Haha, daunting at first, but seems quite possible now~
And after, I'll make a separate file to keep track of sets, like the space set items in a bunch, the pinup items in a bunch, etc. X'D

Only to go eat with other family relatives or something, heh. At home in Taiwan, it's just me, my sister, my mom, my dad, my grandma, my great aunt, and our housekeeper.. person. And it's traditional to the point that we always eat together at home for lunch and dinner (unless we've gone out for part of the day or something, haha). Out of those people, only my dad really has knowledge of the area, but he works most of the time. My mom's been in America since soon after she married my dad, so my mom, my sister, and I have been thoroughly Americanized. XD

Most of the fun places I've been to were due to my cousins (the ones I told you of earlier, who were actually born in Taiwan XD). Sometimes they come back for the summer now, so my sister and I go hang out with them/him and their/his friends. XD

That's a lot of malls! XD
Taipei 101 is currently the "world's tallest building". Pretty much just a tourist attraction, and you can go up to around the 89th floor for observatories. It also has a mall section (sort of attached) next to it. But it's filled with all those expensive brand name stuff, haha. The inside's still could to walk around though. 83
Getting things cheap is good~ X'D

Yeah, haha. XD

I remember those~! We used to have one that also had a light, I think, around where you'd push the cup on the button for the ice to come out. XD Our current fridge just has a spoon scooper thingy so you manually scoop the ice pieces from the ice box-tray in the freezer. This is probably why I don't have ice in my drinks anymore, haha~

Sunny sounds like a nice feeling, hehe~
If I could decorate my room the way I wanted, I'd probably go with a navy and light teal-ish scheme since blue is my favorite color. XD Haha, I'm such a big packrat, so I think I can understand how you'd feel. XD Do you use your study room often? 8O

Yes, you've helped me get to the three-hundreds, haha~
I think I was around 140 or so for a really long time. XD

@ Lura:

I was supposed to clean up my whole room, but felt that the computer was important. XD;

I am most likely going to clean it up when I come from work, tonight, hopefully.

Taking a bit break on artwork. Trying my best not to mess with the tablet. But, I have to start on the artwork for the Menewshan Circus Art Auction. Well, once blueblackrose comes back and responds.

Woah. @[email protected];;
You sure are ambitious. And insane. But I'll just call you meticulous instead. xDD;; <3<3
I wish you luck on that then. =P And I hope you still keep your sanity intact afterwards. 8DD;;

And ohh, I see, I see. =O No wonder then. ^^;;
You should try and explore your surrounding yourself though. =O It would be an awesome adventure, and an interesting experience, especially since you said you've been thoroughly Americanized. xDD;; It can be exciting too, but that could just be my personal bias or something, because I'm all in for exploring the places I visit. =P

And oohh, nothing like doing something fun with your cousins. :3 I would know, since my cousins and I always get into crazy adventures when we're together. xDD;; <3<3
Hmm... now I miss them now. :x Well, not for long, anyway, since we're meeting up again this Wednesday. xDD;; I think they want to watch a live band and go drinking or something, lolz. Dunno, we'll just see where the wind (and the driver) takes us... xDDD;;

And yeah, it's definitely a lot of malls. And these aren't teeny tiny malls. They're HUUUGGGEE malls. We even have here the largest mall in Asia. xDD;; And lemme tell you, that mall is so enormous, you can only probably cover a third of the place at most in a day. D: It takes around one or two hours to walk from one end to the other too, I think. xDD;; Or... something like that. ^^;; Haven't tried it though. D: Lolz. 8DD;;

And oohh, that sounds awesome then. :> I should remember that building, so that hopefully I can visit it, if ever I manage to land in Taiwan somehow. xDD;; Tall buildings are awesome, and they fascinate me for some reason. ^^;;

And ohh yeah, I know of your fridge. Mine is only a regular one. D: So, no fancy stuff. ;_; I have to get ice from the freezer like normal. Not cool or fun at all, lolz. xDD;;

The problem with my room is that not only does it have a lot of my stuff, but some of the drawers in it contain our old baby things and other shizz that should never see the light of day. D: At least I'll get brand new lavender walls afterward though. xDD;; Even though my walls are already lavender in shade. ^^;; But, you know what I mean. 8DD;;

And we do use our study room often. =O I'm in here right now. xDD;; It's where my desktop is located, and also my brother's computer. It also contains the books, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and other shizz. It's only a small room though, and not that cozy, but it's our mini library or sorts. ^^;;

And really? LOLZ. xDD;; Glad to help then? :>
This is helping both of us though, since I'm also earning a steady income of sorts through this. xDD;; <3<3

Sakura - Haha, I need to clean my room of the dust and stuff. I was gonna do that today, but slept instead. XD;;

Cool~ Good luck for you guys with the auction, by the way. 8D
When does it end? Or did it end already? XD;


RyRy - Haha, I'd appreciate meticulous~ X'D
I'm sure I'll retain whatever sanity I have left by the time I'm done, hehe. XD

I would (and plan to), haha, but my sense of direction is almost totally hopeless. XD; My dad got me a cellphone to use there though, so at least I'd know how to contact if I get terribly lost. XD
Haha, cousins are great for crazy fun~ X'D

I can only imagine, haha~ Do you go to malls often? 8O
Well, Taiwan's not too far away from the Philippines, hehe. XD You should go during some long vacation break or something~ 8D

Wow, baby things, haha~ My current house is the third house I've lived in, but I was only in my first house for my first ten or so months of life. XD We moved out of our second house when I was in fifth grade, so a lot of our baby stuff have been moved to our garage (otherwise we've given away most of it, heh). Lavender walls sound lovely~ owo
Oh, I see, heh. It would make sense then to have most of your stuff in your bedroom then study room. XD I figure, usually the places you spend most of your time in would have most of your stuff, just so they'd all be within reach. XD

