Hmm... I suppose so, but personally, I'd rather look more dainty and feminine. Ah, don't worry about it. It was high time I got out of there anyway. ^^ Yes... Kitties are such a perfect package of destruction. You almost feel bad about scolding them. And yeah, it's a pain to have to keep batteries around for the Wii... Probably should invest in some rechargeable ones. They make a platform type of thing that recharges your Wiimotes too. My little cousins have one, but you have to keep the Wii on for it to work. :/ Yeah, she has. My parents got me Skyward Sword for Christmas too, though I still have to get a Wii Motion plus in order to play it. I was surprised at how much stuff I got: Pajamas and a fuzzy robe, socks, iTunes gift card, Skyward Sword and new bedsheets. ^^ Plus, my awesome drawing that you did. :3 I couldn't get into Paprika either. It certainly looked very interesting, and had pretty rave reviews....but I dunno. Maybe I'll give it another shot soon. Only made it to some parade part before I turned it off. As for other films, I still recommend Tokyo Godfathers. It's more slice of life (about hobos!), and has a nice holiday vibe to it. Millennium Actress is another film he's done, though I can't give an opinion about that one. He was also the mind behind the anime series Paranoia Agent. If you want a mindf*ck, then that will surely do it for ya. Mmm, yeah. He had very distinguished-looking eye lashes. I'm no character designer, but I associate longer lashes with more feminine characters. *shrugs* Ah well. Thank you~ It turned out to be pretty enjoyable, though a couple of my family members are catching some kind of sickness. Hope it doesn't spread through everyone living here. ^^; Hope you had a very enjoyable Christmas as well.
Aww...when you got tough looking shoulders that means you probably got more potential to be tough though, right? Oh, so you don't have a job anymore? I'm really sorry, Dodie. *hugs* I hope you aren't feeling too terrible because of that. Hehe, damn kitties, huh? They're naughty but too cute not to forgive. <3 OH, there are battery operated ones, huh? That sounds like a nusience (can't spell xD). Haha, aww..it's nice she offered even though she really objects to them. The only ones I've seen are Perfect Blue and Paprika (Didn't like Paprika). Do they have many films out? Her mum was horrible...there are parents out there like that though, right? Ew. :< It sort of reminds me of the film since it was hard to tell what was happening for real and what wasn't His eye lashes are kinda creepy for some reason too, right? xD Aww, I'm really glad you liked it! Heee, and that it made your day. :3 <3 I hope you're having a marvelous Christmas, hun! Like, the best EVER! *Christmas cuddles* Gotta make this a little shorter than intended, low on time and I wanna wish everybody a happy Christmas. But yeah...I hope you're having a super-fantastic one!!
I has no upper body strength... My legs are where most of my endurance comes from, as I'm sure it's that way for a lot of people who walk around a lot at their former job. SHE IS!!! And I can't get mad at her because she is just too adorable. She is diabolical like that.. >:3 Yeah, I got a battery operated one now, but now I go through batteries like nobody's business. Between that, my wii remotes and my wii balance board, I'm usually having to change some kind of battery before playing the Wii (which is part of the reason it's packed up). Heh, you're not the only one who was surprised. I think I looked at her in shock the first time she offered to run me to the store to pick up a game I was wanting. This was years back, I still get a little twinge of "Seriously?" when she offers. xDDD Hahaha. Nice mental image. Sweet~ Do you like any other films by Satoshi Kon? I still need to watch Paprika, but I loved Tokyo Godfathers. And I'm glad you liked Black Swan. ^^ I would have picked it as my favorite film of last year, but I only got to watch it earlier this year. It can still count though. :] Yeah, Natalie Portman's character was going through quite a bit of mental stress throughout the movie... Poor girl. Her mom was kind of creepy too. No wonder she was so repressed. Oh man. Now THAT was a good episode. It totally had me confused for a good while when Yu Narukami