Hey look, Japan made a movie about me!
Raising up my Pikachu's level to 94 and winning a six straight Pokeman battle caused me to become a Pokeman master.
Joining AF improved my spelling. Hopefully it will do the same for many others -cough-.
I have many...
I used to be a naive teenage girl who didn't know how to get along with people, especially my family. My mom is a very defensive listner as no matter what I say, she gets defensive and she could actually make a quake in the house. And the words she says are often offensive. My dad has a gun, and he has very weird anger. He can pull out the gun anytime and send me to heaven. It's been more than 10 years, and these experiences told me to shut up when things gets serious and never ever get in the way. Whenever things happening or if there are arguements going on, I would stay quiet. If my mom asks me for criticisms, I would shut up. So it makes me seems like a careless person when there are serious things going on in my family.
I've had gone through high school boy-girl relationships, and now I could see how naive I was to trust people so easily. Even though I'm in a relationship with someone who I'm engaged to now, but now I can see that I knew nothing about relationships when I was in high school. Now I know how to make the relationship a better relationship, and be able to know how to get along with my fiance.
As we all know that political or sex orientation-related topics may lead people to serious arguments. I experienced having discussions about politics, or gay-or-straight topics, people just get so serious and be flaming each other for different point of views. So now I rather stay out of those serious discussions that brings people in to flame. If people ask me for opinions, I would say that I'm out of any topics about politics, or if you ask me if I'm straight, yes I am, but I see no reason to be offended.

In 7th grade, my ex-director made me feel like I was worth something when he kept trying to get me to come to my high school where they "needed me." I was moving at the beginning of my 8th grade year, and what he told me stuck in my mind, so I refused to live in a house that wasn't in my school district. I could have gone to a school and received four marching band State rings, but I don't know if I would have even stayed in band if I went to that school (but the house was nice; hot tub and pool in the backyard). I wouldn't go back and change my decision, either. I am glad I made that choice to be a brat at that time in my life. I love all the experiences I have had at my school and all the people that I have gotten to know.
Spent a lot of time with my brother -> Video games -> English -> More video games -> Computer games -> Internet -> Anime -> AF -> International School -> Today?
It didn't take much. Sexual intercourse and an overtax on abortion made me what I am today.
Moving here, Living with Americans, Living with cousins/not being the only child anymore, Meeting diff cultured pplz, meeting my best friend last year, living away from my mum, and rest of real blood family & many more. Mostly everything changes a person as life goes on =.=

The Guidance Office in my old middle school has changed me for the worse. I am now anti-social, keeping all of my feelings inside me. That office made me hate school, and also be afraid of them.
Sig and avvie set by the wonderfully talented and amazing Bou. <3
Featuring the laptop I always used to complain and talk about in chat.
I may not use it anymore, but I still have it!
I would say that these are things that made me the way I am -- for the better:
- my favorite books
- losing over 60 pounds
- my mother (and my family)
- learning to believe in myself
- being accepted into UCONN
- music (and the internet, of course)
- being born in a middle class new haven town
- surviving one of the darkest storms in my life
- being introverted, and therefore introspective
- my sister, my friends who have been there for me
- constantly moving and changing schools when I was smaller
- losing my mother at age 9 due to malignant melonoma (skin cancer)
- special, inspirational people who have taught me values and respect for others
- being bullied in school and from other people who I have trusted and cared about -- and some I haven't; and realizing that their words and opinions don't mean a damn
well, i've tried to only include key factors as to why I am the person I am today. The rest isn't really important. ;P

Experiences that changed my life and how.
1. Grandmother died-
This effects me like it effects most people. Even with a great loss I'm thankful. If this had not occurred I'd still be who she wanted me to be rather than my own self. Which then led to me being able to be friends with the greatest people in the world.
2. Internet-
Through the internet I obtained great knowledge of HTML, Design, Video, & more. I am thankful I learned these things and they have come in handy many times and it's something I enjoy. It also led me into anime, which in turn kept me off the streets and away from drugs <3 go anime!!!! ;D
3. Meeting a certain someone-
This someone is not my boyfriend, just a really good someone ^^. But thinks to them they provided me with wonderful memories that can not be replaced. I owe a lot to them. I often filmed our time together at school and made short music videos to them with my video editing knowledge. Through that I decided I wanted to go to college to professionally make music videos. <3 go future!!!! :P
