School started back on the ninth for me and it’s been eating all of my time!!

I was a weaboo once…

But I didn’t really say “KAWAIIIIII, SUGOIIIIII or even DESU!!!!” The only things that I would buy/read/check out were manga,manga,MANGA!

I actually thought that I was a cat-girl. I was so obsess with yaoi. I would drew it EVERYWHERE. I thought that eating ramune and pocky was ‘teh japanese life style” But really, I looked like a fool, an idiot. I would hate watching cartoons if they weren’t animu. One day in 6th grade. I was drawing and my friend,Tannis told me that there was other art styles then anime. I simply brushed her comment off. She was actually right. My sister hated my ways of change. She always told me to shut up, or stop talking for once.

4 years later…

I have changed. Yes, I like anime and still draw it. Of course, I still love me some smexy gay animu love. Now when I go on any mainstream art place (i.e DeviantArt) The pictures I see are either simply beautiful, or nerve-wracking and seriously horribly (coughcoughmyartcoughcough)

I want to end my confession saying, I’m sorry.

I’m sorry to all my friends and family who saw me go through this stage. Especially my sister, who still mocks me with those horrible japanese slurs. I don’t really wanna learn japanese, just for anime. Or eat this kind of food, because it came from an anime. Also a sincere apology to my art teacher who thought that all I could draw is anime. (she was right) 

I’m sorry.

Back in fifth garade, I was a major Tokyo Mew Mew weeb. Y’know how some weebs want plastic surgery to make them look Asian? I wanted surgery to make me a catgirl with the ears and a real tail. I seriously thought that that was possible, and bragged to my friends about how I was going to be a ‘kawaii neko girl, nya!’

Nowadays I hate both the TMM fandom and my younger self with a burning passion.

In grade four (and possibly five) I went through a minor weeaboo stage. I was in an attempt to teach myself Japanese. It wasn’t that because I like anime, but because I liked Japanese. I was always watching anime and making references to it. Me and my friends also played a game we called ‘Pezlamoon’. It was a crossover of TOZ, Pkmn and harvest moon. We would make up these horrible character ideas too. I grew out of my weeabooness fully in grade 6. My friends (both a year younger) still have weeaboo tendencies (fangasming over naruto etc.) but are VERY nice people. One of them, that if you don’t mind sasuke or L in half your conversations, make an awesome friend. The other has so much anime merch. She acts like a weeaboo to mock them. Still she’s a bit of a weeb herself. Now I don’t really like anime that much anymore but still love going to conventions and watching it once in a blue moon. Heck I even buy something from an anime store once in a while!

When I was 11/12, I was a weeaboo. I used “Kawaii” as a compliment, wrote the most terrible fanfiction in the world, got angry when people didn’t know about “uber kawaii japanese kulturrr!!111one!!”, watched anime/read manga all of the time, spoke Japanese to my friends, and made my friends end my name with chan. I even wrote Mi-Chan<3 all over my books. Thankfully, this was only for a short time. I completely grew out of it when I was almost 13. 

Anyway, my friends did the same thing as I did, and because they haven’t grown out of their weeaboo phase yet, sometimes it really sucks when I want to have a conversation with them, and all they can talk about it “hawwttt yaooizz11!!!” and Vocaloid (which I always disliked). They still think I love this kind of stuff even though I’ve told them plenty of times I don’t. This one boy in class even tries to call me “onii-chan” in a perverted anime girl voice. Even when I was a weeaboo, I HATED THIS. Usually I tell him to shut up and he stops, but it’s still absolutely disgusting. Another problem would be my parents. They think my life is dedicated to anime, manga, and Japan when it’s not. 

When I was about ten, I had quite a bit of an obsession with Vocaloid, Shugo Chara, Pokemon, Higurashi, and likely a few more animes. (I didn’t know that Naruto/Bleach/Death Note even existed until I grew out of my weeb stage, thank god.)

I wasn’t as severe as some of the people I’ve heard of, but I WOULD try to get people to call me “Eevee” and even crawl around on the floor of my old daycare when I deemed it was fit. (The crawling stage only lasted about a week until the people who ran the daycare told me that it was dirty and that I should stop doing it if I didn’t want to be put into time-out. Yes, time-out.)

I also used to run around, calling people “bakas” and then giggling when they didn’t know what it meant or gave me weird looks.

It only lasted a year or so, and it wasn’t as though I would scream at the top of my lungs about my love for these animes; I simply drew them a lot, called people “bakas”, and occasionally carried around my Pokemon stuffies.

…I was still pretty bad.

If you still like it, then why not?! I mean, if my school had one, I’d join to find some actually really good animes and/or meet people who like things that I like, as people don’t exclusively like anime (usually). Just be careful, there’s a possibility there might be weeaboos in the club.

Bella won’t be on…don’t know how long. Some personal things happened…and she’s banned from online until further notice. I’d love if any of you followers would draw her something or write or I don’t know make something and then send it her way for when she returns??? Here’s her submit box… http://bellabot.tumblr.com/submit 

Or maybe just send some love her way? I don’t know…she’s my best friend and I already miss her..

Thanks! Oh my gosh, did you really? I didn’t realise people actually cared about this blog…’till I came back after much inactivity and saw we still have 229 followers (more than I have on my personal blog!)
