Why on earth are all the movies I want to watch nowhere on the internet ? Does anyone know where I can watch "First girl I loved", and "Barash" ?

I'm salty.

You write like my French speaking friends
Anyways that's pretty cool I guess, world's pretty big, didn't think I'd find other Quebecers here
There are other Canadians ofc, but like idk, specifically one province is a slimmer chance than the first

You from Quebec too?

(http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/972/842/1aa.gif)

Nice to see people from same province. Though i'm learning French myself.

Yea. You're learning French? Where you living somewhere else/what's your first language?

Ah.....Montreal.

I usually speak English. Where you from in Quebec?

Ah my bad, I meant " were you living somewhere else", I wasn't creepily asking what city you lived in >_>
I'd be surprised if you lived in Montreal since ever, but is meh with French, unless your parents don't speak French, or you're relatively young/went to English schools, idk.
Ok so, you're learning French. Isn't that pretty harsh given that almost everything in Montreal is primarily French? (There's a lot of bilingual/English versions of stuff, but I don't need it/rely on it, so I don't notice what isn't in English) Unless that you mean that you're learning and gotten a good deal of it down at this point. Is English your first language?
Oh another thing I'm curious about, do you read/buy manga in French?

No way, I'm originally from Nova Scotia. Therefore, I can't speak French hardly at all.

I do keep meaning to so I can read Franco-Belgian BDs, but I can never stick with it.

What are you interested in reading?
The public libraries' BDs (most books tbh) are always in French, I don't know/I wonder what's actually mainly/only accessible in French.

I was incredibly naive at the time since even though I knew it was an eroge, I thought that "Surely it can't be porn, it's probably some completely normal sex scene that isn't meant to titillate the player but instead has some purpose to the plot as to why it's being explicitly shown. After all, Fate/Zero was pretty mature." Ahh, I was so wrong, so very wrong.

I should've known the writer of Fate/Zero and Fate/Stay Night are completely different too.

This is literally what happened to me if you liked Zero you should read Fate/Apocrya it's very interesting and reminds me of zero

Well, I've got original-language scans Spirou 1-50 and several volumes of Sillage, plus physical volumes of some Spirou stuff after that, some Pierre Alary stuff, Nävis, and a couple of random things I picked up here and there.

I do have a couple of translated volumes of Spirou and did a probably terrible fan translation of one volume of Nävis. But that's about it.

Also, I just watched the new Death Note live action film today and it was amazing; definitely a worthy sequel and installment into the series.

Btw @Nezchan, is there any way to contact you online outside of the forums? Like Discord or something.

Didn't think I'd ever see people talking about french BD here. If you like french/belgium BD, I'd strongly recommend to read Gaston Lagaffe and Le Chat. I'd also recommend les Schtroumpfs (IIRC, in english it's called smurfs), Tintin, Black & Mortimer (the classics), Titeuf, Kid Paddle, the Soleil edition ones and countless others.

My mom having a collection of something like 5000 BD, with many first edition that are nowadays worth hundreds of euros, I'm kind of familiar with this.

Also, public holiday today in France, which means a 3days weekend. I'm happy.
Although it's also kind of an important day for german too, I doubt it's publich Holiday in Germany^^
Am I right, Anon?

Should have given you enough energy to face a few hours of school at least... And the weekend is right ahead of you. You're almost there... ;)
Back when I was still in high school I often only slept for 2 hours a day...
Can't imagine doing that nowadays for a longer period of time... I'd probably just drop dead ^^

You're right. No public holiday here in Germany.
They don't even mention it here.
Everyone's just talking about the Feast of St. Martin.
Not a public holiday either but still very present...

You can catch up to me on IRC (check the menu bar), Discord and Twitter, I'm "Nezchan" in all three.

Come to think of it, this [now huge] thread being like the Tavern of this forum, and the place where everyone comes to have off-topic discussion, I think it'd be a good idea to stick it, Nez.

