[SIZE=1]Ramunei Soda, hmmmm I've never actually tried that soda before. It's Japanese? Maybe I'll try and get some later. Anyways, I know its not the best thing in the world but I'm a huge soda fan. I've tried lots, and have to come to one conclusion, Orange Soda is simply the best. Why? It's not like coke where you get that heavy aftertaste feeling, with orange soda, it doesn't make you feel full and you can drink 2-3 without feeling that yucky aftertaste in your mouth. It also tastes great, i don't like oranges, but i like orange soda. wierd isn't it? but its the best stuff ever. I love it. [/SIZE]

[QUOTE=Gravy Train]People pull weird crap like that all the time. Examples. 1. Couple sells the right to name their child's middle name for 10,000 reserve. I bid for 9,999.99. 2. People sell their souls. 3. Potato chips shaped like Mary and Jesus. etc. Quite amusing though, someone who would do that probably has no life in the first place. Then again, I'm not one to talk.[/QUOTE] [i]Haha I love number 3. That made me laugh so hard. Ack. Hey it might not be so bad running someones life hehe. [QUOTE]Every material possession I own! My computer My tv My guitars My furniture My clothes My rare coin collection My lp collection My photo equipment My photo albums My old love letters My pots and pans etc., etc. [/QUOTE] I so want his old love letters and coin collection too, woo hoo.

[QUOTE=X/19Kamui99]All right, I was wondering where?s the farthest place you have gone to visit, why you decided to go to that place, and what did you do? :therock: I myself have recently, two summers ago, visited Iceland. I was there to visit my family, which was awesome. While I was there, I went to the beautiful Island called Vestmannu Island. The town?s houses were painted with lots of colors: red, orange, blue, gray, white, yellow, green and purple. It greatly resembled a rainbow. The townspeople, at that time, were celebrating a volcano that had not erupted in over thirty years, so they had a big airplane stunt show. Puffins covered the cliffs of the Vestmannu Island, so it was a significant photo opportunity. :freak: However, the best part of my trip was going to all the breathtaking water sceneries. The beaches there have hundreds of shells of all sizes and color spread across the wet, dark sanded beach. I also went swimming in the Blue Lagoon, which people from all over the world come to swim in. Supposedly, the lagoon is known for its healing powers, but I have been in there tons of times, and I think it?s bogus. :smirk: :blah: Okay, okay, okay I also went to the one of biggest waterfalls in Iceland, Gulfoss. The water was clear with mist covering the bottom fall, and the most beautiful rainbow shinned over it all making it outstandingly perfect for taking pictures. There was the coolest cave underneath the waterfall that made it even cooler. :grumble: Anyways that was my farthest trip!!!!!!!!! :grumble:[/QUOTE] [FONT=Verdana][i] Fathest I've gone? I live in California and I've [b]never[/b] been out of the U.S before, so the farthest place I've ever visited would have to be New York. Manhattan too. Its a huge city and nice to look at. I'm going to mexico for the summer and I might go to Venice or Paris in Europe as well. I'm probably going to visit Hungary too so I'm looking forward to finally seeing anything other then the state (its just different you know?) so yeah. [/FONT][/i]

