Ima go with....It's too early to REALLY tell, so Ima say Nagis, cuz he's already been voted for a few times. **hugs** Sorry. Just doing it for the sake of the game. There's so many people this time. | |||

I just watched it today as well...and...I LOVED it!!! I was a BIG fan of Transformers as a kid, cuz my brother-in-law was into it and whatnot. But anywho...there are however, a few ways that I could pick the movie apart. Some technicalities and whatnot...I don't mean picking things out as far as comparing the movie with the original animated series, just things within this movie alone, if that makes any sense.
However, those things were able to be easily set aside and I enjoyed the movie thoroughly. And I'm sorry, but I LOVE Shia LeBeuf(sp?) I dunno why. He's just got such a charming personality. |

Holly was still confused, by the time the helicopter lifted off away from the Marinae base. From the moment Seifer finished looking through the papers, everything seemed to turn from calm to urgent.
(Assuming you didn't make Henry stay at the base) She did, however, sit glaring, with her arms folded across her chest. Her blue eyes were narrowed into a glare at her father. "You should have stayed, Henry." She mumbled. |

I actually cried...like seriously cried.
It just gets to me...harming children in any sort of way is one of THE worst things anyone could do. |

I have to be careful with energy drinks. While I've still managed to dogde full-blown diabetes, energy drinks will push my sugar over the edge. That depends on what I've eaten/drank throughout the day though.
I've been drinking energy drinks a lot more than I used to though. I gotta say I'm like Kyoku on this one though. Caffine never really made me hyper or anything. It actually made me sleepy more than it would keep me awake. But I dunno why, even as a REALLY young child, I had pretty much good control. If I didn't want to be hyper, it didn't matter how many pixie sticks they gave me (my sisters have experimented, so they would know better than I would.) and if I was hyper and didn't wanna be anymore, or was told to calm down, I would come down right away. So for me to be uncontrolably energetic, it takes a lot. Oh, but when I do have energy drinks, I prefer Monster. So far it tastes better than any other I've had. |

I hope you all are just as shocked as I am, because apparently, I am pregnant. According to my family. I know young pregnancies are a serious thing, so I don't mean to mock that particular subject, but I was hoping to convey some of the shock and disbelief I'm feeling right now.
Of course, since there's been other shit going on, that I'm not going to be emo and bitch about at this moment (though I may turn Emo later) and I'm just plain stressed and worn out, and my family is now making an obscene assumption that I can't convince them otherwise, I am poking fun at their stupididy, not the subject of teenage pregnancy. (I said I wasn't going to be Emo at this current moment...Cynical is a more appropriate word, however.) Hell, last time I had sex was over a year ago, for one...and another, I have my fricken period! Sorry if the bluntness offends anyone...but...grr...they're assuming that I'm pregnant because A) They said I have been suffering from some serious mood swings...which I have, but for obvious reasons! Project 13 posted an article in General that I can't help but smile at. People do have reasons for feeling sad, and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with them. B) They're all claiming that for the past few weeks, with the exception of the last few days, I have been all "glowy", like my skin tone and stuff....(I drink a lot of water, so that's the reason for the nice skin, damn it!) **shrugs** So women are "glowy" when they get pregnant? Wtf is that? O_o C) The other day my sister came in the bathroom RIGHT after I did, so the numbers on the scale were still on, and she saw that I had gained some weight...now this was two days before my period, that's how I know I'm getting it! I gain about 5 pounds the two days before it, lose 2 when I actually get it, and then lose the last three after my second day! Apparently they've been a bit concerned because they see that my body has been changing lately too...It happens! A woman's body changes every seven years! It's been seven years since I started the whole period thing! And yes, I'm finally growing out of my little girl body and am gaining a slight figure! Lesse...oh, and I'm gaining more muscle. So yes, I look a little different. Nothing enough that you can see in a picture though, but enough if you're in person and you've known me for a few years. Why am I going through all this detail? Because this is what's going through my mind, and I need to try and get all these facts out there and I need some opinions. Is my family fricken insane right now?! Or am I nuts for thinking THEY'RE nuts?! I just...don't know what to do with them. For once, I'M fine. I'M doing good. I'M having a BLAST at work, I'm getting excited about the academic changes I am about to make, I've been feeling good about myself...having a bit of "guy" trouble right now, but I've been through worse, and it's not even major dude problems...I got myself in order. I got all sorts of priorities straightened out, and they're all within my reach. But, then, shit hits the fan with the family. Shit that has nothing to do with me actually, with the exception of one issue, but that will be fine. So, my family has gone nuts, and they're all cornering me, trying to find something wrong with me. I have a BIG family, and more than just my immediate family is doing this to me, so it's REALLY getting to be overwhelming. Heh...for once I'm fine...and yet I think things are crazier than they have been since...ever. O_o But yeah...nothing I'm saying is convincing them...they think that I'm scared and just trying to pull away from them because of that fear. ugf ldsyciknld It's REALLY pissing me off...and confusing me. **takes a breath** Sorry. I HAD to get all this out. |

