Oh, they look like Chinese words to me. I learned Chinese when I was in elementary school. I had a lot of fun learning that language. My family can speak Chinese but they can't really write kanji.
I don't always do homework, copying homework is my habit. XD
I wouldn't really bother about my teacher yelling at us. He never did that, he doesn't care or bother to check our homework. Even he seems satisfied if we get bad scores.
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls <3
Hiragana written above the kanji are called furigana. Hiragana is a small alphabet that I learned in the first weeks of my Japanese classes, kanji on the other hand is complicated, there are many and can be read in multiple ways. To sum it up furigana is like this: link
Will keep and eye on her & decent clothing in highschool seems a good rule to me.
Our teacher was exactly like that, minus the homework part. She gave some but didn't bother to check it so no one actually did it XD;; But she was like that when "explaining". She filled blackboards with complicated formulas then made us solve exercises with them on the blackboard. No one knew, of course, so she took the opportunity to yell so much, I seriously wonder why her veins haven't popped yet.

We're not allowed to wear make up here, thanks God. And no nail polish. And all school skirts are knee-length.
The only problem is our new math teacher. He keeps giving us homework, a lot of homework, and they are mostly hard. He explains the material only once and he won't answer any questions. He gave us our first exam, only 1 student passed, the rest had to retake the exam. D:
...I actually don't really understand about 'hiragana written above the kanji' lol.
Btw, do you remember Mokuba Mekeke? One who sent Ritona Raito lots of card dedications and was banned. She's Mokuba Kari now. Just want to let you know, so you can keep an eye on her. :)

Take your shoes... what?! That's extreme...
At least the girls looked presentable, in my highschool, especially when the weather was warmer the girls were starting to look like whores. Very short skirts, boobs almost completely exposed, make-up so thick it would crack if touched, they were all so yuck! As if they came to a pub, not highschool.
I could translate manga, but I need it to have the hiragana written above the kanji, I don't know enough kanji yet, I know about 250 from the almost 2000 I need to learn ^^;; I'm learning new ones everyday and some I can even guess from the context, but I'm not yet prepared for the tough stuff.
Same here.
There are these silly rules in my school:
1. We, girls, have to tie our hair in a ponytail. WTF!
2. We have to wear pitch-black shoes. If a teacher sees a stripe on your shoes which isn't black, they'll take your shoes.
3. Also, there are no lockers.
4. And no jackets.
At home, school invades my life by giving me homework. Even my math teacher has been showing up in my dreams for three nights in a row.
I've never read one novel in two different languages and I never paid so much attention to subtitles all that much. If you want to be a translator, I think you can start by translating some manga chapters on mangafox. Sometimes they need a Japanese-English translator. I bet you can be a good one. XD
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls <3
Our highschool was a prison too XD If one was late in the morning or returning from break they weren't allowed in till next recess. It was the stupidest rule ever. Especially in winter or in the morning when I woke up at 7 to get there by 8, but had to stay outside because I was 5 min late. Communism is a breeze compared to how my highschool dealt with things. And it didn't help the students at all, there was bullying and all that. It sucked, a lot, give me back my 4 years!
I had 4 hours of maths, 5 of English and physics and chemistry 2 each, but the physics teacher loved me even though I wasn't any good XD My charisma got to her and my final grade was 10/10 (or A) even though I knew almost no physics at all XD I also studied others such a religion, geography or philosophy, but it was just 1 hour/week.
I want to be a translator, I'm very good at it (hope I don't sound cocky), and I love to translate everything. The woman that translated Harry Potter in Romanian sucked! She was such an idiot who didn't differentiate between inches and meters; so at one point when the book said (in English): "Ron took out a 10 inch wand", she actually translated inches in meters! How dumb is that?! That's one heck of a wand for Ron though...
Anyway, my point is that if a crappy translator like that translated the most popular books ever, imagine what a good translator may get. So I'm betting on this <3

"College is so awesome!" You make me so envy.
Lucky you! I get only 1.5 hours English every week.., not intensive at all. Moreover, my English teacher is stupid.
I get 7 hours of math per week, with two different teachers, five hours chemistry and 5 hours physics. I suck at them all. XD
I would love to do some guiding for fun and a little money, I have never done that. There are museums here, but it's impossible for me to skip classes and go outside the school. There are security guards at the school gates.

College is so awesome!
That's what I thought in highschool too, I went to the math/IT profile, but the teachers who actually taught those classes were so poorly instructed I quickly came to hate math with a burning passion. Luckily, there was intensive English too so I had my relaxation hours.
I almost envy the people who had fun in highschool, it was Hell for me, my only fond memories were when I skipped classes with my 2 best friends.
Depends where you live, if your area has amazing sights and museums, becoming a guide might not be such a bad idea. You'll develop the skill of talking fluently and not stuttering, plus making occasional jokes, in front of a crowd. That's good because you can advance from there, people who don't blush and stutter in front of crowds are a rare sight.
I know that too. Here, accounting and tourism continue to be popular choices. I rashly chose science and math-related classes, I don't like them and I'm kinda regretting it now. Assignments and homework always keep me busy and unhappy, I often think that I cannot really enjoy my life doing other things.
I can't wait till I go to college. I'm just way too sick of high school.
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls <3
I'm only talented in design and foreign languages XD My major is Japanese, I wanted to properly learn it for years. Most people nowadays are focused on IT, management and I think law school is pretty popular too. So my advice is to not go there XD Find something you truly want to learn and that's also special.
Heh~ guess I didn't know so little about you afterall, I nailed it pretty well XD
That must take a lot of time, to find so many images that go so well together @___@ You've got a lot a patience, that's for sure XD
Oh gosh, you don't have to do that! I'll just simply practice some @__@
Thanks for the reply though, I really appreciate it c:
I'm your stalker! XD
I know so little about you as well, except your love for Ciel. Lol, I'm a pretty straightforward person. I see no point in playing games, or twisting the truth. But I always try to be tactful and respectful of other people's feelings and position as sometimes being too straight forward can come across as being rude or nasty. C:
Btw, what major did you take for college? I have no idea what major I will choose. It's hard to decide because I'm not sure what I want to do in life. :(
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls <3
No, you don't apologize XD
I'm really glad you like it, I've known you for a while, but frankly I know so little about you, I had to guess from your personality. And you seem pretty damn badass and straightforward, therefore, this XD
Thanks a lot >///<
I don't really know, I just take images with similar coloring and drawing style and put them together to match the image I have in my head. It just happens, you should try it too, I'm sure you can do it. I could make it a challenge I guess? To make a wall out of 4+ images?
Seriously, do you mind me asking how you actually blend them together as well as you?? I'm always in awe at the way you fit SO MANY IMAGES together! @____@
