**My self-summary:

Want to really know? or want to tell me that you like me? You've to take some effort! Write me with the answer to a few of these questions. It doesn't have to be right. Just give it a try!

You are driving on a rainy night in your two seater sports car. You see three people asking for ride. One is a doctor that had saved your life before. The second one is a dying patient, who needs medical attention asap. The third one is the hot guy/girl you've been having crush on for a long time, so much wanting to meet or spend time with him/her. What would you do?

A girl is at her mother's funeral, where she meets this really hot guy. He leaves before she could get his number. A week later her sister dies. Why?

Three friends dine in a restaurant, and they get a check for 25 dollars. Each of them puts 10 dollars each, and the waitress comes back with 5 dollar bills. Each one takes one dollar back, leaving two dollars for tips. So, Each of them put ten dollars and got one dollar back, so they effectively spent 9 dollars each. The total money they spent is therefore 9*3 = 27 dollars. There's two dollars left in the table. So, 27+2 = 29 dollars, which is short of one dollar from 30. Where did that dollar go?

P.S:

1. I work with my computer for my living, so I'd like to have my social life outside of this realm. I like chatting online and all that, but I do not want to chat for ever before I meet someone. If you're just looking for an online friend, please click the 'back' button.

2. Trusting is my strength and weakness, and not being trusted is my pet peeve. Please do not write me if you had a violent past, abuse, emotional instability, that makes you feel you cannot trust someone or me.   Send me a message!