X'D
Oh! Much congrats on the Oriental Fan~ ^O^

I love that word. :> I dunno, it sounds nice when people say it~ =P <3<3
And lolz, you should. xDD;; Else I'll have one less friend to talk to here. ;_; Lolz. xDD;;
Ever considered sharing it to the Mene public? =O
The thought just occurred to me. xDD;;

Ohh, you have a bad sense of direction? =O SAME HERE! xDD;; Which is why I'm afraid of what'll happen if I learn how to drive and have to get myself around here. I'm horrible at reading maps too. @[email protected];; </3 But at least you have a phone though, so, that's always a good thing. ^^;; <3<3

And yes, cousins are crazy fun indeed. xDD;;
Like some of them want to plan a road trip for next next week. @[email protected];;
And I'm like, "I have to enroll for university."
And they're like, "Pshh, killjoy." xDD;;
I love them. =P <3<3

And us? =O I used to, but not so much anymore, partly because I'm bored of them, and also because I have no more money to spend, what with my shopping spree this whole summer. xDD;;
And yeah, I would love to visit Taiwan someday. =O <3<3
I wanna travel the world, actually. ^^;; Part of my dream. :>

And yes, baby things. @[email protected];; Things I didn't even know still existed till about two years ago. ^^;; It was surprising and slightly nostalgic when we uncovered them during our spring cleaning that year. ^^;;

And you've moved a lot? =O Interesting. :> I've been in the same house since I was one year old. xDD;; Before that, my parents stayed at my mom's mom (aka my grandmother), as they were waiting for the house to finish being built. :3

And yes, lavender walls. I adore my wallpaper right now. xDD;; Although, it'd be awesome to change to paint, and even add my own touches to my wall with paint, maybe. :3

And really? =O I actually spend a lot more time in the study room than in my room, simply because my air-conditioning in my room is broken at the moment. D: And even when it was fixed, my mom would always tell me and brother to go use the air-conditioning in the study room instead of in our own respective rooms to save electricity. =P It makes sense though. :>
Also, if ever I need something from my room, I just have to walk a very short distance, since my room is right beside said study room anyway. xDD;; <3<3 So, not too much of a hassle on my part. :3

And ohh, thank you very much for the congratulations! :'D <3<3
I'm so happy about it. @[email protected];; <3<3

I think it's a cool word to say, haha~
Ahaha, there's nothing wrong with having friends who have quite a bit of insanity. X'DD
I hadn't thought about it, but it would be nice wouldn't it. 8O
The only problem is that I've typed it up using tabs (the tab keyboard button, not like.. organizational tabs. XD So it's not like I can post it anywhere (it'd be way over the character limit anyway. XD) But I can just upload the notepad file for people to download and save to their computers~ (And just add what kind of font type and font size I used for it to look neat, haha.)

Ahh, haha. I'm not bad at reading maps, but in order for myself to have a better sense of direction, I have to have a picture of the map in my mind. But like.. sometimes I'll need to drive to places I've never seen the map of before, and then I'd feel hopefully lost. >.<; I hate driving too, so I really have to concentrate on the driving part while having the passenger give me directions. XD;

Aww. XD
Haha, what kinds of things did you bring home from the summer shopping spree(s)? XD
Heh~ How much of it have you visited and where would you want to visit most? 8'O

Just once, haha. I don't remember the first house at all, it's just a birthplace to me. XD;
Ack, broken air conditioners suck. DX If I'm not in my own room, then I'm all the way downstairs in the living room area, haha. So if I had to get just a small thing, the thought of climbing the flight of stairs could increase my laziness. XD
I've only ever known walls with paint here in the States, but in Taiwan, I think all the walls in my house there are covered in wallpaper. It's a really really old house though, and the wallpaper in some of the rooms is starting to come off. XD;

Hehe, you should be~!
Yay for luck! 8D

@ Lura:

Sleep is good. Feel lazy and get all your rest in.

According to the auction, it did ended, but blueblackrose has not showed up. So we are waiting for a final call on it.

It could be extended for all I know.

Lolz, definitely. xDD;; I just wish it was used more often in describing me cause the word is so pretty, even if I'm not meticulous at all. 8DD;; Only sometimes when I'm in the right frame of mind, or so people have said. ^^;;

And lolz, that's true. xDD;; But there's a difference between crazy and insane, after all. =P <3<3
And ohh, I see. =O If you let people download the note pad, that isn't bad either. Only if you wanna share it though, since I know that must make you very proud. =P Lolz. xDD;; <3<3
And actually, the thought initially came to me when I remembered that you were looking for ways to earn more gold or something, so I figured that if you posted this in different posts per shop or something, that'd be a real gold earner. xDD;;
It'd be crazily hard to maintain the thread though, especially when new commons arrived. xDD;;

And I'm only good with a map if I sit down and think it through. I tend to get horribly cross-eyed and confused if I do it inside a car, and even more when the car is in motion. ^^;; Cause you see, I have motion sickness, so reading a map inside a moving car is not a very nice thing. @[email protected];;
The one on the passenger seat giving me directions though is a good idea. =P <3<3

Yes, shopping sprees. ^^;; There's an almost-eternal sale going on due to the recession, so it's so tempting not to buy at least one thing when you're in the mall. xDD;; And I've bought loads of stuff, from the regular clothes, shoes, and accessories in malls, to tribal things when I went to the mountains, and now I'm probably going to buy some beach accessories and maybe new pearls for when I go to this really nice beach during the weekend. 8DD;; <3<3