That was a few days ago. I'm actually on my second day and all 5 pounds I gain are gone. XD Also, my sister, she had her period the first three months of her pregnancy....either that or something was wrong...they're insisting on not believing ANYTHING until I see a doctor. None of this makes sense to me.
I hope no one is mad. FX said it was mean. I wasn't trying to "prank" anyone to sit and go "Haha." I just...It's really difficult to explain just how confused and shocked I am right now, with just words. Like, I've been "confused" and "shocked" before...but so far, this takes the cake. And those simple words don't do the emotion justice. |

Lol. Yeah, I know. :p Nothing shallow about it. Ha. I just haven't had time to devote to a serious relationship like that. I'm not as prudish about sex as I used to be either...but I still couldn't sleep with someone unless there was SOME kind of spark, ya know?
I don't know what's going on. My one sister, the one who just HAD a baby, she'll be 18 in September...she just faked a pregnancy for attention...and my other sister, who won't be 16 until August just had a miscarriage (her situation is horrible though and undeserved, I'll leave it at that...) Venting did help, A LOT. S'been a while since I truly vented. I've been so caught up in trying not to focus on the bad and just focus on the good, and for the most part it's worked. It just kinda hurts more now, I was doing so good, so the fall was further than it usually is. Thanks for listening. Its really meant a lot right now. For now I'm just going to ignore them. They keep hugging me, doing the whole "everything is going to be alright" and the more I fight it, the more concerned I get. Besides, I need to see a doctor anyways. Nothing's wrong, just a check up on the whole cyst situation from a few years ago. =/ |

It's already been said, but that's really cool that you went and asked her anyway. You're such a cool person, Danny, I admire that. You're still upbeat about the situation. As long as you get over being afraid of making the first move (for both guys and girls. Guys don't always have to make the first move) you'll end up just fine. And from what it seems, you've already gotten over the hard part. | |||

Name: Nina Chiodetti
Age: 21 Appearance: Standing at 5 feet even and weighing in at 110lbs, Nina couldn't lie about her Italian heritage even if she tried. At its palest, her skin is a creamy white, but she tans well. While not quite black, her dark brown hair is long, thick, and poker straight. For the most part, Nina dresses the same. Black miniskirts, white button down tops, and heels of about three inches. Old Job/New Job: Before: Law student/intern and bar maid on the side. After: She still bartends. Afterall, people need to wind down and relax still. Nature: Adamant, Sarcastic, Bold History: Nina's family migrated from Italy long before she was born, even though she was born in Italy herself. When her mother was well enough after giving birth, Nina and her parents returned to the States, but she visited Italy as often as she could. She did not learn the Italian language fluiently, however. Her family had blended in with the country well, and her family back in Italy spoke broken English. Nina didn't have a particularly interesting or rough lifestyle. Being as both of her parents are full-blooded Italians, she grew up around a large family, both immediate and extended. She herself is an only child, however. Being as she was an only child, her mother and father taught her how to speak up for herself. It was that bold attitude that led to her entering law school. Truth was, she didn't know what she wanted to do with herself. Becoming a lawyer was interesting enough and it was something she was told she would be good at. There was no real pressure for her to take that certain path, which is probably why she was doing so well with it. Of course, school wasn't cheap, which is what led to her evening job at the bar. |

Nina ran a steady hand through her slightly knotty hair. Her olive eyes narrowed as she surveyed the crowd. Her black heels clicked beneath her as she walked along the marbled floor. Luckily, she was able to find her usual customers safe and sound. Afterall, the clique that frequented her bar were like family to her.
After letting out the breath she held in, she continued to survey the room, until she spotted two men walking into the bank after a bunch of the passengers from the bus. Upon seeing them, she strode directly to them. The only thing that detered Nina from her objective was the sounds coming from the outside. For a moment she froze until the first wave of noise settled a bit and then continued on her way. "How long do you think it'll last this time?" She asks, gently placing a hand on the older man's shoulder. |

