You're fine. No worries. I understand what was said was offensive. He seems to have toned down now so hopefully everyone else will be able to...
Consider this the ONLY warning I am going to be giving out. Sam, you've gone and pushed things far enough. Back off please and stop this. Cin and TMM, you both know better. Don't assist someone who is acting out the role efficiently on his own of being an idiot.
Moving this to 358/2 Days. Carry on~~
yay Rosey! Invading your sacred space. rawr.
Sure, give me the link to it and I'll move it.
Well I was booted out of the Red Strawberry Fields Forever group so ..I'm homeless. Invite me to the purpley group. pweeze? :(
Wow, how mean! xD
This isn't because of ICSP so don't go taking it out on him. Things happen and people want to move on. I hope things go well for you, Pyro. You are one of my best friends here and someday I hope you will bring your fiery grace back.
I hear ya. I'm in NY. Silly snowstorms.
You guys both did really well. I'm impressed. I hope you'll do more.
Red is awesome but I'll get used to the purple. Stay cool!
It was kind of sad that after defeating Sephiroth in this game, we did not get anything really out of it. In KH:FM there is a Keychain that you get but for some reason it was left out of the original game. :/ However, I did enjoy fighting Sephiroth at least and finishing up all of the matches then so it wasn't all bad.
Mickey is the King and is pretty well done with training. He was a former student of Yen Sid, just as at one time he worked for Pete on his steamboat. It's actually part of Disney history that was put into the game. Yen Sid was his mentor in Fantasia and there are old cartoons where Mickey worked for Pete and that's why we see it in Timeless River. As for the Keyblades, they choose their owners based on who the person is and their alignment. Riku was the Keyblade owner until he decided to turn to Darkness rather than his friends because of his despair. His decision made the Keyblade choose Sora as the actual owner in Hollow Bastion. He was not 'evil' prior to that. He was trying to save Kairi and was still redeemable. He just ended up getting the short end of the stick when it came to where he ended up and he was also used. He was used by Xehanort's Heartless and so was Kairi, who was sent to find the Keyblade's intended bearer. So, no, Riku was not 'evil' but stuck in a very bad situation, having been taken advantage of because he was naive and desperate. He had his flaw and so did Sora. The Keyblade made its final decision when Riku cast his friend aside and chose Darkness instead out of mistrust. King Mickey obtained his Darkside Kingdom Key from the realm of Darkness. It doesn't come out and say it so directly but in KH1, this is where it happens. He encounters Riku in Darkness because Riku ends up there after holding off Xehanort's Heartless from finishing off Kairi, Donald and Goofy after Sora sacrifices himself. Riku and Xehanort after this battled and Xehanort's Heartless sent Riku's spirit (Heart and Soul) to Darkness, but still had a link to him so he could control Riku's form without being inhibited any further. When Sora defeats Xehanort's Heartless, his Heartless goes and opens the Door to Darkness. Within you can see King Mickey pull out the Darkside Kingdom Key on a mount and he uses it to aid Sora in sealing the Door to Darkness. Xehanort rejoins with Riku, which is why Riku could not leave Darkness and would remain. Sora and King Mickey then seal the Door to Darkness because both the Kingdom Key and Darkside Kingdom Key were required to do so and the game ends. As for why Xion has a Kingdom Key as well as Roxas, they are connected to Sora. Xion is also connected to Kairi, which I'm sure will be explained more in 358/2 Days.
People need to stop leaving. I'm going to go all sniffly. I understand the situations and hope all works out in the end. And rawr. I'm so bored and want cookies.
I'm worried about him. I have no idea what's going on and hope he's alright.
It's going. Hope you are doing alright.
Totally grape flavored. mhmm..wine. I'm really sad about ICSP leaving. :( Hope he'll be alright. And my rpg is like dead too and the court rp died... I need to find another decent rp now. Now that I have free time cuz school is done and I await my final results..life is boring.
You are absolutely one of my best friends on this site and I am a sad Replica to see you go. :( Please be well, and I hope someday you will return. You will be missed. I hope things get better for you soon.
