Newbie Marathon
[quote="sangye"]
sorry...
what's "newbie" mean?[/quote]
"newbie" also called "noob", "n00b","nub", or "newb" is a term for somebody who just joined a group and is trying to fit in, or somebody who is not very good at something. On messageboards you're usually a noob until you have like 50 posts or so.
Depending on how it is said, the word can be an insult or a friendly way of referring to somebody you dont know well yet. The way I use the word is a joking way of saying that somebody is bad at something. For instance my friend will try to throw a piece of paper across the room into the trashcan and will miss completely. I'll say something like "you stupid noob" as a way to jokingly laugh at him.

I'm the one who told her about that topic^^ because she didn't know about it so I said to her that she could introduce herself to everybody here if she wanted^^
Newbie or not, it's always nice to have more people introducing themselves here, ne ? ^_~ We're something like 289 members, but how many really introduced themselves..? :s 30, 40 people..? :(
I know some people are too shy and/or like better to stay in the shadow or don't understand English very well but still what a pity~ :( (((
Anyway, even if you're not a newbie anymore, let me tell you :
欢迎 桑烨~!! \(^o^)/[/size]

A noe.. k I'm pretty new u__u.. A noe... here goes?
Nick: Hikari
From: Canada (but 'tis chinese)
Age: 16
Birthdate: Nov. 11, 1989
Gender: Female :3
Languages: Chinese, English, some.. japanese? ... hoping.. despritely.. to learn more in the future <33
Hobbies: Singing, drawing, doing.. homework.. so frequently and abundantly it should be illegal.
Maaya fan since: .. a long time? Sakamoto senseei <3
Favourite Maaya song: .. really? That's too difficult a question for me.
First song: Tune the rainbow~~
Currently singing: Hashiru and Neko to Inu.
Has recorded.. somewhat successfully.. : Yubiwa.. (of maaya's songs)
Wants: To sing like Sakamoto sensei, to draw animation and be happy, to be able to touch the world as well as Sakamoto sensei's lyrics touches my heart.
Accomplishments for the world: Absolutely nothing. I just waste air and take up space :3
A little about myself in general: I'm.. uh.. currently living in Canada. I've loved Sakamoto sensei's songs since God knows when. She just writes and sings so beautifullys. I sing mostly Sakamoto sensei's songs, although I give them no justice and that makes me a sad little crazed fan. Currently looking for the Hashiru album, because it has karaokes that I'd kill for.
If anyone would give me such a link for singles? I'd love them forever :3
Oh.. soshite, hajimashite yorushiku ne. *bows*

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure you'll find a pretty great bunch of people here who share a common love of Maaya and other things Japanese related.
You might want to check YesAsia.com for Maaya singles. I couldnt find the Hashiru single on there, but I did find various others.