was going through his "disappearing social links" nightmare (or whatever it was). At first, I was like "okay, I guess it's not going to show the suspect getting captured... Oh nice, things seem to be returning to normal! Oh wait... Everyone is going their separate ways...NOOOO!!! Stay friends FOREVER!!!! " Then I was like, "oh yeah, it has to be just a dream." xDD Yosuke in with the save! :3 So, that was my overly long thought processes on this recent episode~ I do wonder what the significance of the "suspect's" other self just disappearing like that was though...and yes. His eyes seemed so strange to me as well. So large and dark... I think they're creepy because there are no irises. Wow! Wow! WOW!!! Thank you so much for the drawing! It's completely amazing~ You really captured the shape of his eyes very well, not to mention giving me a little bit of nice fanservice as well... Oh, hohoho.... :3 This really made my day, girl! I love it very much. <333
Heehee, it's kinda funny now that you mention it, you look probably about three times stronger than me, but you can't do many push-ups. x3 Yeah, you'll be real strong. ^^ Hehe, it does sounds like you have an especially destructive feline there. Naw, I don't think you did mention that, but that really sucks. :| Is it easy to get a replacement at least? The Wii sensor bar one is so slim and light, can kinda see a kitty attacking it. Oh dear, sorry to hear that.. :/ Surprising she'd offer to get them now, guess she just got used to the idea, huh? Naw, you're right. There's two. But where you go to grab your newly firmed up butt you only feel the one with your hands, unless you're very thorough at grabbing your ass. xD It's fine, takes a lot more than that to make me feel uncomfortable. You're totoally welcome for the advice. Oooh, I love Perfect Blue! One of the few anime film things I ever picked up on DvD! Thanks for recommending it though, definitely a good pick. And wow, Dodie...the Black Swan was AMAZING! Thank you very much for reccomending it to me! <3 Pretty unusual for an American film to be so slow in building it, really gripping stuff. The bits with the bloody nails and things were kinda hard to watch though, ha. Hope you enjoy it. :> His eyes are really scary in the anime for some reason, huh? x3 Hope you enjoy the kids thing as well. Guess it's better not to say more on it for now, no spoilers. Not sure if I'll be able to slip online tomorrow or not, so here ~ Imageshack - sephiroth1w.jpg Merry Christmas, Dodieeee! Did it for you last night. Stupid Imageshack insisted on resizing it, unfortunately. Hope you like it. Girl that does deserve presents.
A hearty hello to you as well. AGAIN! Yeah, I have a few "masculine" features that make me look strong (namely the jawline and shoulders). Kind of sad that I can only do like 4 or 5 pushups before I tire out. But like you say, just keep working at it, and I'll be in good shape. ^^ Well, she can think of less destructive ways to get my attention. Did I tell you that she ate the cord to my Nintendo Wii sensor bar? Took me ages to figure out why my Wii wasn't working, then I saw a chewed cord and was like ".. (-_-) ..." I didn't know cats liked chewing on cords until I got Molly. She LOOOOVES my iPod earbuds too. She is now, I guess. Not like she can do much to stop me anyway. When I was younger though, she'd have a habit of taking my games and hiding them if she thought I was getting to absorbed... :/ There's only one? I thought there were two. A gluteous minimus and gluteous maximus (or however they're spelled). Heh, I don't mean to make you uncomfortable, but I do appreciate all the advice. ^^ If you can't find Black Swan, you can also watch an anime movie called "Perfect Blue". It doesn't have ballerinas, but it does have a girl who was a former pop idol trying to make it as an actress. It's another psychological thriller type, and another film I highly recommend. I didn't know what to think of him, tbh. I just thought he was there to show that guys really like Yukiko, but she's kind of...repressed...about stuff like that. But yeah, he did turn out to be quite a creep. I'm about to watch the new episode now. Aw~ I read the description. Seems like it'd be a really good and heartwarming watch. I'll have to check it out soon.
