Aaryanna

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]My day was pretty normal. I hung out with family and friends and enjoyed lunch and dinner which consisted of yummy stuff my mom and I made. Then later I watched the big fireworks while Aaryanna decided to growl at all the noise people setting off fireworks were making.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Lafiel is definitely better dressed than all those silly bunny outfits. :p [IMG]http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/9058/lafieljv8.png[/IMG][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Looks like we need something that is [I]actually[/I] funny. :p [URL="http://nasakii.deviantart.com/art/Misguided-70296611"][U]Click me![/U][/URL] [/FONT][/COLOR]

Katelyn explained. ?[B]I?m not sure we?ll need it though.[/B]? She nodded in Zahir?s direction as he was already starting to come around. ?[B]Are you alright young man?[/B]? Gael asked even as she helped him sit up. ?[B]What happened?[/B]? Zahir looked confused. ?[B]You fainted.[/B]? Gael explained. ?[B]Uh?[/B]? ?[B]We still need to figure out how we?re going to get out of here.[/B]? Viktor looked thoughtful, paying no attention to how Zahir looked embarrassed over fainting. ?[B]I?m not sure what happened but it would be best to assume we are on our own and act accordingly.[/B]? ?[B]What do you suggest?[/B]? Arthur looked skeptical to Katelyn, though she could just be imagining it. The tone in his voice only reminded her of her own uneasiness at being left behind. ?[B]They were trying to get into the communication tower so it?s possible that they got it fixed.[/B]? He shrugged. ?[B]We won?t know until we go and take a look.[/B]? ?[B]I suppose you?re right,[/B]? Natalia interjected, accidentally cutting off Arthur who was starting to reply. ?[B]I?m still going to complain to the Captain about this.[/B]? She looked over at Zahir who was finally standing up. ?[B]Are you feeling up for a walk?[/B]? ?[B]Yeah,[/B]? he flushed, still embarrassed. ?[B]I?m fine, sorry about that.[/B]? ?[B]There?s no need for that. Honestly, I think all of us feel the same way. I have no desire to be stuck on this outpost.[/B]? Natalia shook her head. ?[B]It doesn?t make sense though, our passenger ID?s should have told the shuttle system that we weren?t onboard so why did they leave us behind?[/B]? ?[B]Passenger ID?s?[/B]? Katelyn grimaced. ?[B]If that?s the case? I forgot mine. It?s back on the Von Braun. So no one would have noticed that I wasn?t there unless they were actually looking.[/B]? ?[B]Wait, how can you get around the ship without it? Don?t you need those in order to use the lifts?[/B]? Zahir asked her. ?[B]Well yes and no, so long as you?re not trying to go into another level like first class, the system assumes you have the clearance to be there. The only thing different was that the holographic guide in the lift didn?t use my name, it just called me miss.[/B]? Katelyn answered. ?[B]I did have to get help from the staff to get back into my room though, since I?ve done that twice since I came on board.[/B]? ?[B]So it?s possible that other passengers forgot their cards as well and when the numbers were off, they could have assumed that no one was really missing.[/B]? Arthur signed. ?[B]Great, though that doesn?t change the fact that we are still stuck here.[/B]? ?[B]Then it?s time we did something about it.[/B]? Natalia said firmly as she headed towards where the communications tower would be. Katelyn felt like laughing a bit as the group followed Natalia, not that she found the situation funny, but rather because out of all people, when things went wrong, somehow she was always involved. Just like when her parents had died. Sometimes it felt like she was always being left behind.

