More like the talk of Nagare. XD Not that it makes it sound any better.

That sounds fun! :D Safe travels!

XP Pst! It's a secret. XD And I think we all do that from time to time. When it's winter, we wish the summer would get here. When it's summer, we want winter, or at least Fall.

I'm not a huge fan of replacing folks due to inactivity. You never know what's going on in their lives, and it's hard enough finding a new team. I'd prefer if we didn't kick him out. D: And nah, we were one character off from being a full-on female team, but Juni's assured us that we can crossdress him if we want. XD

That's great! :D And a little sad, when you think about it. I mean, there are some people you wouldn't mind seeing never again, and then there are those that you'll start to miss. Very confusing stuff, huh? XD

Oooh, I hear you. >.< It's been awful around here. Triple digit temperatures! It's bad. That's why I'd take advantage of the rain. I like to sit out on the porch and watch it come down. It's really pleasant. :3

Thanks! It's been a long time coming, but we've finally managed to get a thread going. It's pretty much over now, though. ^^ Shizu's going to be away from the rp for about a month. I have no idea what's happened to our third Genin, but I hope his rper comes within the next month.

OOo~ Prom! :3 How was it?

What, is it raining a lot or something? o.o I'd take advantage of that, bro.

That's so awesome! :D I can't wait to hear the finished product.

Nah, we got out of that thread a while back. Now, I'm in a Genin team thread that we've been waiting to do for awhile now. :3

Summer Break! Yeah! *high fives* :D

I watched it in English. ^^ It just seemed more convenient than watching it in Japanese.

Thank you too. ^^ I really appreciate the words of encouragement.

As for practical experience. . .I don't think so. I mean, just about anyone can start out with the courses and all. There are a few things you've got to take care of first, though, like getting the latest vaccines, learning CPR, taking some sort of written exam to test your basic skills in math and English.

To our futures! Cheers! *holds up glass*

That's an amazing ambition, Dracius! :O Seriously! Not enough young people are interested in politics in the first place. That's very commendable of you. I wish you luck. ^^ *bro fist*

That's my problem. I don't really have anything specific I'd like to be. >.< We have a nursing program around here, and I've been advised to try that out. It'd only take a year to complete the LVN program. I could get a job doing that, making a living and all, and if I don't like it in the end. . .well, I've only wasted a year or two. But I don't know. I should try it. At least it's something.

You should have plenty of time to get to know the other members. We've got a lot of friendly rpers, so you're bound to know someone to invite.

A job is an excellent way to get some experience working with folks and socializing. Let us not forget the cash too. It'll definitely help when I need to pay for college. I didn't actually study anything specific. I earned a couple of Associate degrees that are well-rounded. ^^ What're you interested in studying, if I may ask?

If you're a Konoi, you get an automatic invite. The AfroNnja actually has to send you an OOC invite in order for your rpc to be able to participate. The person invited is allowed to bring a guest (of any Village), though. ^^

Not at all. I like hearing about other people. In fact, it bothers me more when people answer with a "not much" when I ask them "what's up?". XD I actually graduated from Junior College a year ago, hence my dilemma. Continuing my education is definitely an option. The problem is that I don't know what I want to do. o.o

It really depends on the rpc. If your guy is the type of person who'd just stick by the punch bowl the entire time and is too antisocial to interact with anyone, it probably won't be so much fun. It's worth giving it a try if you're ever invited, though. ^^ If you don't like it, it's not like you can't leave at anytime.

A little self-doubt is normal, but I bet you did great. ^^

Partying down, huh? >3

Me? I'm probably going to get a job. It's what I need to do actually. I feel like a total bum right now. o.o