Ahhhh, hello again. ^^ You look physically strong form your pictures somehow...if you keep up with the working out, you'll probably become mega strong. ^^ Aw, yeah, they do that stuff for attention. It's so cuuuuute! <3 Eeeeheee, aww. So your mum is cool with your gaming? You should totally mention one you want, it isn't like you get many chances at new ones. It feels funny when it gets tight, there's only one big muscle you can feel in your butt. xD Heehee, what a topic. Nope! But I'll be sure to try and watch it tomorrow, thanks. :> Haha "foofy frou-frou"? xD I HATE that guy, it surprised me when he didn't give me nightmares after he appeared in the game. That first time you encounter him in the game is HORRIBLE. He didn't seem as bad in the anime, then EW EW EW he looked scary last episode *shudders* Yukiko....she's lucky she didn't get raped or something. Anyways, it's online in English now, yay yay yay! :3 Uoi, you might be interested in this, but serious bubbles alert. I teared up a few times. xD Children Full of Life (1 of 5) - YouTube the whole thing is like, 40 minuets, but it's broken up into sections.
You know, I've never really been much into sports, but I get people saying that I look like an athletic type quite a bit. Maybe if I applied myself to some kind of something, I'd take to it pretty well. I don't like competing though... Yesh. She is a scratch-happy kitty. It's weird too, because she has all kind of toys of her own to claw at, but she loves to mess with my stuff instead. I guess because she wants the attention. She's starting to mess with my keyboard, and whenever I get it out, she rubs up against it constantly. Well, earlier today, my mom was like "Are there any games that you're needing?" and I answered no for some reason. She replied "I know of at least one that you want." (paraphrased...can't remember the exact words). Perhaps I'll get a game this year. ^^ Yay~! Tight booty, here I come! xDDD Ballet is definitely a lot of work. Have you ever seen Black Swan? Those girls were put through a lot of work to get ready for the part. They did a great job too. Also, very good movie. I highly recommend it. It's a psychological thriller type, so it's not just foofy frou-frou ballerinas dancing around. You know.. This is the first time that I have no idea what's going to happen in the next episode. I'm excited too. That one guy was creepy though. >< Poor Yukiko, and Nanako too. Glad the MC was there to stop the guy before he hurt her.
Aahhh, you'll be like one of those seriously sporty-looking types running down the pavements like that. ^^ Wow, she tore through your make-up cases? :s That's pretty impressive. We're thinking of calling the kitty 'Munch.' I hope it does make you feel at least a tiny bit better, saying stuff like you don't think you deserve presents at Christmas is pretty worrying... Hm, and maybe it'll happen faster than you think for you. You'll at least be able to feel your butt muscles getting tighter before you can see the results. Yeah...if somebody's butt was moving like that, then it would be kinda hard not to notice. Not long, it was only when my friend was able to go with me, but ballet just once a week seems to make for great exercise, at least it did for me. It's just for if you've been doing a fair amount, I think, but it is a good idea to warm down. :> Heeee, it's good to learn, isn't it? You're welcome, ma'am! :3 Aw, phew! You kinda scared me with that one, haha. Oh man, where is Persona Episode 12? It needs ze English already!
Running is definitely a good exercise. I think running in place takes more out of me though. Feels like I'm not really extending my muscles properly, at least when compared to a normal run. Ah well. When the weather gets good again, I'll have a few go's around the block. ^^ Kittens are indeed supremely adorable, but you're right about those darn claws. >< Molly was really scratch happy when she was tiny. The paint on my walls and makeup case have been torn to pieces.. Can't stay made at her though. :3 Thanks. ^^ Feels good to hear some encouraging words like that. Ah yeah... I forgot just how much body fat gets stored in that area. :/ Will probably be at least a few weeks before I see any result, but I suppose I should focus more on how it makes me feel. ^^ Seems less superficial. Hahahaha~! They'd probably wonder what I was doing looking at thier rear in the first place...but if it was just totally distracting, I suppose I couldn't really help it, eh? How long did you take ballet for? Warm down..? That's the first I've ever heard of that, but duly noted! Man, I'm learning so much. And thanks for the link! *bookmarks* Will definitely keep those in mind. Glad they're easy to remember too. ^^ Nooooo~ I actually woke up really early, and felt pretty good. Maybe my body is getting used to the new routine (about time!!!!)