And I've only gone to a few places. =O Australia, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. ^^;; Some were only stopovers where we only spent two days maximum in the area (Thailand and Malaysia), but it was still pretty fun~ :'D <3<3
And where do I want to visit the most right now? =O I would say Europe. xDD;; Anywhere there, as I would love to just step on European soil. xDD;;
Hopefully my dream will come true by the time I finish college/university, since my parents and I have a bet that if I graduate at least a Cum Laude (meaning having an average grade of 1.4 from a 1-5 grading scale where 1 is the highest), then they'll take me on a trip around Europe. :3 So excited for it! It's a big reason why I'm working hard in university, after all. :>

And ohh, I see. =O Only reason I remember my birthplace house... thing, is because my grandmother still lives there today. xDD;;
And ohh, I know what you mean. D: I hate going up and down the stairs to get stuff. @[email protected];; Which sucks, since I'm usually upstairs, while the snacks and other goodies are in the first floor. DX </3 It's almost like I'm on a diet due to laziness sometimes, lolz. xDD;;

And yeah, wallpaper was a really big thing before, which is why old houses usually have wallpaper instead of paint. =O
Although, the US uses paint instead of wallpaper more than other places because it's not as humid as other places. :3 Namely Asian countries, I guess. ^^;;
But lolz, maybe you should replace the wallpaper at your house then. =P

And yay for luck indeed. xDD;; <3<3
It made me happy when I saw the announcement~ :'D <3<3

Sakura - Haha, sleep is indeed good, but I think I've been getting a bit too much of it lately, and at the wrong times. XD;
Heh~ I hope it gets sorted out soon. 8O


RyRy - Well, I don't think I'm meticulous all the time, haha. Surely there have been more than several occasions it could be used to describe you. 83

It would also save people a lot of time, if they were thinking about it making it too, haha. Since time is such a precious thing, it wouldn't be kind of me to not help out when I can. XD
The thing that bothers me the most about it is the emote shirts when posting in the forums, haha. Because some of them automatically change to smilies, but.. there is that 'disable smilies in text' button.. hrm.. The other thing that worries me is if I separate the posts by shops, I think even some of the shops would go over the character limit, heh.
I don't think the shop updates would be too hard to maintain though. 8O
Of course, that would mean that I actually update while they're coming out and not waiting until later. XD Meh.. I'll think about making a thread when I completely finish my list, hehe~

Ohh, I see. 8O
I've always kind of wondered about people with motion sickness.. like, do they ever have problems driving? Or is it just when they're the passenger in a car. @[email protected]

XDD Well, your purchases (past and potential) are helping out the economy, haha~

Hehe, I remember you talking about that bet~ 8D
I've never been to Europe either, but I really want to someday~ @[email protected]
We were planning to go to Europe this summer (in a tour group, cuz my uncle's a tour guide 83), but I think it was canceled because there were too many/not enough people? Or probably not enough time or something? I don't remember, heh..
Australia was fun to visit~ I got to hold a koala, and that's like, the only memory I have from there, haha. XD We also saw dingos(sp?) and kangaroos, of course, but I don't remember much else from my trip there. >w>;;

! XD
Haha, same~ XD And it sucks that I always feel in the mood for snacks and such. And drinks (since I usually don't drink enough liquid in a day)! XD

Yeah, I figured it was because humidity and paint don't mix, haha.
We should really replace the wallpaper there. I've thought about sort of renovating a lot about that house before, but I've never put the idea out for everyone else. I guess my reasoning was just that I'm really only ever there during the summer, and if my family members who live there all the time don't mind the old nature of the house, why should I suggest a change? ^ ^;

Hehe~ X'D <3

Lolz, you seem like it though. =P I would think that a dedicated art student would have to be meticulous to a point, what with you guys always creating masterpieces that need a lot of thought and detail added to it. ^^;; <3<3
And yeah, it's been used to describe me, sometimes. xDD;; Depends on my mood, as I've mentioned. ^^;;

And lolz, it's your creation and hard work, so it's all up to you what you want to do with it. =P <3<3
And ohh, yeah, I see what you mean. =O And there's an option to disable it? I so didn't know that. xDD;; Yay for learning something new today! ^^;; But yeah, you could use that, if ever. =O
And hmm... maybe you could just divide some shops then? =P Like Accentuate, lolz. xDD;; Although, now that I think about it, if you keep dividing your posts, you'll most likely extend a page or two, and that would be weird for people. ^^;;
What IS the character limit per post anyway? =O I don't think I've ever known an exact number. xDD;; Although it must be really huge, since I see REALLY long text walls that don't go over the limit. 8DD;;
And, well, they COULD be hard to maintain, especially since items will be moving around from page to page when it happens. ^^;; But, if you're detailed and persevering enough, it shouldn't be a problem. xDD;; <3<3
And okies then. :> Good luck finishing making your list then! :'D <3<3

And, well, my motion sickness isn't severe or anything. ^^;; But when you have motion sickness, it's better to sit in the front of the car in the passenger seat as opposed to sitting at the back. Because, when you're in front, you don't feel the effect of turning and moving as much as if you sat at the back, since the back is just basically dragged around by the front of the car in the first place. xDD;;
It's also better if you sit at the sides than in the middle at the back of a car, since then you'll at the very least have some place to lean your head on (the window) if ever you get dizzy. xDD;; And, on the occasion that you do get dizzy, well, the window is wide open. 8DD;;
I dunno about planes or boats/ships though, because I don't get dizzy when riding those. =O It's mostly just for the car. xDD;; For me though, at least. ^^;;

