Babies are the best :3 I'm not 100% sure how old I was, some of the pictures I was like 6 months old and some I was a couple of years! The pictures don't have dates on them, so I'm not exactly sure. Hahaha you don't have to be good at swimming! A lot of people aren't, I've just been on swimteams since I was 8. And well, I have a lot of fights with my dad because we do NOT get along at all, but we can ignore those fights at family parties so they're really fun! I'm going to make a point of responding quicker now for sure! I don't have any major plans for the summer, just relaxing stuff! What about you?

I've been done with school for a whole thankfully, but still really busy! A combination of playing a ton on my xbox, going out drinking since I just turned 21, hanging out with people, and babysitting 4 days a week! I've always just really loved France, I want to see Paris but not just that city, I want to see all of France! And I'd like to improve my French as well. I need to buy a laptop this summer, but everything I don't spend on a laptop, I'm saving for traveling! It's possible I'll be able to go to Europe this winter if I'm really lucky. Yep! I'm not going into the auto industry, but the more diverse a group of engineers is, the better the solutions they come up with will be! I like wearing dresses and skirts, so that's one good thing about the summer. But I prefer sweaters and scarves and boots! Haha yep, I can touch hair too! Someday I will learn how to braid.

Babies and kids in general are pretty awesome, but big cheeks makes them even more awesome! I just found some pretty funny pictures of me when I was little, I uploaded them on dropbox! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bhfwvtb2i56mb0a/AduqD5PHRV Yeah, 2 and a half hours can be reall exhausting, and I always take a break of a few months after each season so I can rest. Like at the moment I'm not swimming but I already am missing my team! Flirting honestly can be pretty much anything, it's really just talking to someone and showing interest in them in some way, even if it's awkward! I can be pessimistic about some things, but being an optimist is a good thing so I always try to see the glass as half full! Most people have some problems with their family, and while my aunts and uncles occasionally have disagreements, it's not very often thankfully. So, how have you been recently? Long time no talk!

Oh my gosh! I am so sorry that it has been SO long since I've been on! I've been ridiculously busy and I was pretty much always distracted, but it's summer now so I'm back! I'd love to go to Germany, but France is my #1 choice! I'm not fluent in French, but I do speak a little bit of it and I'd like to get better! More women in general should do engineering, most engineering schools are 85% men, 15% women! I got some really good scholarships for next year so I'm excited! Right now I'm already missing the winter! I don't like hot weather and it's already pretty warm outside. I'm a few episodes behind on the current season of Game of Thrones but I still love the show lots and lots! I like my hair down the best but sometimes it's easier to handle in a ponytail and I really love when my hair is braided! I can't braid though, so I have to have other people do it (which is okay because I love when people touch my hair hahaha).

And hmm, family parties.. well, there are usually 30-40 people there, depending on who is in town. There's a lot of food and alcohol, and everyone who's a teenager or older will drink and talk and laugh. (one of my cousins who is 15 is the youngest who drinks alcohol there) We play a lot of board games which can be really funny and crazy. And we never fight! We don't all get along about everything but we put aside our differences for parties and enjoy our time together. So my family of 30+ people gets along better than most families of only like 10!

There are a lot of things like that in other parts of the world though, I know a lot of things are only available in Europe or parts of Asia! So it just depends. I've tried most sports out there and swimming was the only one that stuck, and it's also a lot harder than a lot of other sports. We usually swim nonstop for 2 and a half hours, but it's still fun. Well women might often be a little better than men at taking care of babies, but I know a lot of men who are really good at it too! I don't think your ability at that is based on gender but on your temperament - usually the more relaxed you are, the more you like kids. Flirting classes would definitely be popular, maybe some day there will be some! I'd take that class haha. Well I like to be an optimist and I try to see good in as much as I can, it's usually there (but not always).