If you want to lose weight, I'd suggest doing it for your own self, and not because of the opinions of others. It will help you with self-esteem because you truly can mold your body quite a bit to what you want it to look like and well, others will take notice as well so in the end, if you do it for yourself, you make yourself to what you want and win with others too automatically. I'd suggest not following fad diets. The clearest best way, though it takes more work, to lose weight is to exercise and to eat the right foods. Also, getting proper sleep is critical. Some things to do: - Try doing an alternation technique with workouts. Do some cardiovascular exercises such as running, jumping jacks, jump rope, etc that get your heart moving. These you should do 3 times a week, such as on Mon, Wed, Fri. On Tues, Thurs, try doing some lifting of weights, push ups, sit ups or crunchies, and that sort of thing so you build up muscle tone. Saturday and Sundays, take those as rest days so that your muscles recover. You can of course alter this to fit your needs, such as if you feel your weekends are easier for workouts, take off Mondays and Tuesdays or something. A 5 day a week work out plan will be good and those two days of recovery assist in allowing the muscles to heal. - At first do workouts for 15-20 minutes each day. Then try upping it to 30 mins, etc going up maybe 5 to 10 minutes more each day until you are comfortable but feel a strain so that you know you had a decent work out. You want to sweat some so you get some progress. Don't do exercises if you are really sore. Try doing some stretching instead that day and walking if you can so that you are moving but not over-straining yourself. - Sleep around 8 hours a day if you can. This helps the body recover. After a workout, take a shower or bath to help the muscles relax and also it helps keep your skin clear so that you don't get crummy breakouts of zits. - Try joining some sport if you can, but that may take a while based on your weight and how comfortable you feel about it. Make sure in school to participate in gym class!!! Don't take the easy way out and be on the sidelines. Participate in what is going on because the gym classes can help you. Don't listen to others who say it's 'uncool'. If there's nowhere else to do a good workout, it's at gym. Give it your all and ignore others who might make fun of you. Some people are just jerks and this is about you; not them. - Now for diet. Try to avoid fast food joints. If you do go to any, try to choose from the menus getting healthier things. Avoid fries or potato products. Avoid milkshakes and fried foods if you can. If you have to eat fast food from some place like BK, get a salad and/or a burger. - Eat in moderation. When you get food in front of you, eat like half of it and wait for 10 minutes, drinking some water between. If you still feel hungry after 10 minutes, eat a bit more. Eat until you feel 'content', not until you feel stuffed. If you are stuffed, you ate too much. - Try eating vegetables, fruits and meats more. Avoid frying and if you do need to have fried food, try to not eat too much grease. Eat less bread, potatoes, corn, starchy sorts of foods. Don't avoid them but try to consume them less than the fruits, veggies and meats. You might also want to try adding some spices to your foods other than salt. Salt retains water weight so use it somewhat less. Try some other things and you may find that the spices add some flavor but also some spices can help you lose weight a bit more. When eating vegetables, try to eat the darker greener vegetables if you can such as broccoli, green beans, darker leaf salad such as romaine. - Try some oolong or green tea now and then. They are antioxidents and help clear your system some. Also, drink water. You may have to now and then add some lemon juice or something to it to make it not so bland. Try to do that instead of drinking something ala cool aid. You may want to also take juice drinks and add some water to them to reduce how much sugar you are intaking but you can still enjoy the actual drink. If that sounds weird to you, consider that in fast food places, they add more water to the soda than you would get from a bottle of soda at your house. You'll be able to find a happy medium that will taste decent to you but also be less sugary than normal. Make sure to drink plenty of liquids, esp water as you work out. It really does make a difference and you don't want to dehydrate yourself. As Dredica suggested, some things you can do for yourself as you are changing things is to wear darker clothing. Also, don't wear clothing that has stripes going sideways on them because that also makes you look plumper. Avoid white if you can and too light of colors but well, don't just wear black either. I like black but well, it may not be to your liking. Make sure you get a good pair of shoes that are not just 'cool looking' but actually are made for work outs and such. Shoes can be rather important for comfort. Try not to wear clothes that are too big or too small for you. Get the size of clothes that you actually should wear. Too baggy of clothes doesn't hide fat just as much as too small of clothes doesn't. Hope this helps and if you have any questions, feel free to ask away. Good luck to you.
Ouch. Hope she gets out soon. I would say that yeah, you might want to take this time to take care of yourself if she's going to be gone 1 to 3 days. I'm not sure how bad the domestic abuse charge is or what she did so the duration can be a while. Usually it's 1 to 3 days. This is a good time to learn some independence perhaps with your sister such as perhaps getting some money from your dad when he gets home so that you and your sister maybe can go to the store, buy something and give cooking a whirl. You'll have to do that sort of thing often when you get older and move out so maybe you could give it a crack now as preparation. When you get done cooking or if you order food out etc, whatever you do, go ahead and do the dishes after and clean up the area a bit so it looks decent for when your dad gets home. Think of it as a time where you can learn some stuff. Most cooking stuff comes with directions so you'll be alright. Your dad may not want you out to go buy something but perhaps he'd give you money to order a pizza or something. You don't really have to go nuts on cleaning and stuff unless you want to prepare the place for when your mom does come back, but you do want to do some tidying just to at least keep the place in the state it was before she left. I hope things will work out for you and she'll be back soon. Domestic abuse usually isn't something that keeps someone away for long, but it depends on the severity of what she did. Good luck to you and your family. If you need any help on cooking or something, post here and we'll try to give you a hand.
