- diamondkid10년 이상Awesome!
- crystalmori10년 이상This kind of reminds me of the book Matilda by Roald Dahl.
- bigmelo10년 이상I know, right? I loved that book so much, that I watched the movie, too! :D
- nikukyu10년 이상I personally think the book was much better...
- crystalmori10년 이상Yeah, I like how it gets into Matilda's mindset a little more. I felt like the movie turned her into too much of a typical Disney heroine, if you know what I mean. Don't get me wrong, I like Disney, but I also think it would've been nice to retain her original personality. She certainly had a very unusual attitude. The only thing I've never really liked about Roald Dahl was that he made several characters seem mean without good reason, and believe me, there is always a reason.
- crystalmori10년 이상I don't think I ever saw the full movie, but I know I watched part of it. I really liked it, even though it was kinda different from the book.
- panda0110년 이상Wow im so happy for her im sure she will go far in life later on and become a good person and be famous!!
- bigmelo10년 이상People say that I'm one of the best & brightest in my district, but I don't think I'm as smart as her! It's so ironic - we were the same age, we started to read when we were 3, & we both type really fast! Adora is totally awesome! :D
- crystalmori10년 이상seriously? I didn't start to read actively until 3rd grade. Last time I took a typing test, it was only 28 words per minute, and I was still the fastest in my class. I wrote my first story when I was nine, and started on my first novel when I was 12, and still haven't finished it. I'm nothing compared to this girl! And possibly bigmello. One thing I can brag about, is that I've watched more full anime series than, well, a lot of people. Around 48.
- bigmelo10년 이상Ha! Anime is a very interesting subject, & I certainly love the drawings, as well. Cool fact: I used to have handwriting sloppier than a 'Sloppy Joe', but now I've got handwriting equivalent to whatever font our messages on Dogo News are! The only contrast is that I write my A's in a different form. :)
- flowergirl1110년 이상she is sooooo smart!!! I want to be her!!! lol
- nikukyu10년 이상You are not alone
- dipperdippindots10년 이상congrats niyuku!! :)
- nikukyu10년 이상Thanks dipperdippindots! You have a cool name:)
- nikukyu10년 이상Omg she is so awesome! Same age, what a difference😵 then again, I'm one of the most fluent English speaking kids in Japan...My brother said I'm in third or second place or whatever. While I do think that's good thing to be proud about, I don't consider myself smart. I think anyone can be good, if you start early. I started English when I was 1 year old. At that point I was just listening to ABC songs. But as time flew by and I got older, I got better as well. So I want to thank my mom, dad and brother for supporting me all my life:)
- crystalmori10년 이상My parents tried teaching my Spanish when I was younger, but I only ever learned a few words. Probably because I wasn't very interested. I started learning Japanese when I started watching anime, which was about3 years ago, and these days I know probably over 400 words and the grammar rules. I still haven't learned much more Spanish XD. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it helps to be really interested in the language and culture. Oh, wait, my parents have been using 'atsui' and 'konnichiwa' since forever. So I guess I learned my first Japanese ages ago. But I didn't really start studying until I got into anime.
- bigmelo10년 이상That's incredible! Good for you, nikukyu! Keep up the great work!
- peacheslarue10년 이상Wow! Thats amazing nikukyu! You shud be VERY proud of yourself!
- Me11년 이하I like writing stories, poetry, and typing, too. We should be friends :) Also, right now she is only one year older than I am.
- RightHere11년 이상I wish I were that smart
