White Witch whats it like falling down stairs, I always wondered but me to chicken to find out.

You get a lot of bruises and scars in your body. I didn't feel it much...
The story goes like this: Me and my cousins were playing Haunted House in their house, and we were trying to scare the heck out of each other. I'm not easily scared, so I just hung around scaring the others. I called for time-out, since my mom was calling me. So I went upstairs, and a cousin of mine who was upstairs too and didn't hear me call time out surprised me just when I reached the top step, causing me to tumble down the stairs. Fun! But I'm all well now

And don't try it, please. You could get a concussion or something.

Sheesh, I said I THOUGHT about killing myself -__-; Oh, and since my best friend promissed me she'll throw me out of my window (I live on 3rd floor), and don't have to worry how I'll die

My parents are still angry at each other. They're not fighting but either they're not talking

Oww, poor Witch-chan and Chibi-chan!!! I once fell from horse straight on my neck (if I hadn't had rider's hat, I would be dead now) And you know what? I wasn't scared of the pain (I'm accepting pain pretty well, Heero ) or horse or something else, but I promised myself I won't tell my Mum what happened because she won't let me to do horse riding again! <--that was cause of my fear

Heero I've got lil question about Japanese. When I was watching Love Hina Motoko's older sister called her and Naru per "Motoko-han" and "Naru-han". What exactly "-han" means or symbolizes??? Anyone knows?

Holy crap...
I remember again that I got a scar covering half of my face during that concrete accident. I wore this purple scarf to hide it. Good thing it was summer that time. My body really heals quickly. Now you'll never know I had an accident like that.

I'm gonna be of good use as a mercenary! Kewl!

Oh, don't worry Witch-chan, my neck hurt only few moments And I was laughing when I rose up from the ground (I was flat on my back) It's good to know your wound healed quickly! It didn't hurt you, right? (sometimes I don't notice something's hurting me and when I notice - I'm not bothering about it. It would heal sometime, ne? ) Oh, and you want to be mercenary, right? Do you want to work with me and my best friend? We're going to work as assasins (read my description below) ! We would be pleased if you'd join us More of us than better!

Heero remember to answer on my question about that "-han", 'kay?

What exactly "-han" means or symbolizes??? Anyone knows?

I think it depends what word it is after. I know so little Japanese I can't say one complete sentence. :-? I could be wrong though...

If I fell off a horse, I wouldn't live ot see the next day...

That is one bad scar... I only have one on my forehead that alot of people miss because my hair is usually covering it. Even when it's not they odn't notice it. Heack, sometimes I don't notice it! I'm wierd sometimes. Sometimes I swear I can't feel pain even if it slapped me 5 times in my face..

Don't mind my random outbursts for a while. Doing a buncha practice tests for finals is not fun. Neither is Tae Bo in PE. I feel energy deprived.
My finals aren't even until June and we've been taking tests of the same nature for the whole year. I feel sleepy now...

[Calla Lily]

OOh. Nasty experiences...
Oh, haven't see you in a while, Ayane! How ya been?

Question: anybody know a good site that has an archive of names? And I don't just mean a list, I would like one that has their ethnic origin (if applicable), whether the name is male/female, and what it means.

Eg. "Darla."
origin: perhaps England around 1700-1800's (?)
meaning: a variation of the term of endearment, "darling"

I've looked on some sites, but just wondering whether you knew any others. (any books?)

*goes off to search*

[Chibi-sitter]

Hey Calla Lily, my mum has a book of names for both sexes.
She was looking through it when she was pregnant with me.

It has meanings, origins and short ways to say it like
Richard for example -Rich, Richie, Dick.

My mum underlined and circled alot of names, I can't believe she settled on "Mandy"!!!!
Short for Amanda and means 'to be loved' but I don't like it. I was teased as "candy" & "Bambi"alot in school, grrrr. :x

Ah but Duo cheers me up. that line he says at the end of EW.
"Names are things other people give ya, there's no point in wasting time worrying." -thats what I remember from the dubb. (if the japanese says different let me know people.)

So if you want info on a name Calla just PM and I'll look it up.

[Calla Lily]

OOh!! *gets all giddy inside*
I'm looking for about 5-7 names, guys and girls alike. I prefer more unusual/exotic names if you don't mind.
I'm looking into old English names right now....

[Raspberry]

Sorry Calla, me dunno pages with this kind of information :-?

Oh, Ayane it was just name before "-han". E.g. "Naru-han" , "Motoko-han". It has to symbolizes something! "-chibi" symbolizes somebody's small, "-chan" symbolizes we like somebody very much or somebody's small as well, "-sama" symbolizes our respect toward somebody, "-san" sometimes means mister/miss etc. or we use it for somebody with level in society the same we are or lower, "-kun" is toward our classmate, "-senpai" is toward older student in our school, "-sensei" is toward our teacher or doctor, "-dono" is toward somebody who we feel respect for and like him in the same time. But I can't find anywhere what "-han" symbolizes...Hn.