France is my main goal for engineering, they have very good engineering schools! I'm not very interested in fashion myself, I prefer math, literature, and science. I'm most likely going to go into chemical engineering, so I'll have to do a LOT of physics and calculus. I don't use celsius on a daily basis, only in school. We had a few mornings that were -35C which was absolutely ridiculous, but it's been a bit nicer this weekend. I love movies and I've seen a lot of movies that people haven't heard of! Game of Thrones is a really good show, I definitely recommend it. Haha well maybe it's not possible to have too much hair, but having a lot of hair makes it hard to put my hair up! My parents took a lot of pictures and videos when I was a baby so I have a lot to look through. I've always had big cheeks! And I didn't have as much hair as now but I still had a lot when I was a baby. If I was a guy and I had to shave, I'd be lazy about it too! I'm already lazy about shaving my legs haha.

Maybe someday Skyline will expand but I don't know, they like being a smaller local business. Swimming is the only sport I do haha, I'll play basketball and volleyball for fun but I'm not good at them, I have no coordination! Haha well I don't know if I'd call it a champion's league, but it is fun to wrestle. I like kids, they're easy to spend time with and they're so cute. Plus babysitting makes me a lot of money! Yeah I don't think there's a flirting class haha, you just have to wing it and hope for the best. If you seem genuine then a girl won't mind it you're awkward, and awkward can be really cute sometimes. Honesty can also be good if done in the right way! Matt Damon definitely is a good actor, and I actually have a cousin that looks a lot like him haha, we always joke around with him at family parties.

Yep I've been busy with annoying college stuff too, I finally decided on what I want to do with my life and so I've been applying to the engineering school in my university. It's exciting! I'm hoping that when I'm an engineering student I can co-op in Europe for a semester. Sometimes in science we will see Fahrenheit because it's what we're used to, but in every higher level science class I've taken we use celsius, it's a lot more practical. I just stayed inside those days, it was way too cold! I don't really know what my favorite movies are. I watched Garden State, a few episodes of Game of Thrones, The Intouchables, and Upstream Color. I don't do very much to take care of my hair, I just wash it and condition it. I don't straighten it or anything. Sometimes I'll put it in a ponytail or pull it half back, and I love when it's braided but I can't braid my hair, I have too much hair :( Hugs definitely are comforting! And I have several albums of baby pictures, they're so much fun.

Yeah Skyline does ship their food, but that wouldn’t taste as good as actually going to the restaurant. And well, I’m pretty strong from swimteam plus wrestling isn’t all about strength, you have to know good techniques which I’ve learned from wrestling with family and friends! My brother plays a lot of sports though and he will be strong when he gets older. Thankfully I don’t babysit any kids who need a diaper change, I watch a number of kids and they’re all so easy! (for girls, we do puzzles or makeovers or games or movies; for boys, we play video games or puzzles or playing outside or movies) Flirting is tricky, and a lot of it is just luck. There aren’t really any ways to get better at it besides practice! I really like Matt Damon which is why I prefer Jason Bourne a little more, but they’re both enjoyable movies!

It is SO COLD here. Right now it is -34 degrees Celsius with the windchill (I don’t use Celsius haha, but I figured you do and it would be easier to understand since only America uses Fahrenheit) which is too cold even for me. I went outside once to take my dog out to go to the bathroom, and five minutes later I couldn’t even bend my fingers. (but I did this really cool thing where I boiled water and went outside and threw it, and it turned into a really cool thick fog!) I spent all day cuddling with my dog and watching a ton of movies! Haha nope I’ve never dyed my hair any crazy colors. Well, a lot of the Asians I know have hair like silk! But it just depends on the person, not just their race. The more you take care of your skin and hair the better it will be! Haha Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory? That’s a funny show!

Oh gosh I just realized there's a shout you left me that I didn't see! There was one in between the two shouts so I must have missed it. I'll reply to that too. Okay so. Skyline Chili is very good, but they're only in the Cincinnati area! A lot of people get it shipped to where they live. I have to fight off my little brother pretty much every day because he is insane, so I'm pretty good at wrestling with kids haha (and it comes in handy when babysitting!). And hmmm, flirting.. that really just depends! I'm usually pretty shy so I'll maybe smile at a guy and try to find a reason to talk to him, but I don't flirt a lot unless I know he's interested. If you see a girl watching you in a restaurant or a store for example, there's a chance she's interested. Or she might be spacing out and happen to be looking in your direction haha. Jason Bourne is an American, yep! I like him more than James Bond (although I love both sets of movies)

