Happy New Year to all!!
I really want to do my recount on 2008, but haven't been able to find the time. So today I shall force myself to sit down and do a proper recount.
2008 has been a year of changes...
The year started off with a holiday trip to BKK with S01. (Heng we went last year and not this year.) It's our first trip overseas together as a class. We ended the trip with a surprise birthday party for me. Dear dear and his 'gay partner', Kerv, played a big part in planning the surprise =)
Then Ah Boy got married~!
Ah Boy become Ah Man liao ah!!
Next up was to pia FYP.
FYP started off with a mess because nobody has the motivation to so anything. But things got better as we work along. We often meet at either Woodlands Library or JE Library to do the report together. Finally we got it done! But sometimes when I read our report, it's total rubbish la.. Hahaha Heng got Pass ah.
So we sat for our last paper in uni and we finally graduated! After years and years of studies, we finally got the piece of (useless) paper!
Next up was a period with Johnsn & Johnson. I'm really glad that I made the choice to take up this temp job during my exam period. Not only do I get to know more people, gained more experience, I also got myself my current job (not that it's super great, but at least I got a job. Yep)
The stint with JnJ was made even more enjoyable with the company of people like Rachelle. She's so funny and we had lots of fun!
Naturally, I need a perm job and I finally landed myself in this job. I'm beginning to find joy in the job. It's all in the mind. If you think it's interesting, it's good, then it is! (ok, I've to try harder) It's really ok.. just that I hope I can have more freedom and space to do some things and not just listen to other instructions. I believe I have the taste, foresight and attitude to make things work. Yep.
And last but not the least, there's Dear~~
Somtimes when I think back, it's weird that we are together.. I mean 5 years ago, who would have thought that we will be together? It's all fate...
.jpg)
I hope I never missed out some impt events as my memory is failing me (yar la yar la, I turning 23 le la)
With that, I shall embrace 2009 with lots of hope (Hope to change job. Hope to go Canada. Hope to be healthy. Hope to lose a few kilo. Hope to shop shop shop. Hope to.....)
May there be world peace and no retrenchment!

after attending last sat's convocation ball, i've officially graduated. (yea i went afterall cos someone pangseh someone n someone has extra tic)
as usual, halfway through the dinner, some indian guy went on stage to give a speech and talk abt our 'past' and 'future'.
In public speaking, it's said that if we want to get our message across, we must relate to the audience. However, that indian guy caught my attention not because he said something which i can relate to, but rather, it's something which i can't relate to.
"Remember NTU, the place where you nurtured your dreams and aspirations....." (not the exact wordings, but something along this line la)
WRONG!
back in primary school, i studied very hard, cos i know i want to do well.
before every test or exam, my dad will tell me
"girl ah, no need so stress, pass can alr"
but pass is not enough for me.
When i was in p3, the top 5 of every class will be assigned to the best class. so i studied very hard cos i want to get into the best class! (partly also cos the guy that i admired is sure plus chop going to that best class too) in the end, i won a girl(i still remember her name is joan lor) by 2 marks to get the 5th position.
I had aspirations then.in secondary school, i joined chinese orchestra cos i wanted to make a diff in my life. i nv got to know so many pple b4. i worked hard for my studies and also for my cca. before o'lvl, my form teacher (mr phee) asked me to drop either A maths or Chem, cos i was struggling with my grades.(even my english teacher came to talk to me cos she thought female to female talk will be better) But i refused. I told him confidently that I DON'T WANT TO DROP ANY SUBJECTS. He saw the determination in my eyes, so he relented.
And i never look back. I got A for both subjects that they wanted me to drop.
I had determinations then.Moving on to JC, I started to think about my future.. what do i want to do in the corporate world? I thought hard. I had a rough impression of what i want to do in future. I know for one, i can't do science, that's y i do geog, something which i like and can do well (i did do well!), despite many telling me that geog is of little value in future. i don't care. i just want to do something which i enjoy and i know i can do well. and when i did badly after first yr, i know i have to drop physics even if it means i'll be technically an Arts student. Despite repeated rejections from the hod to let me drop physics (apparently cos they think i still have the potential to do better), I still insisted on dropping physics, cos i see no point in holding on to something which i've lost confidence in. and eventually, in 2004 cny eve, the hod finally signed on that slip of paper.
it was the best ang bao i got.
I had the courage then.So 3 yrs ago, i landed myself in ntu business school. i learnt alot in the school (just that i've forgotten them all too) and i've made many friends (of which i only keep in contact with a handful).
I gained alot, however, i've lost alot too.
I couldn't find the aspirations, determination and courage i once had.
for the past 7mths, i've been thinking what should i do, where should i go?
i felt lost.
i don't aspire anything, just give me a job will do.
somehow, uni had messed up my life such that i lost my focus.
or isit because for the past 20 yrs, we've realised that all that successful 也不过如此？
studied hard during psle cos u want to get into a good sch.
so u got into a good sch, but so what?
studied hard during o'lvl to get into a good jc.
so u got into a good jc, but so what?
studied hard again during a'lvl to get into a good uni and the course of ur choice.
so u've graduated, so what?
have a degree in hand, but no one wants u.
i'm not being negative la (bf always encourage me, so i nv lose hope) just that maybe i got tired of this stupid race to keep on with being the best all the time.
Sometimes, being the last of the race isn't that bad at all.
At least we get to breathe.

