    [7/18] Korean protesters deface Japanese flags, kill national birds

    Not good... Okay. I'm Korean and I understand the war vet's pain, but to kill Japan's national bird and lay them out on the Japanese flag is a bit much. Korean's are so kind and peaceful so it actually surprises me to hear about this public act of anger towards Japan. The most hateful thing...

    Dokdo, the island of dispute??

    Wow. Yeah. I forgot about the cultural spread. The first man to travel to Korea was Chinese and the first man to travel to Japan was Korean (although they hadn't established individual cultures at that time) and Japan's #1 religion (Buddhism) came from Korea. Even the Japanese written language...

    Dokdo Yeah. I heard about this argument for the 3 year's I was living back and forth from Seoul to Tokyo.

    What is she saying?

    Oh and Bryan tells me that she was on some show in Japan awhile ago and also starred in some small t.v. commercials in Japan so that's why she kinda acts a bit stuck up, but hey, if you live in my world (being asian) most asian girls who are "americanized" will tend to act that way anyways so ah...

    What is she saying?

    She's 22 and lives in Diamond Bar, California. The only reason I know this is because my friend Bryan's sister goes to the same university as her. Her dad was a U.S. Marine and he met her mom while he was stationed in Okinawa and that's how she turned out to be half American and half Japanese...

    Guitar Hero Sucks!!!

    Yeah, I said it. Guitar Hero sucks! Sorry, but I am and always will be a dedicated Beatmania player at heart.

It was later found out that this young male student had r***ing and even tortured...
