About Me:

My name's Shinichi Araki, I was born and raised in California.  I'm 1/4 Japanese, my mother is half and my grandmother moved from Fukouka, Japan.  I'm really bad at describing myself, it's alot easier to see for yourself what kind of person I am.

I'm not in college at the moment, but I would love to learn history to become a history teacher.  Or go to Japan and become an English Teacher and travel the country of where I came from.  My Japanese is a little rusty and I would love to become fluent if I do decide to be an English Teacher.

Requests:

I welcome everyone to message me, I'm here to make friends so I would be working against myself if I limited who could contact me for what reasons.

I'm only 19, I'm trying to learn from everyone around the world so I don't seem like such a shut in, haha.

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

Reading, playing the bass guitar and drums, writing stories, watching movies, daydreaming and sometimes being lazy.  I also love playing football and volleyball, baseball even, I can be very athletic so long as it's fun, fun, fun.  I also will say that working out and exercise is something I do for fun, keeping my body in shape is a hobby of mine.  I also practice martial arts and I have been for around eleven years.

Favorite Music:

Rock 'n Roll, hard rock, techno, industrial, some hip-hop.  I love all kinds of music, really.  A few of my favorite bands are Depeche Mode, Tool, nine inch nails, Queen, Rush, The Offspring, Muse and Radiohead.  I also like foreign music.  Music in general is a big part of my life so I'm always looking for stuff I've never heard before.

Favorite Movies:

I have a ton of favorite movies, haha.  I'm trying to come up with a list but I'm drawing blanks because I keep one upping the movies I pick.  Right now I'd have to say my favorites are Drag Me To Hell and An American Werewolf in London, but that'll change, haha.

All time favorites that never change are The Evil Dead Series, Boondock Saints and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies.

Favorite TV Shows:

Scrubs and Futurama, the only shows I watch.

Favorite Books:

Anything that's horror and suspense.  H.P. Lovecraft, Stephen King, Dean Koontz just to name a few authors.  Velocity by Dean Koontz is one of my absolute favorite books to read.  The John Rain series by Barry Eisler is good, it reminds me of a modern age James Bond.

Favorite Quotes:

If you have it, you don't need it. If you need it, you don't have it. If you have it, you need more of it. If you have more of it, you don't need less of it. You need it to get it and you certainly need it to get more of it. But if you already don't have any of it to begin with you can't get any of it to get started, which means you don't really know how to get it in the first place, do you? You can share it, sure, you can even stockpile it if you like, but you can't fake it. Wanting it, needing it, wishing for it...the point is if you've never had any of it, ever, people just seem to know.
-- Bruce Campbell

The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence. He's got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won't be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That's all there is to it.
-- Clark Gable

Yeah, Queen is... all time no.1
I believe Queen is greater than Beatles maybe many ppl don't agree lol
wha't yer fav Queen song? I loved somebody to love but now my fav is 'Save me'. I really love the guitar solo and lyric though it's very sad ㅠ.ㅠ

N, thanks for your hope ^^
I got beaten and heard many bad words from them and I can't forget the ******* but I can make my life good again :D
well, actually I didn't wanna go to Navy.
but In Korea, every male over 19teen have to enter military for 2 years. it is one of duty (forced)
many ppl enter after they got university or colledge (about 20~21)
but I wanna go to France for my studying. so I tried to go to military first. by the way, I couldn't go army coz when I tried to submit my profile, army recruited who wants to spend 3yrs in army.

I can't waste my time one more year. so I tried to go to air force.
coz Korean Air force Chief of the General Staff (4 stars) is my dad's good friend. but I couldn't go to the testing interview coz the day was my operation day of my wisdom tooth.

but at the time, I presented to navy too. it's just like insurance in case of that I fall off air force.
I didn't know how to do. one is just go to navy, and the other is to go to air force next month.

and I chose navy. anyway navy is 24 months but air is 26months.
moreover if I spent one month more, the day of to be civilian would be late.

that's why I chose navy.
just a single word is...
'coz I fell off air force.'

I have no aspiration or adoration in navy. just wanna go to military early, but I couldn't go to army and air force. lol

I challenged 'Somebody to love' but it was not easy to me lol