yeah!!!
finally graduated!!!
it seems so surreal actually. all the fear of tripping over my own feet on stage or the gown or just fall flat on the stage are redundant. hahahaha!
felt v gan dong to receive sms from moo moo, nick n my lunch buddy (she was celebrating bdae with her bf n she still remembers!) thank you!
also v gandong to see tw and leeching there too (although they are there to support peishan actually, but they took the effort to look for me) and yanzhen! (but she's there to support jiaying, and she doesnt even want to walk to sbs when i told her to come humph!)
most imptly will be my family who went to the convo with me. they had to help me to carry my barang barang and my bro had to be my camera boy. bf can't take good photos apparently, so shall not let him do that(he took a pic for me n my family n the photo is blurred!) but bf v nice, helped me to carry my heavy bags n v patiently waiting for me while i taking photos with my frens.
Bf is camouflaged!
This is the non-blur family bf took. heng ah, at least 1 not blur...
the fyp mates! do u see gerard behind!
jiaying n yz! we were considered as roomies once ba. hahaha yea we grad le, leaving behind yz still in ntu...
so that marks the end of my education.
at least till now.
who know, maybe 5 years later i feel that my knowledge is so inadequate, i'll go back to sch to get a Master! (actually it's becos i think the hat they wear is soooOOooo cute.. so fluffy, unlike ours, so stiff n ugly n uncomfortable..)
although we grad le, but i'm sure we will still keep in close contact with one another. we sure can!

"Take a deep breath when you get up in the morning. It may be hard for you to do so later on. People are incredibly demanding and, while you can take care of their needs, it will wear you out."
that's what my horoscope says today...
and it's so super true!!!
reached office at 8.30am and being a monday morning, there weren't many people in yet. i was still able to take my time to enjoy my breakfast. oh one of the manage bought krispy kreme donut!!! omg!!! it looks so totally superb! but i just had my breakfast n couldnt stomach that wonderful donut, so i gave it a miss...
then the work came pouring in...
the new list of claims, have to clean the data and start calling, laptop hv prob hv to send it for servicing which means i cant do my work!!!
can't stand having nothing to do, so i went ard asking for work to do...
send letters! yeah! my fave!
but not 500 letter!!!
yes, i have to send 500 letters... fold the letter n put into envelope and send it... i've only done like 50? 450 to go.......
another marketing head borrowed me to help him sort out and repackage all the products... woo, trust me, i know all abt toric lenses now... so i stood there n sort sort sort, pack pack pack... 3hrs of standing n packing and i'm not done yet! i even stayed to do ot for him...n there's still 3 packets to sort, but i dont care le la... he can solve it himself tml..
then my laptop has prob, cant sign in, cant use the system. irritated the IT girl until i v paiseh... wed gg to disturb her again.
oh great, i love my work!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on the other note, i'm taking leave tml!
that's like 4 days after i start work... but no choice la, i'm nt tking leave to pak tor k, i'm taking leave to go for exam lor.
and it seems to be a curse, cos i'm not feeling well the day before my LAST paper...
and i mean the very LAST paper. no more exam in future! (well, maybe there will be, but at least officially i'm leaving my student status)
oh and i realised that no one in the office has my number, so i'm not expecting any calls from office asking me where is that thing, can u help me to take note of that...
NOTHING!
just me and my notes... oh yar, and my caretaker.
oh great, i'm enjoying my exam!