[QUOTE=Nefertimon]I've had experiences like that many times. Basically, sometimes when I meditate, my spirit transports to a different place, usually in outer space or some place on Earth that I have never visited before. And I feel like I'm actually there, and I forget all about the physical world I'm actually in... It's really neat, if you ask me. In another experience, my spirit didn't travel anywhere, but I did hear angels singing. I just listened to the songs, not putting any conscious thought into the whole process. The result? A musical miracle. (I actually remember taking one of those tunes and turning it into an actual song...) And, the last time I meditated, which was this Tuesday, I heard lots of people chanting, and I got a vision of this galaxy... then a planet where the civilians were all singing... I sang too, the same one they did, and danced around in the beautiful scenery that was on the planet... But it was magical, the best experience yet... I think they told me to come to their planet someday, even... And it was sad, because I saw my own spirit, like there were two separate spirits of mine, and she was singing too... OK, obviously this is all too elusive, and I'm beginning to relive that experience... *sighs happily*[/QUOTE] [size=1] Not that I'm an expert at [b] Astro Projecting [/b] or anything, infact I was terrifyed of the idea before, but I've heard a similar story. If you read books on it (just pretend you believe in it to get this) your suppose to see black and then white fuzzy dots, then its like you go into light, and you get a warm and fuzzy feeling. Its almost like another "world" but dealing with lights and color effects. There are different "layers" in this world supposedly, and I hear its dangerous if you go too far into the "world" if you don't know how to stop. It's suppose to make you feel great and tempting though, the further in you go, the more things start to feel like images. But then there is one where you can actually fly to a location and see friends/family members like Freude said talking. An old friend of mine claims he did this and saw his friend pick up the phone and call him, and was woken up by the ring. But then again I don't think I believe his story anyways. Anyways back to this "world" it mostly happens when you meditate, or when your in mid-sleep, basically your spirit is asleep but your body is awake. You breathe differently too, like when your sleeping you appear dead-like. If you want to see how cooky people are into this stuff check out these sites : (astro-projecting is when you are moving somewhere or going to the "outerspace" place) [url]http://home.att.net/~ag2kh/AstrProj.htm[/url] [url]http://www.mysticweb.org/pages/forums/pre03/archive/newbiemsg/221.html[/url] Lucid Dreaming (when you know you are dreaming) [url]http://www.lucidity.com/[/url] [url]http://www.lucidity.com/LucidDreamingFAQ2.html[/url] Freaky and a bit crazy? True. But then again I refuse to believe in the stuff. Still some interesting topics. [/size]

[size=1][b] OOC : I was suprised when I saw this! I love the Princess bride, thank you for this RPG. One Question Can I be Buttercup? lol j/k. I hope I can make up my own character in this as well. Hope that is okay. Fit me in whatever category if you must, Inigo rules. By the way the rest is coming soon. [/b] Name: Galendra Cadwell Age: 19 Gender: Female Role: Sea-Dogs (Pirate right) Weaponry: Carries two daggers on the side of her pockets. Special Skills: Fencing and Tracking Appearance: Personality: She has never been one to trust men, let alone people. She seems mean, but most that know her just realize she is strict and see her as a good pirate among the sea. She has loved the sea since she was a child, and has always been stubborn but good nature. She's not untrustworthy, and always keeps her word. Even if the consequence is death. She fights with honor and bravery, and is not scared of almost anything (spiders are her worst fear) and is skilled in most fighting techniques. Admired for her fighting, she has trouble making friends since she comes off as indimidating. Bio: Galendra grew up in the country with her father and her mother in a small village. Everyone in the village was close to one another, that is why when Inigo Montoya's father died, most people were in grief. She was a small child then, with not so much of a memory, but it was said left scars upon his face. One day Prince Humperdink (bad spelling) had arrived at their home and forced them to pay a tax or else they could not keep their home. Not having much money, they were forced out of their own house. They stayed in many homes, until word got out that anyone who was seen holding them in their stay would also be kicked from their homes. The village people had to hide them but it was no use. They were no longer welcome. Starving, they fled into the jungle to search for food. They were chased by wolfs, exhausted, her mother and father fell behind. She had tried to run back to save them but they had insisted her to keep on running. Her parents both died. And she was left homeless and all alone. By age 15, Galenda was working at a saloon, serving drinks where she came across a paper that read "New Opportunity in America". Interested, she decided she needed to start her life over. Scraping every penny she has, she traveled on a boat headed towards America. She was soon stopped by the Dread Pirate Robert's ship, and when they were about to slaughter her, she did not hesitate. "Why are you not scared girl?" They asked confused. She did not fear death she said because there was nothing left to lose. Amused by her bravery, he let her live for a week to prove her usefulness. Providing hard tasks and chores, Grendela proved herself to be as useful as the men on board. He soon promoted her to become a head pirate. Now her goal is to make enough money as she can, and to make use of her life, and maybe to find something that's been missing in her life all along. [/size]

