haha...!!! this is funny!!! i think you should elaborate more though... not to be a nag or anything but MORE!!!



I thought Geishas were all just prostitutes but I guess they are not.




I mean who gets to see a real vampire or a wolf who changes into a human?
this is why i would want to be bella if i had to be a charcter in a book.

I was almost gonna chose him too! I liked his adventures, and would very much like to go through his ordeals. I also wouldn't mind being smart xD

so basicly your saying you wish you lived in a fantasy world if you go you need to let me come because i wanna fly and play to lol


Cool!! Goku, but without the dbs he would of been long dead ha, and he uses the same moves over n over to kill his opponent spirit bomb!! ftw. MAN!! I miss dbz. I wish they made Dragonball Z AF. But yea dbz brings back the good old memories, toonami sigh

Sayuri is such a beautiful and compassionate character in Memoirs of a Geisha. Reading that book also made me fall in love with the artistry of Geisha. I learned a lot about the purpose behind the cultural traditions, which are a lot different than most modern misconceptions of prostitution(as you noted). I also recently saw an expose on the first European woman to become a full fledged Geisha, the reasons she wanted to do it, and the long road it took to gain that status. Although it is a diminishing art, it certainly is still one to be respected amongst the women who dedicate their entire lives to perfecting this artform.

haha... i know...!!!

He is like the expieriences of life gathered together and put into o person, some times its sweet and other times its a terrible nightmare that seems like it has no end; thats why i feel so proud of this character

I didnt know that ther was a dbz book i only thought it was a cartoon, i liked the cartoon though i watched it on the weekends a long time ago an that cartoon made me feel relaxed and entertained me. Oh and the cartoon reminds me of my uncle because i thought it was funny that a groun man like him would like that cartoon, one day i went to visit him and i saw him waching the cartoon i was in shock, Jk

would you recommend this to anyone who is experiencing difficulties in life??? How has the book and the character you talked about inspire you to become a better person these days and how did the book change you as a reader and as a person in general???