And LOLOLZ. 8DD;; I guess so...? ^^;; They're not helping my family though, and our current economical standing, lolz. 8DD;;

And yeah, I remember mentioning it too. :> Guess I forgot to mention that I remember mentioning it before in my last post though, lolz. xDD;; And yay for wanting to visit Europe! :> It's a lovely place that I'm sure is awesome and everything. =P <3<3
And awws, really? :< That's a shame. =( There's always next time though? ^^;; <3<3
And really? =O Cool. :> I went to Australia when I was really young also, so, I don't remember as much as I would like too. ^^;; I do remember all the animals, the opera house, and a lot of other neat things. ^^;; So, I guess I'll have to be content with those memories for now. xDD;; <3<3

And OMG! Same here! =O I don't drink the needed eight glasses of water a day. D: Probably why my lips are usually dry too. @[email protected];; Lolz. xDD;; I hate it though. ;_; </3

And lolz, yeah, that's true. ^^;; Too bad though. :< Since you can do awesome stuff with paint. 8DD;; <3<3
And, well, your reasoning is right. =O It wouldn't hurt to lay the suggestion out on the table though, I believe. =P Who knows? Maybe they just need the initiative of someone so that they'll start and do it. xDD;; Doesn't hurt to try, right? =P

And woah, I just realized that you replied at a time when you're usually not online. =O Are you staying up late, perhaps? xDD;; <3<3

Yeah, haha, it's already past five in the morning for me right now. XD;;;

I suppose, heh. ^ ^

The character limit is something like 5000? At least for PMs, haha. XD
And I just previewed one of the shops, I don't remember which. But even that shop list felt incredibly long since it's one item per line (even with the tiniest font). XD; I could use the hide/spoiler feature, but then you'd have to expand all of them to search for an item (if you don't know which shop it's in) anyway. XD; So having this as a thread the way I've typed it would probably me more of a hassle than a help. Notepad file is best. XD But I could probably still keep a thread for people to download, like the MAC; and people could post if they find mistakes and such so I can fix it. Then I guess upload a new version every time there's a shop update. 8O ( I just realized that my notepad file is only for female items (or whatever shows up for female avis XD) so I don't have any of the male items listed. 8D;; )
Ah, no no, I don't keep track of page numbers. XDD; That'd be way too much work, haha~ The shops already list items by price now anyway, so it wouldn't be hard to find. For my notepad file, I just have them sorted by shop, with their price next to it in the same line. 83

Haha, I guess that's why they separate motion sickness with airsick and seasick and carsick and such. XD

XDD;;

Yeah, there's always another chance I can go visit. ^ ^
Haha, I went when I was really young too. I only remember the animals.. Oh! The opera house, haha, I think we went to go see that as well. XD

Heh, it doesn't help that I tend to bit my lip a lot when I'm really into something. Like, sometimes, I get really sucked into a book and chew my lip without really noticing it. >.<

Sponge patterns have always looked pretty cool to me on walls~ XD
Yeah, it wouldn't hurt, but we live in an apartment building-ish thing, so I think if we did any renovating, we'd have to get permission first, and I've no idea how to go about doing all that stuff, not to mention in Chinese. o^o;

I didn't realize how long it takes to type up these text walls. XD
It was 530-ish when I started, and now it's about ten to 6. XD;

Woah. @[email protected];; Why are you up so late, if I may ask? o_O;;

And yeah, I know about the character limit with PM's. =O I wasn't aware that there was a limit like that for posts though. =O Hmm... I think we should try asking in the Information Desk subforum, just to be sure. xDD;; <3<3

And, well, you could add small descriptions for the shops, so that people may find what they're looking for easier? =O Like, mentioning that all shoes are in Hopscotch and all weapons are in the Armory could be useful. :> Although, I do see what you mean about the difficulty. ^^;; I would personally just use the Find button though, if ever I didn't know what I was looking for, lolz. xDD;;

But I like your idea for a thread where you can download the file like the MAC. =O That would be nice. :> And really? =O No wonder then. xDD;; Page numbers are difficult. D:
And ohh, you don't have the male items? Well, thinking about it now, you wouldn't, as male items don't appear if you have a female avatar. 8DD;; Although... I guess if you're gonna post your current list up for the Mene public, there might be a demand for a male list too. @[email protected];; Oh noes, that's gonna be harder on your part. :x

And lolz! xDD;; True. =O I never thought of it in that manner though. Interesting and keen observation there. =P <3<3

And yes, that's the spirit! :> One day, if we're ever still on Mene (lulz xDD), we could possibly talk about our European escapades. =P That'd be an interesting and fun conversation. 8DD;; <3<3
And yeah, that's mostly what I remember as well. :> And oh! The really big ocean park! =O I forgot the exact name, but I remember that too. xDD;;

And OMG! I do that too! =O And then I accidentally bite off some skin on my lip in the process. @[email protected];; Which stings, and then I start to regret not putting on more lip balm while I try to avert my thinking away from the pain. ^^;; It's happening less now though, since I usually have my lip balm in hand wherever I am. xDD;;

And oohh! I agree. =O The first floor's main hallways and walls are painted yellow with a sort of dark yellow/orange sponge pattern above it. It's only subtle, but it has a really pretty effect. :> We're very happy with the results, actually. ^^ <3<3
And woah, I see. @[email protected];; W-Well, your relatives living there would know about it, or at least be the ones to ask about it? xDD;; All you have to do is suggest it to them, so perhaps they'll take a liking to your idea and undertake the task themselves? ^^;; You'll never know~ xDD;;

