Hey AP members! I want to get to know a little of the AP members. Not your virtual life but your real one. Everyone has a real life... But internet has become so important that everyone has a virtual life too... Don't you know someone who instead of declaring himself to a woman, did it by internet? Who doesn't helps to mantain friendship through internet? Everyone I know. But what 'bout real life?

Lets start this properly, if I want to know you better, then I have to make myself known.

I am a 16 year old guy that lives in Mexico, San Luis Potosi(Not saying the city, to mantain me anonymous, lol) I have real friends I see everyday as people I know only through the internet, mainly by games or forums(I dont use no internet chats, just MSN, and FB, to chat with real friends). I am a little bit shy but if you are the right person, I can be open to developing a friendship, and I can be a loyal friend. I LOVE anime, but I hide it from my real life(Do you? Or do you share your like with friends?), because many people tags you as "Otakus" or "Pervs" if you like anime, even though you aren't a perv nor otaku.

Im shy but have lots of friends, I am not the popular guy nor the nerdy, nor the looser. I am just a bit of everything. I do Karate, I like cycling and playing piano(I am trying to learn the K-ON opening song "Don't Say Lazy" Yay! (^ 3^) ). I am not the stereotype of the guy who sits in front of the PC all day and has 100 pound overweight. I'm pretty healthy, my CMI(Corporal Mass Index) is in the normal range, leaning for muscle more than fat.

Are we anime likers normal people or are you how people tags anime-likers? Be sincere, it is internet so you can be anonimate...

If you post here, thank you! :D (n_n)/ <---- i love this emoticons, xD

I'm a University student from Chile and also a Fireman of the capital of my country. I'm quite tranquil but lively, tending to be the organizer in groups since I am good at public interaction.

I don't hide the fact that I like anime and manga, after all I am half asian. I'm a sports lover, and ironically enough a nerd in many ways. Although I prefer to call myself a technological savy individual.

I'm not a man of many words, so I leave it till here. Cheers.

As much as I like this topic the admins will probably lock it down and say go read people's profile.

That would be definetly less interesting for the people who post in this thread. :| And prehaps, everyone won't give much details on their profiles... By the way, have you played Borderlands... Your profile tells you like FPS...And by the way, nice Mio drawing :D

Well, I am a student at Le Hong Phong highschool for the gifted. I'm in grade 11 and I'm majoring Literature. I also do well at Mathematics, English (at school, to be honest) and P.E (^^)

I come from a not-well-developed country, and I was born in a average family with 4 members. I have parents who are old-fashioned and uptight as not to support me reading mangas or watching animes (or anything related to that).

I'm a manga maniac. I love mangas about love stories and school life and friendship. Don't read yaoi or hentai or something so not-my-age like that I also love japanese drama and anime but less than manga of course, because of the worse figures and lack of time.

I admit the fact that i'm a freak in many ways. It's so easy to be friends with me but hard to be my close friends because there are so many qualities to be my good friends (haha). The same goes for love and things like that.

I'm Asian. I started reading manga in elementary school and am still CRAZY about it. Here are a list of many of my favorite mangas. You should try them if you have free time.

  1. Lovely complex 2.shiawase kissa sanchoume
  2. gakuen alice
  3. hayate no gotoku
  4. manga from lovely complex's artist
  5. manga from NANA HARUTA

I usually listen to English, Korean and Japanese music. I love Miley Cyrus and many stars of Disney Chanel (since when i was a little kid). Miley's songs are so sincere and meaningful, including Hannah's songs. I love the OST of the following Korean drama series: Goong, You're beautiful, Boys over flower (the drama was many times worse than Japanese version Hanayori dango, but the OST are off the hook!) About Japanese music, I like Yui aragaki, AKB48 and Aiko.

I don't often find friends through internet because just like you said, internet is not real life, just a virtual one. But I think I can try this time.

I'm open to developing a friendship and would be very happy if you can contact me through my Yahoo Messenger nikname: lovelykitty59

(Don't get me wrong! I wrote so long because i really want to download something now and i need to get enough papers :">>>>)

My real name is Inessa and I'm from Ukraine. I'm a future student. Like many of you I adore anime. Some time ago I realized, that I'd like to make anime wallpapers, so i began to learn how to do it.