[size=1] Awwh Chibi you wouldn't want Vash? but he's so lovable. I'd give him doughnuts all the time hehe. Anyways.. [b]1. Edward from Cowboy Bebop - [/b] She's cute. She's lovable. But to live with? Ahhh the headaches! Migranes! *clickclick* goes the laptop, does she ever really sleep? and who wants a roomate who acts like a dog? bow wow. [b]2. Tina from Ai Yori Aoshi - [/b] She's bubbly and friendly but honest I can't seem to think how her roomates can stand being around here sometimes. Living with her would be impossible for me cause we're both similar. It just would never work out. [b]3. Kagome from Inu Yasha - [/b] Can you say annoying? having her interfere with my love life, (and most likely listening in on phone conversations *coughs*) not to mention being stubborn when I happen to be an agressive person myself sometimes. She almost annoys me as much as Chibiusa, atleast Chibiusa can defend herself. I can just hear her now "Help save me!The Dishwasher is attacking me! AHHH Protect me!" [b]4. Yukino from Kare Kano - [/b] Two words. Pure Evil. She will have me kicked out, and murdered by the mafia before she even moves in. That is all I have to say. [b]5. Milly from Trigun - [/b] She would easily get on my nerves, would love the girl, but seriously she'd probably break all my furniture. [/size]

[size=1] Hmmm acouple favorites? well definately "Breaking The Habit" by Linkin Park, its very cool that they put anime-style animation into their music videos. Really is different from the most standard videos that you get. Another one that sticks to my mind really is that song "You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals so lets do it like they do on the discovery channel" by the bloodhound gang. Come on you know you loved that song ^.~ lol I liked the video where they were dressed as monkeys. dancing monkeys. you gotta love it. Also another video that sticks to mind is "The real slim shady" by Eminem. Yes seeing a bunch of blonde headed white boys walking around in jeans and a white t-shirt amuses me. What of it? It does infact stick in your head. [/SIZE]

[QUOTE=Japan_86][COLOR=Navy]I was dying just after I was born, but the doctors helped me live. I saved my best friend's life. We were playing house. I put her in this toddler stroller, and zipped her in. (It was those child proof ones where you couldn't unzip from the inside. Well, we were going down this steep driveway. I was tipping the front up so the stroller was doing wheelies. I wasn't strong enough, so I had my hands underneath the handle bar. Anyways, we where going down this steep driveway. Clumsy as I was at that age, I tripped and fell forward. My knuckles of my hands where trapped underneath the handle bar, and my knuckles where grinding against the cement and the pressure of the stroller pulling me down the driveway. I managed to finally get my hands out of the stroller as soon as we reached the street. I ran towards my house, skin totally taken away on all of my knuckles, and my knees and arms badly scabbed, scratched, and bruised when I heard a huge horn blow. Turns out it was from a big truck. My best friend was trapped in the stroller in the middle of the street. I stopped screaming, still full of tears, ran out there, and saved her before she got ran over. [/COLOR][/QUOTE] [i] Yowch. That sounds awful, glad your friend was okay. Seems like many people here have had problems with drowning. I have to admit I have as well. My parents took me to the Disneyland Hotel when I was 4 years old, and they decided to try and get me to swim in the pool since I was starting swimming lessons and I loved to be in the water. Anyways my dad told me to hold onto the edge of the pool and wait there while he swam to the other side (although i didn't see him) to talk to my mom. Being the stubborn and foolish kid I was I thought I could swim too after seeing my dad and pushed off the edge into the deep end, only to find myself sinking to the bottom. For some reason I wasn't scared, and I actually remember it clearly. All I heard was my mom yelling my dad's name, and my dad swimming over to me. I also was looking for fish (I thought there was fish in a pool...why? I have no idea) and when i saw my dad I tried to reach him, and actually swam to where he was. That was the first time I learned how to swim. But if he hadn't seen me gone I probably would have drowned. [/i]

[QUOTE=Boba Fett][color=green]CA has some of the US's highest gas prices because of it's strict environmental regulations, which would be even stricter in LA if the city weren't given a special exception from the EPA mandates on clean air. Gas prices are influenced by OPEC, supply and demand, government taxes and most importantly, what people are willing to pay. Frankly, I think the last of these is the most important. When people stop sucking the added cost up and drive only when they must, those who produce, supply and govern will take notice.[/color][/QUOTE] Welcome to California. The money-hungry state.

