Oh nice. ^^ I'm glad those movies were still enjoyable, plus you got to see young Keanu Reeves~ :3 I dunno if field hockey is a thing around here, at least not for people out of school. Participating in sports wasn't mandatory when I was in school. so I didn't participate, but that's changed a little since. Now, kids have to have some kind of physical type of activity in their curriculum, or they won't have the credits to graduate. I guess schools didn't care if my generation got lazy and fat. Yeah, I have a pretty fast metabolism, but I still keep an eye on what I eat. I haven't had fast food in Lord only knows when. I still crave it sometimes, mostly pizza. I think SotC precedes ICO, if fan theory is to be believed, but they're both really great, so whatever you wind up doing, it'll be wonderful. :3 I can always pop in the PS2 games to tie me over until I can get the PS3 collection, so no worries about me. I know what it's like to be super excited over something others might deem silly. I'm super excited for Batman: Arkham City. Once October gets here, I'll be giddy all the time until I get my hands on a copy! Youtube is being crabby to me, but I finally got it to load. Looks interesting. I like the visuals a lot. Very "Rez" like, which considering who created it, that was probably intentional. :3 Never played Rez before, but watched a few vids. Seems like it'd be a pretty tranquil experience. My username comes from my nickname that my youngest brother called me. He was born with Down's syndrome. When he says my name, it sounds like Dodie. The 16 came about because that's when I got my first online screenname, which was Dodie16 on AOL. So, I've kept this name (or some variation of it) for a looong time. x3
Aww, I wish you didn't have to know what it was like. Yeah, I was super impressed by that lady. I got to watch the first Back to the Future, and the Bill and Ted films again! It was a pretty good watch, cheers for reminding me they exist. xD People soon learn to be the ones running away from ME in field hockey. xD You should try it anyways if you ever get the chance, it is actually very fun. Didn't you have to do many sports in school? Aw, you gotta try Domino's as well! But Pizza Hut is super duper yummy too. <3 Gwah, you lve in heaven....xD Are you like meee, then? Fast metabolism? Yeah..I wish you could get to play them too. :/ At first I was gonna go with ICO to be orderly, but SOTC is supposed to have had a better job done on it, so I'm gonna beat the first colossi, then I'm gonna go back and play ICO....gawd...where is the post!? This is so sad, but I had trouble sleeping last night with excitement. xD I get over-excited about some odd stuff. At the end of the day, we have played these games before. You gotta look it up, it looks gorgeous, it looks like something on another level. It looks like one of those small, but special games. Child of Eden -- Launch Trailer [UK] - YouTube the trailer is misleading, you don't really get glowing hands. Sorry. Ah, that sucks you can't use on with your media player. :/ Hey, what inspired your username? ^^
No problem at all. I know how it is to lose a pet. Good on the lady for doing that too. I think most folks around where I live would have just assumed it was a stray, which is why I keep my cat indoors. She's not fixed either, so I don't want her going out and getting preggers. Oh, field hockey! Haha, that's awesome too, though I don't think I'd have the gumption to play that either. If I saw people charging at me, I'd run the opposite direction. I'm a lady of simple pleasures. x3 And yeah, we have Domino's, though I don't think I've ever eaten pizza from there. There's a Pizza Hut up the road from where I live, so my pizza usually comes from there. There's also a McDonald's, Taco Bell, and a sit-in restaurant called George's pretty close by too (within walking distance). I can't believe I'm not overweight or something from being so near those places. I used to live out in the countryside, so I know how it feels to live away from it all. Oh, man.. I'm jealous! Which are you going to play first? ICO isn't all that long, especially if you've played it before and know your way around the castle/puzzles. I haven't heard of Child of Eden, but I might look it up. Need to expand my gaming tastes anyway. I do not own a 360, because most games I've wanted are on the PS3 as well, and I thought getting a PS3 would be a much wiser investment. I would like to try out those Fable games though. I've used the youtube to MP3 converter for a couple of songs in the past, and I did like it, though my iTunes is pretty finicky about where songs go when I use it. But you are right, that it is a LOT faster to use than going through threads upon threads of links looking for what I want. I won't tell that you linked me music converters. :3
