XD What is "ADSL"?
That was...amusing. ^^ I love Australian accents...

Emma!! How are you all today?

You don't know what DSL is? lol Maybe it's too primitive for you :P
We're very backwards when it comes to broadband.

I know what DSL is, but what was with the A? XD
We have highspeed owo

I'm pretty sure it's the same thing... although I'm pretty sure the A stands for Asymmetrical so DSL in theory would be a better service.
*checks wiki*
According to wikipedia:

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a form of DSL, a data communications technology that enables faster data transmission over copper telephone lines than a conventional voiceband modem can provide. It does this by utilizing frequencies that are not used by a voice telephone call. A splitter - or microfilter - allows a single telephone connection to be used for both ADSL service and voice calls at the same time. Because phone lines vary in quality and were not originally engineered with DSL in mind, it can generally only be used over short distances, typically less than 4km[1].

Ah, okay. ^^;

-rolls in-
Morning threaaaad!

-luffles everyone-
How is everyone this morning?
Is everyone having wonderful holidays!
Mine is simply perfect! <3

I've gotten so many wonderful things!
I'm very very happy <33

^^ My holidays were pretty good so far. I got a new scanner and I slept.

Oo!
Congrats ;D
I got quite a few things -- all small and non-pricey for the most part, but still beloved <33

My favorite would have to be the three Fruits Basket volumes I got :3
I'm actually shocked mom got them for me too!
She's always been against me getting anime in Japanese for some reason XD
I guess she's finally softening and allowing it! <33

Hey Emma!!!!!
Merry Christmas <33333333

O nice, you have one of those cool dresses.

It's odd that your mom is against anime.

Hiya Nuxie-chaannn!
Merry Christmas!! <33333

Hehe -- it's the only one I have -- I bought it with yarn XD
(Has no goldies at the moment :gonk:)

Haha -- not anime~
Just anime not in English XD
I don't know any Japanese, and she thinks it's stupid to watch something in a language you don't understand and be forced to read subtitles -sigh-
She's not very good at reading subtitles as fast as they appear so she thinks everyone's the same XD
It's like ".....I CAN READ SUBTITLES AND STILL WATCH THE SHOW AT THE SAME TIME NO PROBLEM! :gonk:"

Hi hi!
I'm not sure about this event's items... I do like the presents though.

XD I love watching things in subtitles. They say submersing yourself in the language is the best way to learn.

Which is true. I've always watched things in English - Belgium and the Netherlands don't dub English movies and programs to Dutch, but rather watch it with subtitles - and it's really added to my vocabulary.

Kalliste: I like the presents as well :3
I'm really only fond of the background -- it reminds me of a watercolor painting so I love it lol

Bishie: Oh without a doubt!!
I've been watching Vampire Knight/Vampire Knight Guilty/Earl and Fairy and I've already learned a bunch of Japanese!
Like -- Itsumo (I think that's the proper spelling) means "always" :3

Ellie: -tackle luffs-
Hiya Onee-chan! <33

Hi there! Happy Holidays!
How's your day? :D

its not that weird, my mom always hated Pokemon(understandable) and my two siblings dont see past the "misconception" shered by most North Americans (excluding mexico), from a overly harsh judging of japan from those souped(<--implying_a_swear) anime that didn't come from manga and no values or plot and spoofs.

Emma: XD I learn a new word from each anime I watch, because there's always that one word that they say all the time.

Lol!
Like in Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicals -- Sayaoran says "Hine" (sp?) ALLLLLLLL the time when refering to Sakura because he refuses to call her Sakura now that she's lost her memories -- he'll only call her "Princess"~ XD
That's the one word I will always remember no matter what lol

"Hime", it is, actually. ^^ But I can understand that, in Syaoran, because he doesn't want to make her notice how close he actually is to her.

._. I dislike Tsubasa greatly.
XXXHolic was so much better.

Good day thread! How is everyone?

Ellie: I know - but it's still like "T_T_T_TT_T_T_T_T_T__TT_T__T DAMN YOU TIME WITCH :gonk:"
I really hope they get together in the end T_T
I'm only at the part where they just ended the Piffle Race thingy in the manga T_T

Bishie: :gonk:
Realllyyyyy?
I love it lol <33

XXXHolic?
What's that?

Kalliste: Hiya!
I'm pretty good -- just watching the last episode of Good Witch of the West :3
How are you?

o_o How can you know Tsubasa and not XXXHolic? They crossed over!
Hi, Kall. ^^