And woah, lolz. xDD;; It takes me more time than I thought as well. ^^;; Although, since I tend to type fast in order to keep up with my thought process, I'm learning how to respond faster to our text walls. 8DD;; It's a slow but sure process. ^^;; <3<3

Because pretty much since my vacation started, I've (unintentionally) screwed over my biological clock, sleeping during the day time, busying myself with computer stuff at night. DX

No no, that's what I meant by 'search for the item', haha. You'd still have to expand all the spoiler posts for ctrl+f to search them. @^@;
Haha, I tried the page number thing, even just for the items in my quest thread, but it got tedious to have to go back and re-look for the items once there was a shop update, so I stopped. XD;
Yeah, male items don't show up. XD I mean.. I guess I could make a mule account, just to be able to see what the male items are. Otherwise.. I'd see if anyone was generous enough to add the male items. (But I wouldn't know which items actually show up for both.) >O>; Some items show the (F) and such next to the names, but that's assuming that particular item is available for both genders.

I like words? XD
I dunno, it's just little stuff like this that make language interesting to me, haha.

! XD I feel like as long as I'm still in school, and as long as Mene still exists, I'll still be here more or less. X'D
Humm... the really big ocean park doesn't ring any bells in my mind, haha. XD;

I don't wear chapstick or lip balm, so there's not really anything to stop me from biting my lip, aside from the small pain, haha. XD;

Ahh, that makes me sort of think of like... Spanish mission style buildings. 8O
We'll see when I go there next week, haha. XD

Haha, when I try to type faster to keep up with my thought process, it usually doesn't work. I get jumbled up and make lots and lots of typos, so I have to pause every now and again to see what I've said and try to connect it with another thought. XD

Lolz. xDD;; I see, I see. 8DD;; Well, that's always how it normally is, I think. ^^;; I myself have screwed over my biological clock lately as well, since I keep going out to parties at night that last till the wee hours of the morning. 8DD;;
Although, thinking about it, my biological clock is already a little screwy, since I regularly sleep at 12am at the earliest, even during the school year. ^^;; Stress and staying up late has gotten me into the habit of staying up real late, yet still managing to wake up early when needed. @[email protected];; I regularly got 5 hours of sleep at the most back then, and I'm expecting even less hours come my second year in university. @[email protected];; </3

And ohh, I see, I see. =O
Well, if you think about it this way, people should have a general idea of where an item is. xDD;;
Or, they can just open the spoiler tag, search, close the spoiler tab, and try again, if worse comes to worse. ^^;;
And ohh, I see, I see. =O Lolz, yeah, it really is tedious to keep up with page numbers for the shop items. @[email protected];;
And you don't have a mule account? =O I always assumed that you did, haha. ^^;;
Anyhows, yeah, some items are unisex, while others aren't. :x And since you're unfamiliar with the male items, the job will be even more tedious. ^^;; I guess you could always just make a mule account, and just copy+paste your female list for the male, and then just edit accordingly if some female items don't show up. xDD;; Saves a lot of time, considering that the alternative is making a new list. =P
Although, this is only if you even decide to do it. xDD;; Like I said earlier, you don't have to share it to Mene if you don't want the hassle of keeping up with it and stuff. =P All up to you~ ^^;; <3<3

I like words too. xDD;; But I'm sometimes too much of an airhead to notice them properly, lolz. ^^;;

And hmm, I think the same will happen for me. =O I'm assuming that Mene will still be around for yeas to come. =O I mean, if Gaia can do it, so can Mene! xDD;; At least, I hope it's still around, since I love this place a lot. :x <3<3
And really? It doesn't? =O It was like a regular ocean park and all with sea animals, but it was really big. At least, I remember it as really big as a kid, so, it could just be that I was really small back then and the place seemed huge. 8DD;;

And you don't? =O I find them a blessing. xDD;; <3<3
Although, I need to use special lip balms and chapsticks, because regular ones just make my lips even drier, for some reason. ^^;;

Wait, what? o_O;; A Spanish mission style building? @[email protected];; I guess the colors are Spanish-ish, now that I think about it, but I don't understand the mission style part of your description, lolz. xDD;;
And oohh, good luck suggesting it then. =P <3<3

And really? =O Lolz, we're the total opposite then. I never go back on what I say, except when I'm making a serious essay-like post or something that needs to be spell-checked. xDD;; Then again, I have a spell-checker on, so, that definitely helps a lot in that the red dotted lines that appear will tell me immediately when I have committed an error or something. ^^;;
Although, sad to say it doesn't always work. ^^;; Sometimes I leave out a word or two by mistake because my thought process is faster than my typing ability. 8DD;; I guess that one can't be helped. >.>;;
I should probably read over my posts like you do... But it's too tedious and I'm too lazy. D: </3 Lolz. xDD;;

Nice, haha. XD
At first, for this past year, I tried to get myself to sleep at 12am at the latest.. but that didn't last very long, and soon, even 12 was considered an early bed time to me. XD; I usually got 5-7 hours of sleep, if I hadn't been staying up the whole night. ( Often, if I end up staying awake past 3am, I try not to go to sleep because I'm paranoid that I'll oversleep and miss class. >^<; )
Next semester though, I'm gonna have 9am classes Monday, Wednesday, Friday; Tuesdays and Thursdays, I'll start at 2pm, so I'll most likely be sleeping in on those mornings. XD

Yeah, I guess I'll think about it a little more, haha. XD
Or maybe I'll ask a mod about it too, just for more feedback on what method would be best. 8O
Nope, never really found the need for one, haha. Gaia's the only other place I have a mule account, originally made for my art shop. But after a strange hacking incident, it became my main... and now I've got my main back, so I kind of switch back and forth a lot. ( I try not to do it so much though, since it tends to confuse people sometimes. XD; )
Yeah, yeah, that's what I was planning to do if I made a mule account, haha. I wouldn't make myself work more than necessary (for this task XDD), I've never been more grateful for the copy+paste function. X'D

