Hi everyone  . I've been lurking here for a month now, reading all of the great fanfics here that made me said "WOW!" thousand times  . But only now I dare myself to register. Haha. Well, you see my user name, but you pronounce it just the same with the word 'funny'. I'm a uni student, currently residing in Singapore, but originally come from Indonesia (anyone even been to Bali Island?). Well, nice to meet you all guys! . I will keep looking around here . Best, Fanny. |

Awww thank you for the warm welcome! Bali is so beautiful, isn't it? It's (i think) the most exotic place in my country . He he, and next time you came to Singapore, you can just contact me . Anyways, can someone explain to me about what is 'poking', 'exalts', and any other thing that I may encounter in this forum? Thanks in advance . PS : Christina, I heart your fanfics! |

Aww thanks hun!! I absolutely LOVED Bali! Beautiful place and everyone was so nice there! I'm dying to go back again with my friends once I get a bit of cash and a break from uni. Singapore was great too - but omg no chewing gum!!  lol Umm I think a *poke* is just people being silly and 'poking' each other to get their attention - this might be in order for them to hurry up with a chapter of FF, or a video, or a graphic etc Definitions of 'Exalt' and 'Smite' are in the FAQs thread - but in short, you exalt when someone does something you like (e.g. a graphic, video, FF etc) so their 'Karma' points go up. Smiting is when someone says or does something that displeases you, and their karma points go on. I think the admins have removed karma settings though. |

Yep, Bali is a must for travelling. Hehe. Which places you've visited during your vacation there? Kuta Beach? Tanah Lot? You must go back there someday. *lol* Yeah Singapore is a very clean country. You'll be fined for lots of things . But trust me, once you travel to much less fancier places than Orchard (you went there, didn't u?), you'll find garbages, gums, etc. Lots of them . O Ic. so that's karma means....and why did it being removed?? |

^ Sorry there was a typo in my last post. I meant "karma points go down " not "on"  YES!! I went to Kuta Beach! Love love loved it! I can't remember the names much, because it was about 5-6 years ago, but I really want to go back. It was so relaxing. I don't remember the names of the cities in Singapore either  lol But yes it was extremely clean. I remember being impressed by the advanced technology and public transport (much better than Sydney's)! What about you? Have you travelled much? Come to Australia, it's cool ;D Not sure why karma was removed. A possible reason could be because a lot of people were getting smited recently. |

Aw, so you're from Australia. No wonder you know Bali that well . I went to Bali once, and already forgot which places I went to *lol*. But yeah, Kuta Beach is totally awesome!!! You like MRT and bus system in Singapore? I liked them too when I first came here two years ago. But now, they're all seem boring. It's organized, very neatly. But it's becoming a routine, everyday just like that. Haha. I've never been to Australia before! Even though it's quite near with Indonesia. Must wait until I graduate, get a work, and save some money to do travelling, I guess. But definitely I want to go to Australia. Want to see kangaroo! *lol* |

Lol well it's probably better to have an organised, neat, routine public transport system than one where the trains/buses are filthy and graffiti'd, very slow, and it's more common for trains to be late than on-time. I can't wait to travel when I graduate too, but that's going to be like 4-5years away! But yeah, Australia is nice, everyone seems to like it - lol I'm used to it and take it for granted cos I've lived here my whole life. Personally, I like echidnas the best out of Aussie wildlife - they are HILARIOUS when they walk, lol! Anyway, enjoy the forums! |

A LOT! you have no idea... see... even my location is singapore! well, i've been to INDONESIA once, but not in bali unfortunately... I went to BINTAN... because its just a 45 minutes ride from SIngapore... i love Indonesia... I love the people there! quite hospitable and nice.. "*lol* Yeah Singapore is a very clean country. You'll be fined for lots of things . But trust me, once you travel to much less fancier places than Orchard (you went there, didn't u?), you'll find garbages, gums, etc. Lots of them " I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!! been to a lot of places in singapore alone...since the MRT system is quite simple and accesible... nothing to do at father's house lead me to places that aren't as nice and glamorous as ORCHARD.. where are you studying in singapore??? ------- HI CHRISTINA!! as fanny said a while a go your FANFIC are amazing... i think i might left reviews from some of it actually!! |