Thanks for being so understanding. The worst part is, the woman who brought her body by (who also saw it happen) seemed to think it was easily avoidable, and she was just hit in the side of the head which would seem to kinda back that up...:/ It was real decent of the woman to put her in a blanket and go about asking about whom the cat belonged to, though. Heehee, not that sort of hockey, sorry! The kind you play on a field. I'd fall on my behind too if it was on the ice. x3 Field hockey can be pretty aggressive too, though. I've dished out a few nasty accidental bruises to people in the past. >_< Oh, man...I'm drooling now, that's for sure. xD I never saw the first two foods before, but the last two look ultra yummmyyyyyyy! <3 Haha, I was expecting you to say something a little more exotic after seeing the pictures for some reason. Gotta love cheese burgers...and bacon cheeseburgers, gawd...sometimes I'd love to live closer to civilization. Just so I could go order things like burgers, I mean. Domino's don't deliver this far out either, boo. I think Americans get Domino's pizza as well (reason I used it in my example)? You have a unique way of getting inspired, I must say! I hope you do soon. It would be nice to see more of your art when you feel like it. Waahhhhh, me happy...ICO/SOTC should get here tomorrow/a day early. So pumped. I ordered child of Eden as well, but no word on that yet. Have you seen videos of it, or got the 360 version? It looks so purdy....<3 Do you have a 360 as well? I've got one, but I hardly touched in in a year. ^^; Aww, hehe, I'm sure you must still look young for your age if that's the case, though! Thank kew, I'm glad you're not offended. I would have been pretty bummed if you were. Oooh, you're pretty fresh, then. Not so internetted. Naughty girl. Think YouTube suckers are the way to go for nicking music. I like this one, it's web-based, pretty quick, and as far as I can tell it's clean YouTube to MP3 Converter - Video2mp3- Converter It's just faster to find what you want on YouTube. Uh, should I be writing this here? Maybe I should have sent you a PM instead. xD
It's normal to miss her. She was a part of your life and your animal companion for a long time. She was loved, and she'll be greatly missed. It's good that you're letting yourself grieve instead of bottling up those emotions. It's much healthier than the latter. Hockey, too? Wow. :3 I haven't watched much of it, but it seems like it'd be a tough sport to play. Players have to hit a tiny little puck on slippery ice while wearing immense padding and other players try to bash into them. >< I'd fall on my ass as soon as I hit the ice, though I suppose that's what practice is for! There's new pictures added daily on FPD, but you can click through the site as much as you want for a new picture. There's some ridiculously yummy looking food on that site, such as THIS, and THIS, and THIS, and finally THIS ONE. Your mileage may vary on those, of course. ^^ As for my favorite, oh geez... I love pretty much all kinds of food, though my favorites would probably come down to cheeseburgers, various Mexican food, and sushi (I don't get that last one very often though). Yep, pretty much. Just lay down and look up, and hope some image appears. Aww, thanks for offering~ but I'll eventually work through this block. ^^ I used to get mistaken for being quite a deal younger, but I suppose I finally aged up. I used to dislike it, but now that it doesn't happen much at all, I wish I could go back to having it happen. Heh... Fickle, fickle me. I'm not offended at all. You know what you like and don't like, and that's all that should matter. ^^ And I don't mind being called odd either. Aww... I'm sorry... I hope someday that you'll get back in touch with them somehow. It sucks to lose contact with a good friend. I've had computers since I was a teen, but it was for homework and such only. When I hit 22, I got my own laptop, and internet connection, so I started venturing further and further into the wilds of the 'net. Started getting into forums when I was 23, and call TFF my main one. I lurk in others, but only sign up if I have to (such as to view links for music downloads... Shhh! Don't tell anyone )
Hehee, maybe you really would...*sigh* I miss her already. Losing a cat seems to be harder than smaller pets. We've always had a cat, but the last one must been before I was 12 and he went off to die of old age, so it wasn't as bad. Oh, me too. But I do like to keep fit. Tennish and Hockey are the exceptions. Naw, it was last thing at night when I got your reply. Oh, love of food is something we have in common. ^^ Hahahaha! Food porn daily? xD Each day has different food porn? Do you have a favourite food? :3 Aw..It did sounds a little odd at first, but when you said it's textured, it made a lot more sense. So when you wanna get yourself to draw you have to lay on your back and stare at the ceiling? Kind of a strange image. Hm, I wish I could help. Yes and no. Even though they make me nervous easily, there is the odd person I'm totally fine with right away, and most people seem to think I'm cute for some reason. Maybe because i have a bit of a baby face still, and I'm pretty small. I still get mistaken for a high school kid once in a while. ;_; I dunno if I should say the other reason, or not...eh, I'm just gonna say it. I'm hardly interested in men, I can't imagine being able to get along with one romantically long enough to even think of a family. The longest relationship I had with a guy was two months. ^^; It's not that I'm bad with them, they just kinda get on my nerves/don't do it for me romantically (even though I do like their bodies *shifty*). I need somebody with pretty high emotional intelligence. Sorry if you're offended. Heh. That's great you'd consider adoption. I thought about it myself (for one day) too. You seem plenty memorable. ^^ I didn't mean to call you odd, sorry. Just it seemed odd. I didn't get my first PC until I was 17, then I did go kinda nuts with forums. Yes, I have seen a lot of them come and go. There are a couple I really miss, yes...miss one or two friends a great deal. How long have you been doing the forum thang?
