Mine was given to me by a friend because while I am not an expat, I am an American. My life experiences have led me to be a bit of a foreigner in my own homeland - hence semiexpat.

Absolutely nothing. I just like it. I'm considering changing it to my name, but I have yet to become tired with this one.

I'd like to know what yours means!

I like keepsakes, can be very nostalgic.

blue_hours_too has double meaning. I love the Blue Hour, both morning and night, this twilight, it's enchanting. There's l'heure bleue in art, photography... etc. And while I tend to be rather happy and cheerful, I have blue hours too sometimes, like everyone. SO that's the story of my name.

I wanted to use Wildcat, which usually is my chat handle, but was of course taken. A close friend calls me San and others from chat call me Kitty (due to Wildcat) so I thought I put the two together.

San is cute, it's related to Japan? Random observation but I notice that Europeans use underscores a lot to seperate words in user names while North Americans usually don't. Hmmmm.

No... nothing that fancy, just short for Sandra.

as for the underscores, I'm not a big fan of them but they are still better thanputtingwordsclosetogetherwithoutspaceandsomakeitreallyhardtoread

(I hit the spacebar after everyword and had to delete again, d'uh)

This makes me want to go back to your very first entry. Would that be weird and stalkerish? I have never done it before. ;)

plicease (плйсис) means "perfect collaboration" in Shasharian.

Shashars is the name of a planet that I invented when I was in the first grade. I had my entire class convinced that they too came from my wonderful planet where I was Emperor. Shasharian in the language that they speak there. Not surprising that you hadn't heard of it :) You asked what it stood for not to explain it :)
