Strange enough, I do feel a little happier now. Just kind of reminds you that there's still some sort of beauty in the world... even though it's not really my world anymore, apparently.

It bothers me how easy I accepted those things. Hell, I'm sure someone could tell me that Santa Claus existed, and I'd probably believe them. I guess maybe it just

I miss TV too. It's really boring without all the stuff I'm used to back home.

[notyourrookie]

Got that right. I mean, I can't even so much as listen to music here.

I'm almost starting to miss school, too...at least I had something to do all day.

But I don't miss it enough to want to go to one now.

[notyourrookie]

Yeah? What kind of school did you go to?

*written in Japanese: Nishihama Junior High School*

It's...okay. Kind of normal.

[notyourrookie]

..uh. I can't read Japanese. Sorry.

[redhaired_anita]

Oh, I'll try.

Nishi-hama ... Middle School

my Japanese isn't really good.

But then again.. maybe I can.

[notyourrookie]

Whoa, whoa. Take it easy. I didn't mean anything by it.

[redhaired_anita]

...sorry, it's something my sisters would say a lot. Almost everybody here looks older than me, anyway.

[notyourrookie]

Hey, just because you're young doesn't mean anything. I've had my life saved by a 12-year-old before.

[redhaired_anita]

What happened?!

[notyourrookie]

Let's just say she pulled my ass out of the fire.

[redhaired_anita]

Like your house was on fire or something?

[notyourrookie]

Not quite. It was more like a runaway train that was about to explode, if you'll believe it. She stopped it.
