RE: The OOC Couches

I didn't know it was getting popular, but I only know a couple words, like three or four.. I know much more German, as I took a year of it in school. I can even say "I am a dragon." in German.. heh, I wonder why I'd want to know that. .

As for the matter with my depression, I spoke to someone who knows him, and.. well.. I'm rather confused about the matter, but I'm feeling somewhat better. Still have no clue whether or not I'm gonna be able to talk to him again, he is/was the character's father (Even if it was just adoption, as also talked about on my site.), and the character I usually play feels like another part of myself, but it's complicated, and I've always had trouble explaining things, so I think I'll stop there. Sometimes I try to tell myself I'm just over-reacting, but then I wonder "How would I feel if I didn't feel like this?"..

Yeah, it's the current craze over all the anime.

Ooh! Dragons! Go on then, how do you say it? :P I wish we got taught stuff like that in our language clases. Instead of what you do at school, what chores you do at home... XP I learnt spanish and french, but I'm not very good at them.

Very glad you're feeling better. And its strange how if you play a charcater for a long while, they tend to get mixed up with yourself... I guess its because they always were a part of you, because they came from you, and you learn what they're like.

*chuckles* The more I learn about languages, the more I get frustrated at how I can't express myself as well as I would like. I'd like to learn a really ancient language, where they still had several words for different aspects of one of our words. And then there are people who can't express themselves at all, and tend to swear waaay too much to try and compensate... XD

Oh, I forgot, schools out!

I had my last day of school ever today... kinda the end of an era, I'll never go to there ever ever again. Strange.

So looking forward to college. *nod*

"Ich bin eine Drache." would be "I am a dragon." I'm not really depressed anymore, but I'm stressed.. I think I'm going to go work on my website some, try to take my mind away from things..

In my German class, they taught culture isntead of just the meanings of words.. for example, they refer to night as the time at which they sleep, so if you ask "What are you doing tonight?" they're going to respond "Sleeping." or something like that.. I like German, too bad I don't know more of it.

Hah-ha! Cool! ^^ Its funny the way some words are so similar to english ones, and some so completely different... ><

Thats good news... and bad at the same time... XP Meh, hope things calm down a bit for you soon. Heh, I should probably update this place too... The layout's looking a bit icky.

Wow, that's much better. Words without context don't mean anything, so I'm surprised more schools don't do that. I know a little tiny bit of spanish culture, eg:" tarde" refers to late afternoon and evening, not just the afternoon, and that you're expected to serve a year in the army/community service, but thats about it...

Sheesh.. I'm exhausted.. my computer died, and I sat here for about eight hours trying to get it to work again, with the help of my brother. He figured out the problem, and we managed to fix it (by reinstalling Windows, as the problem made it so that we couldn't even log on in safe mode. >.

O.o
wow, eight hours...

Glad you've got it fixed though! And have you got a bank holiday today? Hope so, then you can just crash after all that ><

At least re-instaling window worked; once our computer broke really bad, so even that wouldn't work. Not good.

So, yeah, happy bank holiday everyone!

Sorry I wasn't here for a while, I was moving my computer into the basement, where it's much cooler than the basement.

What, may I ask, is 'blank holiday'? I've never heard that term before.

Where it's cooler in the basement than what? *chuckles at the typo* Eh, you've had alot of computer trouble lately, hope everything's sorted once and for all! ><

Bank holiday... hmm, no you probably won't have heard of it, sorry, I didn't think! It's an English term for a holiday on a monday, that everyone gets. The whole country! ^^ They're on set days each year, and are on things like summer solstice, and christmas and boxing day, stuff like that.