it's the last day of school today.
hmm... having mixed feelings about it.
on one hand i'm glad i'm done with the books (not with exams though.. still hv 1 paper to go)
but on the other hand, i'm feeling v nua now... cant really be bothered to find a job.
so i've decided on a plan to slowly find a job while i enjoy the nua-ing.
will post the photos of the class with prof gonzales (read: generous with grade) when he upload to our class blog.
and thanks to nick, i'm feeling abit stressed over being unemployed...
but well, i've sorted out my thoughts.
slowly......... the one who waits will somehow get it.

since i'm doing this for my module blog, i might as well post it here to share with everyone...
Now that you have bought the camera of your dream, how should you go about taking care of your camera? Here are some tips you will want to jot down!
Tip 1:
Keep your camera in a camera bag.
An inexpensive camera bag is all you need to protect your camera from dirt, dust, and those unforeseen falls.
Tip 2:
Keep it clean.
Clean the outside of your camera by wiping it with a clean, dry cloth or soft camel's hair brush.
Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners or organic solvents on your camera or any of its parts.
Avoid contact with oily substances such as suntan lotion. If your camera has a LCD (liquid crystal display), breath on it gently to create some moisture, then wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth or untreated photographic lens tissue.
Tip 3:
Keep it dry.
Most cameras are not waterproof. If your camera has been subjected to bad weather or you suspect water has gotten inside it, turn off the camera and remove the batteries and memory card. Let the camera air dry for 24 hours. If it doesn't work, contact your camera's manufacturer or an authorized service centre.
Tip 4:
Purchase a one-time-use camera.
If you're going to be taking pictures in a situation where you're worried about damaging your camera, a one-time-use camera is a smart alternative. There are many different kinds, so one is sure to meet your needs.
Tip 5:
Long-term storage.
If you're not going to use your camera for a while, remove the batteries. You don't want them to leak in the camera. Be sure to store your camera in its camera bag in a cool, dry place.
As Singapore has a humid climate, you want to store your camera in a plastic bag with silica gel canisters. This is to prevent moisture from building up in the camera which may result in fungus growing inside the lens as well.

sick sick sick
这次真的大病一场!
sick of being sick.
i think i've been sick so frequently that nobody really thinks it's something new anymore. to quote that 没良心 tw "is being sick her hobby?"
*BISH*
mia from some major proj like my fyp and 2 other courses stuff... and also the badminton session with moo n yz n jy.. sigh, all plans gone...feel so bad for missing out on those things..
but a surprise visit made everything much better! thks!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
fyp fyp fyp
we've completed!!!
the tutor has given her greenlight (i wasn't at the meeting though.. ) and all that we need to do it to print n bind n SUBMIT!
i'm so glad we don't have to be struggling to finish it now, otherwise it will be double stress for me when i'm so sick. i even hv prob writing this entry in proper sentences. that's how blurry my brain is.
must thank my fyp mates for being so enthu towards the last mth dash. we practically meet for 1 whole wk to pia finish a 8au stuff, so it's not too bad la...
tthen we also hv our occasional bu shuang-ness with each other, but the next meeting we'll just forget it le la. we'll crap abt my dreams, ah yong, rabbit & eagle crossing the mt, boss magic, vulgar words which sounds like french words, r/s stuff, gossips and crapz... hahaha!
also must congrats to my projmate who finally got attached to this guy la... they really drag super long until boss n i super sian of their stories le... so bu shuang kuai. hahahaha
so now fyp is completed!
hmmm.... i need some time to rest first n get my body well!

went to nus for a short exchange today.
i'm proud to say that i did not get lost! in fact, i found my way in the shortest time possible.. super proud manz! hahaha!
i must say nus arts canteen is nice la (though they say the food nt nice.. hmmm i think i rather hv nice food but ugly canteen... like cant B, the yong tau foo, the vegetarian, the chinese mix rice, the chicken n duck rice... hahahaha!)
and one question pop up in my head as i was travelling to nus. hv i ever regreted choosing ntu over nus?
hmmm....
hmmm....
nope... i don't think so.
because nus offered me...
ARTS n SOCIAL SCIENCE!
nothing against arts people... (better say this first, so many arts pple ard me... scary)
but it's a 4yrs course n i'm really not willing to be a teacher or join DXO, unlike some pple, should i not able to find a job in future. (i had planned to study geog if i go to arts.) so that's a big risk i will hv to take i think. then also, i will hv to spend 4yrs in sch if i go to nus. at that time, i was really sick of sch n want to get over n be done with studying (abit regret now... i don't want to work!!) and i can save on 1yr's of sch fees n earn 1 more yr of wages!
so yep... i still think my choice to ntu then wasn't a bad one... though i felt a bit cheated by their advertising n all those crappy talks. don't trust them, they are marketing people...
but anw, i must say i'm v happy today!
and in the end, the took-me-3days-to-planned-mini-exchange turned out to be a success!
cheers to my first attempt!
hahahaha!

