Plastic! Plastic is infinitely more fun, because you can chew on it. Why suffer testosterone poisoning if you don't want to? We should find a way to realify Pakkun. Then you could have your dog. And he'd be already trained. In numerous skills.

plastic rocks. and i don't have to feel the burden of owning a trinket with the price tag of a luxury car. i once dreamed it was plausible, and now i see how unnecessary it is.

though a diamond IS supposed to represent a love for all eternity... hmm... (doubt plastic conveys the same message.)

a pug would be FAN-FRIGGIN-TASTIC. and i'd bring him to random anime conventions and trap me my own personal kakashi and ravage him.

It's very hard to give boys who don't exist in reality diamonds though... If you do find a Kakashi worth ravaging, all you'd really need to do is pay him for a mission in cheap porno novels.

that is sooo true. i guess you could write yourself in a fanfic, but i can't stand the people who do that. true, i've daydreamed about a shino-jules-sasuke-genma-iruka-kakashi orgy, but i'd be damned if i portrayed those thoughts for the entire world to see... *snerks*

kakashi would love "borders"...

Ugh. I wrote a lot here (two paragraphs and counting) but LJ ate it. Blah. Anyway. TT^TT

If somebody told that to me, it would probably bounce off my egoshield, because it's probably true. Most people right now are just too ambitious - they keep wanting more, more, and more, because they want to be happy, but they forget that to be happy, you have to be content with your life to be happy - and to actually stop, and see how beautiful your life is, irregardless of the fact that you're missing things that you'd rather have.

Don't get me wrong, a little ambition is fine, but not too much, because it will drain the life outta you, until all you see is the sign "This ain't enough, I gotta have more!" - besides, can you bring all your wealth to Heaven?

And WOW. I thought I was the only one who wanted plastic~! Unfortunately though, the only cereal prizes we get here are toys, or uhh, puzzles, which confuzzles me mightily.

lj eats a lot of text these days... it's so confusing!!!

*looks at her entire anime/manga collection and realizes that these are useless in heaven*

my priorities are skewed, at least to most of the people in my age group. i can honestly say that i never like being the best at anything, because there's so much pressure to remain that way. which is why i like being weird and dorky... it's my crutch, in a sense~!!

and i'd be a little ticked off if my intended spent money that he didn't have on a trinket. sadly, you wouldn't believe how many people i know took up a loan at the bank to buy an engagement ring. it's really upsetting, especially since the promise of a commitment should be enough...

bah.

if my guy couldn't afford platinum/gold/silver, i'd sure as hell be happy with fiberglass/hardened silicone/a hardware bolt. wahahahahaa~!!

Maybe LJ's hungry? I sure am, these days.. TT^TT I'm craving something creamy, like a chocolate milkshake - which is a sure sign that I'm reaching my period, bah.

I feel ya, girlfriend - in my age group, I'm usually labeled childish, dorky, weird - just because I'd rather buy gashopon figures and plushies and keychains rather than makeup, or trinkets. TT^TT WHAT IS WRONG WITH BUYING A NEJI KEYCHAIN, ANYWAY??

Actually - as long as we're committed to each other, it doesn't matter. I mean, why does it have to be a ring? Wouldn't a bracelet work just fine? *laughs* I'd even accept a paperclip ring.

But if it's a heirloom engagement ring, I wouldn't say no. XD

oooh... chocolate milkshake... though my tastebuds crave strawberry...

have you ever tried the godiva chocolate milkshake? it's heaven. godivalicious. because godiva sets the standard for what chocolate ought to taste like (although dove chocolates are creamy-melt-in-your-mouth-not-in-your-hands good, too)...

hmmm... i'm fairly equal with the makeup/toy buying, but yeah... i don't have much by the way of jewelry. although my name in chinese means jewelry. go fig. maybe if keychains constituted as pieces of jewelry it would make sense, but for the time being, i have over 100 or so anime keychains, 3 pairs of earrings, 3 rings, 3 watches (that i never wear now that my cell is with me at all times), and one toe ring that i KNOW is in my room somewhere...

ooh- heirloom engagement ring... pwetty. i mean, if i HAD to get a diamond, i prefer the princess, emerald, and brilliant cuts... O_O

thank you!

as nice as the ring is that he got me, I feel like I'm gonna have a panic attack everyday...

because I'm one of those people who loses EVERYTHING

I'm, thinking safety deposit box to keep it in, and cheap knock off to wear and lose...

ahahahahhaa, i'm the type of person who loses everything, too. like this morning, i lost a pretty important set of documents, and had to beg someone to submit another one in it's stead. my workspace is littered with toys and papers, and i freak more when my collection is out of place than when i'm missing a sheet. go fig.

a replacement ring would definitely be a good idea... you wouldn't have to feel as guilty, that's for sure...

or you could always crazy-glue it to your finger. how's THAT for commitment?!! lol~!!