[QUOTE=Cole-Fu]Weird Meditation Experience Just wanted to share this and see if anyone has any similar experiences: I was meditating last night before I went to sleep. Just laying in my bed relaxing my whole body. Next thing I know i'm in a dream. I knew that i was dreaming too. It was the weirdest feeling; i was awake and dreaming at the same time. I was seeing stuff in my dream, but I'd occasionally come out of it and see my room and my body at the same time my dream was taking place (don't know how to explain). Never had that happen before. I haven't meditated in forever but it was a totally awesome experience. The dream was so real...[/QUOTE] [SIZE=1] I'm not much into Paranormal things, but to many this is called [b] Astro Projecting [/b]. Astro projecting is supposedly when your soul comes out of your body and usually have a 'dream' or in a 'dream-like' state where your floating above your body. Another way is where you can fly supposedly to someone's house and see what they are actually doing. It supposedly happened to a friend of mine (yeah i know unbelievable right?) but this is suppose to be a spiritual way to communicate with what else, spirits. I was told a story once that its dangerous cause someone can take over your body, but I never truely believe in many spiritual things. Just thought you might find that interesting. As for the feeling of calmness, that can happen to anyone. I get that when I'm resting my eyes or spacing out. [/size]

[QUOTE=Lord Rannos]I really think that these tests can't tell you anything much. All it is is testing your hand reflexes. You would learn more about biases from the information it presents you at the beginning. The problem with these tests, at least for me, is that I realte the buttons to the answers, without thinking about what's even on the screen. That may sound like the idea behind the test, but my mind doesn't classify good and young to be the same if their on the same button. Also, they switch it around in the middle, which would naturally set you outside of a "groove" of the buttons you were pressing. The best way to study biases and prejudices isn't to flash images in front of them and have them press buttons, it's to see how they react when actually placed in a stiuation with old people or black people. If they treat them differently, they're biased. If someone walks into a room with a white guy and a black guy he doesn't know, look at who he talks to. It's that sort of "real-life" test that would produce the most accurate information, but that's just my opinion.[/QUOTE] [i] I agree with this as well. Although I have to say that no buttons or images could prove how someone feels different towards another race. You don't know how many people are just purposely clicking the wrong ones. Everything could be innacurate. As far as us all go, we act different around people because of our backgrounds, not by images. You might act different towards someone who's black then to a Homosexual. It's sad but its human nature. Still there is a way to get passed that and no test will be accurate while proving this. [/i]

[SIZE=1] As much as I hate reality shows, I would be on the one that I hate most which doesnt cause me to do any stunts but just to make a fool of myself for money really. The Real World. *gag* but if you think about it, all I have to do is walk around and make a big deal about everything my roomates do. I make money for being on the show and for the job they make you have. Only thing I would hate would be paranoid from all the cameras around me, they even have one in the bathroom! I don't want to feel scared that someones watching me in such a moment. Its creepy. But hey, shows what people will do for some cash $$. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1] [B] OOC : Just wanna say I wanted to be a demon (not angel) so this works out perfectly ;) I added in Personality because I didn't want to reveal to much with a bio.

She has an olive skin color and dark green eyes. She has a tattoo on her right arm, and is often wearing a red or black matching outfit. She has a very rough look about her. [B]Magic:[/B] Crimson Shock - Although it sounds harmless, this can leave a victim stunned for a long period of time (good for escaping) or even leave a person paralyzed if hit badly enough. Stealth Mode - A gift from being a demon, she is able to blend into the shadows making her appear out of sight from others and angels views. [B]Weapons:[/B] She believes in the use of melee combat more then anyone, and can be described as a somewhat rogue type of character. [B]Demon Appearence:[/B] She has small fangs and claws, and often grows a tail. She is described as a panther demon for her stealthlike motions. She is often seen in a red leather suit and a partly-see-through lace that goes across half of her face only revealing her eyes. [B] Personality : [/B] She is known as the tough girl at school, but is never one to start a fight. Most of her friends do not go to highschool, and she tends to get bad grades. Dispising school, shes not very social and tends to stick to herself since most people seem to be intimidated by her. Nevertheless most people seem to think she is 'cool' or 'sophisticated' despite never taking a word with her. Especially since she smokes and rides a bike of her own. (but atleast she's trying to quit!) Her attitude is very simple, Angels are the enemy. Despite being a demon, she has a very calm attitude about her, and is really not as mean-spirited as people think. She can be sensitive, but has a hard time expressing her emotions. When she is upset or hurt she gets angry, and has a tendency to yell when annoyed. Secretly she wishes she were a normal girl, but tends to hide that to herself. [/SIZE]

