Thanks for offering to help pass the word along; I'm sure it'll be a great help! =D I'll be sure to give you the info as soon as things are up. ^-^
It's good to hear that having roommates turns out good too. XD
I'm personally not a really big fan of Anime music videos because a lot of the ones I've seen generally weren't really that good, but going to the contest really opened my eyes a bit more to appreciating the art. I've seen a few before that I really liked like "Skittles" and one on Weird Al's song "horoscope" containing Sailor Moon and various other anime clips. I'll check out the AMV you mentioned on that site. ^.^ My brother gets his anime music videos there too.

Oh, I figured I'd put it here since my roommate reads my journal and is kinda weird about some things...
You asked on my journal if I had a passion or anything that I can put into a career...but I have to say that the only thing I've REALLY wanted was to visit Japan. After talking with a friend who lives there, he's convinced that I could and should just move there entirely.
I could get a job there as an english teacher basically, and the school also helps with getting a place, which I'd only need a small one really. The more I've thought about it (which I've given it a LOT of thought) the more it just seems like it would fit me o.O Obviously, there's still a lot I'd have to do if I do decide to...but it's the only thing I've really given this much thought to o.O

Just wondering, how's your Japanese language knowledge? =o Can you really go to Japan and get a teaching career that easily? I don't how your Japanese knowledge is, and I don't want to make assumptions. '_' -but anyhow, my cousin just left to become an English teacher in Japan. ^-^ She's studied till fluency and needed to be interviewed on her perspective, teaching background, and stance on the practice of teaching. I know that there are probably many various types of programs for doing that because there's more than one way after all, right? ^^ If you and your friend really think you can start that career, I hope that you enjoy teaching. XD
I really hope that you have a back-up plan though in case some things don't work out though. ._. Sounds exciting, fun, but scary.
I totally missed this post because I was out for a weekend of getting my ass kicked (kendo camp). ^^;
Hey dude, nice website. :3 Keep up the good work, and KEEP DRAWING! I made a separate journal where my goal is to post at least one picture every week, so you gotta at least match that. ;)
Congrats to the both of you on the shop as well. Keep me informed on development. You know I can always be your Hong Kong hook-up. :D
Did I really make my college roommate experiences sound that bad? ^^; It was really just that one guy... you know, the triad member... who tried to kill me. ^^;;; But seriously, rooming in a house was pretty nice, and it's MUCH more convenient than a dorm imo. It's always nice to room with people you know too, but otherwise, it's a great opportunity to make friends. Hope your brother has a good time.
yeah, thanks, I'm sure I'll be drawing as much as you. ^_- I'll saw some of your work on your other LJ a little bit after you already started it, but you know me, I was too lazy to log in and leave a comment.. ^^;; >_> I'm really happy to see you drawing again! >D -now, draw some more epic comics! XD
I'll keep you up on what's going on with the store. ^-^ It's coming along slowly.
Yes, you made it sound pretty terrible! XD I remember when I visited your dorm and found out there was only one bathroom or something.. >.> That was a bit surprising, but then also... not... o_< You talking about how nice it was makes me kinda want to try. XD I probably won't ever though. ^^;
I just realized you don't have BoF3 on your fav games...what's up with that D= That's like my fav one...and you even put 5, and that one was so bad ;_;
rawr Feifei D= oh...I guess I coulda just edited one of the other two replies >.> well...this way I can use my BoF3 icon =P
I really liked 5 because though it was very different, I felt that the interface and system was very well thought out and implemented. =o It had great music, was very atmospheric, artsy, high frame rate, had interesting concepts, and was a little twisted for atmospheric fun. XD It was also really fun getting mystery items from monsters and chests =o; It's almost like the Phantasy Star Online "I hope I get something cool this run" addiction. XD I wasn't so fond on the character designs other than Rin though and I really didn't like Nina's design... >_> I didn't like how they try to give you the idea that Bosch was Ryu's friend though he was nothing of the like and I really didn't like the death/save penalty and how you were evaluated on your performance through the game to open up more stuff for later play throughs... >.I really liked BoF3 up till the point when Ryu grows up. ._. It all feels downhill for me there because though Ryu looks cool, Nina REALLY doesn't. -_- They had a bunch of
( ... )
Yeah I'm a huge BoF fan, played them all multiple times. Well...except 5...I just didn't like that you were FORCED to start over multiple times just to go through it x.x
( ... )
ah! yes... XD I guess you got me on the whole customization thing. XD lol I guess I just really messed up. >.< I gave Nina that magic master from the tournament that gave a ton of int as soon as I could, but my Nina still ended up having really weak magic. ._. I suppose I needed some stat foods too... >.> It's strange though that my brother and his friend played through the game too (separately) and Nina ended up being really bad in their files too. ._. -though my brother's friend did say that in his first playthrough, he mysteriously got her really strong, but he doesn't know how. o_< -anyhow, I guess the fact that my characters' stats seemed really wimpy and unbalanced kills my argument, but I was still disappointed that they used the sprite they did instead of using the design with the red skirt. ._. I was really looking forward to that. XD I guess I should play through it again. o_<
Yes, Garland is "Gar" in the English version. sorry >.< I get attached to Japanese names when they change them in localization to games I like... I
