You recognize him, then? XD
No, I just find it amusing that someone would animate their lunch.
XD He scares little children when he tries to interview them. *shakes head*
But man, the people who can make bento like that have some mad skills.

Genki desu! Hikari-chan wa genki desu?
:/ I'm forgetting when I should use "ga" and when I should use "wa." Does Ayame-san or one of my sempai know?

I'm supposed to exercise every day (part of my "extreme" New Years resolution), but I don't want to do it in the rain. >__>; I'll just do it at church when I go to Bible Study tonight. The sanctuary is usually empty today, and it has enough space for a few good paces. I've been skipping my stretches the past few days too. ^__^;;

Well, today...
There was an announcement during class for all the students to stay inside their classrooms and not to leave since there was an emergency they were taking care of. They didn't tell us what it was, so everyone began panicking thinking it was some killer or something.
I was one of those people, mind.
Then like half an hour later, they go back on and tell us it was just a skunk. =__=

"wa" is your subject, main topic, time. "ga" comes before the end of the sentence following a "masu" or "verb" or some "state of being". I think. Could just look it up somewhere....

Hai, Genki desu!
The definition for "ga" in my dictionary is: "(noun-following particle marking the subject of a clause)
ex. Neko ga sakana wa tabe mashita. (The cat ate the fish.)
Boku wa suugaku ga suki desu. (I like math.) Note that the English translation of a noun marked with "ga" will not necessarily be the subject of the English clause in which it appears."
Another definiton: "clause-conjoining particle; but; and (following a clause providing background information for the following clause)
ex. Ane ni wa ketten ga arimasu ka. : My older sister has some faults, but I like her.
Chichi ni wa oni ga imasu ga, totemo kenkou desu."
I hope that helped. ^^ It made sense to me when I looked at it in the dictionary.
Yuuko-san doesn't know how to ride a bike!? D: Go make someone teach you! It's a thrilling sensation to go hurtling down a hill. XD

If it's used as a "but" to join two sentences, shouldn't it be "desu ga, (rest of sentence) desu."