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"][quote name='Darren'][SIZE="1"]For the hundreds of thousands of families out there who don't have much to live on and work several jobs just to support their family and keep a roof over their heads: Yes, life is horrible.[/SIZE][/QUOTE]Don't let this scare you either by the way. As one of those families (my mom is on disability) that doesn't necessarily make life horrible either. Sure I can't afford things like the new ps3 or a better computer and we often rely on charity to help make ends meet, but still I'm not unhappy at all. Plus for some that means you qualify for aid for college that not only do you not have to pay it back, but it pretty much covers all your expenses. (I'm not in college yet by the way, I just checked into it for when I do go) Anyway... The point is, much like Rach already stated, if you put everything you can into things, you'll get the most out of it. You'll have bad or unpleasant things that you can't control, but by finding all the positive things you'll find that life isn't as scary as people make it out to be. I do miss friends that move on when we lose contact, but at the same time I love all the new friends I've made since then. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"][quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]I am listening to anything I can get my hands on right now that [I][B]isn' Country[/B][/I]. I am deluged?inundated, even?with that stuff at work every day for six hours, and on top of that it's the same twenty-odd dad-blasted songs.[/FONT][/QUOTE]You poor thing. o_O I think I'd go nuts listening to that stuff that often.[I] Seriously[/I]. Anyway, my selection isn't all that original, I'm kind of in the mood for the silly song that goes along with the girls at the top of the pink theme.. Caramelldansen! >_> Pink just rules, no question about it. :catgirl:[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]For starters, if you watch DNAngel, start with the anime first. A lot was left out so that way when you go to the manga it will be fun instead of going from the manga to the anime and going... I can't believe they left that part out! Also, the manga is not finished. The author took a long break and has only just started writing for it again. Anyway, a fun if not insane show is Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. It's basically where a super depressed teacher meets his exact opposite, an ultra happy girl. It makes for all sorts of odd and zany situations. Plus these guys forgot a great slice of life comedy that if you liked Lucky Star you'd enjoy. And that would be Fruits Basket. It's about a family where some of the members are cursed by the zodiac and change into the animal they represent when stressed or hugged by a member of the opposite sex. It's wonderfully funny. :catgirl:[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]So it's actually official. Sweet. ^_^ I never did finish the ps1 version. Mainly because I got busy with other stuff, not because the game wasn't fun. So I guess I have no excuse now. I should get around to finishing it so I'll be ready for the DS release. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Speaking of pwning, he'll not only never miss, but he'll also shot right through the bullets meant for him. You're dead. =P [CENTER] [IMG]http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/5053/blackcatsmnt3.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"][quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Steering away from the feel-good relativism of [COLOR="DarkRed"]Sabrina[/COLOR]'s post, I'd just like to point out that I find this kind of binary hypothetical choice-making stuff a complete, total, and utter waste of time. Beauty [I]and[/I] intelligence are both continuous traits, and beauty is also half-subjective, so what's the frilling point? I choose Clue. (^_^)[/FONT][/QUOTE]Of course it's pointless, but then many conversations along this line are. =P But going on what the thread creator said. I'd pick being smart. My dog can be the beautiful/cute one. Also, clue sounds good to me! :catgirl:[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"][quote name='Rachmaninoff'] I really like a number of these pieces by Bach that are either for two or three harpsichord's.[/QUOTE]Ha! How about ones written for four? I followed some of the links and this is an interesting piece, so I'm listening to it.[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sdaVX-K5j8"][U] Bach - Concerto for 4 Harpsichords in A minor[/U][/URL] Look at what you got me listening to Rach! o_O It is kind of pretty though. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]I should just about copy and paste what both you and SunfallE said Rach. My opinion about the OVA is the same. Fun but had me wishing for more, especially in regards to Lafiel and Jinto. I'm kind of sorry that they are done with the series, at least I'm assuming that means they are done. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]*falls out of her chair laughing and nearly passes out* XD Oh my hell! I can't recall the last time I laughed so much! Hehehehe! That was just beautiful Des. :catgirl: I always knew that someday you'd get clobbered Gavin! :D[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Word of advice, simply listing shows without bothering to explain them all is considered spam. I'm going to leave this open for now, but if people don't put more effort into their responses... It will get closed. Plain lists of shows is boring. It's not that hard to explain a little about each show. Thanks. [B]EDIT: [/B]And thank you for the edit darkmousy93 and the save Phenom. You don't have to give full indepth paragraphs, but at least a sentence or two is a good idea. ^_^[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Welcome to [SIZE="1"]hell[/SIZE].... >_> I'm sorry... I mean welcome to[B] OtakuBoards[/B]. We really are friendly here so sit back, check out the various areas of the boards and have fun! :catgirl:[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]You'd think by now that people would know that it's [I]always[/I] Gavin's fault. That and it's just fun to poke him for the hell of it. :D Now as for removing bandanas helping reduce gang crime... lolwut?!? If only life were that simple, banning something to get rid of an undesirable element of society. It doesn't work, at least not for something like a clothing item. Remove butter to get rid of obesity! Remove this to get rid of that! >_> Uh... no. Doesn't replace parenting and teaching kids to be smart enough to NOT join a gang or to be sensible with their diets to avoid obesity. People need to understand why something is bad instead of removing stuff and hoping they'll somehow smarten up and quit joining gangs in the first place. We need to educate kids instead of using ignorant attempts to remove the visual signs of one being a gang. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]I don't really drink tea. I don't even remember what kinds I've tried, I only know that I didn't like any of them. I don't think it smells bad though. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Knowing the secret won't help him though. =P Just as knowing hers won't. [CENTER][IMG]http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/7505/yurikasinceimsocutelf7cmq4.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] You've learned that she is cute! Congrats! :p[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Someone needs to post again with the rest of the case surrounding 2008DigitalBoy's fortunate demise... Yes I said [I]fortunate[/I]. I think we all know that Allamorph was the mastermind behind that, or was he? Time to find out in my opinion so start posting! [I]*whacks Aceburner*[/I][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]The White Pretear has the power to control life. So... death holds no sway. [CENTER][IMG]http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/9307/lifetv7.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]With all the fuss I decided to check this out. o_O The imagery is really odd. It almost makes you feel dizzy to watch. It does have a rather odd aesthetic feel that is soothing though. It almost makes you feel like you're watching art that has come to life, a painting if you will. Anyway, I can see based on the [spoiler]execution scene[/spoiler] that this anime is going to be very interesting from a psychological point of view. Seriously. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]After reading the thread Gankutsuou and hearing Indi talk about it at her theO page... I decided to start watching it. I also got my hands on the OVA Banner of the Stars III after reading about that in the Crest of the Stars thread. I'm not actually reading anything, well not anime related that is. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"][QUOTE][FONT=Arial]Apparently I bring out the inner sadist in the younger generation.