Haha, I don't think that people don't notice things about words because they're airheads. XDD; It's just not something we really deem as that important in our now busy modern lives. owo

Mene's such an awesome site~
I probably wouldn't last if I had to give it up for Lent or something. XDD
Nope, still can't really remember, heh. Do you remember what parts of Australia you visited? 8O

That's weird. XD;
Heh, I don't use any chap stick, lipstick, lip gloss, any make up at all.
I guess aside from my really long hair, I'm not very girly in appearance (my opinion). XDD

Umm.. I guess, the sponge effect with those colors just make me think of adobe rocky sort of texture?

Haha, I usually don't go back after typing the whole thing up, I check in sections as I type. XD
Oh, I pay attention to my spell-checker as well, haha. But sometimes (more often than I'd like), I'll think of a word, but write another word instead. XD; Especially with those "their", "there", "they're" kind of words, I know the difference, but my fingers don't seem to care. XD And yeah, some of my sentences tend to leave out a couple words as well, haha.

It's not as nice as it sounds. D: Now I dunno how I'm going to go back to my normally abnormal biological clock. xDD;; Or is it abnormally normal? o_O;; Lololz, I'm confuzzled now. 8DD;; <3<3
And ohh, really? =O I hate sleeping past 3am as well, since I have the same fears as you do. D: I still do anyway, and just suck it up and go to class anyway. >.>;; I just get someone to forcefully wake me up instead so that I don't accidentally skip class. 8DD;;
And oohh, lucky! =P Sleeping in is the best ever. >83 <3<3

And hmm, that's a good idea. =O You could also ask if ever they already plan on doing something like it, in case they already are so that you don't have to waste your time in making a thread and all. 8DD;; It never hurts to check, after all. :> <3<3
And ohh, I see, I see. =O I never had a mule on Gaia though, strangely enough. xDD;; Here, I initially got a mule so I could max out games and earn goldies, but now I use her as storage for my hoards. 8DD;;
And lololz, copy+paste rules, I swear. >83 <3<3

Hmm... I see your point. =O I still think I miss thing sometimes because I do tend to become an airhead once in a while. xDD;; I have my blonde moments. ^^;; But your theory makes sense. =P <3<3

And LOLZ, I don't think I'll last either. xDD;; Even when I don't log onto my account, I still lurk at least and see if some threads have posts that I could reply to or something. ^^;; Mene is now forever a part of my internet cycle. 8DD;;

And hmm, I visited only Sydney, and a little bit of Melbourne. =O I also only spent a little over a week there, so, I wasn't there for very long to begin with. ^^;;

And lolz. xDD;; I'm learning how to use make-up, mostly since I feel the need to at least know how. 8DD;; I only ever use make-up for parties and stuff. On regular days, I don't wear any make-up, except maybe some powder if I feel like it. xDD;;

And hmm, really? =O I guess. ^^;; I just never thought of it that way though... xDD;;

And lolz, I know what you mean about the word problem. xDD;; I have a bigger problem with leaving out words more than using the wrong word though. ^^;; But I understand how that can be hard to fix. D: </3

I'd say it's abnormally normal. XD Since it's kind of 'normal' for students to have abnormal biological clocks? XD;
I live alone, so I can only rely on my alarm clock(s), since I can also be a pretty deep sleeper at times too, haha. I think I've gone to class an hour late before, but it was a three-hour studio class, so it didn't seem as bad (to me). XD; Haha, yes, sleeping in is great~ Especially with four-day weekends! XDD

Very true, I didn't think about that, haha. XD
Haha, I thought about getting a mule account for maxed games gold, but it seemed like a waste to me, I guess.. Especially since I can't go on playing 500g Tetris all the time, the game would just seem more like a chore for me. >.<; But well, now I'm thinking about making a mule with the name of one of my male RP characters, haha. I'm glad no one's taken his name yet either. X'D
So does the double-click-highlight~ X'D

Aww, I'm sorry for your blonde moments, I have them occasionally. XD;

Ahaha, I do that too sometimes! XD

Yeah, we didn't spend a long time there either. Of course, it was a tour guide trip, with (I think) some elderly people, so it could be thought of as not long enough for younger people in some ways? XD; Hmm.. I think we went a little north from Sydney rather than down southward, but my memory from then isn't serving me too well right now, haha.

Haha, I guess the fact that I don't like going to parties much adds to my make-up non-usage. XD

I guess it's just a connection I made based on text description,
if I saw your walls, I'd probably have made a different connection. XD

Yeah.. it really does surprise me how often I leave out words though.
(which especially shows when I proofread essays and such, usually important words, too. DX)

LOLOLZ. xDD;; I like your reasoning there. =P Totally makes sense. ^^;;
And really? =O Alarm clocks don't work for me, sadly. D: Only my phone's alarm can wake me up, although I should credit it to the songs I put in there that serve as my alarm clock of sorts. xDD;;
And ohh, really? =O That's not too bad then, if the class was three hours long anyway. =P
And OMG! Four-day weekends are love. <3<3 I already normally have a three-day weekend, so four days is definitely what gets to me. :drool:

Lolz, glad to help somehow then. ^^;; <3<3
And I guess. =O I didn't think of it as a chore back then when I first made my mule, because that was the time that I was really dedicated on questing for my Pudao of Time. xDD;; The games on my mule paid off in the end though, when I ended up with lots of pure goldies to offer, and the one selling was happy with my offer because of all the pure. 8DD;;
And oohh, what's your RP character's name, if I may ask? =O <3<3
And oh! That one is awesome as well. =P I also use it all the time. 8DD;;