It’s the time of the sem again...
The mid term syndrome. Or should I call it the after-cny syndrome?
Whatever
The thing is, I’m feeling restless about school, again. All the stuff abt blogging n not receiving enough participations is sian already. Not to mention my fyp which is neither here nor there. It’s not as if we are aiming for A… we just want to finish it n get a B. that’s really enough for us. Then there’s my fave lesson, gd02, and the big proj case that goes with it. We haven’t started on that too.
And then I have to fall sick of all time… NOW??? This makes me even more restless… totally no motivation to do work. But luckily there’s someone who keeps nagging at me. Though it’s irritating, but at least it pushes me forward every now n then to get things done.
That’s good I suppose?
So how did I fall sick?
All thanks to a midnight movie…
It’s times like this when u realize u’re no longer as young and energetic as before. Last time we can don’t slp for the whole nite yet still hv enough energy to go n have breakfast and maybe shop abit before heading home for a nap. Now, 2am only and we want to concuss le… WE ARE OLD ALR!!!!
But nonetheless, the movie is great. The 2nd movie I watch during this long cny holiday- P.S. I Love You. Touching movie, great plot, great actresses n actors and I sort of like the editing. The way the time period jump here n there, from the present to the past then to the present. But as I was too tired, I was abit confused at times, and also failed to recognize which actor is the husband. But that’s only a minor issue. Overall, the movie is great.
Oh and one more thing I like about this movie is the title. P.S. I Love You. How cool. I nv understand why is there a need to write p.s.
I mean, u can easily insert it into the main text rite? Or just end of with I love u or whatever msg u wanted to write, but why is there a need to add a P.S.? though I still don’t totally understand why yet, but I kind of like it now. Sounds sweet.
I would recommend the show to all, even if the marginal utility u get from this movie is not equals to the marginal cost u pay for the ticket. Maybe just don’t go on a weekend lor. Gv $6.50 tic on Tuesday will make this movie worth it. In any case, don’t go for midnight show, unless it’s not the movie u’re interested in, but the show staged off-screen. Hahahaha!
P.S. let me try out this thingy
P.S. I Love You
cool! hahaha!

how techonology affected our life
blogging has never been more tedious and tiring...
i dun mind blogging here, but rather in edventure...
my dear prof decided to be innovative and creative to make his students learn about blogging and also doing up a wiki. (i can understand the purpose of a blog, but a wiki? i'm not gg to set up another wikipedia or wickedpedia...)
so we need to think of ideas to blog abt and also to make those "customers" in our class reads and be interested in our blog. luckily ideas have been flowing out from our team and it's great working with them. i love ang mohs cos they will really encourage u when ur ideas are good and they love to use words like "excellent!" "oh that's a great idea!". they may mean the same as us when we say "ok lor", "i think qt good" but it just feels much much better. that's something we should learn from them.
never hated msn so much before.
not even when they used to sign me out every now n then, cutting off my conversation with friends. but to create misunderstanding over msn is totally erxin n awful. why didn't we stick to phones instead? argh, that's another by-product of technologies. meeting and talking face to face is still the best.
reading and drafting emails have never been better. really enjoyed reading the email. i believe they will still be more coming in in times to come.
to end off... the sch sever really cmi. just as i need to do research, the sever is down.
technology... brings so much joy and so much frustration.