I like to read manga, too

My fav anime

Elfen lied, Death Note Higurashi/umineko no naku koro ni, Melancholy of Haruhi, Spirited away,...

I listen to different music, but the main is rock (Papa roach),j-rock, jrock neoclassical (Kalafina) If to speak about my character, then sometimes I can be a calm and quiet person, but on the other hand I'm impatient, stubborn and like to prove my opinion xd As you see I like to talk about my positive and negative points- I'm no beater about the bush (XD)

I'm a friendly person, but sometimes I like to be alone... _(._.)_

Helloooo i'm Heloria real name's Angy but i prefer people calling me Cain because i hate my birth name it's so common heh. I've graduated from the Logistics University in Greece, in which i live. Well i'm 20, 21 on October hmm what else oh yeah from september i'll try looking for a job but first thing i need to go for vacation!!

I like anime too, i looove them soo much i also abandoned listening to greek music and i am a huge japan coulture fan which means i like listening to japanese music watching tv dramas and so on. I am a fan of chinese and japanese food! I also like Korean music it has a great bit and the sound of the language isn't that bad.

As a character i like trying things that make me curious and that i think they are interesting, i'm quite shy very silent i can talk for hours about the japanese voice actors and their works hmm what else as a negative point of mine i see my mistakes not on my work but as mistakes of freedom but i never do anything about it and just let these problems to pass by >.< i so need to fix this i already know that not facing a problem the problem itself grows stronger and then it's harder to correct it.

I'm friendly with everyone and i like supporting ppl XD i could be mother Teresa but i am not i'm quite the silent devil that looks like an angel :p but never mind that it's just to make myself being protected by such thoughts. Generally i like thinking a lot and writing them on a paper or just making stories, yeesh i like writing stories even if you call it fanfics it's the same thing!!!

P.S.: XD i wrote too much but i liked the thread and because i wanted to make a new start knowing people again here i am! Nice meeting you all^_^

Well, for you all I can say my real name is Paul(Translated to english), my music tastes vary a lot, I hear techno music, I also like David Guetta, and techno-party kind of music, I like lots of instrumental (favorite composer is Joe Hisaishi), I can also tell you I dont really like much the sell-only(mainstream) oriented music(like Disney's (._.); ) But I hear little pop not much, i do hear pop music with good beat as Passion Pit, or Robyn, I like A7X, DJ Antoine, DJ Furax(Tiesto isn't much of my likes), and i dont really love the straight to the pint music, i like better poetic music, and also I dont hear a lot of J Music, but I can say there they got a heck lot of talent (~_~) Animes I like: Bakuretsu Tenshi(Burst Angel), Neon Genesis, Code Geass(Not great fan though), Death Note(Havent finished watching yet), Ergo Proxy(Haven't finished) I also hate "sex" oriented animes, like hentai, I can accept little ecchi while not being the main anime's reason. I am a computer casual gamer mainly, but still I am a great videogame fan. I do use my computer, but not so much, I spend about 1:30 a day max, but in vacation I can somedays be all day long on the PC, and then the next I can be hanging out with my friends all day. I don't like loneliness a lot, just when needed.

I am a big Paul's fan(the octopus) I like sports and composing on piano. I am indeed very dumb at memorizing names... I like drawing( I did start out whith anime, but now I dont draw it too much), Im not an antisocial person but reserved with unknown people(ahhh... the internet's anonimacy(all i have written is true about me)), I also like writing a bit of poetry and wise phrases that come into my mind (^ 3^)

By the way, nice 2 meet you all!

Ok, sure why not. I'm a 14 year old. I'm going to be a Freshmen here soon! My real life consist usually of hanging with friends, gaming, DJing, watching Anime (or creating) and same with Manga! My hobby is writing stories and music mixing. It's me and that's the way I like it. That's general, but to go a little more in depth.

I'm a weird person, but we all are in our own ways, that's why I'm proud to be weird! I'm an all honor classes student, so my life is a pain. I've recently gone into Graphic Design (and I can give all my thanks to Soul Eater!). I love Anime, as most people here do. It's because I can relate to it. Any ways. I enjoy listening to Techno/Electronica, it's got those beats that fit almost any Anime.

