I an just going to talk to her tomorrow, I am noteven going give myself a choice

Haiiiiii, Akuhime-sama. I just wanted to tell you that your signature is a bit on the large side. It should be 250px tall x 800px wide for the maximum size. The last thing I want to see is you getting in trouble for having a sig that's too big, so do you think you could resize it? Thanks! :>

I have no idea... XD

Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason. It's true that Chinese people eat dogs (I don't know about cats). It's because they were poor, and when you're poor, you'd eat anything to survive. That's where it started from. These days, Chinese people eat dogs because it's been done so for generations. If you ask me, it's better not to eat meat at all (I would be a vegetarian if my mom would actually let me -_-), and it really annoys me when people think eating one animal is cruel while eating another isn't. Here in the western lands, dogs are loyal pets, not food. Most would see something wrong with the Chinese eating dogs. But they eat meat themselves. How is it justified that it's not okay to eat dogs when it's okay to eat chickens, cows, or pigs?

It's the same thing with killing things in general. I see spiders and ants squashed to death everyday just because they're there, but when it comes to a hamster or a bunny or something, "they're too cute to be killed." That hamster could bite the mess out of someone's arm, and they probably still wouldn't kill it. On the other hand, a totally non-lethal spider could just be sitting in the corner of a room, minding its own business and keeping the house clean from other pests, and that same person would have no problem giving it a broom to the face...

*sigh* Anyway, yeah, from what I've been told, the written language is still the same.

That's exactly what it is

A test? XD That... actually doesn't sound like too bad of an idea at the moment.

Yeah, I agree with you on the drinking thing. I looked up "how do midgets drive" since I was actually curious myself... Turns out that there are specially-designed cars for them that have special controls for driving!

I never actually asked what part of China we're from. You see, my great-grandparents lived in China. My grandparents also lived in China for a time, and then they moved to Vietnam. My parents grew up in Vietnam before fleeing to America ('cause of the Vietnam War). So while I might not know what part of China we're from, I can tell you that we come from south Vietnam.

There are over 100 different dialects of Chinese. They're not so much dialects as they are different languages, the way I see it. I can't speak Chinese (since the previous two generations of my family lived mostly in Vietnam), but from what my family tells me, they're so vastly different that they don't even share the same words. So I'm guess that yes, if you come from south China and move to north China, or vice versa, you wouldn't understand a thing they're saying...

not good to be honest

ok...

oh, that sucks

ANYWAYS! how are you?

Yeah, but that's exactly it. I could go on and on about how laws are abused, broken, or pushed these days, but... Not in the mood to type out a wall of text. XD In the eyes of the law, maturity doesn't matter. It's how old you are. The moment you turn 18, you're allowed to vote -- but what if you're a complete idiot who doesn't know a thing about what your vote could potentially do to the country? Following common sense, you shouldn't be allowed to vote... but according to the law, it's okay.

I'm Chinese/Vietnamese, though my family follows more with with Chinese culture and traditions. The Vietnamese is biologically part of our blood, but not with most of any of the stuff we do. :3

i have tried more than once

I tried talking to her, i failed

I love you signature, it made my day. Did you draw it or did someone else?

I see. X3 Some people are just too caught up on "Today's the day I turn [insert age here], so now I can do things that I couldn't have done yesterday!" -_-;

Yeah. I don't know if it's because I'm Asian, but apparently, compared to Americans, Asian parents are really strict. I wouldn't know, since this is basically how my life has been. 8:00 is perfectly fine by me. Same with my bedtime. There was this one show once I think, about how strict some parents were. They were listing out all of these things that didn't seem strict at all. But of course, it would be strict to them because they've had more freedom in their life. For me, if I'm out somewhere that's not a relative's house, I have to call home every few hours (it used to be every hour, but I'm a little older now XP). There has to be at least one girl there, the parents MUST be home, and I can never be alone with a guy. Even if it's at my house. I have to leave the door wide open. That, plus the 8:00 curfew and the bedtime until I'm like, I dunno... 30.

Now it probably sounds like I'm complaining, but I'm not. XD Like I said, this is how it's been, well, forever -- if I was raised in a different household, things probably wouldn't go as smoothly between me and my parents, haha. But I've realized that the older I've gotten, the more people look at me like " Your parents are depriving you of your freedom!"

Probably the only real complaint I have against their "strictness" is the fact that they won't let me walk down to the end of my street without one of them with me. And we live two car-lengths away from the end of the street.