so ytd was indeed a very happy day
cos i finally get to study this mod which i wanted to take 2 sems ago!!!
adm building is really v cool.. it's v cold (cos of the aircon n also cos the walls hv concrete n raw feel) even their lifts are nicer than ours... so ntu pple who haevnt been to adm shld go there for a walk... hmm but i've yet to visit their toilets yet.
will go there next wk n give a review of it.. hahah damn boliao, toilet must also review.
the lesson was ok... many things we've learnt in marketing alr... but now gg into more specific technical stuff on ads... which is kinda interesting.. but the examples the prof gave us are v v old examples... so how relevant will that be in present context, i'm not tat sure le..
then during the lesson, i looked back n saw many students copying notes while boss n i were just sitting there n listening to the prof... hmm dun really understand what they copying.. it i suppose they need to copy cos there's exams, so better to copy everything, u know, just in case. as for me, i dont know abt boss, i go for this lesson becos i want to learn more... so maybe i'm more relaxed ba... grades dont matter to me anymore anyway... it does feels v good when u know u aren't studying for the grades..
to my other friends who are still studying for the grades.. hmm.. jiayou ba! hahahahaha

It's time for a recap for the year 2007!
First of all, I’ve never acknowledge that I’m in year 2007. Sometimes I still think I’m living in 2006.
However, 2007 has been a good year with the occasional downs. It’s filled with tears too, both of joys and sadness.
Let’s start with school.
The 2 best sems in ntu happened to me in 2007, both results wise and also the company. With company like huimin, boss, tsh, ginger and her garlic friends, school is much easier to bear. All the suanings and quarrels made life much more interesting, isn’t it?
I also made a last minute and impulsive decision to join Cerebos competition with fellow Caprios, all thanks to mr tan sc initiative. Though we didn’t win (our 3k. aww~~~) but we got what we set out to achieve, something to write in our resume! Hahahaha! Of course we also wanted the experience n those cliché reasons that u can think so, but the resume reason is also impt mah, rite? It’s been crazy working with the 2 of them. Meet up soon!
Ok let’s don’t forget njcoaa. It’s been a busy year having to work on the syf, concert, alumnite and also the newsletter. Through these, I learnt so much more about myself through working with the others. I must really thank the people who stood by me during these difficult times. Although u all have tight schedule too, u all still spare time to help me and njco. Really really a big thank you for all of u. MUACKS!
Oh 2007 is a special year too cause that’s when most of my friends, including me, turn 21! So being a January baby, I started the ball rolling with a super big pinkie birthday party. Too bad boss din go, otherwise he must be super happy to find so many fellow pinkies. Well, I think so far mine is still the biggest party. I just have a crazy idea to want a party plus gathering for all of my friends. Then it’s party after party after party…
Went to Genting twice! Woohoo! Damn boliao to go there twice but the feel is just different when u go with different people.
Then there’s my health, which acc to mr goh, is super kua zhang cos I can be sick so frequently. Haiz, I also don’t wish to. Ok my new year resolution is to stay healthy k!
Family gatherings are more frequent with the chalets, birthday celebrations and also out of the blue get togethers. So happy! Those little chipmunks will make u either love them very much or hate them v much. But most of the time I just love them too much. Hahaha!
Oh I nearly forgot about my attachment. Got to know a few cute aunties who always talk to me about ahem.. hahaha friendly people and glad to know grace (the chio bu always got everyone staring at her when I go out with her) whom I still keep in touch with. Happy to know that she has found someone to spend the rest of her life with.
There’s also a few important people who made 2007 so much pleasant for me.
Boy boy and ah bi!
He loves me v much!!! Always say he loves me. Hahaha! But he also always scolds me sob sob. Then there’s ah bi who always listen to me talk crap and goes shopping with me (not to mention sponsoring me for many things muahahaha!)
Yongxin, yanzhen and wanying
We are the RVSN! Hahaha! It’s always nice to know that there’s a group of gal friends who will listen to all your complaints abt sch n fren n also share gossips! But we don’t meet up often as a group, do we? Haiz no choice la, there’s changes le mah hor.
Thks yx for letting me have a taste of hall life in the first half of the year. Also thks for ur matchmaking effort ah, xin ku le! So much to say, but yi qie jing zai bu yan zhong.
Thks yz for all the crapping sessions. ok not all are crap but enjoyable! U always make my day leh! Must remember to jiayou and also remember the question we will ask each other when the time is ripe wor.
Thks wy for the late night chats and the occasional emo topics, it does gives me new perspective to certain issues, but I’m a stubborn girl. U must jiayou too! Btw, where’s my bdae present!!!!
Moomoo
Ah dear ah, thks for listening to me and share my joys and tears. Same to u, so much to say yet yi qie jing zai bu yan zhong. Love u!
S01
I think we have a v weird r/s. we seem to have gatherings ever so often (sometimes 3 times in a week!) but the things we know about each other is very limited isn’t it? But it doesn’t really matter that we don’t know each other well, it’s more impt to know that this group of friends will be with you when u need them. And that’s more than sufficient. Thanks guys!
Oh yar, special thanks to mr zhuo (mr goh don’t be jealous k) cos he has been a wonderful listener to me during this 1yr. really glad to have u around to talk to. But I must say sorry to u too for my occasional bad temper. Occasional only la hor. Next year must still continue to listen to me k. in return I wish u all the best in pursuing your dean’s list wish. U can do it when u want it bad enough. Jiayou! As for mr goh, hope u get a life! hahahaa
Nick!
Thanks for entertaining me whenever I don’t feel happy, scolding me when I do stupid stuff and nag at me when I sleep late (which is basically every night) remember to work hard and give me a sup card soon k. nono make it 3 sup cards, hahaha!
Looney!
always giving me the *pats* when i'm depressed or when i deserve one after hardwork. hahaha still havent been able to go essential brews with u but heard tat u went with the others on ur bdae, so u shld be happy le ba! good luck for ur fyp wor! and dont me men1 men1 de la... and one more thing, don't say u're men shuai! erxin.. hahaha!
Also, I would like to say a very very big thank you to mh. u helped me in many ways and I’m really grateful for ur help. Thanks for being there for me when I felt so tired and frustrated when things didn’t go my way. You made me believe in what I am doing. Also, you made my wish to visit to jewel box come true (finally after I made so much noise abt it), it’s really a v beautiful place. I can only say, thank you!
Also, I am glad to know many new friends this year. Looney, Gab the blackie, mingteck the oldies grp member, huan huan though he din recognise me when i said hi to him, wencong and tiong beng who are can really compete with me for the lamest award, esp wc, ginger's garlic bf and the black horse and yoga man and of cos the many new frens i made in ntu... cant remember who are the ones i only start to know this year... it seems like i know them for v v long le.. hahaha! well, they made my 2007 fulfilling too!
I hope I didn’t miss out on anything impt for 2007.
My wish for 2008: able to let go of the things we need to let go and grip tight of the things we don’t want to lose.
If we are able to do that, we will be happier.
Next up: 2008! Wonder what it has in store for all of us. Hmm…

