hia!
« on: January 05, 2008, 11:50:05 PM »

Hi, I'm obviously a newcomer... I'm a 19 year old from Australia. I love gaming, cosplay, anime, building and repairing PC's, reading,  D&D, Warhammer and being introverted ^-^. I'm a student studying science... Umm I can't think of anything else to say... So I'll leave it there =^-^=

I'm doing general science as all first years do here ^-^ I have applied to get into BioMed and BioChem courses for the up and coming year. First year is always easy it's mainly teaching you stuff you should already know if you payed attention in class. Hope that clarifies things a little.

It's were people dress up as anime and game characters, enter competitions and win prizes ^-^ I made a cosplay of Lulu (FFX) that has won every comp I entered it in as well as a few other winners. It's so much fun  :-D

Umm...  huh.

You know, my first instinct is to say that that's probably the most pathetic hobby I've ever heard of, and I've seen Demo's lovingly handpainted D&D miniatures...

But if I have a strong point as a human being, it's self-analysis.  So I ask myself, why should I feel that way?  It occurs to me that Halloween is my favourite holiday for a reason.  Well, two reasons if you count the Satanism.  And that is that it gives women an excuse to release their inner slut.  So while I think anime is 99% suckage for retards, I have seen enough to know that the cartoon ladies are often dressed to distract their opponents rather than ward off whirling blades and projectiles.  So if badly drawn cartoons are what helps you to show your cleavages in public, I can't in good conscience be against it.

Stay thirsty, my friends.

I go one step further, I have 3 entire, hand painted Warhammer armies ^-^ I use them in D&D as well (LOTR, Spacemarines, as well as Orcs and goblins) <3 them so much, oh and some hand painted and fake grassed terrain.

Weren't figurines some weight-loss product from the 70s?
