Thankyou
Song Title: VOICES
Performed by: Akino Arai
Lyrics by: Wakako Kaku
Translation:
The first word is dream
from my sleep
the darkness within my heart
it gently takes out
The second word was wind
telling me my destination
into the arms of a god
I flap my wings
As if counting sad things
that have melted away
a golden apple
falls again
A view I haven't seen
there I will return
in this one life
I will find my way
Book of old magic
a drop of moon on a curtain of night
only a hunch that someday we can meet
we can fly
we have wings
we can touch floating dreams
call me from so far
through the wind
in the light
The third word is hum...
when you strain your ears
your trembling arms
I will gently release
I have this song stuck in my head. lol So there it is, the lyrics - they're pretty arn't they? The title is Voices, and to me I feel like this song can really relate to me. Well, depending on how you interpret it :) right? I hope everyone who sees this can understand what it means to me, what it means to them - how it connects us. I would take moments to tell you what I think it means, but I tried...and realized that short is sweet and simple. This may seem like a half-assed thankyou, but I hope you all know that the words you have written relfects how I feel about you guys too. (I'm going to do this in order of person who wrote in the book, then the people who didn't get a chance to.)
Lynn: How long have we been friends? Doesn't matter, you were the beginning of my life here in Toronto. You led me into a new world, and together we grew up, profoundly shaping one another's lives. To me it's like you're always there - just next door - only a few steps away. It scares me to think that one day you may not be, that one day the image of us hanging out on your porch in the scorching heat, eating fruit with your 'lil bro will only be...a memory. Let's not let that happen, okay? I know you worked so hard on this project. Why? I'm not sure, but I think it has a lot to do with the fact that you just like over-doing it :P Heh, I'm jokes. Thanks Lynn, I hope you can figure where you fit in in the song.
(IOU LIST GROOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWssS)
D-Senpai: I'm surprised you even did a page! I didn't expect you to have any part in this evil plot...:P lol Well...lemme see where this all started, must of been during summer wasn't it? I remember I was really bummed out cause I didn't know anyone in my classes. I remember Keane saying, "But senpai is going to be there!" I was kind of nervous then because I didn't know you that well, but after we began talking (or..err writing notes to eachother lol) you really made summer-hell more enjoyably X3. I really like the way you designed your page, it's funny when you think about it..how many memories we've already made together. It's too bad that we only just started developing a friendship, and soon you'll have to graduate ;_; let's exchange MSN e-mails ne ne? I can't believe you pur the crazy little atlantis comic~! LoL And I really love your interpretation of PIG. All those other things you said about me, I don't know if it's true :P But thankyou.
P.S: OH GAWD ME BOOK! NO ME BOOK! LMAO
DYT: Ahem - meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow...*breathes* meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow...nyao. I know this is something only you and I can understand...or is it? :P Your page is so totally you, and I *think* I understand how it relates us. LoLz Thanks DYT.
(I'm not gonna comment on double pages :P!!!)
Eiko-chan: Nice ponyta!! LoL but is that really me? I don't know, I don't feel like that is anymore, but if you guys believe that I am, then I'll try to be that "ponyta" fiery and er...firey. :) I'm glad you see me as a really good friend, a "best" friend, 'cause I feel the same way about you. Er...friends forever forever friends...? Er...looks around...yeah, I remember!! :D;............loll, no worries 'Em, I promise I'll always be there for you, whenever you need me just gimme a call and I'll be around. We gotta promise to keep our Friday nights even when you leave for Uni., or else who knows what'll happen x_x...At least there's MSN right? No worries, I'm sure it'll work out...and if ever it seems like it doesn't, I'll MAKE IT! :F! I really hope you see where you are in this song ^_^ <3~
Vickz: Pink! Pink pink! LoL Lynn told me that it was originally red, and it's the thought that counts, doesn't it? Although, I have nothing against your page Vic, I think it's really pretty :D and you still managed to capture some of our friendship in it. For example the Peach thing, a little bit of our gaming history...and I can so see your work when I look at this page. Oh! And you know I like fans >:D! Yes, I know it's a fan! Sooo many memories eh? Memories only you and I would ever understand...noone else thought, "zerg babies" was funny, eh? : ) Some of those things, like the bomb incident...I was like: wah? But I'm glad you put that bubble page together, cause I want to remember these things. You help me remember ^_^. Even though I don't remember, there's a part of me that just knows all the stuff we've been through. And you're right, even though we don't see one another often...I know that we can always pick up where we left off :D if we can survive high-school, we can survive UNI!!!!! *huggles* Phone me ne time you need ^__^ and I know that I can always talk to you when I need...oh BTW Vickz, thanks for giving me Keane ;D, wow... A LOT of things would not have happened if not for you Vic ^^. I wouldn't have met Emerson either!!! :O!
