It happens.

I'm still alive.

I also have a new profile picture:

Have a great day

If so, thank you.

Because I'm suffering the effects of it

Those are good moments because they rely on myself and not in other people.
For example, enjoy writing short stories or occupying my mind with interesting stuff

Then there are moments where everything looks bad.
These moments are not caused by me. They are caused by life.
School. Job. People. They are things I can't control.

I'm going through moments that are both hard and easy.

I try to be positive

It's hard but I'll try

Putting the majority of my time into something that won't work out for me

I'm only fooling myself... that's not a good thing

It makes everything exciting but it's just sad... (-_-メ ]]> https://ameblo.jp/xdove007/entry-10760906378.html Fri, 07 Jan 2011 13:39:50 +0900
Good thing there are TV shows such as Modern Family




The show, literally, makes me LOL - which is awesome!

Even though I have joined Ameba, I'm afraid I don't know the Japanese language. I only know about five or so words, which I learned through watching Japanese movies (I'm a big fan of International films). Other than that, I'm clueless of the language. Am I interested in the Japanese culture? Yes. I find it fascinating. Do I involve myself in it? Not necessarily.

So, where am I getting at?

How come those that are interested in Japan literally immerse themselves in the culture to the point where they want to appear Japanese? Such as adopting the lolita look (some girls can pull it off, others can't - it depends on their 'young appearance'), fashion and wanting to look very kawaii. They get to the point, in my opinion, where they look RIDICULOUS. White girls adopting the Japanese look - WHY?! I'm not trying to say that being Japanese is bad because it isn't. I'm speaking how those white people (or any other race) aren't proud of their heritage which is sad, to be honest. It's not only girls but guys too

It's one thing to be interested in the culture and admire it, it's another when they want to be part of "it" to the point where, well, you get my drift...

Personally, I find Japan to be an interesting country with interesting people

In this case, I'm speaking about blogging. Not only in this site but in others as well. The one place I'm practically active is in tumblr but that's not a blogging site

I have to admit that even in those sites where I'm active, I don't always show my true self. Well, that's a lie but not quite.

So I've decided {again} that I'll pick up blogging. Unlike the beginning when I first came to this website, I will actually write an entry - whether it's long or not.

It's funny though, that of all the places I could do that, I decided to pick Ameba. A website that's made in Japanese for Japanese. I, honestly, don't know the language. I know about 5 words but other than that, nothing! So, why join Ameba? Because I find it interesting. Plus, there's a possibility that no one will know what I'm writing about but of course I could be wrong. So how do I navigate? Well, by looking up the URL and just take a guess at what it could be. Granted, it takes a while but it's good. Plus, I only stick to my dashboard and blog, so I'm not really "wondering around

Oh well

I don't like Sunday's because of that reason.

It's Wednesday and by the time I wake up tomorrow morning it'll be Thursday.

The week went by fast... but I'll still complain when Sunday rolls around

My math class start at 4:30 pm, so I have about an hour before I leave.
The class is not really my favorite, but, oh well

Whether I'm walking in the rain or not, I don't mind. The weather is just PERFECT
