I read the first one, but never got around to Through the Looking Glass. And yeah, I forgot, of course Alice would be older...but nineteen? Seriously now, Alice's young age was part of what made this whole acid trip of a story so great.
I like Larxene a lot. She's vicious enough to give a good name to girls for Organization XIII. I mean, if all they had was Namine, who doesn't fight or do anything intimidating, only the males would be the strong ones. Larxene's pretty awesome. Of course, I'm talking about Chain of Memories, which was before we knew anything about Xion.
Ah, that sounds interesting. Sure, that'd be great! Although I won't be getting the game for a while since my Mac doesn't have Leopard.
I'm really against the concept of online dating. It's not the same as knowing someone in real life and being able to see them on a regular basis. First of all, how do you know the person you're dating online isn't really a forty-year-old man in his parents' basement? People can be whoever they want on the internet. Also, and this may just be because I've always been against the idea of people trying to fall in love with each other (I think friendship should come first, and love will come on its own), online relationships feel too forced. One could argue that online dating helps you see only the personality and not the looks, but that's not true, either. On the internet, you have the chance to think about what you say before you say it. With the internet, you don't get to see the person's body language, hear what their voice sounds like, or see what clothes they wear, which are all a part of who they are. When you really know a person, you can tell when they're upset or angry by the look on their face, the body language they're using, or the tone of their voice. It's different for everybody--one person might show he's sad by looking at his shoes all the time, and another might show depression by putting on a smile that's way too bright to be genuine. Also, when you finally meet in person, what if there's no physical attraction? I'm not talking about looks, I'm talking about physical chemistry. Of course, personalities matching comes first, but physical attraction is a part of it. Long story short, online dating is not the best method for finding a date, in my opinion.
Yeah, I guess it just depends on how you word things. I think if you had a relationship with the dead person in question, you would probably want to refer to them by using their name, not using mechanical terms such as "Bob's body". The latter is just so depressing.
I think it's fine to have best friends. You don't have to make it like a friend hierarchy or anything (for example, don't rate your friends as best, second best, etc.) but it's great to be close to someone. Of course everyone isn't going to be your best friend. I count the people I know best, who know me best, and who I enjoy being around as my best friends. As for being too clingy, it's possible to be good friends with someone without being like that. Just don't depend on them too much and give them space to breathe when they need it. But if that friend wants you around a lot and you like being with them, then it's not clingy.
I was always going to be named Morgan...so if I'd been a boy, I guess I would have had the same name. XD
Hmm, that would be interesting if there was a secret ending, or at least something that would give us a little preview. I'm pretty sure they'll have Kairi and Riku fighting alongside Sora in this one. If they don't, I'll be pretty disappointed. They better not have Kairi getting kidnapped again. She has the potential to be a good character, but if the games keep having her as the damsel in distress instead of one of the heroes, there's no way she can be properly developed. I think, in Kingdom Hearts III, she should finally be able to fight, and really fight, not just Shadows like in Kingdom Hearts II. I doubt this game will give us very much of a spoiler, but maybe they'll grant us a little something. I would love to see the three of them in their new clothes, and yes, hopefully Kairi will be wearing something more fighting-friendly.
I tried making a Sim on my cousin's computer yesterday and was kind of disappointed. For the life of me, I could not figure out how to change her face. I clicked on chin, cheeks, and everything, but in the end she just ended up looking like the same person. I couldn't make the lips very thin or the eyes very different. Actually, playing it yesterday, I thought it was way more limited than the customization available in the Sims 2. I haven't actually played it in the house yet, but I'll have to see.
Right now: On Writing by Stephen King. It's brilliant.
Oh boy, this is going to be awesome. He's always got pretty dark stuff, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this one turns out. *looks up actors on IMDb* Um...am I the only one who finds it weird that the girl playing Alice is nineteen? She looks excellent for the role, but maybe a little old. Well, this kills me inside. How ridiculous. But the photos look nice.
About your parents and college, don't listen to them. As many here have already said, it is your life, therefore your decision. Don't let them pressure you into doing something they want for you that you don't necessarily want. If you want to travel, then travel. Once you turn eighteen, your parents no longer have control over you. They might think they know what's best for you, but the reality is, if they're not listening to your wants and needs and instead letting their own desires get in the way, they are doing what's best for them. You will be a legal adult once you head to college, so there won't be anything they can do about it. As for the friends thing, these things happen, but usually they blow over. About two years ago my sister had a long argument with two friends and the fighting lasted for a while, but now they're the best of friends again and willing to forget the past. It seems like that is what will happen with these friends of yours. Even if it doesn't, do you have any other friends you could hang out with so you're not so lonely? As for your friend who's moving, I've been in that situation. I moved across the country a while ago and now I keep in touch with my friends over facebook. Maybe you could try that? For me, it really helps me keep up with what's going on with them and vice versa.
Ahh, yeah...boredom is the reason these sites even exist, really.
Hey! Nothing much has been happening with me. I haven't been on the site in a while, but just got back into it. You?
Yeah, that's pretty messed up. I mean, I'm sure the eighteen-year-old feels awful about it, but she needs to exercise more responsibility when taking care of a child, especially one that young. I can sort of understand leaving the kid in the car while going into the store (although if it was me and the kid was four, alone, and not my child, I wouldn't have done it), but at the very least, she should have locked the doors. People do idiotic things, sure, but this shows why peopel need to be more careful. Sure, you might not expect something bad to happen to you, but you need to take precautions anyway, because there's still a chance. Poor girl. I hope she turns up soon, and that all she did was wander off. Here's hoping she wasn't kidnapped.
My, look at all the *'s in this thread. I don't ****ing blame them. This is pretty sickening. What do they mean the five year old made contradictory statements? She's five years old, and probably freaking nervous in a courtroom! The poor little thing doesn't have much of a chance. This world can be pretty effed up, and this is just one of those glaring examples.
Hey, it's their decision. If they can keep up a healthy, stable relationship and don't do anything physical when both of them aren't ready for it, then it's fine. Sure, not many relationships with that big of a gap work out when people are still young, but they should at least be given a chance. As long as the twelve year old is not taken advantage of, it's fine. Two people loving each other is not sick if they truly love each other.
I would rather lose the one I love than never find love at all. I mean, if you lose them, then there's still a chance for love again, but if you choose the other option, you're stuck forever. I'm sure there are plenty of cases where a lover has died and the survivor has found somebody else to be with. It doesn't mean you're replacing the person, either.
As pointless as this argument is, it's fun to see all the responses. Personally, I have no idea. It could be either one. Usually I have a firm stance when it comes to a debate, but whether the chicken or the egg came first doesn't matter much to me, so I don't. ;)
