I hope things get better as the year unfolds.

I agree. But for the fun of it I guess this year I want to clean up my diet. I've already managed to integrate exercise into my life. So now its time for the other part. Proper nutrition.

I can attest to that being true..... haha But yeah when you're young, it feels like you have all the time in the world. Then one day you get old. And start to realize time is running out.

True. I hate it when people blame the technology instead of the person. Coz you're right it's just a tool. It depends on how you use it. For good or for bad.

Seems like a big year for you. Hope you pass your board exam. I'm glad I never had to go through one. haha

Yeah it kinda sucks that we're so dependent on the Internet. But what can you do? It's a part of daily living now. Do you mean self-driving cars?

It's already January 1st, 2019 here in my country. And I was a bit surprised no one posted a new year's thread yet. So happy new year to you and your family. Hope you have a great 2019. Oh and feel free to share how your 2018 went. Was it a good year for you? And what are your plans for 2019?

Good points. Or when it makes us too lazy or dependent. Or even addicted. I lost my Internet connection for a week and it was horrible. haha

I totally agree. Technology is like real-life magic. It's supposed to do mind-blowing things. And sure the day to day convenience is amazing but saving lives is even better. And yeah the Internet. Without it we won't be here having this conversation now.

Damn...... I don't know what to say..... haha (kidding) For me I enjoy playing a sports game like NBA 2k but I don't really play. I don't control a team. Instead I let 2 CPU controlled teams play against each other and I just watch. My friends would say, What are you doing? If you don't want to play and just wanna watch, go watch real basketball. Watch some NBA on TV.

And what tea do you usually like? I'm not really a tea drinker but I want to learn more about it.

This made me chuckle. haha But I get what you mean. Some Japanese voice acting can get annoying. Welcome! I'm sure you will fit right in here.

Merry Christmas to everyone too!! Hope you all have a good one

Alright I will. Especially Steins; Gate. I loved that anime. Heard the VN was good as well.

600+ times?? I watched that once and it literally made my head hurt. haha Good show though.

Welcome! Hope you enjoy your stay. You read a lot of visual novels. I tried getting into them before but had a tough time finishing one. But I want to try again coz I think they're pretty interesting.

The sims is awesome at the start but then gradually becomes boring as there are no goals to the game. You just play on and on. I just started playing Dragon Age Origins. I was a fan of Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2. So when I heard that Bioware is making another RPG I was all in. Mainly I alternate between PC and console. I usually play fantasy RPGs, strategy war games, simulation games on PC. Then JRPGs and adventure games on console.

What was that scene again?

I watched the original Full Metal Alchemist and never watched Brotherhood. But they say Brotherhood is so much better. But yeah skip the original one. haha

Was it that part where the main character was trying to save that girl from dying? And he couldn't stop it no matter what? (Sorry I'm bad with remembering names. haha) From the top of my head, the final graduation in Angel Beats. Where they simulated a graduation and in the end said goodbye to each other. One by one disappearing (or moving on to the afterlife). I couldn't stop crying.

As of now (coz my favorites might change as I watch more anime) My favorites are: Hunter x Hunter Steins Gate Made In Abyss Violet Evergarden Bunny Drop Code Geass March Comes In Like A Lion Clannad My Hero Academia Attack On Titan Death Note One Punch Man Bakuman Great Teacher Onizuka Shirobako Drifters Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya Genshiken I can't remember the rest. haha

I think it was Berserk. It gave me chills thought because it was so gory but I also enjoyed it. I didn't know at that time that it was a really a good manga. I selected it at random.

I actually don't use You Tube for news and updates because video for me is too time consuming. I guess I read articles or blogs faster than a video. But I am subscribed to You Tubers like: Linus Tech Tips (for tech stuff) - I can see how passionate he is about technology and it shows in his videos. UrAvgConsumer (for gadgets and so on) - He seems to have a ton of money to spend buying gadgets The Anime Man - His videos are well made and easy to watch Scattervolt (for building computers) - I like how he builds computers on a budget sometimes ThinMatrix (for making games) - He's a very good coder and I respect his passion for making his game And Pewdiepie.... I watched like 2 videos of his and I kinda see why he's so popular. Seems like a genuine dude.

My heart rate goes up whenever Nemesis appears out of nowhere. Then I panic and start running into walls trying to escape. haha As some people mentioned, Fatal Frame series. It was scary because you weren't a strong hero. You basically had a camera. No guns or super powers. And you were up against ghosts that are way more powerful.

I second that. One Punch Man season 2 (feels like forever) and Mob Psycho 100 season 2.
