He used to watch PowerRangers as a kid. He made believe he was a red ranger and his mom scolded him for making a mess. Besides, he had a lot of PowerRangers figures and spent a lot of time engaged in imaginative solitary play. He saved the world by finishing off the evil. He was a super hero.
>>158 who didnt watch power rangers as a kid? hah. i never had power ranger's figurines, but i did have those swords that they would carry in the shows. i think that japanese power rangers was better than american one though.. american one was just cheesy. also, the american one used to use the robot battles scenes from the japanese version.
when i was in youchien however, i used to play omamagoto, rather than playing soccer with the boys. so most, if not all of my friends were girls.
i remember how everybody used to copy crayon shinchan's voice. haha.. good times.
Or did you have an experience that you ended up falling in love with someone that you thought was not pretty or cute at all at first? I mean like you gravitated to him/her in the end as you gradually came to understand what he (or she, kekeke!!) was like?
Which kind of boys (or girls) do you like better, independent and self-confident kind or humble and mushy kind?
What did you learn from the long-distance relationship? Was it agonizing to think about her (or him?) when you were apart?
Which nationality are you going to choose? America? If I'm not mistaken, you are supposed to decide at the age of 20, right? You are thinking of living in Japan, aren't you?
Don't feel like you're interrogated or anything. If you don't see fit to answer, just ignore them. Take care of yourself!!
>>162 i think everybody has had a crush one time in their lives lol. no, im not interested in guys, only GIRLS. lol
ive only had 2 girlfriends so far. im not sure if the first one was love.. probably infatuation. second one was probably half love, half infatuation, as it started from an internet relationship. right now, on the relationship side of things, im trying to find somebody that lives close and in real life. im interested in a couple of girls but im seeing how their personalities are first.. as i dont want to make the same mistakes i did in the past.
im hoping to find a girl that can go along with my jokes and not act cold. somebody that can talk when we have a dinner together. id prefer somebody that has a soft side to them but is honest and strong willed.
what did i learn from long distance relationship? id have to say that its hard to earn one's respect when you are not near them. i also think that its best to find somebody that has similar opinion on relationships. for example, i would like to exchange opinions and make desicions from listening to each other. i want to be able to compromise so things are best for both of us, not just one person. i would like the girl to rely on me but not solely on me. (たいていでいたい）
we were "going out" for 6 months before we finally met in the summer. it was very agonizing not being able to meet her until then... we used to talk on the webcam everyday for at least 4 hours (i would sometime stay up until 2am, even though i had to wake up at 6am for school)
im not exactly sure which... my parents want me to choose america but im not so keen on choosing it. to be honest, i could care less about america at this point... i just dont feel like i belong here... nobody is being racist to me or anything, its just that i dont feel like i can relate to many of the people here. anyways, ive had much more fun being with my asian friends (taiwanese,chinese,korean, japanese friends in highschool, right now, japanese friends) than with my american raised friends since 3rd grade (whom i still think is important to me).
sorry if i went a little off topic on some stuff. i tend to do that :/
>no, im not interested in guys, only GIRLS. lol I knew it. lmao I just thought I had follow the golden rule here. Now that you mention it, yeah, I remembered I had a crush when I was a kindergartener. lol But, no, I should've asked differently. Ever was pointless. Lately was more suitable. Well, forget about it anyway.
Yeah, I also think personalities are really important. Though of course I don't know about her true personalities, your thoughts/explanations reminded me of Sawajiri Erika. lol Cute and hot though she is, it might be really tough to go out with a girl like her. Ah, that's a bit off the point. Let's go back.
>i would like the girl to rely on me but not solely on me Yeah, if one is dependent heavily on the other, I'd say their realtionship won't last long. Like you are always asked where to go and what to eat or anything like that, when on a date. It'd be a burden, especially if s/he refuses your suggestion. I'd be like "Daaaaa, why don't you suggest an alternative, THEN!!" lol No, I'm not kidding. Habit of food sometimes is really a big problem. I mean it! Again off the topic...lol
Hmm, 6 months, 4hours a day. That's good enough to get to know each other, imo. What was the problem? On your side? Um, no, I shouldn't ask. There're things better left untouched.. Sorry about that. =_=
And from what you said, I guess it'd be better for you to choose Japan. Of course, I understand you should consider and respect your parents' wish, but the final choice must be up to you. Living in a place where you don't feel you belong...sounds like torture to me. Probably the Japanese side of you is stronger (am I wrong?). Though it may be both a good point and a bad point, Japanese people in general prefer to be in harmony with each other, as I'm sure you'd think along the same line as mine. Of course, it depends on what kind of people you are with, though.
Ok, have a good day! I think I'm going to have dinner!
sawajiri erika is pretty cute, but man, do i hate her snobbish personality.. if it was ever possible to go out with her, it would be one hell of a crazy trip.
yeah, i hate having decide to where to go and what to eat all by myself. i mean sure, sometimes is okay but not all the time. if the other person refuses after telling me that i can decide, i would just be frustrated.. lol.
4 hours a day is good to talk about random things and be all "lovey dovey" but its just different from real life relationship.. it just isnt the same, in my opinion. what was the problem? well, distance is one. second is that we had different views on relationships. she had dream-like view on how couples should be and i had a realistic view on how couples should be. third.. well humans arent perfect so we both had some bad parts.
yeah... its somewhat frustrating because i dont know anybody near me (especially, somebody who is also half) that can fully understand what im going through. harmony? i would have to agree with that. to be honest, i dont really think i have any enemies.. i just want to be friendly with everybody. that may be one of the reasons why i like the atmosphere in japan.
by the way, as far as i can tell, your english is perfect! ^^
