Tnx for the add

Peek-a-Boo!
Hi, just wanted to say hi!

Okay, if you say so. XD
That's cool. It's hard for me to imagine a strong punch, 'cause I don't think I've ever done one.
I've been hit with plenty, though. >.<
My best friend's awesome with throws and takedowns too, but he got his from a different art...I forget which. >.>
Heheh, sounds like you've got your brother owned. XD

Just cleared Shadow Hearts: From the New World...God, that final battle was one heck of a brawl. X.X
Sounds like I'm going to have to look into Jukado. Pretty much any form of martial arts will get my attention, but less heard of ones interest me even more. XD
Tae Kwon Do was great while I still could go...Thanks to it, I learned how my best combat style is. My punches are fast and accurate, but rather weak. My kicks, however, are on the slow side, but direct and powerful.
When I actually had to use it, it kind of went like this:
Right punch, left punch, enemy off balance, right side kick, knocked down, end. XD
I don't know why he started it, and I don't like hurting people, but it was kinda fun. :P
I actually took what I learned and tried to develop my own style, which is fun, but I don't think I'm getting anywhere. For some reason, when I try to come up with a new technique, I picture a spider, and I come up with something revolving around the number eight...I've always admired them, but I never thought they'd be my inspiration in fighting. >.>

I took Tae Kwon Do, but I didn't make it very far before time and money constraints kicked in. >.<
My master said I had the highest attributes of the class and everything...man, I miss that...
Fortunately, my best friend and I are thinking about joining a place that teaches multiple forms...don't know which we're gonna do yet, though.
Wow, your friend sounds tough. XD
For some reason I get interested in sparring with someone when I hear about their ability...And I don't mean to sound ignorant, but I don't think I've heard of Jukado. What's it like?
As for the secret video...was it by any chance about three armored people taking on two enemies? That's the one about the prequel in work, if it is. I think it's gonna be better than the others. :P

Agh, I hate it when I do stuff like that. XD
Happened to me with a really important assignment once...not a happy ending. >.<
About Kingdom Hearts...I loved how there were all those Final Fantasy characters in it, but not how they warped them. Yeah, I can't stand most Disney stuff...I love the Nightmare Before Christmas, though. Like I said, my biggest issue with that game is the anti-dark issue. It's like everyone is unified by the light or something but nobody except Riku once tried to understand the dark, and here's Sora hating the dark with every fiber of his being just because he was told it was bad. Yeah, I don't like a lot of the story elements. Hopefully he'll grow up some in the third...
Punching bag. Now that I could use. XD
I need the exercise, too...maybe I should buy one.
I'm glad my brother and I don't get into physical fights...he has no regard for other people in any sense of the word, he's one of those people who'll kill someone and use the excuse of being called a name. Plus, I took my martial arts training seriously, and I'd rather not use that on anyone. Sorry you have to deal with that, though. Your brother sounds like someone I wouldn't be able to get within a few feet of. >.>
Sounds like you've got a lot to deal with. I feel stupid for this, but I think all I can say is hang in there, and it'll be awesome when it's over. :P

Actually, I think negativity is healthier than being foolishly optimistic all the time. What I mean is, if you're always optimistic, all you expect are good things. When something goes wrong, you're totally unprepared for it, and it's devastating. However, when you allow that negativity in, sure, you don't see the bright side of things, but at least you're prepared for the worst, right? Really though, it's best to balance them both out, but that's really, really hard. >.<
It's like that thing you see in all the storylines today..."We're denizens of the light! Let's go heartlessly slaughter people with different views than us, because they like the dark, and we don't understand the first thing about it so it must be evil!"
...Yeah. In case you can't tell, some of Kingdom Hearts' characters are on my bad side. Well, them and countless other characters. >.<
Anyway...I think I'd rather ski, snowboarding doesn't look like something I could get into. Hopefully, you'll rule at it. XD
Good lord, I remember when mine went through that. -.-
He repeatedly jumped from liking me to not depending on who was with us...that little brat. Though I can't call him little any more, he's about 5 years younger yet almost a foot taller than me. O.o
Well, you already know I go on like that too. It's just a way of venting, I guess. Hey, rather we rant than beat the crap out of somebody, right? XD

Really? That's reassuring, then. XD
Now you've got me interested. I need to see what I can do about learning it...
Gah, I'm probably going to say the same thing if my brother does that. >.<
He's always such a callous, insensitive, uncaring ass to me. He inadvertently makes it constantly care that my thoughts, feelings, and opinions aren't worth crap to him. This is even worse when his friend is around; it's like nothing regarding me matters because of that person's existence. Don't get me wrong, now...his friend's a good guy, and I don't have anything against him. I don't understand why he does that when he's around. What's worse, when he isn't there, my brother's always hounding me to play Monster Hunter and World of Warcraft and the like with him all the time, claiming he likes playing with me, when in truth it's only because I'm the only one around.
...Wow, I'm full of contempt today. O.o
Sorry about that.

I think that's one reason why I haven't wanted a license yet- I don't wanna cart my brother & his friends everywhere. He and his best friend actually tried to get me to buy a lighter for them once because I was legal...my response:
Not a chance in hell. XD
Skiing sounds fun...hopefully my klutz gene won't kick in and I won't crash into anything. :P

w00t, my book came in. XD
Yeah, the letters get on my nerves too, but nowhere near as much as the military ones. They kinda freak me out. >.>
As a matter of fact I've gotten some religious ones lately. Now THAT was odd.
Jeez, sounds like you've got a lot of work to do, huh...and to think I haven't bothered driving yet. Now I feel foolish. XD
Ah, well...I don't care for it, but I suppose it IS a necessity, so I gotta get to it soon.
I do hope that art show goes well for you, though! Too bad your vacation isn't as good as it could be. I keep wishing we could get back into going up there each year, but it's been like 7 or so years since then. Guess if we go, I'll have to pay. >.<
