I'd love some new friends, but... - 06-22-2009, 12:54 AM

I don't know... it seems like people on these boards only respond to girls and Japanese people. I would love to meet new people who could become friends, but it's like, people only talk to those they can get something from, and I hate that.

About me:

I live in NYC, so if you're from there, and you want to talk to an interesting guy, send me a message.
I've studied Japanese for the past 2 and a half years, but because I don't have any Japanese friends, I can't practice speaking it... I can only study with my textbooks... and anime. :(

But other than anime, I write and draw manga, I play basketball, I work out, and I'm trying to learn to play guitar, but that might be too much. Japanese is already kicking my ass. lol.

Favorite anime: Chrome Shelled Regios, Gundam 00, Haruhi, Neon Genesis Evangelion (I'm downloading, er, "purchasing" it right now.), Chobits (I love Chii...), and like, everything else.

Music: I love Electronica, Prog rock (Tool), Hip-Hop, R&B... lots of stuff.

I don't know... I'm not gonna put my whole life story in here (though I seems like I already have). But if you're looking for a real friend, and not somebody who just wants something from you, hit me up. I'm on AOL/AIM at "thechocokat". or, you can e-mail me at [email protected] .

Hope to hear from you guys soon. Later.

I know what you mean and I speak japanese/Korean/Navajo but not many people around here speak it just a few asians here too eh.
I also play guitar, drums and I like working out (mostly jogging and Karate/Tae Kwon do/ Aikido/Jiujitsu).
Pm me if you want.


I'm not racist . . . I hate everyone equally.

Dude, I know exactly what you mean, I thought the same thing as I was glancing through most of the ads, I was stunned for a second, lol xD

That's 'mmazing that you've been studying that long, I'm jealous - I have been trying to find classes or studying resources where I'm from, and there is basically nothing, which is a drag. Me and a few of my friends are planning on going to Japan in a few years, and we have been wanting to get some of the language down for, well, obvious reasons. Have you ever been to Japan?

Kudos on creating manga, that's great - what kinds of manga do you generally like to write/draw? Ooh, you gotta love guitar - well, on your plate, it might be a bit much, but once you learn, it's 'mmazing! I am still learning, but I can play a few songs and do my chords quite well, and I am completely in love with it!


Feel free to hit me up here anytime, or through AIM or something - I'll add you, fersure! You seem like a cool kid, and an original one at that :]