SH101 - learn to shop like a tai tai
HT101 - learn to have high tea like a tai tai
DR101 - how to dress like a tai tai
maybe i can be the instructor since many pple commented tat i look like one (but really i'm not... i just look like but i don't lead a tai tai life at all!!! i doubt i can ever lead one of those life.. too boring~~)

sick.
AGAIN.
i seriously need to reorganise the way i lead my life.
sleeping late n waking up early is not the way.
or maybe i've been thinking too much that it has hurt my internal organs?
思伤脾
i know i mention this everytime i'm sick, but i would always hope to hv someone to fuss over me... help me to measure my temperature, remind me to take med n stuff... somehow, these actions seem to provide more warmth to this sick person.
oh no.. this fri is suppose to be oldies ktv session... how how???
i think have to change date le.. i can't sing with this sore throat.
can we? can we?

The Sonnet Deliberate Gentle Love Dreamer (DGLD) Romantic, hopeful, and composed. You are the Sonnet. Get it? Composed? Sonnets want Love and have high ideals about it. They're conscientious people, caring & careful. You yourself have deep convictions, and you devote a lot of thought to romance and what it should be. This will frighten away most potential mates, but that's okay, because you're very choosy with your affections anyway. You'd absolutely refuse to date someone dumber than you, for instance. Lovers who share your idealized perspective, or who are at least willing to totally throw themselves into a relationship, will be very, very happy with you. And you with them. You're already selfless and compassionate, and with the right partner, there's no doubt you can be sensual, even adventurously so. You probably have lots of female friends, and they have a special soft spot for you. Babies do, too, at the tippy-top of their baby skulls. Your exact female opposite: Genghis Khunt  Random Brutal Sex Master Always avoid: The 5-Night Stand (DBSM), The False Messiah (DBLM), The Hornivore (RBSM), The Last Man on Earth (RBSD) Consider: The Loverboy (RGLM) |
