Ehmm... I'm pretty lazy, but when I really want to get something done, I won't let anything get in my way. But it's not really that I'm lazy, it's just that I don't really want to do things I don't want to do. There's a differnce. I try to be different - not your normal asian. I tend to be into stuff that not alot of people are in to. I try to stand out. I try to be funny.. and not, then you don't have a good sense of humor. I do crazy things and try to have fun, no matter what I'm doing. School or work or just hanging around with some random people, I try to have fun. If things are too plain, I try to stir up some trouble. I'm pretty outgoing at times but when I'm tired, I just don't care. I like to chew straws and tap on things with my fingers.

Speaking of my fingers... they're never still, they always have to be doing something - tapping on desks, twirling pens, playing guitar, trying to make weird shapes. I can't sit still at times... I like to sing... even though I can't hit the very notes, but I like to try. I like to make up stuff and drum along with it with my fingers and feet. As you can tell, I'm one of those music freaks. I like listening to music because most of it's emotion - either through the lyrics or just the music itself. You may be wondering how the music could be emotional without the lyrics. Well... if you're into music as much as me, you'll understand. I tend to listen to a lot of Japanese music. I don't understand what they're saying most of the time but I still love it. I think I like it more than American music. It's just so different. I like Jrock (The Pillows, Go!Go!7188, Asian Kungfu Generation, Shaka Labbits, Ellegarden) cuz it's just so wild. Makes you wanna sing along and bob your head. I also like Visual Kei (Dir en Grey, Malice Mizer, Due le Quartz) because I find it very unique and facinating. Some of you might not even know what Visual Kei is and when you see pics of it, you'll be like "Eww..." but trust me, you can't judge a book by its cover. VK music is so crazy and dark. All the instrumentalists are so good. I dunno, but if you listen to their stuff, you might like it. I also like classical music and stuff with piano ("For Fruits Basket" by Ritsuko Okazaki, "Fly Me to the Moon" by Frank Sinatra, "Canon in D" by Pachelbel) cuz they're soothing and emotional. Now don't me wrong, I still like American music, just not as much as Japanese music. I like to listen to alot of Emopunk bands (Weezer, Ozma, Yellowcard, Finch). The stuff they sing about are touching and the tunes are catchy. I'm not into the newer bands like Puddle of Mud or Nickelback or anything. Yeah, so that's about it for music.

I also like anime. So what's so good about anime? Well, what's so good about movies? The story, the music, the characters. It seems in anime, that everything fits in so nicely. And you don't have to worry about bad acting like in real life - just bad dubbing (if it's not in Japanese, that's why I prefer subtitles). It seems like in a lot of anime I watch, you get sucked in it. Like you get so attached to it because they develop the characters and the story so well that you've become a part of that series. That's why it gets so emotional sometimes. I dunno, it's hard to explain I guess. But my favorite types of animes are Romance/Comedy types (Fruits Basket, His and Her Circumstances) and some of the crazy weird funny ones (FLCL, Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Guu) and some of the action/adventure kinds (Cowboy Bebop, Noir, Naruto). I dunno, I just enjoy watching anime. Sometimes even more than movies.

Yeah so anyway, I use to skateboard. One of those skater kids, I suppose. Skated for 2 years straight, that's all we'd do back then - go skate, eat, play games, go skate some more. Just me, my bro, and a couple of friends. I remember we use to take the trucks off the board and play around with it on a trampoline. Heh... fun times. I started skating again for half a year until I sprang my ankle twice. It was bad. It was swollen as big as a tennis ball, but it was kind of fun for me because I got to use crutches for the first time and go around school with them. I remained using them even though I didn't need to, heh. I guess the teachers never caught on or they just didn't care. Either way it was funny when they see me running down the hall without using crutches. It was cool got I got out of class early and I got to go to lunch early as well.

Hmm... I also like playing games - video games, computer games, drinking games (hehe), card games, and I guess just any type. But I don't like playing single player games because you can't challenge any other person. I can stand some like the Final Fantasy series or any other game that has good gameplay and has a great storyline. Kinda like Grandia 2 - the gameplay was awesome, and the plot was beautiful. The depressing parts makes you actually want to cry. I dunno. I guess you can say I'm a competitive guy, but not to the point where I'll get mad when I lose, but instead I'll look back and try to figure out where I went wrong and fix it. I guess you can look at it as one of my strengths. Do what you gotta do, but live and learn. I hate bragging and people who brag. The only time I brag is when I'm playing someone really competitive and just want to push his/her buttons (and hope I don't get punched/slapped). I like Player vs Player games (Guilty Gear, SNK, Street Fighter, Marvel vs Capcom) cuz they seem so simple but there's a whole lot more to it than just button mashing. You gotta use techniques and strategies to beat your opponent. I hate playing people who suck. I mean it's great to show off but it gets boring. It's better to teach the person how to play and get better rather than beating them senselessly. I guess it's sort of like Chess. You have to develop strategy and plan ahead. Know what your opponent's going to do and be prepared for it. It kind of sounds like an Real Time Strategy game (Warcraft, Starcraft, Red Alert). Same principles here. I also like online RPGs (Diablo 2, Ragnarok Online) because you get to run around and Player Kill random people (hehe). There's a whole list of types of games like Counter-Strike, Mahjong, VC, and others that I won't get into.

Yeah, I also like to think when I'm bored. I think about stuff like what would happen if I had died, or what happens when one dies - where does your soul go? I'm not a very religous kind of guy. If someone wants to talk to me about religion, I know very little. I dunno, I guess I never really looked into that stuff. In case you're wondering, I'm not affiliated with any religion. I dunno... maybe if I think hard enough... I'll learn the secrets to the universe.