Not sure that's necessary. This thread is always on the first page of the forum regardless, so it's easy to fine. We also try to avoid sticking threads where possible, since there's already a lot up there. We have to be choosy.

I ended up sleeping past some lectures. Would be nice if we had infirmary rooms where you can just enter and rest here like in Japan.

2 hrs a day sounds terrible, I barely get past the day with 4 hrs.

...could've sworn we were at page 174 just now.

That would be great indeed. But if you just went there to get some sleep the nurse would probably end up scolding you and send you right back to class anyway... (;☉_☉)

2 hrs a day sounds terrible, I barely get past the day with 4 hrs.

And I'm pretty sure it wasn't exactly healthy either. I was just very stubborn back then and always refused to give up on staying up all night just because I had to go to school... ^^
I was mostly feeling great the first two days... things started to get a little harder on Wednesday and I was half dead by Thursday and Friday... that was also when my bones started aching and I sometimes felt a stabbing kinda pain in my chest... What lack of sleep does to your body...
But I was young back then, so I didn't care! ;)
And on Saturday I sometimes slept for 14 hours straight (^∇^)

You can't believe everything in anime huh? Although...if life was a yuri game, the infirmary room would be used for much different purposes and would almost always be empty hehe

Some pretty scary stuff you experienced there. My sleep schedule is somewhat erratic, sometimes I sleep more sometimes less. Can't say it exceeds 4 hrs though...

If life was a yuri game, the infirmary would be build solely for that purpose! ^^
And staff is only allowed to enter after the moaning has stopped (◦’ںˉ◦)v

Wasn't really scary. But it was pretty reckless, I guess...
Young folks usually do some reckless stuff... For me it was sleep deprivation. But on the other hand... I never drank any alcohol or took any drugs... So I was still pretty boring in that regard ^^
And tired most of the time ;)

My sleep schedule is somewhat erratic, sometimes I sleep more sometimes less. Can't say it exceeds 4 hrs though...

Then welcome to the club!
A lot of the folks here have some sleeping issues ^^
I still don't know if we end up here because of that or if it's the other way around (¬‿¬)

@ Blackkitty

but your lovely picture is gone!! what happened?!

Trump happened.
This is crape.
Official mourning period....
But the rainbow colors are still there! ;)

people who know me say that.. I had never failed an exam before.. and the fee I have to pay every time is high for our standards..

At this point I honestly feel that anything is possible... especially whenever money is involved...
Do you get to see your test again after it's been evaluated or do you only get to see the results?

it could've been worse, I just consume an enormous amount of black tea and I'm good up to until 5-6 o'clock when I have to fight sleepiness..will get used to it eventually ;)

I think I'm too old for a job like that... Would have been perfect for me back when I was 15 – 20 years old. Back then I almost never fell asleep before sunrise... (^_^)b
Those were the days...

one reason why I took the job is because of the night shifts - it might be silly, but it's a way to prove to myself I can be productive at night xD you know my habit of falling asleep early while watching a movie xD

Yeah, I remember. That's why I was surprised at first when I read that you had to work night shifts...
Thought that maybe you just needed the money ;)

on the bright side - when I'm finished with work, I'm welcomed by the warm colors of the sunrise and I can't help taking a little zombie walk to home while enjoying the scenery.. a lovely end of my day! ;)

That really is the best part of the day. When the whole world around you is slowly starting to wake up and everything is still so quiet and peaceful...

It was quite a while ago – so sorry for the extremely late reply (^_^“) - but I remember reading that you finished watching Transparent and thought the family was messy...

I agree with you and that's also the only complaint I've got about that show – too much chaos for one single family. And the kids are so unlikable... all of them! But I really like Maura and her entire story. Especially the quiet moments...
Seeing that you didn't stop after the first season you must have liked it as well...? Or not...? ;)
I'm currently watching season 3...

In the meantime I've also finished watching Sense8 a few days ago.
It was pretty good. Maybe a little corny here and there but still quite good.
My favorite was the Korean girl. She was awesome! ^^
Probably gonna watch the second season too when it'll come out.