[QUOTE=AzureWolf][FONT=book antiqua][SIZE=2][COLOR=blue]I don't think all of it has to do with different cultures or regions. I mean, I'm always surprised at the stuff kids know at increasingly younger ages these days. It'd be a different story if they just heard a word or two, but they actually KNOW about sex and what-not. It's kind of creepy when little elementary students say they want to get laid soon... Anyway, I'm all for awareness, but c'mon, it's too soon. I don't care if you live in Japan, Africa, or Juno: there are just some things that kids, regardless of mental state due to different cultures or times, should not know at young ages.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE=1] Little kids say they want to get laid soon? :eek: I've never heard that one before. eek. I guess I really need to catch up to the times. But anyways, the "Bunny-logo" is just a fashion icon now, some little kids don't even know what it's for and just see it as a bunny logo from a magazine they know of. Plus playboy really isn't that bad, yes it shows nude pictures, but its alot better then, how you say some others like Penthouse? It's not exactly a porn magazine since there are articles in there too. Playboy is popular now. Everyone is wearing it. Even a guy in my class wears the symbol on his hat, and alot of little girls on their shirts. I don't think wearing one is a big deal since I doubt that means they like porn. Not trying to sound mean but I think there's nothing to worry about. I highly doubt shes ever even SEEN a playboy magazine.

Shes short around 5"4 and often people mistaken her for a middleschooler despite her being older then most. At school she wears her uniform which is always neat and tidy, and is often seen wearing girly dresses. In reality, she dislikes dresses, and loves to lay around the house in sweat pants, and wears jeans and tanks. [B]Personality:[/B] She plays off the innocent role well enough, acts like a good student infact the top in her class, is popular with others and looks as though she would be suited for a rolemodel. What most people don't know is when she goes home she is naturally very selfish, possesive, stubborn, abnoxious, and most of all hot-headed. She's also very hyper unlike her mellow attitude when she's at school, few people know her secret. (Kind of like Yukino from KareKano) Her Hobbies at school would have to be fencing and the writing club. While at home its videogames and wrestling. She has a mother who calls her "Little Taka" (meaning little treasure) whom is a bit crazy and is embarrased by. The nickname "Taka" has been carried on with her although. She's afraid of people finding out her true personality, and often gets lost about who she is. She's never really had a true friend, one that has accepted her for who she as, because of the way kids picked on her in middleschool she has begun to hide her real personality. Keeping up the sharade for attention, she can be someone's worst enemy or rival. [B]Soul Brother/Sister:[/B] It doesn't matter...choose for me if you must..

[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]The 90's are gone, and the new Millenium has been here for awhile now. So why not take a look at the past? (*note* This is not because of the VH1 special "I love the 90's" although I did see that and it is funny) What are your favorite moments or things of the 90's? To keep this from a "What is your favorite color" type of thread, please tell why it is and how it affected you. Did you own a furbie and end up breaking its head apart? Maybe you were one of those kids on halloween wearing a scream mask saying "WAZZUP!"? For all I know you could list Bill Clinton conspiracy, what in the 90's was special to you is what matters. Yes you can tell personal life experiences if you want too, but I'd prefer things that we're big in the 90's. Also what in your life is different now from back then? Are you satisfied with those changes? Do you ever long to go back? Do you dress differently? Do you act differently? Use other phrases? *EDIT* I'm not sure if this kind of topic was already posted, if so let me know but I've looked back on numerous threads and could not find anything similar. [/FONT][/SIZE]

[quote name='anatema][SIZE=1']I don't want some amazing career or a truck load of money, well actually yes I do, but it's not a real goal in life to have a truck load of money. I honestly don't think there's anything I have to tell the world, I have no legacy to leave behind. My fear in getting older is that as time passes you kinda start moving farther and farther away from life and dreams become regrets. I'm afraid that I'll never be able to say "I did what I wanted with my life." Upto this point, I've only done what I had to do. I've chickened out at the last minute of something I wanted with the entirety of my being because it was way too risky. I wouldn't mind working as a store clerk, if it was what I wanted to do. But I want to be a writer and God, can I get any closer to starving artist. That is starving artist, heh. But how many people get to say that they did what they wanted to do with their lives? I don't want to not be able to say that.[/size][/quote] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][i]I know exactly how you feel. I'm 17, and its actually not whats cracked up to be. I've been counting the days until I'm 18, hey more freedom right? wrong it also means I'm going to have to figure out what I want to do with my life. It's scary, and sometimes I'd like not to think about it and want to be younger. It's childish I know, but I do feel like a fish-out-of-water already, and I've only had a few simple jobs. I'm scared of failer, maybe because my parents expect that of me, and I have so many people I need to prove to that I can actually do something. So theres alot of pressure on that part. There is college, and having to figure out what I'm going to take and such. This year has been pretty stressful, and even though people say turning 18 is wonderful, I'm actually beginning to dread it. I'll finally be considered an adult, which is not too far away. I can't wait to move out, thats the only thing that I'm really looking forward too. The best thing I can say is, always try for things your interested in, so that you dont regret it. I know I quit dancing, and I've regretted it ever since. Instead of saying "Oh I could have done that..." I've learned its never too late to start again. I've seen 50 year olds go back to college, anything is possible. So next year I'm signing up for a Hip Hop Dance Class and getting back to my passion of dance...even if It has been years since I last stepped into one.[/i][/SIZE][/FONT]