It's good she's doing better. Shame things got to that state. :/ Winded? Wow...must be a really good exercise! Never knew it had things like that in, but it probably shouldn't come as a surprise. ^^; I kinda want a kitten just because they're so darned cute, but my parents want an adult since little kittens can't put their claws away and my parents are sissies. Full grown is fine with me though. Yeah, I think you're right about it being a prequel. Hmmm....you probably weren't so bad as you think. And it isn't really your fault, a lotta people do that when they're struggling. You still deserve presents, silly. <3 I hope you can forgive yourself, it is Christmas after-all, ya know? :> Hehe...^^; Hmmmmm, I never did them seriously/on a regular basis, so I couldn't say, sorry. :< However, since they are the most targeted butt exercise I can think of, it shouldn't be too long before it takes effect if you focus on 'em. Trouble is there so much natural fat on a ladies rear that it'll probably take longer than most areas to have results visible to others. If you flex/clench one cheek at a time that should help too. xD Imagine if you saw somebodies butt moving about when you were in public. My ballet teacher probably did it in public since she said it was okay. xD Yup! Definitely good to warm up first! Oh, and it's actually a good idea to do warm-down exercises afterwards too! To warm up you wanna just do some gentle stretching exercises. :> Try shaking your arms and legs a little when exercising too, it kinda re-jigs everything into place, I think. There's a bunch of warm-up's here ~ Warm Up Exercise & Stretching Warm-Up probably wouldn't bother doing them all. My favourite two are the Quadriceps Standing & Hand Down the Spine because they are easy, but you (or at least I do) feel a good amount of pull, so it's like you're still workin' it. B) My, were you up super later again? Dodieeeeeeeeee. :< Naw, maybe you were up mega early?
It's all good. Can't help those that don't want it. I think she's doing a lot better now, but I think that bridge has been burned too much to establish another friendship. I do wish her the best though. What's really fun is trying to find the little "easter eggs" while you're running. Mario icons and other such goodies. ^^ That's just the beginner run. There's an expert run that takes a pretty long time to complete. I forget just how long, and I've only done it one. Boy, was I winded after THAT one. ^^; Can't wait to see~ :3 Will you want to get a kitten first? Or do you not mind full grown ones? I think Human Revolution is a prequel, but yeah, it's the third one made, so you can still get away with DE 3 in my books. I haven't really been all that...nice...this year. Was struggling with some inner demons and took it out on those close to me. I'm just glad that I haven't completely effed everything up with them. And I'm slowly but surely coming around to feeling alright. The more productive activities seem to be helping. ^^ Yeah.. Wii Fit has some step exercises, but I didn't feel anything either....other than silly. Butt clenches... I can totally do that! Not that I'm impatient (yes, I am...), but how long do you think it'll take before I see some results? And lol @ jiggly butt in public. xDDD Yeah... Methinks that's something best suited out of the public eye. What do you do to warm up before you exercise? I hear it's best to do that so your muscles get ready for some activity, and it lessens the chances of hurting yourself too. Thanks~ Yeah, I thought it was nice to know that everyone has had setbacks. Makes me feel more okay with my...less than stellar performances (failure is just too strong of a word). I dunno why people feel the need to belittle others sometimes... Could be a jealousy thing, yeah. Or maybe they're just awful people who can't recognize when someone is a rare gem.
