Pretty much exactly how my parents treat me. I guess it's a bit understandable since they never really did experience issues that we encounter today, but it's still extremely frustrating when they don't even bother trying to sympathize. Writing all my frustrations down really helps clear out my mind. Instead of taking my anger out on people (aka my friends, haha), I feel it's much more effective just to leave my thoughts on paper. Your parents emotionally blackmail you? And it's inevitable? I feel like I'm missing a few details here because I don't see what they're trying to accomplish by doing that. It's good that you've managed to find a few friends around here. The DCW community is definitely my go-to place whenever I need to clear my mind and get away from things. I like to think of it as a short vacation. Hrmm, your parents seem a bit stubborn. My mom is usually willing to discuss some of this stuff as long as it relates to her field. I rarely talk to my dad about anything nowadays since I really have no effective way of communicating with him. I can't even ask him for homework help because of the different language jargon. Calling someone abnormal is a very blunt insult. I used to take everything my parents said to heart so if they went as far as to calling me abnormal (and not in a joking manner), I would have accepted it without a second thought. Honestly, that's a bit cruel of them. Where: Not sure what "where" is supposed to mean, but if you're referring the impacts it has on human life or the human body in general, it very well affects a good chunk of both. Err, actually, scratch that. I think you're trying dive into loci. Or it could be that I'm overthinking your question. I think the simplest answer to this is that it occurs on chromosomes. When: Your genetics follows you before you're out of your mothers womb till the day you die. The onset of Parkinson's disease can an example of your genes affecting you in your later years. The latter is a bit easier to explain; take gender, for example. How: "when a man and woman love each other very much..." Typically, your chromosomes can undergo genetic recombination/crossing-over, nondisjunction, other mutations (translocation), etc., all of which are determined out of our control. tl;dr It's basically all because of genetics. Ahahaha, my friends and I always use Schrodinger's Cat to joke about our grades. here's a picture that overgeneralizes everything about his experiment

The mods seemed to have moved it now, so no need to worry. As stated before, you'll be able to find it in this section: http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/forum/forum/22-drawings/ It's under "Fan Works" Oh, seeing that you're new here, welcome to DCW! Hope you enjoy your time here!

You're better off moving this thread to the Drawings section. Also, even if some of the images have watermarks on them, please state where these came from so people don't mistake them as yours. Thanks!

Nature most definitely has a role. Psychological traits can be passed down generations through genes. That's why people with severe alcoholism tend to see this characteristic in their families. Their children may never have this problem, but it will most certainly increase their risk if they ever come into contact with alcoholic beverages. The same can be said with intelligence. However, I feel that nurture is a much more important factor. Even if you aren't born as a child prodigy, experiences and influence can help counteract "nature." Don't ignore nature though. A person's genetic makeup still has a lot to do with how he or she will turn out.

aw, dude geometry was the bomb trig was also fun but in all seriousness, it was only because I had a calc test, essay, and bio homework all due on the same day I always write my essays late into the night because that's when the best ideas come to mind. ...also, my circadian rhythm is trashed beyond repair.

...a couple hundred more posts to go

I could name a crap-ton of people from books, history, and anime who I look up to, but I wouldn't say that people this current decade brought us were entirely bad either. My parents are first generation immigrants so it's hard for them to empathize with problems we tend to have around here. Communication between my parents and me is always an issue so the only people I'm able to confide in are my friends and sister. Otherwise, I'm usually on my own. When that happens, I vent on a Word document and save it for future reference.

Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu LOVE!???? ohmygoodness, my friend was raving about this a few weeks ago and I really want to watch it D: ehehehe...

gah, I've been wanting to play those for the longest time

Light Up the World - Glee I don't watch or listen to Glee, but I absolutely love this. Going straight to the Music Awareness thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRkspxNpELQ

wowowowow I just got one hour of sleep today but I don't feel tired. at all.

I procrastinate in my "free time"; pretty self-explanatory. ...and when I'm not procrastinating, I'm most likely doing homework in the most inefficient way possible.

I have mixed feelings about watching the Crystal Mother adaptation for the third. time. Also, I can't get used to Akako's new hair color. I miss that rich, maroon tint. I still can't get used to the new art style either.

the Bourbon arc was probably the most anticlimactic arc in the entire series

Racism will always persist. I mean, it's impossible to cure ignorance, lol.

Amuro had so much potential as a BO member. why, Gosho. why.

whoa, whoa, you guys. MK, don't twist my words. I was kidding, lol. I'm hetero. How did my gender or sexuality get dragged into this conversation anyway?

It's probably not that unique, haha. It's either most people don't realize they're cross-dominant or they never bother to admit it. I didn't even know I was cross-dominant until a friend of mine pointed it out. In my case, the cross-dominance seemed more forced than natural.

brb, packing my bags and heading off to Russia jkjkjk, haha

I feel like you're trying to imply something..

just imagine how dead DCW would be years after DC ends.

I think this will do the trick

My aunt and uncle also tried to convert me but apparently, I was too stubborn so they gave up, haha. I don't think I would have been cross-dominant if it weren't for tennis. None of my coaches realized that I was left-handed so I've been taught to play with my right hand for practically my entire life (geezus, I envy left handed tennis players so much). As a result, my right arm is stronger than my left arm which I guess is why I tend to prefer my right arm/hand over my left when I'm doing stuff other than eating and writing. Not very convenient.

Left-handed for eating and writing but right-handed in pretty much everything else. Also known as cross-dominance. it's a bit annoying.

remind me to ask you to help me on my college essays next year
