Sana makapunta...
Hirap maging bata...

Good-luck meeting each other. I hope it doesn't rain.

And shoujoboy, don't make kawaiihime04 mad. She's a bit snobbish.
Sorry about what she did. But you also were wrong to post that comment. It's a bit rude.

Good-luck guys!
Tatakas ako sa bahay para makapunta

App. how much is the entrance fee?

Ganun nga, takas ka sa inyo para makapunta ka! hekehek! para pag-uwi mo nakaabang na yung sinturon ng daddy mo!

entrance fee? between 75-100, di pa final e, pero mas maganda kung may budget ka sa tiket na 120 below para sigurado.

Quote by BizarreOne thing's for sure... Suzaku is an idiot; he's a fag.

I agree. he should die. >=0000000~~~~~! Lulu ftw.

I'm currently watching:
Code Geass R2
Vampire Knight
Kanokon

CCxLulu is the ONLY pairing I support. I hate most of the other characters. XP

now now, I'm sure being humans NO ONE (including women) would want to be treated as trash.
I believe only masochists would actually WANT that.

now regarding about their relationships with men. I have no idea about that.
I personally wouldn't want to stay with someone who hurts me. NO WAY!

IMO, girls fall in and out of love slowly. They may not want to let go that easily hence they allow men to do these things. Since women are practically beings of emotions, they'd get hurt most if they'd let go.

Quote by Morthi like anime just like my life: dark, sad, lonely...cold

you're quite emo.

I want my anime to be meaningful. Something that feeds my brain.

I use Firefox for the plugins but Opera is relatively better.
They passed the Acid3 test! ^_^ Opera ftw.

Lucy ftw~!

in a more comedic side, Kaoru Kamiya. :3

imppy! well girls are usually like that.
they make a big deal out of anything +___+
if you can't remember anything, it must be something shallow
or you need to drink memory enhancers

malay mo, she's just making papansin. :>

haha. kapamilya.kabarkada.kabayan << ABS yan lahat ahihihi~

Quote by JinmbegoLOL I think I need 2 find out about her cuz I have the same name as her... *sweatdrop* OmG same bloodtype! Yeay! Ahaha

lol. you should sing and play the guitar too!

i'm still 16!~ maybe there's hope? bwahaha! *keeps dreaming* ><

Quote by 09Chiaki09I so totally love ROLLING STAR! Well, I like songs dat rock. And her voice is so sweet.
I jus nvr get bored listening to it...
Um... I think she's a bit cool though, i rarely see her smile. But she's still cute anyway...

you should watch her laugh! it's the most adorable thing ^_^

Quote by beyondmeasureAt Rolling Star, she sings like she has a number of clamps in her throat.
Which is absent at CHERRY and LIFE.

yeh. but probably because of the pitch =)

you've gotta admire that ;p

i think a 2nd season would be nice

they should introduce rin and the chicken in the anime too XP

Rin X Haru ! ^^

the manga is finished and kyou ended up with tohru

yuki. . is mine! kyou definitely deserves tohru

i loved math. now, i miss it.

it's YUI's latest single which will be released at september 5 (so says the net )

it's really nice, with very powerful vocals!~ ^_^

my favorite song from her is Rolling Star. It's really different when she has this powerful effect with such a small voice.

it's a whole other story to listen to goodbye days after watching taiyou no uta. it can really strike you.

her other mild love songs are calming, good, yet still it can't reach the top of my list

i am currently addicted to her "Love & Trust "
it's a love song, delivered with such force and impact yet still preserving her cute and innocent small voice.

@ keye: she has her own languange? heheh

i uberly love her! still addicted. -and forever will be- ü

original of course

it's Yohko Isuzu.

According to an interview with Mitsuo Fukuda, her name is derived after the Japanese word,kagaribi (a watch fire or a bonfire).

Athrun or Asuran in japanese means "daybreak" or "dawn" which refers to his love, Cagalli in multiple ways. For example, Cagalli's last gundam she gets in Gundam SEED Destiny, Akatsuki. Akatsuki is also another expression for dawn. Also the resistence group Cagalli joins is known as the Desert Dawn. Also the company that built the original 5 Gundams (Aegis, Strike, Buster, Blitz, Duel) is named Morgenroete and is based in Orb. Morgenroete is German and means dawn too. We see again, Mitsuo Fukada, the creator of Gundam SEED, always thought those two as a couple too

hotohori or amiboshi. if i were her, i'd pick either of them..!

i think i prefer takiko more.. because she as a person is stronger than miaka.
miaka's story is more of romance and stuff..
