Random CHit CHat

Not all American kids are evil. You just need to find the good ones.

I consider myself American (though my parents consider themselves Asian). Many (not all) of my Asian peers think I'm dumb and/or a "traitor" because I consider myself American.

To many jerks (of any race), I'm apparently "not Asian enough" even though I'm American, not Asian! (I'll accept "Asian American" as accurate, though not preferred. But it is inaccurate to call me just "Asian". That's what my music is, but that's not what I am.)

My friends who consider themselves American first (in spirit, not in name only - too many people say they're American but are not really American on the inside), no matter what their race, accept me not for the color of my skin but for the content of my character.

no no that's not what I'm saying. I'm also part asian O.O ok only like 1% but it counts! I'm just saying most of the friends I have that are american's are just rude to me -_- but my friends that are asians aren't.

I'm English-, Chinese-, and Malaysian-American, and I get comments from people of all races and backgrounds (even strangers) that I should be embarrassed that I don't consider myself "just Chinese".

Of my ethnicities, I identify myself as English the most, in a sense that when I hear someone speaking in an English accent or see someone hold an English flag, I'm glad to hear or see one of "my people". I don't hate/deny being of Chinese or Malaysian descent, but I honestly don't feel the same ethnic bond when I meet someone of Chinese or Malaysian descent. I will give anyone of any background, however, a chance to be my friend.

Honestly, it's not what you're born as, it's what's inside that counts. It doesn't matter if you're 100% Asian, 50% Asian, 1% Asian, or even 0% Asian by blood. People have the right to be whoever they want, no matter what their blood percentage says. I have no problem with a white, black, or green person who is genuinely interested in Asian culture calling themselves Asian.

Uh oh. My cell phone has a message saying that it's overheating.

O.o the flip it over O.O

I just unplugged it form the charger. Apparently, you're not supposed to use the cell phone when it's charging.

I'm old though. In my world, phones are supposed to be connected to wires!

O.O yea I do that when I have my phone charging I put it on speaker and talk to Koyu-chii. :3 Koyu-chii wants to audition for A!P but she doesn't have a mic and her camera won't put audio on youtube.

If you go to a Radio Shack, Best Buy, or other electronic store, there's a wonderful Logitech USB mic selling for about $15.

Just have her download Audacity (if PC) or use GarageBand (if Mac), and she's set to go!

-calls her- O.o


She not picking up O.O I think she's mad because the other day when she asked why I called I said I was bored O.O :3 but Koyu-chii is fun to talk to and is a good singer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KtbH3rtfpo

we sing together. I sing all loud she sings all quiet she was very nervous XP

Eri, JunJun, and LinLin are graduating.

I read all about it and the new auditions today.
What a wonderful way to start a Sunday.

I bet I'm overreacting but LOL. I love them so much. I don't understand why they're leaving. Eri is justified because of her disease, but the pandas...just...ugh.

Also because 9th gen auditions probably will not happen for me

this makes me really sad 8'( Eri was my favorite for a long time and I adore Junjun....

Eri has a good reason to go and I hope that she gets well soon and she can find some sort of work after she gets better. Junjun and Linlin I understand as well, but I don't like the idea of it.

Some one in the Hello-online comments pointed out something that makes sense. they said that "Tsunku will NEVER let JunJun and LinLIn be sempais to Japanese girls. It will never happen. They were a novelty to push Morning Musume into the Chinese market, they aren't going to be around long."

Which i could understand if it is coming from him....


CURSE YOU TSUNKU >> there I cursed him again.

I am kinda excited about new members. I've wanting morning musume to change in some way but mainly by bringing in new members .... not getting rid of 3 then adding new ones to take their places 8'(

It seems like JunJun and LinLin were shoved out by Tsunku. Which makes their graduation very sad, even though I didn't like both of them as singers.

That quote Sammi posted is probably true in a really upsetting way D:

...I'm...probably going to fill out that audition form and see what happens.
After I ask my parents.
TBH I've wanted to be in MoMusu. Lmfao yeah I know.
I'm like a derpy 14 year old white girl who has very limited and basic Japanese knowledge but no harm in trying?
*shot*

Tsunku saw JunJun and LinLin not as singers, but Chinese stage props who are to play the role of newbies, and once they've filled the part, Tsunku kicked them out.

Go for it, Minuki. There are white people who have made it in Hello! Project before, so don't let that hold you back.

That really is a shame. They were so talented and I loved their personalities. LinLin is such a sweetheart, it just breaks my heart seeing her so upset with this.

Thank you Corsica you have no idea how much that means to me <3333

i'm 14 year old white girl too. I'm soooo auditioning. I just don't know how, cause i don't read japanese D:

But omg, i loved linlin. I went from almost crying when i read that, to almost partying when i saw i could audition. xD;;

I'm getting my friend to help me translate the form (which is kinda funny 'cause we're at pretty much the same level when it comes to Japanese). Whenever I'm 100% sure what everything says I can PM you? <3

If you could, i'd love you forever. If we joined momusu together i'd like give you half my pay.

LMAO <33 Ok, whenever I'm sure of everything a PM is coming your wayyyy.

I want to be the Morning Musume tutor.

I'm too old, ugly, and can't sing. But I can teach.

I bet you're gorgeous Corsica >[ Working as H!P staff would probably fun though if I didn't want to be an aidoru.

wow on another note we need to fix this photobucket thing

<------ 14..... -_- I'm probably going to audition. I probably won't get in but it would be soo cool to say I got to audition or send a form in XD THat and Cutie Love I'm not sure yet my parents haven't exactly decided 100% yet. Anyways I'm positive more people would listen to A!P if they heard a member or two auditioned for MM

I could probably translate it -gets out handy dandy book-
