Announcement/DA Nakama

I would like to apologize for disappearing for about at day or so and perhaps worrying you. Im alive and well. Just some changes happened lately. As of yesterday I began my first day in the gym.  I went swimming for an hour that day, and went to the library and grab a pizza afterwards. Then when I got home that night my father disabled the internet (with only his laptop with internet access), making me unable to use either I-pod or Computer to reach to DA. He done it for two reasons: 1. So that my younger sister who's preparing to finish her finals today, so that she'll be able to study without distractions. 2. So that he can test my dependency on the Internet for that day.

Personally I was a little pissed by that, me an adult, a junior in college being kept in a short leash like that. But I respect his intentions and the fact that it's his house and that I'm his son, and while protesting alittle respected the decision.

Today at my second day in the gym. My younger brother, who's graduating from high school this Friday who's been a member in the gym for a  few months now, has shown me the ropes on some body building equipment. I went and worked out mostly on cardiovascular (have a great lower body strength from walking and exercise cycling, it's my upper body that's wimpy) and some upper body exercises. I went from 1 to 3 of exercising before leaving for the day. Then went to the nearby library to read while I drink water. Then walked home. Ironically my brother stayed behind to swim and was picked up by dad and they beated me home, even after having about a 30min-1hr head start. (Walk from home to gym/library is about 30 mins, just that I took a detour at the library).

Earlier that day, before me and my bro left for the gym, my dad gave me a driver's lesson. While I made some mistakes it went well basically.  So for now on, for about this month I'll go to the gym and/or have driving lessons in the morning and won't be able to come back till the afternoon or so. And reminder on Friday my bro is having his graduation so I may not be able to be on for most of that day.

As for my DA Nakama requests please bear with me, I just got back on the computer with internet. I'll fill them soon, and please don't be a stranger anyone is welcome to it. It doesn't matter to me if you're a BFF or a minor acquaintance, it'll be a honor to have you a part of it. DA Nakama Info below.


In Japanese the word Nakama (仲間), means comrade, friend, colleague, acquaintance. To some people it's informally translated as "closer than family."  All those definitions is how I see all of you.

It's a long time coming I guess you can say Im starting a DA Family. Only unlike most DA Families, family titles will be limited. I mean it's weird to call anyone mom, dad aside from my real mom or dad.  So here's the deal.

In this custom DA Nakama, I can call you guys by things like brother, sister, cousin, pet (XD), BFF, good friend, friend, comrade, acquaintance, colleague. Any of these titles are negotiable yet also can be customized. Once all is said and done I'll post you guys to my DA ID Profile.  That aside I'll also post artists that are role-models and inspirations, and favs below the Nakama. So that while loosely related they'll still be part of it.

Most of my life I been a loner and barely had any friends and acquaintances, especially after losing a good friend a long time ago (she's alive but well too far away). Thus I been suffering in silence for a long time now.  Because of this DA was my first and only social network.  

But joining DA and meeting you guys finally made me  feel more like a person capable having lasting relationships with others. And while DA has provided me with some new stresses and problems as of late, it comforts me that I always have my friends to count on. You guys made me feel comfortable to be around with and do whatever necessary to solve my problems. Makes me only wish I can return the favor in kind somehow.  So it doesn't matter to me how minor or major a friend you all are too me, it's important to me if you're part of it.

Thank you for being my Nakama.
