Queen Asuka

[color=hotpink][size=1]I guess the most idiotic thing that I can think of right now off the top of my head is when my roommates tell me that Ryan treats me like crap and that he is SO horrible for me and that I'm just blinded by love and ONE DAY I'll see the mistake I've been making. For the past three years. And this is coming from the people who can barely hang onto the relationships they are in. I'm sorry, but my boyfriend has never even called me a name. EVER. No matter how mad he's gotten at me in any circumstance. That's more than I can say for some people. And I've noticed a great change in him lately that makes my heart melt for him more than it did when we first met and I knew that I wanted to be with him. (I guess that's what James said, huh?) So much for being blinded by love. I may be DEEPLY in love, but I assure you, it doens't blind me in the least.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]LOL, I was wondering why I was all of sudden 38 instead of 42. Awesome James. I can't wait for the backroomness. It will be good.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Yeah, I always wondered how people could have 8000+ visits when I only have 4000+ visits and I'm at 38 or something like that. Word. Back in the day I used to be number 4. Oh well.[/color][/size]

[quote name='Xander Harris']I want Santa to give me his job.[/quote] [color=hotpink][size=1]Have a baby. It's all yours. My boyfriend and I were actually joking about that the other day for some odd reason... What do I want for Christmas? Well, it's something that I'm keeping to myself, but I doubt that I'll get it. For one thing, it's SOOO expensive. But maybe I'll be surprised. (Yeah, right. I'm trying not to get my hopes up...) My mother is getting me the OC box set of DVDs, which is pretty hard to find, so I hope she gets it soon. I will CRY without the OC. My dad is building my '72 VW Beetle and stuff, even though it probably wont be ready to go anywhere near Christmas. As for other gifts, I'm just happy with money or something small and thoughtful. I never can think of anything that I want for Christmas when someone ASKS me...although Barbies are ALWAYS a good gift. ^_^ The BEST gifts are always the ones least expected. For example, the year before last, my sisters and I BEGGED and BEGGED for a PS2. It was all we wanted. But my parents kept telling us that they couldn't afford it. Finally we had given up. The night before Christmas I was SO PISSED. I had written Ryan a letter telling him how upset I was that we weren't getting one. THEN, the next day we woke up and THERE IT WAS! I don't know how my parents managed, but they did. We didn't have any games for it, lol, but we had some DVDs to watch. My favorite gift is still the trampoline. Damn the kids that ripped our trampoline. That's going to be the first thing I buy my kids when they are born, lol. *sees image of baby sitting on trampoline* ^_^[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I added a background to the picture (don't know how I managed to figure that out....) and I feel it looks a TON better. What do you think?[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Well, here's my finished version and I'm not 100 percent happy with it, but it was my first TRUE experimentation with photoshop and layers and so forth....so yeah. I decided not to use color pencils and to do something a little different. Please be nice when giving me comments. BRUTALLY honest, though. ^_^; PS. The jpeg version definately doesn't look as good as the tiff version, but whatever. At least you get to see some sort of it, lol.[/color][/size] [URL=http://img22.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img22&image=queenasukacolor.jpg][IMG]http://img22.exs.cx/img22/3539/queenasukacolor.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I didn't mean it as an insult to you, jblessing. I just thought that NO ONE had read or acknowledged the problem and that it hadn't been fixed at all. Sorry if you were offended, sometimes I'm a little hasty. But it HAD been a while, so I DEFINATELY felt ignored.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]After finding a website to download the Zelda cartoons, I found this wallpaper. SO, here's a picture. ^_^ What do you think?[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Since I was IGNORED in the so-called "OFFICIAL" thread, maybe someone will pay some attention HERE: "Okay, this has been bothering me A LOT lately, but when I'm in the backroom of my area, it says that I have one new Private Message, but when I check my mail, it isn't there. And I've checked all the folders and everything, but it's JUST NOT THERE! Is there anything you can do to make it go away?" Thanks for listening.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I don't know why I was in the drawing mood tonight, but alas, my latest creation. It's supposed to be the Queen of Plushies herself with little Mini-Ken in her arms to protect her. This is just the original drawing, I'm planning on doing ink and pencils in the near future. So what do you think? [URL=http://img74.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img74&image=queenasuka.jpg][IMG]http://img74.exs.cx/img74/2289/queenasuka.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL][/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I've only had my computer for a little while, but for the LONGEST time I had an Uma Thurman Kill Bill 2 background. Right now, I'm sporting the sexy Ruri Hoshino. This background is way more light and pretty, althought I'm more of a pink person than a purple person, lol.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]My religion means a lot ot me because I believe that it shapes who I am and how I behave. I think that I grew a lot more mature when I felt like I had a purpose and that I wasn't just an existance...a being that EVOLVED and was just going to die and that be that. But yeah, anywho. I'm a Latter Day Saint, aka Mormon. (Or Sara's Moron's, lol.) I joined the Church a little over two and a half years ago. I believe that it was one of the best decisions of my life. I've felt such wonderful peace since becoming a member. I'm sure that I have more to say, but since I'm sleepy, I'll have to put more later. But yeah, go MORMONS! I remember a time when there used to be quite a few of us around here on the OB.[/color][/size]

