Moi
Welcome to my profile, it's not much, but that's ok. So, I guess you came here to learn a little about me, ne?
I'm 19 years old, and a freshman in college. As of right now I am a biology major, and plan to work with animals in my future career most likely studying their behavior. Obviously, I love animals. I have a moody feline named Oreo, and have had rabbits, rats, and a hampster in the past. I'm pretty easy going and friendly, I also enjoy spending some of my time helping others. I love making new friends, too.
I like anime/manga, and am pretty open minded when it comes to genres and series--I'll give anything at least a try. My taste in music seems to go along with my anime and manga addiction, as I do tend to enjoy J-pop/rock, but that doesn't mean I don't like American music, as well. I love all kinds, although I'm not too fond of most rap. Anyway, I mentioned anime and manga so I suppose I'll tell you some of my favorite series. Inuyasha has been a favorite of mine for a while (although I do agree it needs to end), I'm also a fan of Ranma 1/2--I plan on looking into more of Takahashi's works. I like Chobits, and Pita-Ten, as well, both cute stories (Chobits with a bit more adult humor). Excel Saga is rather funny if you like random comedies. I did like Fullmetal Alchemist, although a little sad at times. Currently, I've been watching a new series by CLAMP called Tsubasa Chronicle (aka Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE). It's an interesting series that uses several of CLAMP's former characters and puts them in a whole new plot.
Several CCS characters are in the series, as well as xxxHOLiC, and appearances by characters from Chobits. It's a nice series and still currently ongoing, and up for download on AnimeSuki (only the most recent episodes--seasons 1 and 2 have both been licensed by FUNmation).
I think that's about it...
Oh yeah, please do not send me random friend requests! I like to get to know a person a little before I add them to my friends list.
Also, please do not send me chain letters. Thanks!

Monthly Media: Yuna Ito - I'm here
Happy Early Easter... and Golden Week! Time for this month's new video. Ah yes, another Yuna Ito. Despite her newness to the Jpop scene she's one of my favorite artists. And, for those who didn't see my other Yuna Ito PV back in December, she's actually a US citizen. Born in LA, California and raised in Hawaii. She's half Japanese and Korean, and now obviously lives in Japan. She made her debut in the first NANA movie with the song 'ENDLESS STORY', and also played the half American character Reira. Her single, ENDLESS STORY, actually beat Mika Nakashima's (who played Nana) single 'Glamourous Sky', even though they were both released at different times.
Anyway, enough about the singer, how about that song. 'I'm Here' is really an awesome song, and the first more serious one I've heard from Yuna that wasn't a ballad. The song's the theme for 'UNFAIR-the movie', and there's many scenes of the movie throughout the PV. The song's pretty catchy and the choruses are good dancing music.
I like the PV for the song, but I wish there were less clips from the movie and more music video stuff, like longer dance-scenes and such. Regardless though, it's a good PV and an even better song. The movie looks good, too, one I may look into seeing.
Anyway, here's the tracklist for the single 'I'm Here', which was release March 14th.
1. I'm Here
2. Reason Why
3. Faith -Teardance Remix-
4. I'm Here (Instrumental)
'Reason Why' is the first all English song that wasn't a remake of another song (Yuna redid These Boots Are Made for Walking on the single 'stuck on you'). The song is ok for a b-side, the lyrics are pretty repetitive, and the verses are a little lame, but the melody of the choruses isn't too bad. Not my favorite song of Yuna's, unfortunately. 'Faith' was the a-side from her second single (which was also a theme for a Japanese drama). I like the regular version of 'Faith' better, but the remix is ok.

I'm Here - Lyrics Translation
Beyond the door of isolation, so long
the morning when I stepped foward alone
my look that was a show of courage, to high
I won't make a blur
not running away is always No more
that's more important than freedom, I know
I understand, so now For you, I'll fight
When you're praying, I'll cover up that hand
have a nightmare in that same heat...
Shake down, run down the road you believed in
I'm here, I'm not lost anymore
if you're hurt
if you can live like your inner self to that limit
it's ok if you burn red
Find out, hope will still shine in this chest always
go find out, Can you feel it?
rather than being afraid to lose it,
hold on to one love
beyond the darkness, So I wanna go
just a few meetings so far
sway only in faraway memories
instead of vague separations, to heart
wear the injuries
I won't sink into loneliness, No cry
I have a vow that can't be thrown away
playing with fate is, For you, goes against you
the time when you go back to your beginnings will come one day
I'm believing in tomorrow
Break down, the wish I'm willing upon
I'm here, I won't surrender anymore
if it's reality, in bare skin
a self that you can be proud of is always here
You know, the answer will always Turn out, my heart screams
it's ok to reach out your hand, Can you touch it?
rather than the fleetingness that gathers at night,
hold on to one love
a faraway light, So I wanna go
Shake down, run down the road you believed in
I'm here, I'm not lost anymore
if you're hurt
if you can live like your inner self to that limit
it's ok if you burn red
Find out, hope will still shine in this chest always
go find out, Can you feel it?
rather than being afraid to lose it,
hold on to one love
beyond the darkness, So I wanna go
