I have learned something from learning how to cook salmon, know what it looks like when cooked and then just try to remember the way it looks when you cook it.

I have no worries about balding (have hair I sit on currently).
Being over weight is a family curse I believe (my mom still looks like she is in her last trimester and my dad was over 300lbs the year before he died.)

Tokyo is NOT that expensive really, its a big city and with big cities (think New York) you get big city prices and as with any big city if you know where to go and where to stay you wont loose your wallet!
and
its typhoon season, not hurricane (usa has hurricanes, asia gets typhoons)...typhoon season is the same as hurricane season---april to end of oct.....
(ok now I am pushing for tokyo/hong kong )

actually got a few hours of nice deep sleep last night---and wake up famished!!! (and a weeeeeee bit before my normal awake time too ) had a busy week last week, and was out with a friend yesterday (and then a doc appointment)....so I didnt have a chance to eat a real dinner ....which explains the hunger, sigh.

My mom is a stick and my dad used to be bigger but lost a lot of weight, but the potential to become overweight is there. So ya, sadly I got my dads build and have to work at staying in shape as opposed to my brother, who got my moms build and can eat whatever he wants and stay a twig. >.>

I got a pretty good nights rest last night finally as well. I feel rested though, got a busy day ahead and what not. Into the busy part of the semester now, with tests and papers being due in September. So much fun. >.>

I dislike hardcore powertraders, scammers, and people who try to lie to me about an item's value and call me an idiot when I prove that my price is fair.

And I dislike people who can't read.
Ex. WTS [DED MINIS] =/= Unded miniatures for sale

In my point of view a powertrader is a scammer. I spend very little time trading...I dislike people who try to offer something else...I'm asking for cash, I don't want your mini pet or your weapon (except if it's a panda, but that has never happened).

Let the vacations begin !

if there is an american holiday there is a birthday in my family, that said, we barely send cards to each other any more (though one of my brothers called my on my birthday, hadnt spoken to him since at least 2003.....)
I dont do kids birthdays, enough germs there and (from watching that food channel show) blowing out the candles on the cake gives EVERYONE who eats it the blowers germs, will PASS on that thanks.

snickers?????? I will take a whole cart (and if spookii doesnt what them I will take theirs as well )

I do most of my trades with the merchant, he is fair on pricing and never scams me.

The merchant scams me on my dyes >.<

Kids birthdays are...entertaining. As long as I don't have to babysit, everything is fine.

September and then March/April are busy birthday months for me. In one week in March, me and like 6 of my friends all have birthdays. It's crazy but awesome. We usually have 1 party for the all of us. Quite fun.

They is why there is a Dye Trader Red.

The dye trader is a scammer too ! They are all scammers ! Why won't they give me 10k for a beautiful, marvelous and extremely rare red dye (not joking, I have more black dyes in my storage than red dyes...and I always pick up a red dye since I need them for my armors).

Woke up at 7 am to get a call saying my delivery will only come at 1 pm...

Yes, and gum gives cancer, and pacifiers, and you get germs by walking outside, don't believe all the shít they say, all they are doing, are trying to scare people off.

You never shake hands either then?, there are far more gems on your hands, than in your toilet, think about that. And that is when you have washed them..

Blowing out candles is tradition, and i've never been sick once by it, and my family is on 150+ people.

You missed the "kids" part Azzer. Kids don't blow on candles...they kind of spit (not all of them, but most of them). As for the germs, well there are more germs on your keyboard than on your toilet seat. The main difference is that you don't lick your keyboard or your toilet seat (and if you do, please let me think that you don't xD) but with a kid's cake...unless you are allergic to it you at least have to take a bite.

And governments (almost all of them) like to scare their population to have better "control" over them. Sometimes it's logical (like the meth project), sometimes things get overblown out of proportions...

no I dont shake hands (men do that not women), I dont use toliets outside of my home and I dont believe everything I hear---the birthday cake thing was a science test they did on a food network tv show food detectives:
Does blowing out candles contaminate birthday cakes?- Yes, bacteria grew on the test cake greater than on the control, and even more with the greater # of candles on a cake. However, most micro-organisms in the human mouth are not harmful, as long as the candle-blower is healthy.....
most kids are germ factories (I have yet to see my 2 nieces when they have NOT have some bug), beside I cant really have cake anymore (TOOOOO much sugar especially the frosting--where all those germs get too....)

also
I dont use pens at the checkout that are left there, I use my own I have with me at all times.
I open common doors with either my sleeve or gloves (in the winter).
The ONLY person who uses my keyboard is me (and rarely my husband), as well as the toliet (--which is cleaned with bleach regularly)....NO one else comes in my house.
I ALWAYS have anti-bacteria liquid with me to kill anything I might have gotten that I missed, if I dont have it (its empty ) I make sure to wash my hands in HOT water with soap (and never use those common towels that supposedly are cleaned between users, yeah right....use paper towels, or better yet, I wipe my wet hands on my own socks--makes them useful or the hot air dyers--turn on with elbow).

Yes I dont like to get other peoples germs, I have enough to fight on my own without getting others and my immune system is quite over worked right now so keep them to yourself (whenever possible). Trying to get (and stay) healthy is my main mission right now....

Germs, they are unavoidable, everyone knows that. But ya, kids spit on their cake which is a little bit more than shaking hands germ-wise. Lots of bacteria in your mouth and throat.

I think Snograt solved your problem then Malice. Skiing in Vegas it is.

Cosy, i did not say you were not right, but rather that i've never gotten sick with those birthday cakes, and my immune system is far from good... you can test all you want, but they don't test all 6 billion people in the world, a test is where they take maybe 5000 people out of 6 billion, and say "90% of ALL people in the world is this and that" which is wrong.


Ok Cosy, you're a tad too carefull, but hey, it's good that people are different, i like that.

I've drank from the same beer as, lets see, my 2 uncles, my dad, my mom, my 2 sisters, my 2 brothers, 5 of my friends, 11 different women.. yet i've not catched anything so far..

Also, women give hugs, atleast to me, as i've heard around a million times now, "you're like a cuddly bear" >.<.


I'm just one of those people that don't give a flying fúck about germs, since i've never been sick from it, come on, i lick on bricks, train windows, and other random shit, and i'm good and well.


also correction: my immune system is insanely awesome.

drinking alcohol is different---it kills the germs so you are much safer. I do drink from things my spouse has and we dont seem to pass colds etc to each other, but I would rather be safe than sick (and colds usually wipe me out---since they combine with some of my current problems)...and when I get sick its not just for the 10 days...its for MONTHS, so yeah PRE-caution is a big part of my life.