[i]Thats a very interesting dream Elfpirate. Funny too since your name has elf in it, hehe. I have never had a religious/spiritual type of dream. They have always been bizzare and a bit crazy? Need examples? Okay but I warned you. I had one where I was riding a big moose. Yes a moose, it was large with huge antlers, and I was also riding with a girl that hates me from school. Why? I have no idea. It only gets stranger from here. We're galloping through the snow in a meadow where there are few trees as squirrels are running to attack us, and we begin to hit them with crocquett mallets. They squeak, fly and skid across the snow, bounce up and attack us again and as we do this we're laughing. Can it get any stranger then that? Its funny but still it isn't nice, even if they are rabid pyscho squirrels lol. There is another one where I go outside because my mom tells me to get a package from the garage. I open it, and a whole bunch of water falls from the garage. I'm stuck underwater until a hand pulls me up into a boat, and its pitch black. A guy tells me to canoe my way to the other side of the garage. Confused, I start to padle in the boat, especially while noticing aligators are chasing me. I stop to find myself in a large open area filled with dancing monkeys, and I'm getting hit with bananas and fruit. I think this is from watching too much of the movie Jungle Book when I was little, since I had it when I was small. Still its odd everytime I think of it. There was one I had when I was 12 that is a little more normal. I was walking to school when I opened the door to my homeroom only to discover everyone was blue. Their face, handes, everything. I kept asking them why they were so blue and they kept saying "What? I feel fine. Are you okay?" and finally came across a mirror to discover I was blue too. It really freaked me out for some reason. I've never looked at the color blue the same way again. As for the Lucky Charms Lepracaun, that sounds amusing, I would so love to hear that story. I use to have dreams about the Tiger from Frosted Flakes, he always looked the most friendlist. Say no to Honey Nut Cheerios. [/i]

[QUOTE=elfpirate]In your opinion, are humans inherently good or evil and why? I'll give you my opinion... but first, I want to see some of your thoughts on the subject. :angel: / :devil:[/QUOTE] [SIZE=1] This post seems a bit short and blank. Maybe you should try and make it look a bit...fuller? But anyways. Good Question I suppose. I think its up to the person to be good or evil, and based on your deeds. Or so it says in the Bible from what I know of. We all start off as good when we're born, but as we make our decisions in life I believe that can change. I'm not quite sure what else you mean, so thats the best anwser I can give you. My name might be Pumpkin but I happen to be evil muhaha. Or am I? Hmmm guess we will never know. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1] Has anyone ever seen Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien? I don't think you should if you hate depressing soap operas like this one. To me this anime made me cry alot, because it is just so depressing and there are NO good points. At all I'm serious. First [SPOILER] Haruka gets hit by a car and put into acoma for three years, not to mention he goes out with her best friend, and when she wakes up everyone blames her for the pain they went through. It must be so hard to have your world shattered like that. Her dreams fallen apart, and her lover with her best friend. [/SPOILER] How more depressing can you get then that? It made me feel awful, which makes it one of my most disliked anime. There is also a scene in Marmalade Boy where [SPOILER] Miki decides to break up with Yuu Matsuura in the Airport. It is so sad, especially when she hands him his voice recorder back that he gave her as a gift [/SPOILER] Sounds sappy I know but it just seemed so sad. That and Hana Yori Dango made me cry a few times. In a good way. [/SIZE]
