i've read a lot of terry pratchett books, so sometimes i use vocabulary used by brits.

in the global spectrum, i put brits at a solid "above average" in my book.

right outside of Hiroshima (awesome city). my dad was working for this british company that was a department of the navy (or worked FOR the navy) so he was living on a miltary base...i took advantage of that and moved over there for 10th and 11th grade. even though it was all american on the military base, my friends and i (and my dad and i too) went off the base all the time to the japanese malls and karaoke bars and pachinko parlors. i went to Kobe, Japan for a tennis tournament and that was the best trip while i was living there. i love kobe. i also went to okinawa and i hiked Mt. Fugi with my dad...that's right outside of tokyo i think. i never did make it tokyo though unfortunately.

my mom ended up getting a job teaching english and moved out there as well. in fact, she's over in japan right now visiting a friend...got a free business class ticket from her cousin who is an executive at Xerox. he flies to japan on business all the time and got the ticket through his company for her. he tried to get me one too, but no such luck maybe next year...


i can't wait to go back there some day. i have a lot of great memories from living there. the best part was they have beer & cig machines on every street corner. hahah when i first got there, i was like, "FUCK YEA!" i went to bars a lot with my friends and they never carded us...i was 16 and getting wasted at japanese bars...it was great times

Anyone who says that English accents are sexy has never spoken to a Scouser.

or watched eastenders, those accents are awful. infact any accent south of the east midlands is (the west mids have the brummies which is terrible)

Thats great. Okinawa is one of the first places i want visit, there are some nice sites to visit and i hear the beaches are nice too After that i have my sights set on tokio (akihabara and shinjoku ... the holly land of all the geeks ) maybe hit a club or two (i hear they have mad parties down there,do though i must say they do have some weird fads lately

I was actualy thinking about trying for the student exchange program my school offers, however wery few get pickedand even with a scholarship that one semester can cost quite a large sum of money. Too large for me sadly, besides i dont have nearly enough energy to try for all perfect scores, even though there would be no better place in the world to study the field that interests me

And about the machines, yeah i heard you can get anything there even used panties still dont know if thats true, even the japanese cant be that ecchi in real life Besides even though im all for beer (is japanese beer any good?) i would rather fill myself up with sake

If you've lived in different countries etc I would consider you a third culture kid.


I hope you've heard that expression before.

Or, dare I say it, a Brummie. Voted the most unpopular accent in the United Kingdom recently, I think.

Some of the worst British accents

England
Geordies - sound silly pet
Scousers - make you check if your wallet is safe
Cockney - annoying as fuck
Yorkshire - annoying as fuck
Birmingham - Makes them sound stupid, all of them

Northern Ireland
Larne - awful accent indeed
East Belfast - hoorbag accent
Culchies (farmer folk) - simple people indeed

Irish
'Want to please everybody' style accent

Welsh
fucking leek loving bastard accents

Scottish
I like Scottish accents, though half the time I can't make out what the ****s are saying
