I have lots of post ideas, believe me....

But after writing essays for the whole morning I'm not in the mood to unleash my creative literary genius on you all. So....

On Audrey's blog they're talking about hair. I love hair. I have normal asian hair. That''s kind of depressing.
Everybody else has so many different beautiful shades of brown, blond, auburn, everything.

We just have.....black.
Yay.

Unless you're one of those Korean/Hong Kong preppy chicks with the super-pale skin and multicolored hair and fancy clothes.

Like so.


That reminds me. People think us Asians are all the same. No, we're not. (Are you Japanese? I'm Chinese. Can you speak Japanese? No, I tell you.) And there's a whole lot of Japanese envy around America. Everyone wants to be Japanese, go to Japan, blah. 
What about us Chinese people? 
The fashion capital of the world is in Hong Kong, not Japan. We were writing on paper when everyone else was still wearing leaves.


So there's my post about not much. Got to go write essays.

    I'm Filipino! Asians UNITE!!

    I know there's this big Japanese thing going on... *shrugs*

    I understand your hair thing, believe me... mine looks black, but if I bleached it it would be red, oddly enough. But seriously, I worship anyone who has lighter hair than I do :P

    I'm totally white. Just scottish (and only by my roots), yaaay. Boo...D; I have this secret that I wish i was japanese. Just so I can pull of the preppy japanese school girl look. xD This is what I get for reading too many mangas.

    Hey, guys. It doesn't matter how you look. Amaranthine, I really wasn't trying to make you feel bad! I just wanted some people's opinions!

    I'm Irish, so I wouldn't know much about China or Japan. -_-

    To tell you the truth, I love the Chinese people's black hair. I had a friend with /real/ black, curly hair. I thought it was prettier then brown hair.

    I know what you mean about it always being about Japan and not China. In all the movies, they are always Japanese and never Chinese. I wonder why...

    I'm mostly Italian, with some Irish and Scottish mixed in.

    And that is very odd how no one really mentions China in movies, just Japan. Maybe it's because they think Japan is more "modern". I don't get it....

    I think having black hair is really cool, sometimes I wish my hair was black.


    No Alex, I haven't seen it, but I really want to.

    Why don't people talk about New Zealand and Suriname more?

three amazing--and relatively little known--psalms

So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God,      belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you, 2       for you answer our prayers.      All of us must come to you. 3  Though we are overwhelmed by our sins,      you forgive them a

Howl's Moving Castle book analysis

“I feel ill. I'm going to bed, where I may die.” ― Howl, upon having a cold. I've decided to call them "book analysis" because they're not really reviews that tell you how much I liked the book, rather,  me taking the book apart and looking at different aspects of it for my own entertainment. Read on. Also, read Howl's Moving Castle. This is the original cover of Howl's Moving Castle and I have got to say it is the UGLIEST thing I have ever seen. I like the new one much better. Ahem. First of all, I should point out that Howl's Moving Castle is a children's book. However, I like to hold all books I read to the same standard, after all, they're written by adults. I had biased expectations of Howl's Moving Castle from the start, because I kept hearing from several sources how amazing, how fantastic, how hilarious and how romantic the book was, and hearing the perfectly gorgeous soundtrack by Joe Hizazi(somethin

Ciel Phantomhive vs. Artemis Fowl

  Don't laugh. XD The similarities between the two characters are so distinct and obvious that comparison is inevitable for anyone who's read/watched both series. I seriously thought when I first noticed Black Butler(more popularly referred to as Kuroshitsuji) that it was literally an anime adaption of Artemis Fowl.  Other people have read Artemis Fowl and thought "CIEL HAS A CLONE??!?" So I thought I'd outline some of the differences and analyze who would win. XD Similarities: Appearance:  This is the first similarity, and one of the most major, because if they didn't look so darn alike I don't think the comparison would have been as striking. The above picture of Artemis is a fanart, because there aren't really any good pictures of Artemis, and the manga style makes it more obvious. They are both from the British Isles and have black hair and blue eyes. Both of them lose/change/switch an eye resulting in two different colors.