Yah, or at least post more at a time. I can understand doing it this way. I did the awards once. A lot of work goes into it, believe it or not, so why not celebrate the hard work by prolonging it slightly? **shrugs**
Slightly though...meaning, a little more than three categories at one time. Lmao. Oh, and Um...Holy shit. The best female thing...this would be like me winning an oscar over Steven Speilberg, my fricken idol. I learned it all from Rogue. <33 Edit: but, tehcnically, she won best overall member...so...**thinks** (Last edited by Katana on 07-26-07 02:04 AM) |

When the man grasped his chest, Nina froze. Then was pulled back to normal as the man's son, Church, lept over the desk. She gave him a slight nod, to let him know she would stand by the old man. Whether he caught it or not, she didn't care.
"Sir, if you don't mind, I'd like to keep you away from the entryway and get you somewhere comfortable." She says, gently placing her hands on his shoulders to lead him away from the door and support him should he need it. Just as she did so, before she could even attempt to get him to move along with her, Nina froze yet again. Time seemed to stand still. Nina closed her eyes, her entire body stiff. Despite the chaos around her, it was almost as though she was underwater. She could hear her own sounds, but everything else around her seemed slow and silent. Every other sound but her own breathing ceased. Then, it all came flooding back to her, in one big shiver, starting from the base of her spine to the back of her neck. She let out a gush of air as though she shiver had knocked the wind out of her. Then, she began to hear the sounds from outside. The gunshots, the shouting. Nina turned sharply to the old man. "Who is this 'he'?" she asked, trying to gently nudge him further from the entry way. |

Nina did not follow anyone to saftey. She couldn't help but follow the old man. Afterall, she felt obligated to care for him. She was very fortunate thus far, even after the disaster, to have always had someone to catch her when she fell, and Nina would be damned if she allowed anyone to be harmed if she could help it.
Her strides were quick and deliberate, as she weaved in and out of the people who hurried in the opposite direction. She moved with such grace and percision, despite the heels and despite the fallen debris, that she didn't think the old man even knew she was still behind him. However, she haulted to a stop as they were completely outside of the bank. Everything was much worse than she had imagined. Then, the old man was gone. No longer in her sights. "Shit..." She mumbled under her breath as she ducked behind a nearby fallen piece of rock. She clung tightly to it and braced her forehead against it as the demons swarmed over her. They were on the hunt. Too busy to notice her. Every once in a while the ground would stop shaking and she took that opportunity to glance around from the rocks. After taking a few glances, Nina finally spotted the old man, speaking to another figure. That must be him... she thought, an eerie chill shooting down her spine yet again. With a shudder, she escaped the feeling, but could not take her eyes off of the old man and the figure, soon to be recognized to her as "Cain" and "Arc". "You can't just leave him!" Suddenly, Nina was to her feet. Her face was red, she had shouted so loud. Her hands were balled into fists at her sides. She had only met the old man moments ago...she didn't even fully understand how she felt. She just knew something was stirring and she couldn't hold it in. She had no idea what the hell this "Cain" person was, but she was angry. And not afraid to show it. Her olive eyes narrowed into a glare as she stared defiantly into Cain's direction. |

Nina shot her glare from the two men to the cause of the sudden obstruction in her path. She opened her mouth to speak. Afterall, keeping quiet wasn't something she was good at, not when she was fired up as she was at that moment at least. However, her words were replaced by a gasp as she was suddenly lifted off the ground and tossed over Chris' shoulder.
"What the hell is your problem?! We're all already fucked! Running won't do us any good." She exclaimed. Rather than allow herself to slump over his shoulder, Nina had herself propped as upright as she possibly could, without tripping them both. For a few moments she struggled to free herself but then just gave up. She relaxed, resting her elbows on the top of his back, near the shoulder, and and placed her chin on top of laced fingers. She stared in Cain and Arc's direction for as long as they were in her view. Something seemed wrong...but there was something different attached to this feeling that Nina couldn't shake. |

