On my end its going well. I iced skate to work this morning :lol:

When I was in Montréal going to secondary school, my school was atop a hill, sort of, so the street leading to it from the subway station was at a slope. In the winter it could get icy (even on the sidewalk), and you can imagine how it is to walk up or down an icy road! (Down was, in a way, easier, lol.)

So true!

Honestly. I was like panda until i settled down with Mayra. It worked all the time. Problem was that it was my actual personality then Not to the point where people hated me just enough to entice the opposite sex.

Panda displays this side on the outside but it's not his true personality. He likes it that he gets girls' attention, but when it comes to actually making a move, he's all shy and reluctant, lol.

There's a funny story. At one of my parties, a female friend of mine met Panda for the first time. Later she came to me and asked bluntly, "Hey, is [your friend] a jackass?" :lol:

Panda and I both agreed that she probably wanted him, lol.

That looks really good Steven a bit too raw for me though. Martin will wake up in 9 minutes. Always at 12pm eastern time :)

monk3y wrote in post #11762940 (external link)
haha if only she would allow it, I would have done lots of photoshoot by now.. and yeah some would have been G&N Materials :lol:

:lol:

That event looks good. Its for 8 hours and they provide all the lighting and 20+ models. It will cost around 275.

but then again, 20 models? wow!!! that's gotta be fun.

You're naked all the time, you're sometimes on a leash, you pee on trees and water hydrants and poop on your neighbor's lawn, and you try to shag just about everything you see? ;):p:lol:

Sea urchin has to be fresh and has to be prepared properly to taste good. I like it, but I know many people don't.

it was pretty good... I was actually a bit surprised by the taste.. it looks too mushy at first but when I sipped it...the texture was really ok and it taste good. I dunno what preparation they did, but I assume they just cracked the sea urchin open and served it on a cucumber :lol:

that's what I heard... he charges $600 in the US as well... he is pretty popular here though...named by Scott Kelby as top 5 photogs of 2009 I think...lots of photos used in Unicef as well.

he only charged about P10,000 ($200) here... I thought it was already very expensive until I saw how much he charges overseas haha

Going down that hill might have been like a bodsled team going full speed! :lol:

:lol: Thats where me and him differ. I was never shy about making a move. It was actually fun for me to play the serious patience game. They usually would get crazy and make the move for me :lol:

On second thought, no. Don't show us. :lol:

It's how they crack it open and scoop the flesh out. It's easy to mess it up. Where the urchin came from and how fresh it is, like I said before, also play in the texture and flavor.

On the good hand, there was this pizza place down the bottom where they served humongous slices for one dollar each, any type from simple pepperoni only to supreme. It was authentic New York style I guess, the kind you fold and eat on the go. It was really warming to have on cold winter days after school, especially if we slipped on ice to slide down there. :lol::D

Well, what I meant was that he gets asked out, but more often than not turns them down. He's picky and shy. But he doesn't need to make the slightest effort to get a girl to ask him out. That's the more cocky exterior side of him, but I don't know why he doesn't carry that confidence over to accepting a date.