I suppose that would make quite an awkward moment... I'd like to think that if I was in that situation, I would offer some kind of apology/condolences to the pet's owner, but you never know what you'll do until it happens. Haha, I really should sometime. Get off my lazy butt and get active. :3 As for sports, I'm not big on them, so I don't play anything. I am more of a solo-activity type of person. Did you get yourself something to eat? :3 I love food, and here's one of my favorite sites all about it. (warning: may cause intense drooling!) I listen to music all the time, and it does help, but I'm not really getting much inspiration from it atm. What usually inspires me is looking at my ceiling, as crazy as that sounds. It's texture-painted, so I let my eyes wander around it until some mental image appears and I try my best to scribble some kind of form up. I'm not getting much of anything out of it today though. I'd hate to say "never", but I don't feel a very strong inclination to have them, especially not now. I don't think I'm responsible enough to care for another life. "Doubt you'll ever get to have any"? Does that feeling stem from your nervousness? It's okay. There's still plenty of time before you even have to seriously consider if you want to start your own family or not, and even then, adoption is a great thing. If I do decide to raise kids, I would seriously consider that option before having my own. Well, it's good to be odd. It's more memorable and fun than being normal! Wow, you have a lot of experience with forums! So I suppose you've seen a lot of 'em come and go? Are there any that you miss? I would miss this place a lot if it went kaput. TFF is my second forum (a Sims 3 forum being my first), but this is the first one where I made friends. ^^
Thank you. No, they didn't....but I don't think many people would. :/ I hope you get the chance to, it really is a very fun sport, and great exercise as you say. You're right. It would be a great way to meet new people. I kinda really suck with most people offline, so it would help (I get nervous easily...). Are there any sports you like to play? Heehee, I never heard it said like that before. I like. You made me hungry. Thankies. Some music seems to solve that problem for me. What usually inspires you? Haha, never? 99% of the time I feel the same way, but when I was 24 I started thinking about it a tiny bit for the first time...but I doubt I'll ever get to have any. It's okay, I wouldn't mind if it was you stalking me anyway. It was just odd. That's cool you pay that much attention, you must be a smarty one. Heehee. Heh, actually I already look forwards to your replies, big sis. ^^ I've been a forum-dweller since I was 17, so I feel at home pretty fast if I'm gonna feel at home. ^^;
Oh my gosh... I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to your kitty... Did the driver get out of the car and apologize or anything? I'm glad you're feeling a little better, and got to vent out your frustrations. It helps to be able to do that. There are tennis courts at the park, but I don't own any equipment, and I'm not sure if there are any rentals around. Ah well. Maybe one of these days I'll pick some up and play an actual round or three. It'd be great exercise. You should join the club! I can understand about being shy though, but it sounds like a great way to meet people who enjoy the same sport as you. And yeah, cookout = BBQ ^^ Oh, yay~! Glad to hear you got some creative spark going. I'm feeling a little "blocked" myself right now though. Stuff I scribbled up just isn't doing anything for me atm... Maybe it's time to take a break for a bit. Not a problem. ^^ And yeah, my family is pretty big. My mom always wanted a bunch of kids, which is probably why I don't think I want any. Heh... Didn't mean to creep you out. I'm not a stalker, I just pay close attention. And I think I'm all guessed-out, because I can't think of anyone else that we would both know. D'aaww~ :3 *huggles back* And yeah, I was a little worried that I was pestering you too much, especially if you wanted to acquaint yourself with the forums, and you were stuck writing these VMs. Good to know that's not the case. ^^
