Also I keep seeing adverts for Transformers all over the place and it's making me sad ._. Hope your Toastformer's foot finally moved though. xD...
I miss you more >:
Maybe I should start typing entirely in Mandalorian, bright yellow, size one italicized text. That would be fun.
As Rissy said, I've met up with some of my closest friends from here. Last October I went to the New York ComiCon with Advent and Rayku, at that point I believe we had known each other for two or three years. Since then we've met up with each other a few more times, and we're planning to meet up with several more people from the area (like Xaale) sometime this month. I also just got back from a trip to England, during which I spent about five days with Fayt-Harkwind. He's been my boyfriend of almost two years now, but because of the massive distance between us (I live in the northeast US) it's taken this long for us to finally see each other. Despite the initial shyness both of us had, we got along just as well as we do online, and I'm pretty sure it was the best week of my life. We are both eighteen though, so that likely has to do with the fact that our parents were okay with us spending time together. My mom was also okay with him staying in the same hotel room as us, but again, that probably has to do with age. We did a lot of stuff together, like go to the zoo, some interesting museums, and seeing a movie, but the downside to this (and getting close with any online friend that's not near you) is that you will probably miss the person very much when they're not around. I do miss Advent and Rayku since they're like brothers to me, but they're only a train ride away, whereas Fayt is a long trip across the Atlantic. But was the six/seven hour plane ride worth it? Yes, every bit of it. I was active on KHV around the same age you are now, and while I did want to meet up with a lot of my friends, my parents had a lot of reservations as well. In this situation it really does seem to just be a case of waiting until you're a bit older, because yeah, parents will be cautious about the internet. What I found that worked pretty well was that after I told my parents about KHV, I mentioned things about the friends I wanted to meet up with every so often. Funny things, little details, stuff like that. Just so my parents sort of got to "know" the friends beforehand. Things like Facebook don't hurt either, if parents see that the person is real (proof via their wall, photos, etc.) they may be more willing to let you go meet the friend(s). It can be awkward to tell your parents about KHV/whatever website applies for you at first (unless they already know), but if you really want to meet up with said person, I'd say start with that and then move from there. You may have to wait another year or two until your parents feel more comfortable with you/them knowing the person, which really does suck, but if you're really good friends with this person it will be worth the wait, believe me. Good luck. :]
Wherever You Are ~ ONE OK ROCK
Aw come on guys, I hate it when the delivery boy gives me watermarks instead of pizza too.
We got hacked again, essentially. Not exactly as bad as last August, but still hacked.
It's been a bit of a long day for all of us, please don't cause any unnecessary headaches for us (goes for all of you). I know it's just messing around, but last thing we need to day is a war of some kind.
I miss you. :c
Yeah, guess I got that going for me. xD Thanks :] Fires without me starting them? BLASPHEMY. Also you might want to get that papercut checked out dude, I think the blood's starting to soak through everything. Congrats. 8D Did you leave the sandwiches out again? Yep, we had about five of the ten days together I believe. Ah hell, more fresh blood. :c Thanks, it was. xD Shouldn't have let Oprah near the bees' hives again bro. B| drink moar Really fantastic, seeing Dark of the Moon several hours early was also pretty great. xD Plane ride wasn't too bad either, despite the six/seven hours the airline I flew on had a ton of free full-length movies for passengers so I caught up on a lot of films I missed. :3 Awesome, as previously stated. :'D And that's good, lol. Also true. @_@
So I'm back from my trip, probably the best one of my life. :'D Though my laptop completely died while I was away and the hotel lied about free internet. Isn't that lovely? How've you all been?
I was up at 4 aww yeah gonna drive to the airport now so I will possibly see you on MSN tonight if the time difference doesn't kick my ass. 8D
Excellent, thank you. I'm sorry I keep dumping it on you btw. D: I will now proceed to get two hours of sleep
Yo, can you run QT till I get back fully? Since you already know how to do it, lol. If you can't that's cool too. :3
By the time you read this tomorrow I will be on a plane bored out of my mind. I will see you Saturday <3
casually posting to subscribe to thread before I leave for England
@Misty - the image was actually black and white to begin with. jojoj13 - Really love the colors in it. Honestly can't find a problem with anything in it. -dinamplified - I like the effects you used, has sort of a vintage feel to it. Overall very nice. Wolf Haley - Pretty much what Reptar said, lol.
Final Fantasy VII -> Tifa is a vinyl fan
I'm gonna be away for a bit - life stuff mostly, graduation, trip to England, freshman orientation at college, etc. Given that I probably won't be on KHV much, but I'll probably come on every few days to check messages or do staff stuff. More likely staff stuff than not, lol. Though while I'm in England I may not come on at all and neither will Fayt, depends how busy I'll be but my PMs and VMs will be staying open. And whoever has me on MSN or Facebook or Tumblr will probably see me around too. S'yeah, I'll be fully back online in about two weeks, see ya then. :]
