[color=darkviolet]I think that would be, [i]Where did you come from, where did you go?[/i]

Ugh, that has got to be one of the most annoying songs in history and the video was stupid too.

So, what do you do anyway?[/color]

[COLOR=Navy]I'm very much alike to roxybudgy.

I'm a High school Student who was originally from Malaysia then I came to Western Australia when I was 18 months old, which is now 14 years. I haven't left WA since we came here(which really sucks).

I hate the time differences between Australia and America because you want to talk to the members but they're not online at the same time as you and some fast moving RPs just speed along while you're sleeping.

And lots of people are older than me....

Anywayz ^^;;

I live in North Carolina. I am waiting for heart surgery so am not working at the moment. I have 3 children and 2 grandchildren. I love life, and hope it loves me back. After the surgery, I will return to work as a Certified Pharmacy Technician. I have a wonderful husband, who is my second. He is very sweet and is Latino. I've been to school and passed for Certified Nurses Assistant. I love working in the medical field. I was an EMT for 3 years, and loved every minute of it. If you have any questions, please don't be afraid to ask.

OK....

I'm going to assume that was a joke. HAHA. Alright - serious posts only please.

EDIT: Semi-serious is acceptable - but give us SOME information that is relevant to your actual life.

[COLOR=Gray][FONT=Courier New]Well, I'm a 1536 year old albino Elf Rogue who has plans to multi-class as a monk some time in the near future. : ) Fun, fun, fun.

In a physical sense, I'm a student who lives in the (last time I checked, at least) most cosmopolitan city in the world. I spend all my money on DnD, manga, and anime, and I have a particular abhorance of hands-on I.Q. tests. They just suck infinately. u_u

In other words, I'm a total loser who was four percent away from failing French, and who once got two 0%'s on tests, in a row.

: )

Now, about becoming a monk...[/FONT][/COLOR]

[I][FONT=Century Gothic][SIZE=3][COLOR=Green]Well, how am I? I'm an extremely tall, teenage girl, that's gonna start her first year high school when summer ends, and graduated form junior high with the best grades in her class; I'm considered strange here because I like manga and anime, which aren't very famous here; I also do sports, such as tennis, and horse back riding, and, I own my very own horsy!! I draw manga as my favorite hobby, but I also have other hobbies, such as being on devART or here on the OB or reading. :D

My mom's American and my father's from Venezuela, but, my father's and mother's family comes from Spain, but , one great granmother of mine was German, and came to Venezuela during World War 2; so, you could say I'm Venezuelean, American, Spanish and German!! XD :wigout:

Now, the other question, where do I come from? Well, that's a simple question, I live
in a small country in the northern part of South America called Venezuela, maybe you've heard about our political crisis, that and the Miss Universes we have are the only thing that makes us relatively known by people :rolleyes:

I live in it's capital city of Caracas, it's really a nice place, of course, if you don't count all of the insecurity, the deaths, or the military that doesn't respect civil rights, and harm citizens when they're protesting, it's a very nice city... :eek:

Well, hope that's enough for ya!!
Peace to all, signing out, this was,

[I, Colossus]

I live in San Antonio. I enjoy a multitude of things, I play video games, listen to music, watch TV, and skating (board). That just about scratches the surface.

I'm currently attending driving school and I'm in tenth grade at St. Gerard Catholic High School. I pretty much hate it their, my parents sent me there in an effort to...dicipline me? I guess that was there goal. But it hasn't really done much other than making it worse. So at least it backfired...

I'd like to become a filmmaker. And that's about it.

Food : Cucumbers (With Ranch), Pizza, Doritos, Jolt, Cheetos, Hot Wings.

[SIZE=1]Me, I'm from Los Angeles, CA. But i wasn't born here. I was born in Phillippines and grew up here in Hollywood for about 13 years already. Right now I'm 14 turning 15 this November (Cant wait till my birthday ><).
What i do? I draw, play guitar, read manga, watch anime and tv shows, right my own dark poems, and listen to any kinds of music. And of course, i play video games too.
I always stay inside my house. ( I don't know anyone around and my friends live like 5 or 7 blocks away). But i sometimes go to the park or ride a bike around the city or maybe go shopping in a nearest cool clothes store.
What i do most of the time is chatting with my friends and posts messages in all of the message boards i joined in.
And that's about it!

[Guest Vash331]

Lets see here, i'm 16 and live in tennessee. I'm about to be a Junior. I'm a fairly smart guy, i take all the advanced classes, high gpa blah blah blah.

I'm also in the marching and concert band. I play alto sax during marching season, and play bassoon during concert season. I also used to play the clarinet in middle school. And i play guitar...i guess i play a lot, i love music, lets see here right now i'm listening to BareNaked Ladies on iTunes.