Oh wow it would be so annoying to not have power! We rarely lose power here, even in a big storm. Right now there's a winter storm and it's really cold, -4 degrees at the moment (fahrenheit). It would be especially bad to be without power when it's cold! Need lots of blankets and sweaters. Well I have dyed my hair before but it's been like this for a while. The lighting in my room is just really weird. Yeah I usually avoid agressive things, but it depends on my mood. I'm flattered that you compare me to sunshine! And that's true, hair is probably more varied in America than in Asia. Asians have such pretty hair, it's always so soft. When I'm in a car I don't like to talk, it's not that I'm bored with the person driving but I like to relax when I'm sitting in a car. It definitely is soothing. My holidays were really nice, good time with family! And haha, I like cold weather but I like hugs too!

Happy new year ! :)

I'm so sorry it has been so long since I've responded! I've been really really busy and haven't had the time it takes to respond to shouts on here. But now the busy time is over and I've got more free time to spend on the computer! Finals are what really took up my time. I had to study so much that I gave up and ended up hibernating: http://i.imgur.com/rWgm5TV.jpg?1 Anyways. I appreciate you deciding to not turn me into a vampire! I like eating food and sleeping in a bed haha. And ahh okay, yep those are my eyelashes! I would never wear fake eyelashes. You can't see my eyelashes that well in that picture though because I took it with the sunlight on my face! Hahaha my hair isn't rainbow coloreed, but most people's hair has a few different shades in it! I don't like any heavy rock music, I just think the sound of rain can be soothing. As long as the thunder isn't too loud! Also I hope your holidays were good! I love Christmas time.

I'll drink mulled wine - that's the best for me in winter time :)

As if I can afford to travel anywhere. I have to save money for school and I have to pay bills.

Well it's cold here too. I want summer - NOW.

Well actually I don't have enough room to have a tree. So I'm trying to figure out how to decorate the place. Oooo that's great. What's it like in Canada?

I've been great :). Enjoying the weekend, getting ready for Christmas you know having fun :). And you?

And you are _____ from ____ :D haha. All I remember is that I kept saying that you are a JB fan :D

Hi, remember me? :D ....

Hahaha well I don't think I'd ever want to be immortal because then I'd have to watch everyone I know die, and that would be depressing! But being immortal could also be really cool. Well you're a guy, I wouldn't expect you to know much about makeup, especially costume makeup. And the eyelashes with the facepaint are not my real eyelashes haha, I painted those on. My eyelashes are long but not to that extent! Umm, just brush your teeth twice a day, that's all I do! I don't even floss! Hmm, I don't really know how I'd describe my ideal prince honestly.. It varies and changes based on who the guy is, so I'm not sure! My hair is a reddish brownish blonde color, but mostly brown. Oh don't feel bad, I don't mind storms, they're nice to listen to but scary. We've had sunshine the past couple days! And that's very sweet of you, but I don't know if I'd say I'm sunshine haha.

Well, I haven't traveled much, but even just in my city there are many types of restaurants so I've tried a decent amount. My city doesn't really have any food that we are known for, except we have Skyline Chili which is really good, and a lot of people in other states get that shipped to them since it's only here! But I wouldn't say it's famous since it's only known in some parts of the country. Bahahaha you're so right, I doubt he'd feel a punch at all! Well, I can be very confident and I don't have any problem talking and flirting a little with guys, but I'm usually too afraid to tell guys that I like them! Depends on who they are. It would be nice to have admirers! Oh my gosh I LOVE Zooey Deschanel so much. She's adorable. Sweaters can be really itchy but I don't care because they're cute! And I mean some Americans are blonde with blue eyes, but America is so diverse that you'll find any type of person here. I like that, diversity is a really good thing.

Hahaha oh no! I'll have to run away, I don't really want to have my blood sucked, although I'm flattered that you'd choose me as your first victim. Well the makeup I used was really cheap stuff from the costume store hahaha, it wasn't anything special, but it mean my face gets a little oily throughout the day so I was expecting it to run eventually, but it's still frustrating! I'm sure the tooth fairy was very mad at me, although I always still take good care of my teeth (I've never had a cavity!). And what people like is all about personal preference, everyone likes different things! I like red hair on girls a lot and I wish I had it, it's so pretty, but I don't like it on guys as much. Personality is definitely the most important. Yep everything went well, all safe! The sirens went off and me and my family went into the basement, but no tornado.