I know I'm underage, but I love cars! I just love them to pieces. Since I'm only 14, I'm big into model cars. My dream is to grow up, own a replica of Soul Eater in Scythe form, have an AE86 car, a nice house, kids, and of course, a wife that I love to pieces. Someone who I will care for the rest of my life. I've even made myself a promise, never to cheat, because well as Soul would say "it's not cool." I agree with that. I'm an honest person.

I'm not a fast thinking, but when it comes to solving problems, or just being plain old witty, i'm that guy. I'm a geek, I'll admit! I even play the trumpet. If I'm not asleep in class, I'm writing, or sneaking on to forums on the school laptops and posting my little tucus off.

Is that enough for you? Or would you guys like to know a little bit more?

I will tell you july 20th was my 16 birthday, so we are almost the same age, and that I like also graphic design! I love cars, indeed I am very fortunate to have a new one (i blame my brother for this car xD )(xmas present), but it is no thing as a Ferrari, or even Mercedes(ahhh, it would be so sweet to have one) it is a Honda car... City model, silver color, indeed... And at solving problems(just at solving problems)... Im a super geek!!! Ill tell you I have this laptop with a graphic chipset Intel GMA 4500M... And I really wanted to get to play Borderlands, I edited all the config files and even some DLL files and got it to run at a 800x600 res at 20 avg FPS... ^^; told ya im a bit tech savvy(I want to build an Intel i7 PC with a Nvidia GTX 480)... But I do not use the PC a lot... just what is needed.... And gaming of course(I like better hanging out with friends), and I'll tell you, I am also writing a book-notebook which i call A Portal To Paul's Inner Mind!!

Glad you have all written here!!!

I don't see any discussion here. The information people post here can be seen directly on their profile that can be seen by anyone. It's nice that you want to learn more about the AP members but it's best you find an AP social group that cater to this.

Hello. I'm also from Mexico :P I'm from Baja California and I'm 22. I'm kind of fit cause I go to the gym and eat a lot of fruit and vegetables and stuff. I'm studying Education at UABC and I'm really excited about my career. My friends are great. They manage their life great with study and parties, unlike my highschool friends wich were all alcohol and zero study.

I don't have a girlfriend at the moment but I really like someone at my school. She's the prettiest girl alive. I freakin love her :) Here, people who likes anime, are also tagged as "otakus", but I don't really care cause I'm fit and I go dancing every weekend and I have other interests. It's not like people think I don't have a life or anything.

About my other interests. I love cinematography. Since I was a kid I've always liked movies and since I'm at university I started reading more about cinema. I'm totally hooked on the art right now. I also love to draw and paint. Also a passion of mine since I was a kid, and I've been developing it through the years. Since highschool I also started playing piano and guitar, so I know a thing or two about music as well.

My favorite bands are rock in spanich bands like caifanes, mana, enanitos verdes, etc. I also love metallica and 70's-80's rock and things like that. In recent years I found it I actually love to dance too :P Salsa specially.

Well, that's about it. I'm waiting to read more about the userds here :)

I'm from Islamabad, Pakistan and I just got done with my Master's degree just a few months back (just have my damn thesis to finish that i dont wanna :() I'm a Taurus and I love my routine life and i hate many changes in it. Cause frankly, its a pain. Yes, im perpetually channeling Ryner (from Legend of the Legendary Heroes) in my real life XD

I love to read manga, especially shoujo manga but anything works for me (except yuri and hard yaoi) as long as its got a GOOD story, solid characters and nice art :D and by nice art i mean proper body proportions please T^T

In real life, i was the bit of the joker of the group who was always joking around with everyone but my whole group was like that. We weren't the popular crowd but more like the people on the 2-3rd step of the social ladder ^^;;; And for some odd reason, im the class get together coordinator. I have no idea how the hell thats happened but whenever there's a get together to be arranged, it falls on my head and im like "trying to get all of you together under one roof is like a one legged man trying to herd sheep on his lonesome!" XD

Hola. My name is Simon and I'm a musician. I'm 20 years old and live in Melbourne, Australia. I'm currently studying Audio Engineering, and my hobbies are Anime/Manga, competitive video games, playing my Piano/Guitar/Bassoon/Singing, and studying psychology/philosophy/literature/foreign languages. My favourite fiction author is Terry Pratchett and I love to physically exercise - jogging every evening is my normality. I'm a childishly-critical sadist and have many refined morals based on studies of philosophy from different cultures. Greetings.
