I have a scratchpad (recycling old office documents) that I carry around in case my hands start to itch. I'd draw anything.. sceneries, new character concepts, different art styles- anything to get boredom out of my system. I get that drive out of my surroundings. I'd flip to the back of the scratchpad in case I had a brainstorm. I'd write bits of info and ideas from the last pages and type them down later.

They want an out-of-the-world guy just like how guys want an out-of-the-world girl. (Guys) Unless you are a bad ass in real life with an outstanding personality, these out-of-the-world guys are only found in anime. (Girls) Unless you sparkle like kawaii desu / whatever the fuck and can leave a huge impression on a guy, these out-of-the-world girls are only found in anime.

I first recommend a culture center called "Gyokusendo Kingdom Village", which you can see how the Okinawans lived in really old times, and I think they had the caves too, and you can tour them. It's like a huge outdoor museum that they make it look like old traditional villages. If you like hiking, there is a place at the very north of Okinawa you can go where they drive you to a certain point and let you hike along scenic trails in the wild, and one of them lets you go on a cliff, that you will be the most northern point in Okinawa. Beaches are always nice in Okinawa, but then again I have only been to them in summer. The water is very tropical-looking, and you can hunt for shells. I remember the ocean water being very nice like room-temperature in summer. They usually have shaved ice and stuff too. There's also an aquarium called Churaumi, that has huge whale sharks and a dolphin show. Whenever I went it was always crowded, though. Then, I definitely recommend Kokusai Doori if you like shopping. You can buy interesting souvenirs there. I remember last time I went they had Okinawa-themed anime keychains like Levi from AOT riding on a pineapple or Titan behind Shuri Castle, and Pikachu with Okinawa attire, etc. They also have an Animate store for anime goods, and especially if you are a girl you will love the stuff in that shop. I know my mom got bored of following me around in there, but I didn't wanna leave. When I was little, I remember going to a water park/swimming pool that had these really huge water slides like roller-coaster size... but I have no idea where or what it is. I also remember a really big arcade that had a ferris wheel. GEO(pronounced gay-oh) stores are the best place for video games, and used ones can be super cheap. I remember buying some DS games as cheap as $2(Kingdom Hearts and Pinky Street). The pinky street game was $2 and even included a doll with it... those dolls normally cost $7, and this was a limited version. They have ostrich farms in Okinawa that you can visit and acutally feed the ostriches. You do have to be careful not to get too close with your hand, but they're adorable how they chew. Also it might make you uncomfortable if you are against animal meat, since they are raised for the purpose of becoming meat. There are also must-try foods... I know there are places where you can get fresh Saataa Aandaagi that is still hot and crispy, it's super good if you love sweet pastries/donuts. Also, the outdoor shopping malls where they have markets selling various stuff, they have so many cheap things you can buy. Super cheap clothes. You can also buy the rare "mochi in a leaf" which I absolutely love but can never find anywhere but Okinawa street vendors. If possible, get the purple "beniimo" flavor mochi-in-a-leaf, since you will not find that outside of Okinawa. The leaf gives it a very unique flavor. You may also see places selling "Taco Rice" which is something Americans living in Okinawa invented... and you can easily make at home too. Clothing is really cheap in Okinawa. I recommend doing clothes shopping especially if you like fancy/lolita-ish clothes like me. There was one shop called Axis-Femme that had really nice clothing for cheap. Normally a coat here in USA will cost over $100, but that fancy coat I bought there which would've been like $200 in the Lolita store here, was only around $70. I know they have a bus system and monorail, but don't use it regularly as we just drive by car. I remember the bus was pretty expensive, like over $2. @_@ But it was very comfy and clean and the bus driver wore a handsome pilot-like suit. I don't know the exact exchange rate, but I like to follow the general rule that 100 yen is about $1 USD. It's usually a little more than $1, by some cents, but I dunno now.

Please, enjoy your stay ^ ^ http://api.ning.com/files/D7OtuoxqP9767ojp5dEEXo1datCQZ1*Kt9dxTBze6aUtZ1viiS28dKvgYJJkQ-kfY5ECmBDuECfng2N3L5qhonMO5lnMu3T*/1wel.jpg

I find stories of young children can make me feel really sad/sweet. Especially stuff like in Aishiteruze Baby, that show has made me internally cry on most of the episodes, and especially since her voice actor is a real child and not a high-pitched falsetto adult voice that most anime kids are given, it really has a genuine emotional feeling to it, especially when she cries... I never actually cry from watching/reading anything, though.

HSoTD wouldn't be so bad if it didn't have the fanservice, but I think most of all I couldn't stand the orange-haired girl... she got on my nerves so badly, I couldn't even endure finishing it. >.< Also agree that Death Note was good. Psychological/thriller anime is pretty rare.

Okay, I've got a request for you denizens of the interwebs. My friend won't play anymore scary games unless our video gets enough likes, If you would assist in the matter i would loves you forever! THIS IS A MATTER OF ENTERTAINMENT PLEASE! primarily mine, but also yours, should you be entertained. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTIDnbry5lE
