Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

k. this'll be a long one. so u guys want to know the full story on my breakdown at lunch? if so, go to randi's journal. i think it's on one of the 29th postings. i told the whole thing.
on another note, here's my siggy and it's english translation if anyone wants to know, since it's in japanese and all:

totemo ureshikattayo
kimi ga warai kaketeta
subete wo tokasu hohoemi de
haru wa mada tookote
tsumetai tsuchi nurakatte
mebuku toki wo nokoshite itemo
shinjitai kokoro hadaite yukeruto
umarekawaru koto wa dekinaiyo
let's stay together
itsumo.

okay, and in english:

i was so happy
when u smiled at me
with a smile that melts away everything
spring is still far away
and the cold earth is still wet
was waiting for the day when the first grass sprouts
for instance, even though today is painful
even if yesterday's wounds are left behind
let's stay together
forever.

i no it's a little and a little confusing since i had to cut parts out to make it shorter and also a lil sappy for me, it's pretty all the same.
in another note, i read a story in a book called fruits basket, volume 3. it's a lil strange and just the tiniest gory, but read it anyway and give me a full and non sarcastic answer for what u think the moral is. when a lot of peeps have answered, i'll give out my answer. here goes the story called "the most foolish traveler in the world":

a foolish traveler was on a journey
he was stupid because he was easily tricked. the townspeople took advantage of him.
on that journey, he was tricked into giving away all his money, clothes, and shoes.
but the traveler was foolish, so when the townspeople lied to him saying, "this will really help..."
tears would stream down his face
and he would say, "please be happy." while he gave them what they wanted.
when he gave away his last belonging..
he was naked and ashamed to be seen so he decided to travel in the forest.
then he met the monsters who lived in the forest.
they wanted to eat him, so they tricked him with clever words...
of course, the traveler was fooled and when the mosters asked, he gave up his arms and legs.
eventually, the traveler was nothing but a head.
he even gave his eyes to the last monster he met
as the monster munched on his eyes he said, "thank you. i'll give you this in return." and left him.
but that was a lie, too.
his gift was a single piece of paper that had "fool" written on it.
but the traveler cried and cried, saying,
"thank you thank you.
"this is the first time anyone's ever given me anything. i'm so happy. thank you thank you."
and tears kept flowing from his eye sockets.
and y he was crying...
he died.

seriously, i no how gory and weird it is, but say what u think the morale is anyway. the real one will surprise ya. 3nodding