I had a quick look, seems like a lively site/like it has a lot of personality. Ah, I see they did Okami. I like Tennis a lot, I play whenever somebody will play with me. I wanna join the local club, but I feel shy at the thought of going alone...^^; All my friends that play Tennis with me live near, or in the city. Are there no courts near you? You've really never played...? Aw, I wanna play with you. Everybody should get to try it at least once. A cookout is a BBQ? Sorry it was so hot. :/ Hmhm, you actually motivated me to draw a little yesterday to be honest. :3 Maybe we could try and encourage each other to practice somehow... you'll be great with practice! Your colouring is already better than mine. Oh, don't worry about it....ugh, to be honest. My cat got run over about an hour after my last reply....I'm kinda grateful for the spoiler. I don't think I wanna see anything where a pet is put to sleep for a while. I had her since I was 12, so I'm pretty upset and angry. Feel a lot better now I talked about it with Bear, though. Aw, thank you! I wasn't sure how that would sound. xD But thanks, big sis. I don't have any sisters by blood, either. But I call Meigumi "little sis." Nobody else has made me wanna call them 'sis' until now. That's a big family you have! I have one older brother, that be all. Haha. That sounds like Bear all right. Hmm...I guess, but I'm still every so slightly creeped out that you guessed that many right. xD Just as long as you can't guess the other two I guess I shouldn't be too scared, hehe. Phew! I'm really glad. I hope I never will be. I know I can talk a lot. Did you worry you were bothering me? From my impressions of you so far, you could never be a bother to me. ^^ *huggles big sis*
I watch a fair bit of Video Games Awesome. I really like the set-up that their show has. As far as Let's Plays, I'll catch some of Chuggaaconroy's stuff occasionally. Can't say there's really any other dedicated LPers that I follow. You play tennis? That's pretty cool. ^^ Closest thing I've ever played to tennis was on the Wii. As for my summer, it was alright. It got far too hot in the middle of the season to do much of anything, but I did catch a few cookouts here and there. Ack... I know what you mean about being out of practice. I used to do a lot of figure sketches and stuff, but I put down drawing for far too long, and now all my proportions seem totally wonky to me. :/ I'll get better with practice though. Oh, crud... I thought you'd already seen it... Sorry about that spoiler! ^^; There are a ton of heartwarming moments though, so maybe it will still be an enjoyable watch for ya. Heh... I suppose you're right, on both regards. If you want, "big sis" is fine with me. ^^ I don't have any sisters at all. I was stuck with all brothers: 1 older, and 2 younger. Do you have any siblings? I have visited SOU before, when Fate was doing a lot of those banner contests. He pm'ed me about taking a look at one of the contests to see....something... I forget what exactly. It was a fairly long time ago. Padraic, Ralz and Meigumi are really good friends with Fate and VMM, so I figured you would know them through association. It's a small internet, after all. Oh yeah? Maybe I'm their internet doppelganger! OOOoooOOOOooooo~ And nope. You're no bother at all.