Ritz: LOL................What can I say? I never expected you to put a page! I never expected you to come to my party! But you did and I think that's really cool. :) Thanks a lot, it means a lot to me :D. Your page IS creative, cause I know how long it took your Delight Crew to form that awsome screenie! Your page was actually quite amusing lmao ~ a TTC pic. And the Mirage thing is RLLY cute, almost made me want to make a Human Wiz with a Hatchling....you do know that I have an elven Wizz...right? :P! hahaha, I hope you didn't forgot to threaten your Bro for me :( He coulda at least signed the thing.
p.s: comedy central? LoL...I feel so sorry for you, you were prob like "WTH Do I put!??!"
Tim: OMFG TIM! LoL When Lynn and I were reading your "doujinshi" we were laughing our asses off....*I* shouldnt be a manga artist...YOU SHOULD!! It was REALLY GOOD...and At the same time I felt soooo bad for you cause you had to suffer that horrible experience. I guess that explains why I found you sleeping/drooling over your book :) aww. I think you're a really sweet, nice, decent guy, even though you have perversions :P! I don't know why you're so nice to me, but I really wanna thank you for all the times you've kept me company, or even helped me put up my chair :P I really think your interesting to talk to, you've honestly taught me a lot of things. Even though we've just met, I hope even after you leave school we can still talk. :D
T-Senpai: OMFG Thea!!! A: I didn't expect you to come and B: I didn't expect you to work so hard on something...for me!! Ahhh my mind still cant comprehend why you would give up this amazing artwork to me! I'm so very honoured by it and I've even grown an attraction to Kazuki because of it!! My mom even liked it so much that she want's me to laminate it! >:O Yosh! I really am grateful how you many to think of ways things related to me :$ I really like the way you drew Takeo - damn he's a HOTTIE! :P! I know we only just began to develop our friendship, so let's please continue *bows* do zou yorishiku onegaishimasu! (did I spell it wrong? x_x) Let's exchange mssngers!
p.s: I really think the most quietest of ppl are the most evil :P!!! Heehee, but naw, T-senpai is so kawaii~ kakuiiiii moooo~~!
Jade-chan: What can I say? You gave up a lot of time/effort/memories in order to make your pages. I admit that I don't remember a lot of things...but looking back to it I faintly remember. Thanks to you I learned a lot of things: patience, responsibility, how to have fun, and trust. If you read any of my stories you'd see how much your friendship to me means; and of course, you've read them all :D. You're my greatest influence, my biggest inspiration - we've shared our youth together, we've grown up together, and we've created new worlds together. If ever I get any of my stories published, your name will always be on the credits page. Every. Single. Time. I know sometimes you feel alone, and I'm sorry for that, but please know that I'm always here Jade, and i DEFINITLY know, that we will ALWAYS be friends. And if ever we're separted, I'll right a story that brings us together :D. My stories mean a lot to me, and Jade, you mean a lot to me. One big example: Haruka and Hinotama. You're my travelling companion :)
p.s: Tell everyone @ OCS I say hi and that I miss them. Tell them I'll never forgot all that we've beent through together, and that I WILL try to visit. ^_^
Ashley-chan (SISSY :P): Wow seems like forever since we just randomly started talking to one another in Japanese class! X_X That wasn't THAT long ago was it? Well, besides that you've proven to be a great friend, and I only hope I can return that. I'm mad cause I don't think I got you anything for your b-day, and yet you gave me 20$ and you paid to go to the restaurant. X_X You're so getting a huge Christmas pressent :D Trust me those Music CDS will be coming. Wow~! I feel like I've known you forever and yet I think our friendship is still blossoming~ Let's be sure to continue it! NE? ^___^; I'm really thankful for how you've been there for me at times when I needed it, and I think your an awsome person with an awsome personality~! Stay yourself!