Probably for the best, people like that are just gonna bring you down with them if they can. Sorry about your friend though. Aw, they are kinda cute...seemed like a weird thing to say was cute, but they are cute. <3 Yeah, will send you pictures when we do get the kitty at any rate. <3 It's weird being without a cat, we've almost always had one. Ack, sorry. Pretty sure it's the third one in the series, but shudda thought about the title so not to confuse you if you didn't know that. >_< Oh, Dodie...why on Earth would you think that? Of course you deserve presents. Are you sure you're okay? :| Aeorbics steps are actuall supposed to be good for working the glutes, but can't say I've felt any pull there. Our ballet teacher (don't go anymore) once told us something though. If you just clench (is that the right word?) your butt muscles for a few seconds then let them relax again that will work it out. She suggested you can do it anywhere at ay time, but I think people might notice you butt move a bit in public. You're welcome. :3 it's always good to do exercises slowly because you're less likely to hurt yourself AND you get more benefit from it apparently. I guess because it's harder to keep holding a pose. Uhhhhhhhh....I feel funny saying this, but I'm sure both your chest and rump are perfectly nice/fine. ^^; Interesting video you posted on Facebook. Further proof that people talk a lot of shit. But why would they say that stuff? Did those teachers recognize their talents and get jealous or what? :s
Mmm... Yeah. I had a friend like that who seemed to thrive on misery... We aren't friends anymore. I just got sick of all the drama. Nah, it's just computer graphics. But they're cute to look at. Here's a vid if you wanna see: Wii Fit - Running - YouTube Oh nice. I think I'd like a randomized program as well. Keeps you on your toes as to what to expect. ^^ Well, maybe you can has a New Year's kitty instead. :3 Wow, you got a pretty nice haul. Took me a minute to figure out that Deus Ex 3 was Human Revolution. Never heard it called DE 3. And I don't know if I'm getting anything this year. Don't feel like I deserve anything, tbh. Yeah, I was doing them pretty fast. And the funny feeling didn't last long, so that's good. ^^ Thanks for the tips~! If you have any more ideas about working the buttocks, then I'm all for 'em. If I cannot have a nice chest, then by God, I'm at least going to have a nice rump! ><
Well...you hear about being enjoying being depressed for whatever reason (usually the attention, apparently), so even though it sounds bizarre, I guess people could enjoy being peeved a lot. Hm, it wasn't exactly supposed to mean that though, it's just something we say sometimes over here instead of "okay" with something. One of those little language quirks, you know? Thank you, I hope you & yours have a nice time this year too. Haha, is that right? Do they have real-life pictures pasted into the background, or something? With this game you see yourself (your avatar - which you can design) running with your teacher on a small track. Guess it gives some sense of competition, if somebody is beside you (real or not), then it appeals to your competitive nature. Makes it more fun. Hope there are more things like that. When you're doing the 9 week routine they pop up randomly, keeps it fun & stop it getting stale, ya know? There are these two sensors you strap onto yourself which seem to give the PS3 a really accurate idea of what you're doing. With the Move fitness game I got and the PS2 games it wasn't half as good at keeping track of you, naturally any exercise on the ground was a problem too, so that seems like something it should be credited for. A lot of people complained they couldn't get the sensors to work, though... My pops found out there's a cattery not that far from here, says we can visit after Christmas. So no Christmas kitty. My pah got me an exercise/aerobics step, they're actually pretty costly for a decent one. And my ma got me a new mobile (cell. I think they say "cell" over there instead?) phone. My bro said something about getting me Deus Ex 3 (PS3). What about yours? :> First time doing them? That's probably all it is...kinda...you're probably not doing them quite right if they're giving you a bad leg. Try to do 'em slowly, and imagine you're sitting down to get on a chair. Hope your leg gets better soon, honey. :<
Yeah... I don't think anyone would be happy feeling that way all the time...but people tend to surprise me, so I dunno. Hope it's a nice visit for everyone involved. ^^ Wow, sounds like you've really got a good plan for the next nine weeks. I like my running thing on my Wii Fit. It has some pretty neat-looking "scenery" to keep your attention while you're running in place. Does your thing have the same, or something similar? Well, maybe you can still get one and it can be a gift to yourself. :3 What did you get from your folks? ^^ I'm doing okay. Started back up on my own exercise routine after not doing so for the past four days... My right leg feels weird now, and I'm hoping it's just because I adding squats to my agenda. I'm about to finish up with some yoga moves. Other than that, not much else going on.
