[QUOTE=Godelsensei] [COLOR=Gray][FONT=Courier New]I'm not sure about whether or not I like this chapter. Regardless, it's what came out. Enjoy. Hong Hing: Gai-jin = foreigner Onna = woman I leave it to you to figure out the rest.[/FONT][/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR=darkred]Thanks... Well, in my opinion it lacks the same kind of humour your previous chapters had.. perhaps.. this was more, sentimental. Definitely. I'm glad you actually update on a regular basis that way I don't forget what I read previously and therefore I don't need to go back and re-read everything all over again ^__^ I like.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Absolutely adoring the story. And I like how your characters are starting to be more genuine making them easier to believe. I think a really difficult thing to do is to write deeply about more than one character and actually make them two completely different people, without that problem of accidently merging them. It's all good in my opinion, too bad I don't understand Japanese. But it's only a minor detail since you've clearly made it an obviously unpleasant name to call someone.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]oh...damnit...I read it during class but couldn't comment so I was hoping to be the first one to say how great this new chapter was but I was beaten..by about 3 other ppl.. -_- Oh well..keep writing..must learn more 0_0[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]*sigh* Godel, you are quite a brilliant fictional writer... I personally would like to have some of that talent. Although it's infintely more interesting that the book I have to read for English, but I don't think it's affecting my opinion...too much Oh well, keep writing it, I wanna find out what happens!![/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Dragon Warrior] I made a sexah home-made costume of Zorro! It looks amazing and almost just like Antonio Banderas' suit--ye know, only I'm sexier. So, are you people going trick-or-treating because you're silly and what's your costume? God my oh! A ghost :^D[/QUOTE] [COLOR=DarkRed]....I couldn't resist...I actually though Antonio Banderas made an amazingly wicked Zorro. Damn sexay voice. I suppose if DW were sexier than that then he would be a chick magnet..hahahaha I've never really gone trick-or-treating either, but this year I was thinking of borrowing somebody's little kids, dress up in "something"...maybe "borrow" some angel wings, or use my cat ears and go off and have a merry time. Oh well, I can't spend too much time on it, my exams are pretty close to that date *sigh* before I forget, I'll also drag a lackey of mine along so I don't have to deal with the sticky-fingered little kids too much XD [/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Lalaith Ril][COLOR=Indigo]Man things have changed since I was fourteen...wait that was two years ago. [/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DarkRed]XD I was just thinking that myself. Seriously, she seems happy and fulfilled doing what she does, so why don't you go out and get yourself a couple of new girl friends and have a go at getting a few boy friends too. That way you both have a future together since all your needs are fulfilled even if by other people!! 0_0 Excuse me for my apparent rudeness, but doesn't this at all strike you as being one of those made for tv soap opera stories which a lot of people like to laugh at because of how silly the situation is? No, okay, maybe it's just me :laugh: [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]It's fascinating, and I can tell it has been quite well thought through. I certainly like the style you described the way things were happening..er it sort of gives me that feeling how death isn't typically an exciting thing and so the descriptions were interesting but still continued the monotony and pervasiveness that is death...I find it quite amusing. Especially when he stops death for a time and it's almost like "oops...oh well" and it's rather fatalistic and satirical. I can't really think of anything about I don't like, it's just amusing for me.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed] Depends what kind of dance it is. There's ball room dancing where you stand with the partner and sway a bit :-/ which is tragically boring. But you can follow some generic moves and bob up and down a bit to the beat. Just remember, whatever you do don't over do it. It's better to have smaller subtle moves than anything extraordinary. Or there's the other thing people do, which is do some hand actions that go with the words of the song. Or those funky old moves like the monkey, the twist and swimming or something like that :s Anyway, can't exactly "tell" someone how to dance, it's much better to have someone show you. One thing that never fails is to look around and copy someone else's moves ;) personally as long as a guy is willing to dance with me I don't care too much about how they dance. Dancing like you're being electrocuted is pretty forgivable.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Well, I agree with a bunch of the other people..and I'm really too lazy to give them credit. The ones who say something about stupidity being a terrible disease that infects us all and the ones who say that it changes with levels of maturity. I won't say anything about the girl that sits next to you who can't follow proper procedure, I think a number of people already ripped you a new one for saying what you said :p I personally think the greatest amount of stupidity lies with the sexuality of kids these days. I might be slightly off topic, but it's a terrible concern. Maybe I grew up in a prude environment..in fact maybe my friends and I grew up in a prude environment, but today I'm finding that a rather innocent 13yr old has already had two boyfriends. Her friends don't read 'teen' magazines like Girlfriend, instead they read Vogue (I just hope like hell they're not reading Cosmopolitan). At that age I didn't exactly read those magazines, but my friends certainly did. I often hear about 9 yr old boys that have a girl friends as well. As far as I know they've already been experimenting. The worst bit is seeing girls as young as 8, wearing mini-skirts, halter tops, calf high leather boots and whatever other kind of slutty clothing you can think of. It's...disturbing. Then you have all those freaky teenagers online that are asking some of the stupidest questions to do with sex. The stupidest I've seen is "How do you hump? My bf wants to know." 1/If he doesn't know she should know. 2/If they had to ask it then they shouldn't even think about doing it. Seriously, I have actually seen more than one person ask that...so there isn't just one of them -_-"" AARGh...I can't exactly lay the blame in any particular direction. But what I wrote in my most recent myotaku entry has a significant amount of relevance I believe. It specifically targets the music industry, or more specifically the horror I've been seeing in music videos lately. Anyway, I'm tired and angry with this. However what I typed looked reasonably coherent. Good night all.[/COLOR]

