About Me
The Basics My name is John, but people on Gaia call me Rai. I'm 21 and from New Jersey. My birthday is in March, and I'm a PissShit Pisces. I'm Polish, Irish, and Czechoslovakian, which pretty much means I'm white as ********. I currently work at a piece of s**t pizza place, where I take phone and in-store orders from shitty customers that I hate. The only two things I'm genuinely interested in going to school for are things that would never get me a job. My life low key sucks.
My Gaia HistoryMy nickname is Rai, which I received back in 2008. I was introduced to Gaia by a real life friend, and I joined on November 2nd of 2007. My first account's username was i6 tails Raijuu, which has since been changed to i6 tails Utakata. I got involved in the Naruto community late 2008, and Utakata became my first main cosplay. Around 2010, I switched to my account Motoi and began cosplaying a ton of random things, from Bleach to Final Fantasy. From there I met my best friend Nero, and in 2011, we met the members of TTB, which was later turned into our official group of close friends. A few months into 2012, LVN became our new group. Then, the best possible thing happened in the summer of 2013; the Skype Group formed. BAES. As for my current username, Fire Rides, it's the name of my favorite song by MØ, which you can listen to here, if you're curious.
MusicMy last music section was super tacky, so I decided to redo it. I enjoy all genres of music, minus jazz. I listen to a ton of artists/bands, but my favorites are Lana Del Rey, MØ, and Panic! at the Disco. Some of the others that I love are: MS MR - Natalia Kills - Sky Ferreira - Dance Gavin Dance - The Maine - Hands Like Houses - Bastille - Emarosa - Woodkid - Birds of Tokyo - Ghost Town - Imagine Dragons - Mayday Parade - Florence and the Machine - Breathe Carolina - Purity Ring - Chvrches - Chiodos - Circa Survive - Issues - Of Mice & Men - Grimes - Jonny Craig - Keane - Pierce the Veil Some of my favorite albums are: Born to Die: Paradise Edition - No Mythologies to Follow - Vices & Virtues - Ultraviolence - Night Time, My Time - Hell Is What You Make It - Ceremonials - The Bones of What You Believe - Blue Sky Noise - Acceptance Speech - Bad Blood - Versus - Trouble - March Fires - Universes - The Golden Age - Monsters in the Closet If anyone is interested in seeing some music that I would recommend, they can click here to look at the list of bands/songs/artists that I've enjoyed finding this year.
Manga I pretty much stick with manga, but on rare occasions, I watch anime. The last anime I watched was Btooom!, which I was obsessed with. Now, for the manga. Some of the series that I follow are Bleach, Naruto, Btooom!, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Shaman King, Soul Eater, Blue Exorcist, Attack on Titan, Suicide Island, God of High school, Deadman Wonderland, Assassination Classroom, Children of the Sea, Satanister, and Manhole., As for manga that I've finished, those are: Gantz, Homunculus, Madoka Magica, and probably a few other short series I can't remember. My current three favorite manga are Gantz, Bleach, and Homunculus. I'm pretty sure Gantz will always be #1, though.
Shows SHOWS. American Horror Story - Once Upon a Time - Bad Girls Club These are pretty much the only shows that I never fall behind on. Asylum is my favorite season of AHS, although I have a strong feeling that Freakshow will change that. Once Upon a Time is that one show that always gets me excited. Captain Swan, pls. The past two seasons of BGC have been atrocious, so here's to hoping season 13 gets me hooked again! Season 7 is the bae. I also have quite a few shows that I want to watch / catch up on. Those are: Game Of Thrones - The Walking Dead - Orange is the New Black - Awkward - Teen Wolf - The Legend of Korra - The Mindy Project - Hemlock Grove - RWBY
Games I mainly stick to PC games. I play the following (in order of which I'm currently most active in): Runescape (KMS) - Town of Salem - Minecraft - DMO (Digimon) - AoT - PokeMMO - Starbound - Maplestory - Smite - GMod - Combat Arms. I had Type-0 on my laptop, but then it broke and I was way too lazy to re-download it. As for my 360, I randomly turn it on to play L4D2, Naruto UN, Tekken, and Prototype. I used to be obsessed with Dissidia and Bleach HTS7, but then my PSP broke and my life was ruined. I'm low key saving up for a PS4 so I can be ready to play Type-0, FFXV, and KH3 when they come out.
My Personality Personally, I think I'm nice, but then again most people probably think the same about themselves. I enjoy making people laugh, and I'd rather give than take. In my opinion, there's nothing more satisfying than making someone happy, whether it's by giving them a gift, advice, or just time to vent. I'm all about respect. If someone respects me, I'll respect them. Never disrespect someone and not expect some sort of retaliation. If you disrespect someone, they have every right to disrespect you back. The only time I'd truly ever disrespect someone is if they showed some sort of disrespect first. Two wrongs might not make a right, but it'll at least show that beanhead they're not always going to get away with it, and, who knows, it might teach them to give respect. You don't have to like me or anyone else, but respect is required. I love meeting new people, and if we can hold a conversation for hours and hours, I'll consider you a close friend in no time. But in the end, the only way a person can truly get to know me is by speaking to me. Going off of what others might say is... petty. Get your own opinion by getting to know a person, and see whether or not what was said about them is true! You might be surprised.