Haha, yeah. I think her comments will dispel most of the scariness. She seems to love her horror. She said she likes doing let's plays of them becuase they're easy to LP. Do you have a favourite let's play person? Hee, that's a great idea! I had to go out earlier so my last reply was a little rushed (will reply the the bits I missed before). I'd also have gone walking more than I did. I love to walk, and I'm lucky becuase I live in such a gorgeous place. And play Tennis. I love Tennis. Did you do anything cool with your summer? I'm the same way. I hardly practice anymore though, so if I gotta stick to fan art to be motivated then so be it. Aww, maybe I'll watch that film as well. Not that I enjoy being upset, I'm just curious. Just you, sorry. It's nice having somebody older to talk with, though. Us old-un's are somebody for the young ones to look up to *cough* Say, can I call you 'big sis' or is that too weird? ^//^ I'm a bit retarded with names, so I like to come up with pet names/nicknames, and so far I never had an older sis. Huh...you listed most the people I know...just two are missing from your list. Do you go to SOU, or something? How'd you know who I know...? I'm glad I could remind you of pleasant old times with those two. They're a great pair of lads. Funnily enough, talking with your is reminding me of somebody else too...'chatting it up' hehe, you word things in a cool way. Okay, if you're sure. I don't wanna be a bother in some way. I really don't wanna be one of those.
Thanks for the link~ Since it's amusing, maybe I won't have to watch it with my lamp on next to me. Cut the scary with humor! I'll watch it when I have a bit of time *bookmarks* ^^ Wow, her playlist has all kinds of creepy games. Maybe you can pick up a new swimsuit now, since it's in the after season (therefore cheaper), and you'll have it for next year when you'll (hopefully) get to use it. I tend to do that with summer clothes. Well, he said 200 was a nice number to stop at, but it was pretty fun. :3 Also, I really need to work on more original stuff. Fan art is cool, but I need to use the imaginations more! Oh yeah, I bawled when Marley was on the veterinarian's table, and Owen Wilson's character was telling him what a good dog he was before he was put to sleep... I'm getting teary-eyed just thinking about it... I'm very partial to dogs (and cats), so it was hard watching that scene. Oh, I know. I do hide my age, because it does feel a bit strange to be posting on a site that has a fairly younger crowd. Maybe that's just me though. Yep, I know them. VMM doesn't sign on much anymore, but I still get to bug him sometimes. Fate signs on more often, but he's definitely not as active as when I first joined here... The times they are a-changin'. As for others: I sort of know Padraic, Ralz, and Meigumi, but not as well as Fate and Vivi. Long VMs don't bother me at all! x3
Heehee, hopefully I'll find a copy of both soon, re-live those childhood films. Hehe, I hope you like it. This girl did an amusing SH2 one: Mangaminx's Channel - YouTube She's a funny lass, and I'm sure you will approve of her accent. xD Swimming and food on the grill would definitely have been on the agenda. I need a new swimming costume, but didn't get chance to swim, so I never got one. At least I saved money. Hmm...BeeBeeQuoooo, I love youuuuu. <3 Maybe you guys should try again with a lower target number? It sounded like fun. Yay, a fellow wuss. xD Apparently...I thought the same thing about that film. Did it make you teary? Heee, when you said that I thought you were gonna be way older. It's nice to find somebody so close to my age who likes similar things on here. :3 You know Bear (Fate) and Vivi?! <3 I wonder who else we both know. Oh, no. I feel kinda rude if I don't reply and I very much feel like it. But if that's your way of telling my the replies are too long, I'll shorten them. You, uh...don't have to reply if you don't wanna, though.
Not a problem. ^^ The Back to the Future movies are perhaps my favorite trilogy of films. I could watch them over and over again, and they are highly quotable. :3 SH 2 it is then! And yeah, I do watch a few Let's Plays, mostly of games that I don't think I'll purchase, but wanna know what happens anyway. Double bummer. :/ If you had a decent summer, what are some things you would have done? I love swimming the most, and food on the grill. <3 Well, perhaps one day you'll get to travel. I think everyone should do at least a road trip in their lifetime. ^^ Yeah, I tried to keep it going, but it was a little too much. Ah well, like you said 200 was still a good number. Oh, right. I totally understand that now. Oh me too. I tear up quite a bit. Last movie that got me was Marley and Me, which sort of surprised me considering that the trailers make it look like it'd be a comedy about a dog. Just goes to show you can't trust a trailer. I am older than you. 26, to be exact. So, not by much, but still older. Talking like this reminds me of when I first joined up here. Fate and ViviMasterMage would send REAMS of text through these VMs, and we would just keep chatting it up. Ah, good times. :3 It can be a bit much though, so you don't have to reply to everything (or anything, for that matter) if you don't feel like it. ^^ It's nice talking to you though.