If it has been this much of a long term problem then do something about it. Or else it gets dragged on and on and then you'll start second guessing yourself wondering whether or not you should've done something earlier. Seriously if you're going to look at it in the most cynical way possible, (something I'm very fond of doing) then yes, you are going on an ego trip to help this girl. It's an ego trip because she's a bothersome problem to you and you want to remove that problem. By getting help for this problem you feel better because something is being done about it. Other people will thank you for doing something about it, whether or not they verbally thank you is different. But you'll feel better anyway. Ultimately if she does get better then she'll have you to thank for helping her. Otherwise known as being a Good Samaritan or charity. My opinion is that I'd help her anyway before she passes the point where going back is just as painful as falling in deeper. Although like Godelsensei has said, if she's doing it for attention like many "Angsty/angry teens" of today *rolls eyes* then she'll probably shun the psychiatric help and hate you for it and accuse you of the entire ego trip thing.. If it's really that bad then getting someone else to take the responsibility can't make it much worse.

[COLOR=DarkRed]...*cough cough*..well...*hack*...um...*gasp--wheeze*...I just wanted to say *grates throat and finally clears it*... Excuse me for rudely clearing my throat in absolute disbelief of your blatant egomaniacal statements of your fantastical abilities. But since you obviously expect people to disbelieve and state very clear facts to disprove you, then...what was the point of telling us about it? Anyway when you "finally" reach that kind of "level" (I'm getting a strange feeling I'm reading about a DBZ fanfic) and can prove your fantastical powers I say Wrist Cutter all the way!! GO WRIST CUTTER!! KICK HIS ***!!! ^o^ [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]lol!!! There is no way people could be inherently bi. Or else you wouldn't get extremely homophobic men/women. Unless you're going to try argue that they're homophobic because they once thought they might've been gay and find it a personal attack or something... But I must agree with a lot of the other people who label such experimentation as being bi-curious... I myself have had moments of bi-curious discussion with a close friend. We haven't really gone anywhere with it. It's the usual, flirt back and forth, act intimate in public just for some attention, mostly coz we get quite bored with life sometimes..except that she feigns complete and utter jealousy if another girl flirts with me (of course then one starts to wonder why other girls would flirt with me in the first place, I really don't have an answer to that). Although I think it almost got me into a bit of a mess once, my Exbf (my bf at the time) thought I had cheated on him with her :p that was bad...hahahahaha...oh well... Experimentation is a good way of figuring out where you sexuality is heading. Plus it makes for some interesting stories in the future. I know I'm straight, but it's the curiousity that drives me :)[/COLOR]

