Christian rock, music, video games, anime, Japanese music, Japanese dramas, reading (especially fantasy), shopping, hanging out with friends and being stupid
Music
Christian rock/alternative, like Relient K and Sanctus Real. Also, lots of Japanese music. My favorite j-pop bands are all JE, naturally, and are NEWS, Arashi and KAT-TUN, and my favorite j-rock bands are Bump of Chicken and UVERworld, currently. I'll listen to just about anything except rap/R&B.
Movies
Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Moulin Rouge, Miyazaki movies (Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle)- mostly action movies, musicals (which there are not enough of), Pixar movies, and maybe the occasional chick flick if it's a good one.
Television
I really don't watch much TV these days...haha. Heroes (I haven't watched much yet, but I want to!), CSI, American Idol, and some sitcoms. More than American shows, I watch Japanese dramas. Some of my all-time favorites are Pride, Hana Yori Dango, Hanazakari no Kimitachi e, and tons more. I also watch Japanese variety shows from time to time, like Shonen Club (which is Johnny's only), Utaban, and Hey Hey Hey!
Books
Just about any fantasy. Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, the Inheritance series, the Swan's War trilogy, currently reading the Inkheart trilogy, and tons more. I also love The Only Alien on the Planet by Kristen D. Randle, which no one's ever heard of but it's fantastic.
Heroes
Just about anyone who's suffered or died for the Christian faith. There are a lot of great stories out there like that, in books like Jesus Freaks. I really admire people who can put the needs of others ahead of themselves genuinely, with no ulterior motives.
About me: I'm a Christian and always have been, so I've always been a good girl, which I'm actually proud of. I'm academically smart, but outside of school I have no common sense, so I can be pretty stupid sometimes, but who wants to be smart all the time anyway? Being stupid is way more fun.
Who I'd like to meet: Christians, people who are into Japanese stuff (not otaku, haha), um...cool people? XD
As far as celebrities go...there are several Japanese men I'd love to meet. Namely, members of Johnny's Entertainment, especially Yamapi, Koyama, Jin, Sho...oh, how the list goes on.

Toda Erika? Hmm...she was only good in the Death Note movies. Other wise her main roles like Liar Game, weren't all that good. She played her role nicely for the amount of time she got in HYD2.
Yeah...I think what really made Liar Game the great drama it was, was Matsuda Shota.
Anyway, yeah I was reading up on the drama ur talking about. It seems Nino and Ryo are going to be siblings or something that are trying to avenge their parents' deaths by taking down the murderers.
Seems good. I like dramas like this. I believe that with every happy go lucky drama, there should be either a really dark or a really sad drama to counter act on it.
dude, have u watched 1 Litre of Tears? This is my 2nd time watching it...and still i get 1 litre of tears in my eyes. It's so sad. But that's not the point. You should watch it if u haven't done so already. Ryo (yes...Ryo from NEWS) is in it and he does a really good job playing his part.
lol, i kinda already do. i was so bored during japanese, that i got onto my laptop and started researching on how to speak yakuza. it's not as hard as it looks. its actually WAY easier than public japanese since all you have to do is drop a crap load of articles and add "kono yaro" to the end of everything if ur speaking to someone directly XD
hey amber its erin. i saw that your birthday is tomorrow so i wanted to say happy birthday and have fun!!! so what have you been up to? i just got done planning my sons 4th birthday. i am birthay-ed out lol. well talk to you later.
