No prob Costello, it looks really cute. And you get a cookie for being the 1st. *presents cookie*

No problem, *hands milk, pats Costello* ^_^

Thanks Ceri, I've already accomplished much of your criteria. In fact, I'm in a cross-country team, and keeping up with my grades. My social life ain't faltering either. basically, it's awesome for me.

Yeah, it's okay. As long as they don't plan to use your ass afterward.

Oh, I hear you man. *nods* I hear ya :P

Awww, it's okay, *pats Cericon*

The Profile pic? That's a lovely shot of Kaoru and Hikari from Ouran High School Host Club

If you like harem anime, where an unsuspecting girl fuddles her way into an all male gentleman club, this may be the right one for you. It's also mostly a comedy.

nope, just bi. lol

Acually its been that way from 06-07. It's been through a lot of changes though.

Ahh, I took the honest way, I borrowed some of the manga from my friends, and rented the DVD.

Lol, not necessarily kick the other person's butt. Moreover, you should probably try to avoid the conflict. Be the better man and walk away. Don't use force unless you have to (remember, if it's for self-defense, it's a plausible reason).

No matter how much they tease you, you should never give in. Getting angry and kicking their butt will only give them the satisfaction. Never use violence unless it is totally needed. Show them that you are not trailer-trash and that you have a mind. Be a gentleman, and show them that these small things aren't gonna piss you off, and walk away. Walk away confidently.

Now, if any of them attacks you (whilst walking away), you may fight back (just enough to let the guy let go of you). If you ever get caught, you can declare that it was for self- defense.

Also, friends are a good asset to you. You wanna make friends for who they are, not how they look, if they're rich, etc. Find people who share the same interest as you. This way, you will have people to trust, and back you up. Just talk to people nicely, and you'll get to know them.

However, if some of them are asses and douchebags (which you will encounter), then just walk away. If they're not gonna treat you right, then they're not worth your time.

Also, befriend the teachers. This doesn't mean to act like a complete pet, just talk to them. Make sure that they know that you are committed to get a good education, and show them respect. Eventually they will warm up, and will hand some opportunities over (like maybe some tutor time, help, or even better, some backup if you get in trouble...)

You're gonna get some times when you're gonna get angry. Like seriously, Middle school was my worst period ever. I had nice grades, and a small niche of friends. However, most of the classmates drove me to the brink of crazyness. I got so angry at times, landing myself into the principal's office, getting suspended.

Then I realized that I havent been expressing my emotions at all that time. Whenever you feel angry, you need to find a way to express your emotions, safely. Do push-ups, paint pictures, run 10 laps. Anything that will get the steam out, without pissing/hurting anyone off.

Lastly, explore yourself. What do you like? What are you're interestS? Are you interested in learning how to ______? The more that you get to know yourself, the more you will be able to make your life better (makes sense, you have to know a patients symptoms before you can treat them). Stay true to yourself, and make values and ideals to live by. You can even change 'em too (just make sure it's for the good).

Well dude, I'll be turning in for the night.
Peace