[quote name='chobit']I don't get the name of this thread.[/quote] [color=hotpink][size=1]I was referring to how in America that beauty is only in how skinny you are. That if you don't have a flat stomach, you are FAT. How the media and the movies portray beauty in this disgusting image that makes people like ME think I'm overweight even though I'm NOT. THAT's what it refers to. If you'd thought about it for just a moment, you would have understood.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I'm sure we've had this thread already, but I just felt the need to VENT and so I was hoping I could get some mature feedback from some of you guys. I HATE that almost all females think they are fat, especially the ones who AREN'T. For example, if you've seen a picture of me, you know that I'm pretty shapely, but I'm not a bean pole. But I'm not FAT either. Sure, my stomach isn't flat, but that doesn't make me overweight. But because I'm always exposed to what everyone percieves as "beautiful," I have a hard time convincing myself that I AM NOT FAT. For example, I think guys have a lot to do with this as well. It always seems to me that men are SO attracted to those girls with flat tummies. Well EXCUSE me for not starving myself or being on the latest DIET. For one thing, I don't believe in diets. I just always think about my old roomie Kristi and how skinny she was and how she was ALWAYS getting attention because of it. IT JUST DOESN'T LOOK HEALTHY! And then the MEDIA! I mean, GEEZ, look at all the girls you see in magazines or on TV or in movies. I bet they all have 15" waists. Well, honey, that's not they way it's supposed to be. I remember way back when, the bigger you were the more attractive you were because it meant that you had money. What makes me think of this is when I read Juuthena's myO. Everytime she posts a new picture she's all like, "Gah, I'm so fat, blah blah blah." And I look at that picture and think, "Well, if that's fat, then I'm an ELEPHANT." So what are your thoughts on this?[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Well, I'm with Dagger because I think this is absolutely ridiculous. It sounds to me that you are in middle/high school and you're having a hard time being in a mature relationship. You think you're hot and so girls crush on you. And therefore you change from girlfriend to girlfriend week to week, not knowing how to be serious about someone. It's one thing to flirt, it's another thing to date someone seriously. And if you just keep stringing these girls along, feelings are going to get hurt and then hopefully some girls will get the picture that you're not hot because you're a jerk. I really hope that you grow up a bit and realize that relationships are about more than "you-know-what."[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]You CAN get a Mexican blanket in Epcot Mexico. I have the most SEXY Chinese dress that I got two years ago at Epcot China. The prices are pretty spendy, though; my dress was $85. So yeah, good luck. ^_^[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I am so disappointed that Pink Floyd is not on the list. I seriously think that they would have to be my favorite, with Led Zeppelin following close after. I never really got in the classic rock scene, but I grew up listening to it and it just so happens that early 90s rock is what I got into and what makes me all gushy and sentimental. But Pink Floyd...I have a lot of memories of my dad being silly, of my mom (her maiden name is Floyd) and all of her silly stories from middle school when she used to convince people t hat they were related. Anywho, I'm also a HUGE HUGE HUGE fan of Tom Petty. Gah, his music is so awesome. Carry on, lol.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]My three year OB anniversary is this Thursday, actually. 11-11-01. That's such a cool freaking number! I wonder if when I'm gone people will be like, "Oh Queen Asuka! She was such a beautiful young lady! Full of love and serenity, ruling us with her magical sparkly plushie wand!" Yeah, okay. Anyway, if I was to be remembered, I would want everyone to remember what I was a part of. For one thing, PiroMunkie and I have been married almost three years now (two more months!) and we have five younglings which DO NOT consist of members of the OB. They are truly our own beautiful creations and both of us have pictures of them. :D We weren't the FIRST OB couple to be married, but we were the second and we're the longest, too. Thanks to us, there are SO MANY married couples on the OB. One guy that joined a while ago (The One) thought that we were seriously married and we became the object of his obsession and he would always make banners and stuff for us. Weird, lol. We've won Best Couple in all of the Otaku Awards and I'm very happy with our success. When I joined the OB, I BELIEVE he was moderating the DragonBall forum. Eventually I modded Anime Lounge. It was such a cute combination. Now, as most of you know, the two of us have happily retired from our moderating duties, and like Piro said, we're going to watch the kids grow up and head off to college. Happy days. Anyway, I also want to be remembered as the Queen of Plushies, which I AM. It's a role that I carried over from a LONG time ago back when I was obsessed with Yahoo Chat. There was once a King, but now Piro has happily taken over that role here at OB. Kenneth is my DARLING Knight in Shining Armor (rumors had it that we once had an affair >.