Mishi-chan: Hohohoho~~!!! MISHI I know you couldn't go and I forgive you for not going :P! BUT I think we both know what our friendship means to one another. I've known you for forever, litterally, because no matter what time I look back on your always there. Your like my lil sis and best friend all shoved into one, and I know that even though we don't talk much we will always be friends. Hey if we've lasted this long we can DEFINITLY last 'till we're 80. Dudet, thankyou for all your support, thank you for your constant presence in my life, and thankyou for creating so many great memories with me. There's so many, I can't count them. :) But no matter what, I can always picture us...playing in the snow, swimming, dancing, singing, jumping from tree branch to tree branch, playing "make beleive", staying up into late hours and talking, and most importantly slapping eachother asses and farting in eachothers faces :"D Ah, memories. I don't have to remind you to keep in touch with me, 'cause I know we will ^_^.
Kou-san: Thankkuu Kou-san for coming to my party! I'm very :F that you couldn't stay longer lolz, demo daijoubu. Thankkuuuu for the cool raindeer puppet, I swear I'm gonna molest everyone with it. Tell Betty thanks for sighing the card thinger! And I really miss all those times we took the bus together Kou-san......O_O what happened to you!!!
Aiza: It's too bad you couldn't make it! (For w/e reasons :D) But I heard that you were making a page for me!! WHYYYY--I didn't even get you a BDAY gift ;_;....Ne way..Thanks Aiza, you are the supa-dupa lil evil child :P jkz....thx for being such a good friend.
My Rents: My parents....what could ever be possible if it were not for my parents??? I honestly believe they are the most l33test awsomest RENTS IN DA WORLD. What can I say, honestly? They rock, they just do so much for me...it...wow, I cannot even begin with words. If ever I had an ambition to get rich, it would be just so that I could give them what they deserve. They have literally made me the person I am today and continue to play an enormus(?) role in my life. I love them so much and I wanna thank them so much, because of them I have reason to go on, I have reason to create ambitions and to be the best person I can. I want them to be proud of me, and I know I may not do so, I know in many way I have probably held them back in some way...I'm sorry for that. But Mom, Dad, I love you and forever I will appreciate what you have done for me, I have no clue how to do so, but I promise I will always try my best to stay happy, because, that is really all you ask of me.
:) Thank you.
Keane: You know what you mean to me, you know how I consider you my soulmate. Thankyou for loving me so dearly, thankyou for always holding my hand through each and everyone of my experiences. I consider you and I one person, I consider you to be my foundation. I want us to live this life together forever, I want all our memories to blossom again, and that we can create new ones. Always stay by my side, always smile at me, always let's stand by one another. In the future I know I'll always be with you, no matter what anyone else says. Keane, you have given me a great deal of my strength, you have shaped me into who I am now. Even though we've been through hardships, that are indeed, often tiring, I was us to grow together through these experiences and I'm so grateful for your dedication to me, to us. Thankyou for your willingness to sacrafice your needs for mine, I don't know if I repay you probably.
*sigh* I love you, ne? :) I don't know if there's anything I can say that I don't already know.
I'm not sure if I'm missing out on anyone...I'm sorry, I've seriously been writing this for hours. LoL, but......I wanted to apologize, if ever I hurt any of you in any way, or if ever I have not treated you how I should. If ever I have been selfishly sad, I'm so sorry, I should realize that my life, my friends, the people all around me is worth any pain in the world, and that my pain is just an illusion, especially when there are so many people around me that care so much. Thanks, guys, really, thanks.
p.s: To Daniel: GRRR!!!!!!!! :F!!! *glomps*
