Third time's the charm?
•
by Oraizan
This is my third article so far, hopefully I can inspire some more comments then before! I really feel like just saying what is on my mind today, and I hope it will be found interesting to at least some of you.
April
Its raining currently where I live, and I find it really annoying. If eJapan had weather this would be a day I went on vacation. Thank god it doesn't.
The April election is approaching, isn't it exciting? I'm kind of tired of reading all the candidates articles and platforms (I have read every single one so far from start to finish) I wish it was the 5th and I could vote already.
This election is probably going to be one of the biggest, considering we have MANY candidates running this month with very strong platforms. Last election I did not get a chance to vote, but the candidate I would have voted for did win, so I am pleased.
This time around I am voting, and it will be a tough decision!
I also plan to run for congress this month, but now is not the time to write my platform.
Orange Party
I don't know if Geno will even read this, but here goes anyways.
I would really love to help this party get into the top 5. I plan on joining it for awhile myself. I thought that if non-congress active players would join and help out (if you believe in their platform) then it would easy make the top 5 above the inactive JLP. I ask everybody who can to at least go through and read Geno's articles, and learn about the party itself.
Geno is a very straight forward person, and I would love to see his dream come true.
Decisions
I have decided to put my skills to work for eJapan. I don't really know what this means just yet (and if you have any suggestions I would love to hear them) but it is what I have decided on doing.
I am very skilled in picture editing and using the program Photoshop.
I want to start advertising eJapan and our community and I feel that pictures along with something else would (maybe) work better, since people always stop to look at a photo, but words they can just skim though and forget it.
I don't really know HOW I will go about this yet, and I have a lot on my plate IRL to deal with, so I don't have the time to make anything super fancy, but I want to start thinking about how I can help my eCountry using my talents.
If anybody has any idea, feel free to comment or message me!
This puts an end to my not-even-close-to-a-wall-of-text article (yes that was necessary). I hope more people found it interesting then my last one!
Lots of love,
Oraizan~

But you can't get burned if your wearing gloves>
i think you may have mistaken the JLP for a different party. we're actually really active with our small core but we're in the same spot as geno's orange party trying to get up into the top 5 and into congress so we can get our voices heard 🙂
I think she meant NPJ.
And rule #1: Do NOT taunt people with Pocky if you have none to give.
Gomen, I did mean NJP.
@Marcus
but if you wear a glove the glove could catch fire!
@Tohru
Strawberry pocky too 😃. I was going to pick a chocolate one, would that be more tempting? I actually have some Pocky with me but I have no way to give it to you 🙁.
Chocolate Pocky is disgusting. It was wise to stick with strawberry.
I like chocolate better. but I'm not allowed to have it.
Dont hate on chocolate pocky!
Orazian, I am truly honored that you mentioned me in your article, and have promised to help me with the party. It is for people like you that The Orange party continues to chug along. If only the admin would take away that silly "Top 5" limitation, then at least the Orange Party could claim some small territory in Japan and get at least a little congress-voice along with everyone else. Ahh well...
I'm sure one day it will happen, so dont be discouraged! Actually I think that the 'top 5' rule makes this game more of a challenge, it makes you really want to succeed 🙂.
I hate that I cant think of anything to say, atleast nothing as good as your comment, LOL.
Lets make your dream come true!
Yeah, I've always disliked the top 5 thing. Maybe top 8 or 10, but top 5 is a little small.
But if it was bigger then top 5, it would be easier for people to come and takeover a party and make congress, right?
Nice to see you joined the op!
I also hope that we can make the party get in top 5.
Lets do our best!
Were can I find some pocky?
Asian stores?
There is a few chinese/japanese super markets near me that sell food and asian related items from Japan and China. I can't promise you have one in your area but you could check it out!
"Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one getting burned."
Anger is the force behind the world, it can be the hatred that eats you away, or it is outsourced at your objective. And sometimes... Anger will lead you to a new world that is better. Anger will make you attack, Anger will make you never give in. Anger can open your eyes or melt them to acid.
-What it means is that Anger can be good or bad, depending on what it is used for and if you can control it, or if it controls you.
Very true say 🙂
Please edit the article the JLP is more than active! I guess you wanted to write NPJ.
I did, as they said above.
