To get to know eachother...

[Charean]

*bump*

[250]

thank you all very much for the kindly responds.
Ladyzekke, again, I appreciate your support. (I know I am unique, so don't mention it, and stop humiliate me! ) actually, thanks.

Bilqis, your poem is indeed heart-touching. I am the solution to myself, and I hold the key to my problem... wait, one second thought, I am the solution to everyone, and I can make the world a better place by keep living my life... lol

Charean, I wanted to say so much to you, but I wanted too much to say them. so in short, thanks for the bumping. thanks for your great advice

thank you all very much for sharing. I know that life can be a b..... sometimes, but I always remember someone once told me "Leo, when you get older, and look back your life, you will discover that the hardship you went through was really not a big deal. When you were going through troubles, the trouble looked so very big and scary. But once you went through, and you see the trouble itself for what it was, you know it was nothing then." I will keep in mind about those precious words (and yours as well) to myself, and live on. thanks.

Bumping this ancient thread because I thought it might help everybody get to know eachother better and gain some understanding of eachother. The questions are a bit silly at times, but that shouldn't be a problem.

NB: a lot of the old time members should have posted in this one already...

Edit: OMFG... just read Donut's replies...
