Nara

XD Haha Possibly, Mainly got that name in middle school for cutting my hair, to which a friend started calling me "Narakun" (after Naraku in Inuyasha) and over time I just gotten used to it and it eventually got shortened to Nara. But I know I was flipping when I found out Shikamaru's last name was Nara hahaha

SHIKAMARU FTW. Welcome to the party bro, while there may not be any ramen or dragonballs there's certainly a bunch of encouraging peeps here for your progression pleasure~ :3 -raises glass- here's to your future lvl 9001~

XD" Hahaha To be fair I have more upper body strength than lower body strength, my legs don't like me very much ;_; And that move is like the keystone of distraction assassins, although I would prolly enter by singing showtunes or something of the like and adding +10 to enemies confusion stats HAAA.

So as I dawdle around waiting for the next challenge to start (like to start things from beginning XD") I shall use this for accountability and any random circumstances that may occur on my adventures *3* If you were a psychonaut pokemon trainer, would that eliminate the need for psychic pokemon? (random question) Anyway~ Started last monday on my plan to become "fit", and it pretty much was trial and error, what was too much and what was just enough~ ended up with this: -Mon/Wen/Fri : 20 Min Cardio warmup, then the beginner bodyweight circuit. -Tuesday and Thursday would be yoga, or stretching (or walking stairs at school instead of elevator) -Saturday: Special day of tiny temptations like eating chocolate or whatnot. (CHOCOLATEEEEE.) Diet-wise would turn paleo: dump junk foods and sodas and such, and stuck pretty good with it throughout the week, no temptations and had pretty good amount of energy. Week 1: YUS. Currently Week 2: Still Yus, although I did cave an eat one cookie while i was baking like 42 (I made them tiny, baby cookies!) Today's progress since last week, decided to push myself and see how far I could go before "failure": 30 Squats (+10 increase) 18 "Knee" Push ups (+8 Increase) (Not exactly sure when to get off knees and turn to actual push ups but eh) 11 Lunges (each leg; +3 increase) THEY KILLL... 16 Deadweight Rows (20 lbs; +6 increase) 40 Second Plank (+25 seconds) 40 Jumping Jacks (+10, could've gone for more though) But all in all Pretty good :3 All in the quest to be a Parkour babbu, although all in all I think I'd be more of a "distraction" assassin than anything, since my sneaking isn't so good. Oh well, everybody needs a nutty ninja XD

Hey~! Sounds awesome that you were able to push through that low! And that your getting comfy in that refime you got there- Congrats on the loss! YOU CAN DO THIS DOVAHKIIN. P.s. Nice Psych reference XD

Niceeee xD I know my friend was having a Star Trek-a-thon on Netflix and she was on the one with the cling-ons I think. What cons do they have in your area? I know the main ones around me are Metrocon, Megacon and Khaoticon, although I'm prolly missing a few. :3

That game does look pretty neat, I know the doomsday/darkness bit made me laugh xD comedy and game promotion woop! And dunno about the kickstarter thing, don't know the creator and the whole sequel was a "up in the air thing/rumour" anyway xD

YUSSSSS.... which actually reminds me I need to beat wind waker and twilight princess e_o

D'AWW, we can pretend the arrow got married to his knee though :3 What a happy couple~

Sounds like a good plan you got there! Stick to it and you can loose those pounds in no time~!

Welcome to the fray, Mr.Moose! Awesome Nerdiness combined with the drive for justice and the reigns of order? You pretty much got this challenge in the bag man. What all kinda series stuff and Nerdy stuff you into? Western style comics, manga, skyrim, bioshock, etc. I'm kinda curious XD Just remember too, don't forget baby steps! or duck steps e_o duck dubstep?

Sir, I do believe that is because you have arrows in them. Just saiyen.

Heheheheh can't help myself from the dorkiness XD Seems a lot of people are that way, eh? Be weird from the mainstream and all the other society fishes are all "WHAT. I DISAPPROVE SON." and then we all just kinda kick back and wait for the right moment to get back with our true selves. Kinda like Jaws e_o But it's awesome that you've been improving! Soon my friend you shall evolve into a majestic pokemon that makes all the trainers go "WOAH." Hahaha~

I know and it's so sad because of how enjoyable it is D: Apparantly the creator is ready to make a second game but there's no company willing to back him on it. (Not sure how true that is but still a sequel would've been awesome given the ending XD) And I love ALL your choices XD I pretty much like all of those games except I haven't seen/played enough of the tomb raider, dishonored, of half life to know, except I remember the head crabs. Dem head crabs.

Kinda curious to see all of your answers mainly because of various observations I've been making since (re)starting fittness training last week :3 Just a kinda game and why sort of thing, such as mine would be Psychonauts since travelling between other peoples perceptions of the world in their minds (along with having various mental abilities like pyrokenisis and leviation) is just pure awesome being a character/world builder and all.

Hey there! Nice to see you jumped on the fitness climb to greatness~! For one, Red pandas and Pandas are adoreable, just a big round fluffballs of veggie eating goodness XD Seems like you got a fondness for water with all that action going on, and I feel you about the lay around temptations, got a lot going around on my end as well... But I hope that you and your mom's relationship gets better and your able to travel with your sexy red panda self~ (That and the fudge WOULD be amazing, guh now i'm drooling e_o")

I double between digital and traditional pen and ink. It's nice to have something hands-on to lean back onto when your not in the mood for digital works~ Character concepts? That sounds incredibly awesome! It's nice to see people having fun with creating characters and designs and such, seems characters in RPGs tend to be most interesting looking because of the personalities behind that character

Well, perhaps not THAT fire nation but the fires of passion and determination! Nara here, and I shall gladly introduce myself to you! To be honest this isn't the first time I've found Nerd Fitness or the community, but I would remember looking through the articles and being motivated to do something... but something was missing, I didn't find my spark. And sparks are needed for the fires of desire and to burn evil power hungry rings in firey volcanos guarded by EYES OF FIRE. But now I have found this spark and I'm ready to try and raise to my full potential with all of you! While weight is indeed a problem with me, with a series of trials and failures and disapointments and temptations, there was something else blocking me from the hoard of treasures that were hidden right in plain sight. And this was ability to truly be myself. My spontaneous, overimaginative, crazy self that society has supressed over and over. And it's with this realization that I can truly quest for things that I can obtain: -Fitness: For the adventures and MMO that is our world! -Artwork: Be able to be able to further pursue further progression in my illustrations, and share them with others -Become the next Hokage: You better believe it! ;D -Life: Because it is a giant scary rollercoaster. But sometimes the rush is worth it. -Freedom: The most important goal. For it is the one with most hardships, but the moment you can finally break free and truly be who you are in a dark world, it is the best liberation one can possibly imagine. And it is this that has me coming out of lurkerdom of the shadows and telling you all this. For Change. For Freedom. Bring it On.
