a dead person so I can't comment on the corpses being beautiful, hah. It's a shame about the crappy girlfriend. It sort of disgusts me how many girls think they ought to have the option just to decide not to work if they don't want to, like it's perfectly reasonable to expect your boyfriend/husband to pay for absolutely everything for you just because you want them to... I mean, it's fine if you decide together that it would be a good idea, like if you had kids and wanted to look after them at home rather than sending them to nursery, but just assuming that it's your right as a woman to stay at home and cook dinner every now and then? There's just no reason, I mean, it's not like women can't get jobs for themselves nowadays.