And lolz, I think we all do. ^^;;
What sucks for me though is that I have them a little too often for someone who's supposedly "more than above average", as people have told me. >.>;; But hey! I'm only human. D: </3

And really? =O Yay! Glad I'm not alone with my strange lurking tendencies then. xDD;; <3<3

And ohh, I see, I see. =O I get you about the length of time. ^^;;
My family and I also joined some tours while we were there, but not all the time, because my mom had a very close high school friend who lived there (and I think still does xDD) and showed us around instead. =P <3<3

And lolz, I guess it does. ^^;;
When everyone started turning 18, parties were unavoidable, because we were all sort-of required to go to each others' debuts. xDD;; <3<3

And, well, I think you're accurate, I guess. =O Not totally, but if you think about it, then I guess you can fit the mental image in. ^^;; <3<3

And OMG! Same here. D: Especially with words like "not" and etc, because it can really make the difference (ex. do this, and not do this). >.>;; Lololz. 8DD;;

I'm really weird with alarm clocks. >.<
Like, usually at home, I can never wake up to them. But once I go to my apartment or dorm by campus, I can wake up to those same alarms like, 99.99% of the time. @[email protected] (The other .01% is for times like when I know I don't have anything particularly early the next day, or when I've stayed up really really late. XD)
I had a three day weekend last semester, but my last class ended around 2 on Thursdays, so it felt like a four day weekend. XD This coming semester though, I have classes on Friday mornings that I'm not really looking forward to, haha~

That makes sense, haha. Hmm.. The only time I quested for something really expensive was for the Midnight Dreams gown, which costs 10000. But luckily enough for me, I won mine from the Quest Raffle. XDD I think I had saved uhh.. something from 4000-6000 before entering the raffle?
His name is Tam, and I've already made his account~ 8DDD;
I didn't realize until last night just how much less of male items than female items there are in shops, haha. XD;;

Yeah, it sucks how blonde moments seem to have greater effect on people who are supposedly "more than above average". >.<

Haha~ XD
It happens more often to me on Gaia with it's half-hour (or hour?) timeouts, and I'm too lazy to sign back in. XD;

Yeah, sometimes I think it's more fun to visit a place when there's someone you know there to show you around. XD

Ohh, I see, that makes sense, haha. I know how big debuts can be. XD
Too bad chinese people don't have something like debuts and sweet sixteens, which I didn't really have either, haha. XD

Haha~ XD

Yeah, sentences with negative words are quite disastrous when those words are skipped. XD;

Lolz! xDD;; Maybe it's because you're more comfortable with your bed at home than the one in your apartment or dorm? =O If you feel more at ease in one place, the chances of you falling into a deeper and longer sleep increase, I believe. xDD;; <3<3
And ahh, I hate morning classes in general. D: But I've learned to deal with them though, as I hate going home real late even more than waking up for morning classes. ^^;; Sucks that you don't have your four-day weekends anymore though. :< Maybe the next semester after this one...? xDD;;

And oohh, that's lucky for you then! :>
And wait, that's your most expensive? =O So you've never quested for big CI's since you've been on Mene? Or is it just because you were around at the time of their release, so they weren't as expensive as they are now? xDD;;

And oohh, cool then. =P Wait, you just made him? xDD;; Couldn't wait, noh? 8DD;;
And yes, there are definitely a lot less male items than female ones. ^^;; It's the same with real life though, if you think about it, lolz. xDD;;
I'm suddenly reminded of Bartuc, who I haven't seen in forever. :< He has all of the male commons, I think. xDD;; Well, I'm not sure about the most recent ones, but I'm fairly certain he has every male common up till either January or the Valentines' Day '09 event. 8DD;; Lucky dude. ^^;;

Yeah, that's true. ;_; While I admit that some of my blonde moments are really stupid, not all of them are that dumb, and it only seems dumber than usual because I do it instead of a usual air-headed person. >.>;;
*sigh*
The consequences of having expectations set upon you... ^^;; </3

And lolz! xDD;; Speaking of time outs, does Mene have them? =O I've never experienced getting timed out from Mene before, so I wouldn't know for sure if one such thing existed here. ^^;;

And that's very true. :> You get to see things from the viewpoint of someone who's lived there a long time, without all the formalities and, sometimes, constricting safety shizz. xDD;;

Ohh, really? =O I'm sure you've attended at least a few though? =O You do live in the US, where I know that debuts are also quite common, like over here. xDD;; <3<3

And yes, definitely. @[email protected];; I've suffered the consequences more times than any person should. >.>;; It's not pretty. D: </3

Haha, I dunno, but I think my bed at my apartment is more comfortable than the one I have at home. XD
I do get that ease = better sleep though, put simply. XD
Haha, that's my same reasoning. XD Also with the fact that it's not really that safe to be walking around late at night, so I try my best not to register for night classes. One good thing, I guess, is that I've only ever had 8am classes in Freshman year; after that, the earliest I've started has been 9am. XD
I'm sure I'll be able to get the four-day weekend again sometime, haha~ XDD
*thinks* My freshman fall, I had Wednesdays off.. freshman spring I don't think I had any weekdays off, one of the semesters in sophomore year I sort of had 3-day weekends, but sometimes I would have Japanese morning class on fridays, junior fall I might have had fridays off?, and junior spring I had the 3/4-day weekends. XD