I'm pretty sure we're following the group. **shrugs**
And it's my fault too. I knew they weren't there anymore, but between two of my posts, a lot happened, so I tried to like, not ignore it. :p I have a tendancy of not effectively expressing that there are things that my character noticed and reacted to that have already happened and I make it seem like it's still happening(if that sentence made any sense O_o). Sorry about that guys. Anywho, soon as I get a chance, I'm going to do something to get your charrie with us, if you don't mind, Makura. **shrugs** Like, so far everyone has someone to interact with, and it's a bit of a personal pet peeve of mine. I HATE being the guy in the beginning that doesn't have anyone to interact with, so like my first 20 posts are just me doing something and then all of a sudden "Hey guys! I'm here!" So I try not to let that happen to other people in RPs too. Unless this is how you want your character to be for now, then that's different. **shrugs** I just dun want you to be left out. |

I really can't offer much advice since I'm on the other side of the country, and I really didn't do much research of schools on the West Coast. I would have LOVED to head over there for film, but even with scholarships and such, I would never be able to cover any additional costs. The scholarships I earned only covers tuition for the most part anyway.
However, I dunno, I guess I'm kinda going through the same thing you are right now. I just changed my major and I am enrolled in a community college and will transfer out. (Though since I changed my major, I have to stay a tad bit longer, but my transfer agreements have to be made and decided by this year, due to scholarships and such) Point is, it gets overwhelming doing this by yourself. So if that becomes a problem for you too, I dun mind talking with ya about it. Besides, just in case you do decide to look here on the East Coast, I'll do whatever I can to go about getting information for you. Since I go to a community college, it's not hard to find any information on the schools over here. |

I've actually been trying to find a scheduel to exercise. I don't wanna lose weight or anything like that. I'm just happier when I'm active. Exercising just puts me in a better mood. When I do it first thing in the morning, I'm in a good mood all day. When I do it at night (Just simple things and stretches then though) my body winds down and I sleep better. There's medical explanations for all that, but merh. It's summer. I'm in stupid mode, so I don't feel like explaining.
There's this book that I'm looking into though, "The Abs Diet for Women". Usually I think them dieting books are overrated, but my sister saw this one and said that I should read it. I like the approach. It's about being healthy, not fitting society's definition of perfection. It actually spends a good portion of explaining the body, how the exercises work, stuff like that. It talks about the kind of food to eat, not what "not to eat", gives kickass recepies, which I have already messed around with making, gives advice on different exercises...**shrugs** It's just really cool. I don't get the usual superficial air that I usually get from that stuff. I've been gaining weight though, actually. I used to be 105lbs, never went over, except for that "time of the month", and lately I've been nearing 120lbs. That was the minimum weight for ice hockey, and they always made exceptions for me. Before now, I couldn't go above 115lbs for my life, no matter how hard I tried. But then again, technically I was 15 when I first got my period, and by then I wasn't really playing hockey anymore, and that shit effects a woman's weight. So now, I'm gaining all sorts of muscle and weight along with it. I'm actually pleased with it because physically, I feel really good about myself lately, and I just look better than I used to. So I guess about 120 is my ideal weight. **shrugs** I'm not that tall (Yes, I've finally admitted it) and while I don't consider myself to be tiny, doctors say I wouldn't be considered a medium frame either. It's all about how the body is. Anywho, as for what kind of exercises? Well, I have a lot of lower body strength. I can't sprint for shit, but I am an excellent endurance runner. I don't run though. I power walk. I do it for like a half hour to an hour at least twice a week, and during the winter I'll prolly just do it once a week, if that since I go ice skating a lot during the winter. Since I was goalie, nonetheless, during my hockey days, I have no problem regaining my leg muscle. I've just been wanting to focus on my upperbody. I'm gaining muscles in my arms, but right now, since I'm just getting them, if I'm not flexing, it doesn't look like muscle...and I have a tummy that I'd like to try and get rid of. Just to see what happens. I've been doing crunches a lot lately. I do four sets of 20 now. I've been doing crunches off and on for months now, so that's why I can do so many now I guess. But, the tummy isn't going away. I really don't know that much about exercise and what to do and stuff...so any advice would be kickass actually. Crunches haven't been helping my lower tummy...and I can't do a full situp for the life of me. |

Nah, didn't come across as rude. Teehee. I tend to just talk and go off in many directions. XD I have a bigger ribcage too, so a flat tummy isn't ideal for me. I remember my school nurse poking my tummy in high school and telling me not to turn into one of them bulemic chicks and think there's anything wrong with the tummy. I told her that I wouldn't. When my tummy is completely flat, I look extremely unhealthy.
However, I had some issues for a few years with a cyst and that made my tummy even bigger. So kinda like "baby fat" I guess? I dunno. :p If you gotta starve yourself a little to get it though, then no way. I love food way too much! Haha. |
