I live in the garden paradise of Kent. It's convenient for work, but it's not going to be my first choice when I get around to buying a home.

Greetings, ANN.
(LOL that sounded formal) I've been here for awhile now, I registered 3 weeks ago I think. Damn, memory gap, oh well =] Name: Jeanne Paulin Gender: Female Age: 14 years old Location: Philippines ^^ LOL, I think that's enough of basic information. Anyway, you can call me Pau for short, if my name is THAT long. Basically, in my life, I love music and anime. Though, this is an anime fansite, I'll tell you some of my history of obsession and likes about anime. I loved anime ever since I was a child (the country I'm from is very fond of japanese anime series), unfortunately, I stopped when I reached the ages of 9-12. But I got back again at the age 13 up until the recent. I find Japanese Anime really fun and worth watching. LOL, I even have my 2 requirement before I will get obsessed with one series/ Manga: 1) It must have a good illustration and 2) Of course a good story. Okay, okay, that's enough. Anime series/ Manga also inspired me to draw. I really like to draw ALOT. Although, there are only a few of series I adore (hehe, I'm too choos-y), like - FATE/ stay night, Fushigi Yuugi, Fruits Basket, Naruto, some of CLAMP's (xxxHoLic, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle and Chobits), Black Cat, Get Backers, Honey and Clover, BLOOD+, Bleach, and Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (is that counted?) Apart from those, I'm also trying to find new series and some Manga series I'm not fond of. Aside from anime, I like finding/ trying new stuff. I'm also fond of drawing, playing the guitar and making web graphics (basically avatars and signatures for message boards) I'm also training myself reading books, so yeah. Almost like, errr, making it a hobby o.O I'm very happy to be a part of this wonderful community and hope to make friends someday! Ja! |

This summer I've taught Calculus 3 and Statistics (for the first half), and Differential Equations and College Algebra (for the second half), so you can see I teach a pretty broad range. We have a number of developmental classes offered as well so I teach those from time to time also. If you want to be a teacher, community/junior college is the place to be. You don't have to deal with parents or students who don't want to be there like in the public schools, and there's no pressure to publish or do research like at Universities. I just get to focus on teaching  I can kick people out of class too, if they're being disruptive, it's nice. ^_-
It's kind of nice to put faces and personalities to the different screennames you see here. This is an interesting topic to browse. Good to see people of all ages, too. I'm always afraid I might grow out of anime, but I hope I never do. Anime 4 Life!

Identical triplets...awsome! I know this is probably very cliche but I just have to ask (if you don't mind, of course!  ): do people find it hard to tell you and your brothers apart?
Haha Jeremy Soule...I've just been playing Morrowind. It's nice to know people who are into films are now interested in anime. I for one don't mind anime getting a bit more mainstream. From your website I'd say your pretty talented...ever considered making animation? Anyway it's nice to meet ya! |

Haha! Of course I don't mind! And the answer is yes. But it varies; people who have known us the longest can tell us apart (usually by personality), but whenever we meet new people we always have to re-introduce ourselves. I'm so used to it by now that it doesn't even bother me.
Jeremy Soule is a great guy. He actually lives only 20 or so miles from my house. We've exchanged many emails and he has offered to help us out in the music area of our films. We currently use Carl Johnson, but I'd love to grab Soule for an upcoming project!
Thanks! We actually just updated our site a few weeks ago. Hmm, animation? I'd love to get into the anime industry, but from what I hear you need mega-contacts in Japan. We're actually leaving for Japan in March and plan to film around for an upcoming film. I actually wouldn't mind visiting the GAINAX building and Khara studio while we're there. I guess I'll just have to wait and see!
Thanks for your interest in Trico Films! And nice to meet you, too.

Nice pic AG! Looks like we've got another cute girl here, just as I was suspecting!
Anyways, I just updated my profile to show that as of today, I am officially 21 years old. Huzzah!

Whoo! Happy birthday!! If I could, I'd hand you a chocolate cake shot in celebration.
That's probably why I had such craptacular bio professors. All they really think about is their research and means to fund it. |

Eh, I like most of my professors, but then again, I go to a small college. |

Yeah, that's not an easy thing to deal with usually. If you're lucky enough, sometimes you can find an adept T.A. or tutor to help you out, but it still feels wrong that your professor is so distracted. This even happens in graduate school. A lot of my summer students are just home for between semesters, working on internships and such, but they tell me the same stories about their schools.
I was fortunate to get my bachelors degree at a small college (~1200 students at the time), but again I did have to pay for that. Actually I'm still paying for it. Granted, what I paid for a private college 13 years ago is what you typically pay at a public university now, so I'm lucky in that respect. Glad to hear you like your professors, that definitely makes for a better learning environment.