I wasn't around, but I didn't think my gold earning would be that productive either, haha. XDD So when I got to making MACs for my avi, I usually stayed away from any CIs and EIs I didn't already have (which wasn't much XD). But yeah, I don't think I've quested for any big CIs yet. 8O;

Nope, haha~ XD
Yeah, especially since it's not so bad anymore if girls wear guy clothing, heh.
I'd imagine so, haha~ He makes really nice outfits too. X'D

I really came to hate this aspect of 'expectations' when I got to college. My grades in college really don't reflect my high school grades much. XD;;;

I think Mene did at some point, (it was around 30-40 minutes for timeout), but I think they've gotten rid of it by now? I haven't gotten timed out from Mene in a while now, and I know I've left it alone for hours before. >O>

Ahaha, the potential for danger always has to play a role in adventuring~ X'D
But also, tours tend to provide a little something for everyone, but if a native to that area were to show you around, your time spent there would be more.. individualized/personalized(don't know the right word XD)?

I've only been to one friend's debut, and though I do know her (having gone to a relatively small school with her) she's more of a friend of a friend. ^ ^ Strangely enough, I didn't attend the debut of the filipina friend who I'm really close to. I think I was probably out of the country at the time though. @[email protected]; And although sweet sixteens are pretty popular here, I've never been to anyone's either. XD; Well, one friend, but it was more like a casual birthday slumber party. XDDD

Aww, *patpat* D8

hello Lura god luck on your quests!

Hi and thank you, shinigami~ ^w^o

Really? =O Maybe it's because subconsciously, your body knows that it should wake up early when you're in your apartment or dorm, but knows that you can sleep in when you're at home...? xDD;; <3<3
And yes, definitely not safe to be walking around anywhere at night. >.>;; Lucky you though! =P My first classes last semester all started at 7am... D: </3 It was horrible. ;_;
And lolz, yeah, you will. xDD;; Maybe when there's a national holiday or something? ^^;;
And hmm, you seem to have been fortunate with your schedule then, since it seems that you've had your fair share of three-day and four-day weekends. xDD;; Lucky you then! =P <3<3

Ohh, I see, I see. =O No wonder then. =P Ever think that you plan on questing for something big in the future though? <3<3

And yes! So true. :> I love the fact that girls can wear guys' clothing, but guys can't wear girls' clothing. xDD;; It makes for a more... liberating experience? 8DD;; LOLZ, okay, I'm phrasing this weird. ^^;; Sorry. D: </3
And yes, Bartuc is awesome indeed. =P <3<3

Really? =O I think that mine still does, only because of said thing about the European trip. xDD;; It's a lot harder, but I (usually) work harder because of that. ^^;; Besides, it's sometimes nice to show people that not all "smart" people are nerdy. xDD;; Cause, I think I'm real far from the usual stereotype of "smart" people, I think. ^^;; I mean, the blonde moments speak for themselves. xDD;;

And hmm, I see then. =O Wonder why there's no time out though...
Speaking of which, did you see the recent message about fake login pages? =O That's scary indeed. :x </3

And yes! It does. :3 I'm a thrill seeker in a sense that I love that spirit of taking a plunge towards something unknown. xDD;; <3<3
And yeah, I get what you mean. =P I think more personal is the right description? Not sure though. ^^;;

And really? =O Well, at least you've gone to one though? :3 <3<3
And lolz, I see, I see. xDD;; Well, they tend to get repetitive after a while, but it's more of the fact that you get to spend time with friends for a special occasion, more than the actual formalities of it all. xDD;;
And actually, formal debuts aren't so in anymore. ^^;; Always semi-formal now. xDD;; Guess all the gowns have finally gotten into people's nerves, lolz. 8DD;;

And aww, thankies for the pat. ^^;; <3<3
Btw, I'll be gone for the weekend, fyi~ Just thought I'd let you know. ^^;; <3<3

Possibly, though sometimes I end up sleeping in when I do in fact have something planned early the next day. XD;;
Ack, 7am classes, I don't think I'd feel very awake for those, so for better chances of actually keeping my grade where it's at or higher, I'd personally avoid them, haha~
My school doesn't seem to like giving holidays, haha~ But sometimes, my schedule would be set up so that I'd get that day of anyway or something when that holiday comes. XD; But yeah, I've been pretty lucky with my schedules, haha~

Mm.. probably not, haha. I guess I'm not so ambitious with the avi items here in quality as opposed to quantity, but I'm quite the opposite on Gaia. I've been questing the nitemare scarf for a little more than two years now. XDD;

That's okay, I understand it perfectly. XD
Hehe~

Probably because they were becoming pointless/annoying? (random guessing) XD;
Yeah, I did. D8; It's really freaky how things like that happen (rarely, it's assumed, but still happens). But I take comfort in my good username/password habits, heh. None of my gaian usernames are the same as the two I have here, the passwords are all different too. On another site, I go by a same username, but very different passwords. 83 I also use really random combos of numbers and letters (upper and lower case) for my passwords that eventually become memorized by my fingers, haha. Oh, wait a minute. D8 Are you talking about fake login pages? Or the Subeta/*chan thing? @[email protected];

Oh my! Let's hope you're plunging into a long cave to a shining new world rather than a bottomless abyss. XD

Oh wait, I just remembered that I actually went to two debuts, haha~
She's closer to me than the first filipina friend I was talking about. I remember we ate cake that her family got with her face printed on it. X'D Haha, the two that I've gone to were semi-casual-ish, but I know of people from school who've had more formal ones. 83

Haha, hope you have fun over the weekend~
I'll probably be in Taiwan once we get in touch again. XD

Also.. I think I've gone/I'm going nutso. >O>;
