Hey.. most of my friends from school and college keep telling me how I should chuck my technical background and become a psychiatrist. Well, i know most of them are going overboard with it... yet i think i do come up with fairly decent third-party views to situations where i can empathize with those involved. And the perspective of a rational third party can be helpful on most occasions.

I've lived most of my life so far in the cosmopolitan metros of the country... known so many people and places, I can barely remember names(I know, that sucks.. but i'm good with faces!)

Have been going steady for 2 years with college sweetheart(been in love with him for almost 5 years now ^_^) We're long-distance and it's so tough sometimes but we manage and make it work despite the odds.

I love reading Sci-fi, watching flicks on dvds(cant sit thru entire movies in the theaters), traveling, and i cannot live without the music i love. He hates reading any kinda stuff('cept for letters from me, thank God), laughs thru slap-stick comedies that i find torturous(he, btw, totally hates all the 'Arty' stuff i like), and the only music he'll listen to is some of what i play( to crib about it later!)

So much about me... will update if i can remember something i'd like to tell. So long :)

Anyone else turned off by the way some guys kiss?

A.   27 June 2008: hi it's not like you're the only one who's had a bad kissing experience... happens to lots of women (and men). Bad breath, too much saliva, too much tongue... any of these things and more could turn one off. I personally find too much tongue slig... (read in full...)

A.   27 June 2008: My advice to you - Ignore the brats. You haven't done anything for them to be so nasty towards you. But again, the more you retaliate, the more stubborn and resistant they'd get. I wonder why your bf lets them pick on him, but maybe it's a family t... (read in full...)

A.   27 June 2008: Hey Why don't you just write your files on a DVD or CD? In case you don't hav a DVD/CD drive, the easiest is to get a pen drive or memory card, and do the transfer. Emails wouldn't work if the files are very large in size. Other options for ... (read in full...)