I don't know much about Korean food, but it's odd that they wouldn't have a ton of seafood in it! That's bizarre, and yep the Japanese definitely do like their seafood. Hahaha this is true, I'm sure many people would be very grateful to me for punching him! But still, he'd probably get really mad at me. Who cares though, he deserves a good beating! Well I don't really know if I have admirers or not, I don't have the courage to talk to guys who I think are attractive and I have a feeling a lot of guys are the same way! Awkward definitely can be cute if done in the right way, you just have to be careful with how you do it. Well I usually wear blue jeans, and I have a blue sweater that I love! And hmm, I guess you're right, although King Arthur and his sword is a little dramatic. You're not weird for watching anything! Just watch whatever makes you happy, I stopped caring about what people think about things like that a long time ago and I'm a lot happier!

I personally think eggnog is good, but not everyone does. It's mostly just a cinnamon-y tasting drink, similar to milk with cinnamon. I'd say buy it and see if you like it before trying to make it! And I think it has been in movies in the winter, it's a snuggly drink! Haha well nobody has ever told me that I look yummy before, but feel free to if you want! Well I'm glad you liked the makeup! By the end of the day the makeup was running a bit which made me sad since I spent so much time on it. Hahaha well I didn't trick or treat but the day after Halloween I went to the store and bought a bag of Reese's for $2 since the candy was on sale, so I still had a decent amount of candy! I think people look good with whatever skin color is natural for them and with a bit of a tan from being outside in the summer, but nothing fake. I love hot chocolate, I drink a lot of that in the winter! Tonight I'm cuddling on the couch with my puppy, the Midwest is getting some really bad storms!

I've been to a few Korean restaurants and it was really good! Just different from most other Asian-style food but in a good way! I love sushi too, it's one of my favorite things! Hahaha Kim Jong-un is not somebody I ever want to meet, I'd probably end up punching him and he'd have me shot! Nice and honest are both really good things, just be them in the right situations. People really appreciate it when people are nice! I try not to look at my inner self much either, I don't always like what I see there. Ah yes the glass thing is just the little shelter at bus stops for rainy days. And that sounds really nice of you letting her first, even if it was a little awkward! Awkward can be really cute. Hahaha I've never dressed up like a smurf before but I like blue so it would work, and it would be fun indeed! Haha I wear black but not much, just sometimes. It's not a very happy color but it can be pretty! Well thanks! I just like grey because it's simple and easy to put in outfits.

The best thing is turning a frustrating situation into one where you can all smile and laugh about it! And haha no, coffee isn't as good as perfume, but it's still yummy! And the first time I did the makeup to practice, it did take about two hours because I didn't know what I was doing, but thankfully I got it down and was able to do it somewhat quickly the second time! It was a lot of fun! I actually didn't trick or treat because I had a test to study for, ugh, but me and some friends got lunch earlier in the day dressed up like that. I personally don't like very tan skin. In the summer it looks nice because you're out in the sun and it's just one of the things that comes from having a fun summer. But I don't go tanning and I prefer more pale skin! Oh I agree, the girls made a bad choice, but the people who threatened them were just as bad as the girls. Haha well, I'm just always sleepy, so no matter what I take I'm still tired!

Maybe! It might be different from Chinese food in Canada, I'm not sure. I think that's a good quality, some people try to hide the truth or are afraid to say what they're feeling, but it's a really good thing to tell people what you think about them. Honesty is a good thing, as long as you're not mean to people! I don't really know how I view myself to be honest, it changes day by day! Sometimes I'm okay with how I look, sometimes I'm not. It's not THAT important to me, I mean it is a little, but I think it's more important to have a good personality. And hmm, some people just aren't very friendly because they're shy. Blue is my favorite color too! Blue and grey are the two colors I wear the most., although there aren't any colors I don't like. (except I don't wear much purple, it doesn't always look good on me) Haha I'm not actually sure if people see green when they're high. And yeah, fast food is convenient but it can be really overwhelming, plus it's not usually that healthy!