hahahaha...after the two posts before mine I know I'll feel outshadowed by them. Nevertheless this is something I can think of an answer to. No, I wouldn't want to choose the sex of my baby. Why should it matter? As long as it looks, eats and acts like a human it must be one. However, for those who do wouldn't that affect it's gender traits?? I've given this about 10 seconds worth of thought and I wonder if the baby was originally, genetically a male but you change it to be a female or vice versa wouldn't that affect it's general personality? Would you end up having a slightly unusually feminine boy? Or perhaps a butch girl? Although the point of being a parent is to love whatever pops out, kinda like in Aliens 4:p

eh...I couldn't quite follow the plot of the last one anyway. I'm off to bed, I'll be back in a few days to catch up :) ------- There lived a small person, Frodo Who be a child to our eyes He dreamed of far off places, yo-yo's and...yummier pies Word: Sam ------ EDIT: It was 1am I couldn't think of anything else that rhymed with Frodo...besides he IS dreaming :p

"Sticks 'n' stones may break my bones But words can never hurt me" Such childish chants echoes below the sun Who could say such things.. Oh dear me...could it be, mum?!?! ---- Not very rhyming but I tried : / Word: blue

Derithus: Quick before I feed you to the horses Whilst I dance merrily to my favourite band. Jester:Of course, Of course Wait not. Here it is. In my hot little hand. I have no idea what's going on, but I just thought I'd have a quick go Word: Funky

hehehehe :D Sorry, I just find it slightly amusing to see someone ask for advice on becoming a teen. Other than having to learn to control those "hormones". However by already realizing that most teens are annoying as %*#$ you're already on your way to becoming a better teen. Considering you see the others as being 'over dramatic' don't you think you're overreacting just a little bit to the fact that your age will place you into a new catergory which is totally over dramatized/rated...??? You'll be fine. Look at it this way. In about seven years, assuming the I'm-dark and mean-so-don't-mess-with-me wannabes don't get to you first, you'll be an adult and will be considered 'normal' ;)

[QUOTE=cloricus] If you will note no one wasted the time saying that because it was so openly blatant. Think about it. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. Therapy. I just thought I'd say it a bit more as people here seem to think the word solves everything and anything, just like the great ideal that a pill with fix everything! In fact I love the idea! Lets put it up every where with signs and the world will be perfect! Or maybe not.[/QUOTE] Who said anything about getting her medicated? There's always psychologists. They even work together sometimes to try work through the issues. [quote name='cloricus'] Did it not strike any one here that it would be odd that she has been in therapy but did not continue? Does this not suggest some thing? It does it me, two such things. 1) The help wasn't what she needed. Which is rather common, remember the people on the other ends of these sessions are only human and can only advise, not solve problems. Or 2) she wouldn't open up so nothing could be done. Either of these solutions really leaves you are a blank brick wall that is deciding if it should fall on you or not.[/quote] Hence she needs someone she can trust who has some idea what they're doing, however Totalimmortal is obviously in no condition to give her the full support and advice she needs. He did say he actually considered getting into cutting himself. In that case he himself must also have problems he needs to sort out. I'm just trying to be honest, I'm not attacking you Totalimmortal [quote name='cloricus']The real solution here is for her to stop, sort out her problems, and get on with it. No one else can help much in this process as I've already pointed out. [/quote] Oh yes...well put. If only the mysteries of the human psyche were so easily solved. However cloricus does have a subtle point. It's really her decision if she wants the help. If she chooses to "wallow" in these issues and not deal with them then there's really not much hope.

Sure...you can help her...get her to a therapist. Make sure she finds one that she feels she can trust. Listen and support. Also, if you're feeling to emotionally exhausted to listen to her then tell her to talk to another friend because you're tired or something. It's alright to take a small break, because that's a lot for her to put on you. And no matter what you do. Don't feel responsible for whatever she does. NEVER, EVER feel responsible because that's when you'll get dragged down. As for you I suggest you go visit the school counsellor, they'll give you some coping techniques and other helpful suggestions, but most should tell you what I just told you. I know because I'm still trying to help my friend, and I can fully understand why someone would cut. I'm glad I never started because it's addictive, dangerous and usually leads to suicide attempts. That's when things start to get fun.

