how much is the same, how much is different?

Tue Oct 6, 2009, 1:11 AM
so, i've been over here in china for a month now. obviously its different. yeah. but it's really interesting to see how much i can relate to, and how much i find completely different Oo".

anyone ever studied overseas before? over here, looooooooooooots of weird, horny exchange students here. seems like all you have to do is talk with them once, get their number and eat lunch together, then ask them out the next time you see them. you meet someone new, one of the first questions asked is if you have a boyfriend/girlfriend or not. you might think it's just a casual conversation question, but wooooooo, they have other ideas xD. nightclubs, my god, creepers galore D=. (yes, if you're homophobic, stay weeeeell clear). suggestions wanted, please enquire within.

anyway, apart from weird people hanging about, i've managed to make friends with french, american, african, korean, japanese, saudi arabian, hungarian, thai and some others. loooooots of different people, but speaking to korean and japanese is the best =). why? no, not just because they're korean/jap ==". they can't speak english, so we're forced to use chinese.
managed to meet a few of them actually when i was playing some anime stuff on the keyboard there. "oohhhh, shi suzumiya haruhi ma?" love the worldwide anime love <3

performed at the international students festival last week, with time of your life and wonderwall. seriously, when a uni asks for volunteers to perform something, expect big crowds, fireworks and large cameras. i thought i did horribly, but a lot of people seem to want to play guitar now ^^". also last week, joined the martial arts club (showing me how to twirl a stick real fancy 8D), the anime club, and the COSPLAY club. not sure what a cosplay club does (perhaps make cosplays together?), but i'm eager to find out =). anyone have a 'cosplay club' at their uni back home?
yeahhhhh, study habits could be a bit better. once i managed to use facebook in china though, my attention sorta shifted >.>. starting to draw in class now, got inspiration from another friend drawing in class. really feels like school all over again xD.

andddddddd, i finally found the final member for our elemental gelade group 8D!!! now we have a full crew for next year, just have to finish the costumes and props and wigs and...><. and recently finished code geass. it is the <3 . if you haven't watched this series yet, do so now. put away your tsubasa reruns and gundam fandom, watch this NAO 8D.

hope everyone is having a ball doing whatever they're doing. love watching your new artworks/cosplays and listening to your whining in journals <3.

  • Listening to: Muse - Resistance, Undisclosed Desires
  • Reading: Chinese for stupid students like myself
  • Watching: Code Geass, Gurren Lagaan

I'm an 'anime enthusiast' who loves drawing, cosplaying, and playing music. Went to my first convention back in 2005, started cosplaying for fun in 2007 and have had a great time ever since.
I have the most fun cosplaying in groups, and am currently working on a manga which i hope to one day publish.
Meeting new people is awesome.