Hahaha, well that sounds like quite an funny experience! I've never spilled it in public, only when I'm rushing out of the door in the morning and I stumble and spill it, it's frustrating! But I probably wouldn't mind either if someone did that, I'd probably just laugh. And I don't mind smelling like coffee because I think it smells amazing! Yep, I spent about an hour in the morning painting my face like that, it was really frustrating! I didn't instagram a better picture of it, but this is basically what it looked like: http://i.imgur.com/TQ7kJmG.jpg?1 That was the first layer of paint, so the final product looked different and more smooth, but yeah it took a while! It was really fun though. Oh god I know, I saw those costumes. There's nothing wrong with being a little offensive, I think people are offended by things way too easily nowadays, but things like that are too too much. And yep, I've been doing well, how have you been doing?

I'd imagine a lot of people don't like Chinese food, most Americans are just brainwashed and we love it haha. And I don't ever think you're lying about anything when you say you think I'm pretty or any of that! Everyone is their own harshest critic, so it's normal for people to view themselves differently from how everyone else does. I wouldn't take it personally if she didn't say hi to you when you saw her! I don't know the specifics, but there's a good chance she was just thinking and not paying attention to anything else. Sometimes I am and people will say hi to me and I won't even notice until they've walked by! I'm not ignoring them, I'm just oblivious! I'm easily amused by small things as well! Especially when I'm in a good mood. Ah okay, yeah there are a lot of restaurant chains here that aren't doing very well either. People don't always eat out as much nowadays because it can be expensive, even just fast food.

Hello! Enjoy the weekend and have fun ;;)) , ::)))

A good design for coffee cups definitely is important! Sometimes to-go cups are really flimsy and I've had hot coffee spill on me numerous times, which is not fun. McDonald's definitely is more widespread than Starbucks, although it seems that Starbucks are popping up more and more. I'm overloaded with work, but I was still able to go to a couple of parties this weekend, and on Halloween I did my makeup up like a Picasso painting! You don't need to be certain about what you believe religiously! Don't ever let people pressure you into believing one thing or another, believe what you want to whenever it feels comfortable. Yep, our time changed over the weekend! And I've seen a couple of episodes of Doctor Who and I like it, but I haven't seen much. I know a lot of people who are really obsessed though.

Well, Chinese food is yummy, cheap and quick! I'd imagine the more authentic Chinese food is a lot like Vietnamese food, but the Americanized Chinese food is a lot different from the authentic! Haha well you are very sweet indeed! Although I don't usually think of myself as beautiful! And don't worry that you'll do something stupid or anything like that. I know a lot of guys are afraid of that but it's not a big deal, most girls are flattered by that and a lot of us get nervous talking to guys too! I know I sometimes do! There's nothing at all wrong with being nervous or awkward around people. I do know where the matchboxes are from, it's so cool, a lot of them have addresses all over China and even a few in Japan. And don't worry, every country has some different restaurants and some similar restaurants, and it's hard to know what country has what restaurants! And actually, I looked it up and it seems that there are some Tim Horton's in America, just not in my city.

I think you will enjoy it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKEfwrflB98 ;)

Oh yum! I like some of McDonald's coffee, and I drink coffee from home every day, but if it's free there I might get some. Starbucks is delicious, but definitely not cheap. I like frappuccinos but I like hot coffee the best, lattes are my favorite. I'm sure there will be some pictures of the costumes! I still don't know what I'm doing though, I've been doing a lot this weekend so I haven't been thinking about the costume. Well I'm mostly Catholic because that's how I grew up, but the church I go to is.. well, it's kind of hard to explain, but it's a more modern church where things are really open minded and it's not just straight up Catholic or Christian, it's more just that we all believe in God. I'm really open minded about religion and most of my friends are atheists, which is totally fine. People can believe whatever they want to as long as they don't try to change my beliefs!