Of course i post here in OtakuBoards, but i'm also active in the fan art section, as a matter of fact i just got 2 of my first drawings posted today, i use the same username if you wanna check them out click ----> [URL=http://fanart.theotaku.com/artist.php?user_id=8905]my drawings[/URL]

I also do the typical teenage stuff, hang with friends go to school, etc.

[eh luu]

[FONT=Lucida Console][COLOR=DarkRed] to start off;
I am from Illinois, the most probably boreing place that i believe exists in this point of time but only on the account of i cant find anything to do and all of my friends are atleast a 20 minute drive away, so therefore i look foreward to school to spend time with my friends, i am in my 3rd year of highschool, and i aim to become an artist, and hopefully get into the animation industry.. lame, i know. but they are dreams i hope to fufill because i could probably waste a day away drawing and living in that fantasy world, except when i have artist block.. then i just mope around that day and end up surfing the internet ^^;
but i cant say i am the normal typical smart geek, i am actually more of an average student, perhaps i should actually take my head out of the clouds for once to possibly achieve something worthe bragging about no? i mean the only thing right now i can brag about is teh computer art awards i recieved when my teacher only put me in for an extra. ;.; i was a sophomore at the time and they usually except juniors. awell, blah blah.. i am a homebody..blah blah.. i think that is all you care to read about anyways even if you did read ^^; [/FONT] [/COLOR]

I WAS SERIOUS ABOUT THE HEART SURGERY.........

[dMage]

I live in the SoCal area, and am luckily close to various amusements, which I take advantege of whenever I can. I attend a community college where I plan to get rid of my GE, before advancing to a four, which will prolly end up being a cal state. (Fullerton to be exact) Besides attending school, I am currently looking for a job. I play the guitar, take martial art lessons, and like to play tcg's. I enjoy watching anime and reading manga and comics whenever I can, but its not often, to be honest. I read. Like origami too. thats about it, I think.

[Bushidopunk]

I am from Orange County, California ( The O.C. ;) ). More specifically, the city of Laguna Niguel. I am 18 and getting ready to go to Loyola Marymount University in L.A. where I'll be going into poly-science and then Pre-law, and I'm also getting prepared for Officer training in the Marine Corps :cool: .

I play the guitar, soccer, rugby, and I used to run track & field. I am a a skilled martial artist, having received my second degree black belt in Korean Tae Kwon Do and Japanese Hai ki do. I stopped a year before receiving my 3rd degree black belt. I also plan to go study martial arts abroad in Japan. I listen to punk rock and ska music( Southern California guy, go figure ;) ), some of my favorite bands are Rancid, Swingin' Utters, Ramones, Reel Big Fish, and the Misfits. Oh, did I mention I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove anime :D

Sorry about that - the rest of your original post didn't seem all that serious - my apologies.

[Guest Drizzt]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]I am a 16 year old guy and I live in California, Pennsylvania. I'm going into my Sophomore year in high school. My classes range from normal to advanced and of coarse i'm taking Art. I'm currently looking for a paying job but probably nothing that is too much commitment. Probably going for moeing lawns :P I hope to get a career as either a artist or an engineer.

I listen to a lot of different kinds of music but right now I'm into Punk but Linkin Park will always be my favorite band ( it was the first ). Sorry to all you rap fans but I can't stand rap >.< rap=crap

I am a computer gamer. I don't mess around with Ps2 or any other gaming system, I stick with my computer! Some of my favorite games are Age Of Empires II, Warcraft III, and Unreal Tournaments.

I'm in any band I can get my hands on, Marching, Jazz, Concert, County, etc. . . I play the Trumpet and damn good at it ^_^ I had first parts my freshman year. I also play the guitar and know how to play the piano. I'm also an artist. I have my art posted here at theotaku ( DarkFireDragon ). The only sport I play is Soccer but I haven't played for a while ( I'm planing on playing this spring ). Also I practice sword fighting. My personal favorites are the Bow, Sabars, Rapiers, Celtic style short swords, and Double weilding of short swords. I'm a big fan of the middle ages, the age of knights and kings and of coarse I'm a huge anime fan!

That it for now[/COLOR]

[SaiyanPrincessX]

[COLOR=SlateGray]I'll be starting my Senior year this month, and turning 18 next month. I was born in Phoenix, AZ but moved to Ohio when I was 10 1/2, where I currently live.

After I graduate I plan to join the military, very high probibility. Either the Navy or the Air Force. After that I'd like to goto Tri-C (Cuyahoga Community College) to take various Japanese courses. I also would like to goto an Art school, but I'm not sure where yet. My career plans are to be a Manga Artist.

