Ayame is touched that you're still asking for advice. Oh, and this time a guy wrote for advice, too! Good for you!
Dear Ayame,
Help!! My friends say that i'm too vivacious and get OVERLY-excited over little petty issues.
I have this project partner who's always OVER-OPTIMISTIC and two best friends (a straight-face and an annoying pervert)
WHO ALWAYS QUARREL! AND theres this hateful sadist who always comments on my blog.. Plus,I have temper issues at times...
-Person Number 1 (sorry Grimm is too lazy to look back for your penname)
Dear Person Number 1,
Well, maybe you don't want to hear this, but before trying to change other's personalities, you should start with your own.
Maybe you DO get overly excited over insignificant subjects, and maybe you really are too vivacious. Don't automatically
assume that you're perfect... don't automatically assume that your friends are just saying this to put you down. Even if you
don't believe that what they're saying about you is true, this is how you appear to other people. Would you enjoy being with
someone who freaked out everytime a speck of dust landed on their nose?
As for your over-optimistic project partner... OH HO HO THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH A LITTLE HEALTHY OPTIMISIM, ISN'T THERE?
-GRIN- YES, OPTIMISIM CAN BRIGHTEN YOUR DAY AND ANYBODY'S DAY... hey, um... Miss Grimm...?
-Grimm pushes Ayame over-
Look, Aya-chan, I'm sorry, but you're not the right person for the rest of her question. Bye! -pushes Ayame off stage-
anywho, over-optimism IS probably one of the most annoying things you will face, but trust me, you're going to face
a hell of a lot more people who are floaty and annoyingly Tohru Honda-ish in your life. Pretend that it doesn't bother you,
and use the fact that the project is not a life sentence to help you grin and bear it... waiting for calvary... the day
when you will be free...
If your two best friends are always fighting, then tell them to stop. Hehehehe... you've probably already told them, haven't
you? And they're not stopping? Oro... I had a problem like this last year. The best thing to do is play super nanny and
seperate them. You might want to spend time with both of them, at the same time, but maybe that's not always possible. If
they get a little distanced and they're not around each other as much, maybe they'll actually be able to stand each other.
I'm not saying you should go up to them and say "oh yeah, Grimm says that you can't be in the same room so go sit in seperate
corners. Here's a sandwich." because that's just going to not only get them pissed off at each other, but also pissed off at
you. Simply only try to hang out with one friend at a time. This will limit the time they spend together because they're not
around each other when they're with you.
Hateful sadist that flames your blog? Hahahaha... hey, I have an idea. Can you give me your blog URL? You'll see my master
solution to this problem in a few days... hahaha...

Dear Ayame,
I knew right away that you should be the one to hear me out, partly because I'm also a snake from the Zodiac but mostly because
I'm having a bit of fashion trouble.
I don't mind seeing myself as a casual guy but what I'd really like to do is find a specific style. What colors, would you
say, reflect a sense of intelligence? I like purple personally, but I just need a second opinion.
-Kyuubi
Dear Kyuubi,
Well, I'm flattered that you came here for fashion advice! -stands proudly on random rock, waves crashing, sunlight halo on
his head- if only Yuki would ask me for advice... -gloom-
Intelligence... well, purple is always a good option, like you said. Dark purple, though. Lavender makes you look more
im-an-idiot-oh-look-a-peice-of-duck-ass-let-me-eat-it type of guy, so always use dark purple. Really, most dark, cool colors
reflect a sense of intelligence. Navy blue, for example, is something you cannot go wrong with. Black is also one of the
best colors you could wear. Dark green is okay, but I would use that as a last resort. Crimson could work, but again, it's
not the best choice.
Ah... well, that's as far as colors go. For style? Don't wear polo shirts... they make anybody look like a snob... no tight
shirts, either, it makes you look like a male slut. Skinny jeans are overrated, they just look uncomfortable and ill fitting.
Um... Grimm? Why are you here again?
Well, Ayame, it's time for me to step in again. -pushes Ayame off- anway, Grimm here. Skinny jeans are overrated unless
you're emo... then they look hot. Hehehe... something tells me you aren' emo, so don't wear skinny jeans, okay? And don't
wear your jeans below your knees... that's just... wrong. Well-fitting jeans, a good-fitting shirt. Okay? NOTHING ELSE.