Well haha yeah, I'm afraid that when I have to rely on myself for food I'll sometimes get lazy and end up ordering Chinese food or pizza more than I should! Definitely look for a thrift shop if you need something cheap. But a lot of the stuff there is really ugly, you have to look! Well, it wasn't that our country was in total anarchy or anything, our lives were pretty much exactly the same. Laws were still enforced and all of that. The only changes really were that many people who worked for the government lost their jobs and couldn't pay their bills, a few social services were cut off, and the national parks were closed. My life personally wasn't affected at all. I've never collected many things, but my dad gave me his big collection of match boxes from China so I have a tin of about 50 really cool match boxes in my room. Ohhhh okay, I wasn't sure which country you were talking about! Because I know many countries have McDonald's. And I've never heard of Tim Hortons before.

And well, the Canadians I've met are pretty similar to us, just a few differences but nothing major. Haha well, I was going to do a costume relating to Breaking Bad, but now I think I'm doing a group thing with a few friends where we all dress up as a famous painting since we're all kind of art history nerds. I don't know what painting I'm doing though, although Lichtenstein would be the most fun. Superpumpkin does have superpowers! I just don't know what they are haha. And I doubt there's a single American who doesn't love Thanksgiving!

If I had a real job I'd be more tempted to buy more things, but my mom would probably keep me in check too so I don't spend everything. And I know when I move out and live on my own groceries will probably be like $20 something at the cheapest for me, which will be stressful but exciting at the same time. Thrift shops are pretty popular in most places, they're a lot of fun and you can find really cute clothes there! Hahaha right, that government shutdown was complete bullshit. Congratulations, Congress, you just got 99% of the American population to hate you! That majorly pissed me off, but at least for now it's over. That's so strange that the money looks that similar! I'd imagine a lot of people make similar mistakes and pay the wrong amount when they aren't paying attention! Chai tea definitely is strong, but it's cozy and I like it since it's really relaxing. Wait, there aren't McDonald's there? That's odd! But Starbucks is yummy.

Thanks for the shout, hope you're having a great week :)

Thanks for dropping by,and one flag retue, greetings Tom .

I was thinking of dressing up like Heisenberg from Breaking Bad this Halloween, but I'm not sure yet. I'll probably figure it out this weekend. I could just be Superpumpkin hahaa, it would work since I'm known as Pumpkin to a couple friends. Scarlett Johansson definitely is really pretty, but I couldn't pull that costume! Thanksgiving is just a lot of autumn-y food like turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, corn, squash, pumpkin pie, stuff like that. Very yummy.

Well I'm too poor to spend a lot of money on clothes for myself, I'll usually get the expensive ones for Christmas as presents. I love buying clothes but I can't always afford it. I occasionally go grocery shopping with my mom and it is ridiculously expensive, for my family of five people it's usually $150+ per week. There might be Goodwills there, or just any kind of used/vintage clothing store. Those are really fun! Haha, nope, in the US we don't have anything like dukes or duchesses, or any kind of royalty like that, just different levels of politicians. I do like green tea although it's not my favorite, chai is definitely my favorite. Peanut butter is very yummy! But definitely sticky. I know Canada and the US are similar in a lot of ways, but things like phrases can vary greatly based on where you live.

Thanks for dropping by,have a nice day, greetings Tom : )))

Nice music

Oh gosh, well, I don't usually eat when I'm sad, but I have a huge appetite and I normally eat a LOT. I have basically a neverending appetite. Especially with things like bacon and chocolate. I do have a sweet tooth, although some things are too sweet for me. It depends on my mood. Haha is "butterflies in your stomach" not a common phrase there? People here use it for all sorts of things, but I guess phrases there would be a lot different than here! I just want school to be over so I can be done with tests! And oh yes, I'm very excited for Thanksgiving, but also for Halloween! I want to dress up and go trick or treating with a few friends this year! :)

Well I generally spend a lot on sweaters and sometimes I'll end up buying ones for $70 or more when I fall in love with them, but it's so nice when I can find a cheap one. Goodwill is where you get used clothes, so you never know what you'll find. I'm so excited for snow, I plan on building a castle this year and having an epic snowball war with a few people. And sledding of course! Haha, maybe I'll be like the snow princess or something. I'm okay with not being good at art because I can still greatly appreciate it, and there are other things I'm good at so it's not a big deal. Well, if tea helps to prevent cancer then I should be good, because I drink several cups a day! I don't have cancer though, so I don't need to cure it (hopefully.. don't wanna jinx it).

Thank you! A nice Sunday for you! :)

hi :)