I'm really into Anime, manga, drawing, and martial arts. Those are four of my passions. I took Tae Kwon Do when I was 16, started in December 02', but had to quit after only a few months due to money and transportation problems. I will be starting again soon however, despite the fact that we're still really low on money.

I still don't have my drivers license, unfortunetaly. Which makes things difficult. I hope to get it before summers out but my parents are never able to take time off to take me to the classes and such.[/COLOR]

[Ellester41]

Um... I'm 14 years old. I live in NY, in the USA. Near Buffalo. Really boring. -.- I'm a student. I'm going into 9th grade. When (if) I get my allowance, or if I help my parents or something and get money, I spend it on manga and ... breath mints, I guess. Minty! ... ok, I'm wierd. But, hey. That's me.

Squish-a-fish! <*)))-{

Whoa, whoa. We're very strict about modest people here, Drizzt. Could you really just tell us how good you are? No need to downplay it... ;)

There seems to be a lot of you who are about to pee your pants with excitement at the thought of getting a driver's license. It's not that amazing. Just find another friend who has a car and a license, and let them drive you around everywhere - a much more efficient mode of travel!

There seem to be so many people introducing themselves who I've never even seen before on OB. So, to make anudda' request: Please mention where we would most likely find you on OB (i.e. Adventure Arena, Art Studio, Anime Lounge, etc., etc.) in addition to the rest of your details.

Thanks all!

[Shinmaru]

I thought that I'd already posted in here. Well, let's give it a whirl, then...

I'm eighteen years old (nineteen in November) and I live in Southern California, where, thank god, the heat seems to be dying down a bit. I hate our summers with a passion. I graduated high school this past year, and I'll be going to Cal Poly Pomona and majoring in journalism. Should be okay as long as the school doesn't drive me away with all their crap beforehand.

As for my interests...mostly entertainment in general. Reading, writing, video games, television (though not nearly as much as when I was younger), movies, music (far more than when I was younger) and other assorted things.

On OB, you'll most likely find me at Play It, though I visit just about every forum we have. After Play It, I probably hang around the Adventure Square the most, followed closely by Music, Movies and TV and Anime Lounge. But, yeah, Play It is where the majority of my posts end up going. I just like talking about video games a lot, I suppose.

[Ezekiel]

[COLOR=SlateGray]*has decided to post again because new things have happened in her life*

*coughs* yeah! Well, I've moved house since I last posted in this thread...all those weeks ago and my life has, erm...changed quite a bit *smiles*

I finally think I've decided on what I'm doing with my life, Teaching English in an International School in Japan.
I know that seems like a pretty well thought out goal considering I'm still very young, but I guess that?s what my heart is set on.

So, now I live in a smaller house but it seems to be so much better, not sure why, really. The place is far from quiet and there isn?t much to do but it seems more like home than the last place did.

Hm, what else? Um...my parents have [I]finally[/I] split up and are living in different countries (I'm with my mum) and I know that sounds strange but it's for the best, so I'm fine with it. *thinks hard* ow....might as well finish off with where I hang out/haunt.

That would be the Adventure Square/Inn/Underground mostly, as most of you probably know but I also tend to frequent the Otaku Lounge. I'm trying to visit the other Forums, but that's a slow work in progress.
So, erm...nothing else new now *waves* this thread is still a great read![/COLOR]

[Ani_Freak]

[COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]Well, it's been quite a long time since I've been here. Why not try this one, now that I returned.

Well, I'm from Puerto Rico, a tiny little island in the carribbean, of wich I'm very proud of. In fact, we managed to beat the US basketball "Dream Team" in Athens, but thats another story I guess.

I was born here and currently work as a Real Estate agent and I also have a Sports store. Do I do sports? No. But I sell almost everything from headbands to uniforms. I finished my Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration in Finances last year and hopefully, will enter Law School this next year.

While off work, I like seeing movies, anime, and playing video games. I also like to hang out with friends and overall, just have a good time.

I guess that's all but if you wanna know more, just ask (duh).

Later all.

[Katana]

[color=RoyalBlue][size=1]Well, let's see...
I'm a thirteen-year-old middle school student. Going into eighth grade to be exact. I live roughly fifty miles west of Chicago, near a small town called Lily Lake (so small, the biggest landmark is probably the grade school, originally built in 1918). I'm in band, and I play the oboe for symphonic band. The first three months are marching band, where I play bells.
I dun do that much - can't talk about my job, because I really don't have one. I like to write alot, and draw. At school, I have an art wall with my friends, with over 100 drawings from sixth and seventh grade. I guess that's my job; entertaining my classmates and the younger kids with random anime drawings 'n stuff.
...I'm taking multimedia and video porduction first semester, then art second semester. Can't wait; maybe I can build a career off of them.
Oke-dokey, buh-bye! ^^;[/size][/color]
