| I've only been to one wedding and it was a very alternative one, on a farm. I liked it, since it was like a casual family gathering and some of my nicest relatives that I rarely ever get to meet were present. |

I'm not watching it though.A couple years ago there used to be porn movies right after my favourite crime show so I saw a few scenes... it's just not my thing. The stories were lame and even though there is a considerable amount of women watchi... |

| 1. How do you motivate yourself to get things done (homework, chores, exercise, etc.)? I too felt extremely awkward being in class without having my homework done properly, so that's what eventually got me to do it. However, I have motivation-problems... and mainly did my homework in other classes s... |

I found a lot of advice on flirting and approaching girld for guys, but I think there's a different strategy applying for girls. There are some guys I met who might have been interested in getting to know me at first... |

I don't know, different, beautiful, nicer. I'm not even sure why, but sometimes I feel there more at home than I do in my act... |

| They can be introverted, shy or even have social anxiety, too. Some of them probably are - there have been people in my school claiming they were oh-so-intrioverted but still they were always talking, joking and not even minding the ones around them. But of course NTs can have serious trouble social... |

| I like high heels but I can't walk in them well and they hurt my feet quickly. I don't understand why people would wear them everyday, since it can actually cause permanent damage, but I feel a lot better wearing higher shoes when I'm in a dress, for example. It stretched the body shape a little and... |

I was being told that they would teach us to write but I never concluded that it rea... |

If I ever have a child it's totally getting the steelebook version. :) And "Salt". It's actually nothing ... |

I was always kept more to myself. In other ways... I still don't have a boyfriend and no clue how to f... |
