about neko...
Haaallooo~~ :D This is Antonette, but you probably know me as neko. I was born in the Philippines on the 9th October, 1986. I now live in Hong Kong and I've been living here since I was a year old. :) Oh, and I own EIEN.NU. :P

I like taking photographs, especially of my lovely Blythe and Pullip dolls X3 I use a Nikon Coolpix 3100. I'm currently in love with Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park. *dreams* XD Too bad he's married. Ah well. I love the color PINK. I don't think I'll ever get sick of that color. Ehehe~~ I like to listen to all types of music. My music taste is very very wide. o_O; So, instead of saying what kind of music I like, let me tell you the type of music I don't like. :P I don't like country, dance/techno and classics. I also don't like Maths >_>; That subject is EVUL I tell you!!


discovering DMB
I have a very bad memory x_____x; I can't remember how I came across DMB exactly. But I DO remember that I was a biiiiig fan of Dodo and her sites. :D When I found DMB, I just wandered around as a guest. When I finally mustered up the courage to sign up, the quota for that month was full >_>;; SO! I waited for a month and now I'm a member! :) Yay~! My official date of joining: 3rd February, 2004.


my avatars
Here are some of the avatars that I've used since I've joined:



I bought the first one from Chica in an auction on DMB. It was the first auction I ever bidded on XD. The second one is by Kachii and the third one was made by Dodo.


gifts
These are the avatars I've made for members of DMB:







Yes, I do realize I was very pixel crazy >_>; lol~ Whenever I tried to pixel an avatar to use for myself, I just wasn't satisfied enough to use it or I thought it was so cute that it would be nice for other members to have it. :P So I never actually used any of these for my own. :/ I hope their owners like them though ^^

And I got two gifts from Fei and Thuy(MewMew)!! Thank you!! <3




YKYATDMBW
Stands for "You Know You're Addicted to DMB When..." :P I started the thread when I finally admitted that I was seriously addicted to DMB! XD To my surprise, a lot of people added in their own reasons. I'm guilty of many. Here's my guilty list. (Compiled from the thread when it was last updated on the 18th September, 2004)

1. The first thing you do when you get online is visit DMB
8. You have no life off of DMB
12. You feel lost when you're not on DMB.
13. You've idolized certain prominent DMB members (eg. Dodo)
14. You've quoted phrases you found on DMB in your offline life.
15. You've forced all your offline friends to join DMB.
19. When you try to get home early from school/work to check replies to a post you made earlier.
22. You repeatedly visit DMB multiple times a day...even when you know there are no new posts. ex: leave computer because you are bored...come back two minutes later and come back to DMB.
24. You write/post more on DMB than on your own blog/journal.
27. You eat your dinner/lunch at the computer, just so you can be near DMB
28. You think to yourself "Oh boy am I obsessed with dmb"
30. You help make a list like this one =P
31. You turn off your mp3 player just to listen to the members' voices on their profiles.
37. Your friends join DMB because you always talk about how good it is and they want to see it for themselves.
38. You log on DMB at school/work/friend's house, just so you can check on the new posts, even though you are supposed to be working/researching etc.
39. You go crazy when DMB is down
42. When you're meant to be getting ready to go out to a massive party but instead you're on DMB checking for new posts.
44. When you realise how talented all the DMB members are in different categories, and you suddenly feel proud that you belong here.
45. You bid in an auction and spend the rest of your sleeping hours worrying on whether you're going to win it or not.
47. You WANT to join other message boards, but just can't because you feel they won't live up to the DMB!
48. You even started a "You know you're addicted to DMB when..." topic. (<---- hahaha~~~)
51. You spend most, if not all, of your spare time on DMB
53. You're too excited to participate in any DMB event.
59. Instead of actually doing something, you just say "*does this*"


the end
DMB has been a wonderful experience for me so far and I don't think I'll let go of it just yet :) I've met many wonderful and talented people on DMB, I have to say THANKS DODO for creating this wonderful community!