[COLOR=DarkRed]You can tell that this is probably not as developed (in terms of idea) as some of your more recent poetry. It definitely seems very cynical, when you constantly talk about 'lies' and how destructive they are. I quite like this poem, although you do have much better ones than this. Simplistic with some really good metaphors like "Eternal gnawing on my heart" Excellent line. However, maybe it's just me. But reading this is really unnerving for me..*shrugs*[/COLOR]

[quote name='BlueGender][COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]If I were to die today or tommorow I dont think I would have any real regrets. I mean I guess I would reget the fact that I have never expierenced real love and will never get to get a job have children and watch them grow older but those are not my fault so I wouldnt spend to much time thinking about that. But yeah when its comes time to die theres nothing I can do but face it with eyes open.[/SIZE'][/COLOR][/quote] Agreed...except the part about children. Don't want 'em. Although the major thing I would regret is never becoming a serial killer....*smiles innocently* EDIT:although yes I have considered dying. It's not a high priority. Why should I die if I'm alive? I live because I can. Just like the extremists who climb moutains because they're there.

[quote name='callmegoddess04'] Yeah. I don't trust magazines. There is a difference, DerelictDestiny, between horoscopes and astrology. Horoscopes are supposed to tell you whats gonna happen. Astrology just describes you and how others like you think... somethin like that. [/quote] [COLOR=DarkRed]Thank you for answering my question. In that case. How charming, slotting people into different personality/mentality catergories based on their birthdays... So therefore once you run into a new someone, learn their birthday you would've instantly developed a judgement of their character based on that...? Still very charming. Reminds me of Tom Cruise who thinks astrology(?) is the way to go and psychology is nothing but psycho-babble. :laugh: 23 October 1987. I'm easily amused during the holidays :p . I'm curious to know what astrology has to say about me. It'd be nice to know a bit more about astrology. Honestly though, I still believe psychology all the way. :smirk: [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]yes....I agree with Mitch. But we do have direction. It's just how we choose to get to that point. As a normal person we're meant to get educated, work, retire then die.I don't feel any sense of attatchment to the people. Some of them aren't half bad though. Only good for laughing and wasting time with. My senior year is boring so far. I often ask myself why the hell am I still there?? The obvious answer is for the benefit of my future self. I'm just jumping with exuberance at the suspense of going through all the excitment of life!! Honestly though, I plan on skipping my last year at senior high school and go straight to University. No point sticking around in that educational prison facility when I have an exit just waiting for me to push open. All I need to put into is actual work. However if I fail that assessment for the third time at the end of the year I might as well not even bother applying. As for the rest of my life. I plan of getting a fancy degree, make lots of dough and have some (a lot) of fun along the way. If I'm going to retire I might as well do it rich.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Well, perhaps you'd like to enlighten the ignorant ones (such as myself) as to the difference between astrology and horoscopes. After all they're based on the stars and a persons' birthday. Then neatly placing people into little catergories for other people to judge whether or not they will get along. Just because I'm scorpio to some magazines and libra to others does that mean I have a split personality?? Librans are supposedly balanced and peace loving yet scorpions are meant to be hot in more than one way. That really doesn't make sense at all. I personally believe in psychology. Although I must admit it's very amusing to see some people fret over their signs. [/COLOR] :rolleyes:

No it hasn't happened to me. But there really isn't any use fretting over one girl, there are others out there who will be far nicer than that one. Besides you can't plan your life around one person. But if it interests you, this is part of the reason I broke up with mine: ex-bf:weren't you afraid I'd cheat on you, since I go to Uni? me:not really...I mean I don't think you're really that kind of person. ex-bf: (said with great enthusiasm)but do you realize how many hot girls there are on campus? me:.......*rolls eyes* I'm never going to get over that stupid conversation. He was the result of a nice-guy who went to Uni and got a major confidence boost. Next time choose wisely, you now must have figured out what else you want in a girl (personality wise I should hope). Get a girl friend because you actually like the girl, not because you want one.
