Since all are due to pop up any day now...

As potential friends, you have the right to know that you do not really have to know everything about me, but to free myself from any suspicion, and to save you from unnecessary deduction, the following must be told:

(1) I am Ringo. I am not a Japanese.

(2) I have been turned into a fan of Detective Conan just this year (2013). I read all of the available manga chapters, and watched almost all of the movies and OVAs (and KID the Phantom Thief episodes), listened to the BGMs and OSTs, and made girl versions of Gin and Vodka, this year, credits to my partner who is one of the ultimate fans of DC (, KID, and B'z) who was once and will be (I hope) around here.

(3) I keep a journal about DC, because my memory sucks.

(4) I find Okiya Subaru really interesting, as much as I am fond of Gin and Vodka (and Akai Shuichi and Andre Camel). I am very much convinced that Maria Higashio is the cutest among all DC characters (even if she appeared only once--"cuteness" can be associated to rarity, anyway).

(5) (For us to identify any similarities,) I like watching films (from gorns to cheap comedy, especially psycho-thrillers and any movie with excellent cinematography); I just recently got hooked into watching TV Series (such as Sherlock, Game of Thrones, House, [and most recently,] White Collar); I am never really a big fan of animes (but I enjoyed watching One Outs, Death Note, Baccano!, Durarara!!, Gosick, and Hyouka); I like the manga Liar Game; and I also love reading books (despite being a slow-reader [--The Picture of Dorian Gray is my favorite book, Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus are cool writers/philosophers]).

(6) I am studying philosophy. I am an illustrator, a layout artist, and a fruit (?).

(8) I turned 19 today.

Questions? None? Great! Kidding! You can ask me anything, but, of course, I can't answer everything. Let's be friends, okay? Here's a cookie! *gives cookie*

P.S. Thank you, DCTP. Thumbs up for the layout.

You offer a plushie to everyone, I see. Have you ever ran out of it? Haha, go ahead. Enjoy the cookie!

Welcome to the asylum forum, and happy birthday!

Welcome to the asylum forum, and happy birthday!

I knew it! This place reeks of insanity, which is definitely a good thing. Thanks for the birthday greeting, btw. (:

Welcome aboard!

1) Happy belated Birthday!

2) I just watched the first episode of Game of Thrones last night. I... have a feeling I'll finish the first season today. It was that good.

Welcome to the forums. Happy belated birthday too. Journal is singular, could that mean you fitted all that in one book?? I had to do two and the second one's almost full. Also, if you are into TV shows, I strongly recommend Dexter, Arrow and Elementary.

@Jd: The First season is real good, but the second season felt , at times, downright gross to me.

Thanks a bunch. (You're awesome, btw. I heard a lot of stories.) GoT started well, and is going well. The second season is a bit of a downer, but the first and third (so far) are awesome.

Welcome. I don't know you. :V

It's actually a digital journal--just a single word file with who-knows-how-many-words-are-in-there-already. I'm still on the third episode of Dexter, and seventh episode of Elementary. Still a long way to go, eh? I'll try finishing them, and adding Arrow in the list.

Er, hey, we said the same thing about GoT. XD But I never really saw it as gross, since I find gorn quite entertaining. Haha!

And Welcome to the forums

Why, thank you, Jecka. How was the cookie? (:

[Ringo]

Welcome. I don't know you. :V

I don't know you either, so it's fine. XD

[mangaluva]

@JD: Keep watching. GoT is a damn good adaptation of some damn good books. (I can't wait to watch episode 9 of Season 3 with people who haven't read the books and don't know what's going to happen.)

Welcome, and happy belated birthday! WHooopeeeEEEE!!!!!!
