3 important things: 1. I've been busy lately so I haven't been watching that much Anime. I only watch licensed Anime now so no more illegal fansubs for me. I don't want to steal from the creators anymore.
2. Please stop sending me club invites for stuff I don't like or support. Ex: If it's a club about where to watch fansubs, I won't join.
3. I'm very strict when rating my Anime & Manga. I have only 11 series on both lists combined rated 9s & 10's. Monster is the only anime/manga that is rated 10.

About me:
My name is Jeannette, and I was born in the 80's, in Chicago, Illinois. I now reside in Wisconsin. I moved to Wisconsin when I entered high school.
Anyways, I'm not watching too much Anime or reading that much Manga right now because I'm really busy. I'm working at a new job and trying to stay in shape. I like animals, traveling, shopping and art. I also watch a lot of baseball during the summer. I actually like baseball more than Anime, so when the baseball season starts, I watch less Anime. I love music too. I listen to almost all kinds of different genres. I hate rap/hip-hop, R&B, like 80% pop(Britney Spears-ugh), & country(though I like a few artists). I mostly listen to all kinds of rock(especially 70's & 80's like Def Leppard), all kinds of Metal, and oldies(50's/60's). I also listen to some Spanish, J-pop/rock, blues, classical, opera, & easy listening. I'm willing to give anything a chance, except for rap. >_> Anyways, I'm am most obsessed with female fronted metal!

About my user name:
I used my 4 most favorite male characters from the Gundam Seed seris. Two from the first one(Kira Yamato & Athrun Zala) and two from the second one, Destiny(Shinn Asuka & Auel Neider).
1. The first 3 letters of each characters first name. Kira Athrun Shinn Auel
2. Kira and Athrun appear first in Gundam Seed(they appear in Destiny too). Shinn and Auel don't appear until Seed Destiny. So, since Kira and Athrun appear first, they go first, in my name. kirAth
3. I did it on purpose to have Athrun and Auel appear second to their partner and have the first letter in their name (A) in CAPS.
kirAth shiAue
4. One character has his whole name in there, and thats Kira. kirAth shiAue
I also did that on purpose, because he is my #1 most favorite male character from the Gundam Seed seris. It's the most original name I came up with(early in 2006), and it's now my main forum name. I don't really think of it as a name with favorite characters anymore. To me it sounds like it's own name.

Ah well that majoirly sucks :( . I know how it is though. Well at least you still got baseball to hold yah over until yah can buy Princess Tutu. Tell me when you buy it again :) . I've been watching (moslty re-watching ) both Maze and Cowboy Bebop. I've forgetn how much I loved these shows!!
also the cubs are just being dramatic about the whole 100 years. what other team can claim they havent won a world series in 100 years, but have won a world series. No other team can.
Besides most teams do the old 10 or 20 year gap, 100 just sounds so much cooler.
i get that from cousin all the time. He grew up here in minnesota and tells me ive lived here long enough that i should be cheering for minnesota teams. Then i ask him how many super bowls the vikings have won and he shuts up.
I do that all the time, my brother picked me up a sox shirt when they won the world series a few years ago. Love getting pissed off stares from all the twins fans.
hehe, yeah i get that with the vikings and the twins. Only minnesota team i like is the Wild. And can you truely get upset at people who choose at their own free will to put giant foam cut outs of cheese on their heads. I mean they arent the brightest bulbs in the world.
yeah i get sick of spending all this money to collect a series over on average of 6 DVD's then to have it have either a crappy ending or no ending at all.
Also if you are like me and impatient of waiting for retail stores in your area to get anime in, my favorite place to buy anime online is at animecornerstore.com. The second they get their anime in they ship it out, and they have Black Lagoon: Second Barrage already so i might be ordering it if Best Buy doesnt have it.
Ahh yes. You said that bfore, that she's the only one with a DVD player in your house. Well when you get arround to it...hehe. Princess Tutu is a great show. What type of Box is it, and what's in it? hehe, just wondering how that box is like. . And if you care, I just ordered Maze and Cowboy bebop box sets, can't wait for them. I still have to finish watching Speed Grapher though. I won't be buying more anime for awhile however. But it's cool, I went a long time this year without buying anime, so I'm making up for it now recently. But now I'll go awhile again with no new animes...Oh and you should think about eventually getting a DVD player when you get some money. They don't cost too much these days do they? Bet you could get a cheap one for like 50 dollors.