>) and Neilness is my FEROCIOUS Executioner. There are also many other roles, such as the Royal Cynic (Sara) and the Jester (Mitch, right?), but do those people remember their place?! Anywho, so forever and ever in OB history when people refer to Mini-[Insert Name Here], it's not because of Austin Powers. It's because of THE POWER OF THE PLUSHIES!!!! *crowd cheers "Long Live Queen Asuka!"* Ah, thank you, thank you. *bows gracefully* Anywho, I also want to be remember as being a part of Adam's Angels: One of the Elite, which also started a HUGE trend and so forth. It was me, Jenna (BabyGirl), and Deborah (Lady Macaoidh), and I'd like to believe that we are still the beautiful angels we were back then. I keep in touch with both of them and so I am happy to update our website. Yeah, I'm rambling, but I would LIKE to think that I'm considered an old member, relatively. I wish we had a time line that coincided with the different versions of the OB and the members that were present when and what happened when and so forth. Sounds like an endevour for...SARA! *bows out*[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Well, I'm getting ready to register for my classes for Spring semester and I was just curious as to which PE I should take: Aerobic Dance or Body Conditioning. I'm scared that if I go into the body conditioning class that it will be a bunch of guys and that I'm going to feel REALLY stupid, but I want to know how to condition my body, especially when it comes to weight lifting. I don't know, you tell me.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Okay, this has been bothering me A LOT lately, but when I'm in the backroom of my area, it says that I have one new Private Message, but when I check my mail, it isn't there. And I've checked all the folders and everything, but it's JUST NOT THERE! Is there anything you can do to make it go away?[/color][/size]

[quote name='Nordic Angel']HELP!!!! ANYONE!!!! I NEED SOME HELP!!! I wanna make some buttons, but I don`t know how to! If there`s anyone that could help me, I would be very gratefull.....[/quote] [color=hotpink][size=1]Well, I think I know what you're talking about, but I guess all you have to do is find a picture you like, resize it to the desired size, crop the portion that you want, draw a border, and perhaps add some text. I don't have a very good imaging program, so I don't really make many graphics, but good luck to you. If you can't figure it out, I'm sure there is someone around here who can help. ^_^[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Yeah, I used to exercise on a regular basis, but I haven't in SO long and I think it's the reason that I'm so sick all the time now. I need to figure out a routine as we have an AMAZING gym here at UGA, but I just can't motivate myself to go. If anyone could give me so advice, please do! ^_^; ALSO, I am thinking about taking yoga. Anyone else into that? Will it help me at all? I am very flexible, lol.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I absolutely love my hair, so I'm very careful with it, especially when I get it cut. My hair used to be all the way down to my butt and I had awful bangs, but the ends were so dead and dried that it didn't look good. Now I have very long hair again, but this time it's very healthy. I do my own highlights. It's pretty easy to get someone to pull it through a cap for you. The one time I did it myself, it took me three hours to pull all of my hair through the cap. But I got a TON of compliments on it. I've always wanted to get my hair foiled, but it costs SO much at the salon because they want to do three shades of blonde and low-lights. As long as my hair is, it would cost $100+. Plus, when I see people who dye their hair too much, it is ULTRA frizzy. Yuck. And my best friend is my straightening iron. Even though I have naturally straight hair, if I don't feel like blow-drying it, I can just break my straightener out the next day and make it look awesome. I LOVE MY HAIR! *attaches a picture*[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Yeah, I know that Lelia was supposed to be the "primary" Angel, but I wanted Arianna to be a lover. And I thought there was no better way to make her as such than to put her in a relationship with Adam. But see, I wanted her to be more than just "one of the girls" to him, I wanted her to be "special." I don't know. I guess I wanted him to lead her on in many ways, but then to be serious in many ways. I thought of this even before I saw Kill Bill (ha ha for me not seeing before being part of this RPG), and now that I HAVE seen it, I like the relationship between Bill and Bea so much. I don't know, I could go on and on about it, but yeah. What's here is here. And since Jenna is out of the game, I don't exactly have to make Lelia a big part of it...lol. But I have been inspired. I haven't written anything more than what I have above, but adding Lelia into the mix should be LOTS of fun. After all, Arianna IS the second Angel, and so making that a part of it should be easy. It would be a good way to incorporate the chapter where Lelia and Arianna actually meet. Thanks for the feedback, James, lol, now I think I can continue more story. After my two papers and test. -_-[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I TOTALLY believe that Oreos make you sexier. At least in my case, lol. As I was sitting here today, minding my own business, munching on my Halloween Oreos (orange cream, yummyness), Mimmi dons me as [b]Sexyness.[/b] Why else would she give that nickname to me? Is it because I was already sexy? (*coughyeahcough*) MAYBE IT WAS THE OREOS! Sorry, I get SO enthused about Oreos. They are my favorite cookie. And even if I am getter fatter, at least I still look sexy while eating them. ^_^[/color][/size]
