    Truongs Maths Tutoring, any comments?

    Girls are allowed to have ear piercings. I don't think he approves of it anywhere else on the body. It is pretty 'radical' to have it somewhere else. Just make sure he doesn't see it then. =p

    Creative writing. Help.

    Whenever i write, i like to try pick something random, usually an object and use it as the central symbol of my story. My story somehow comes together by expanding on that symbol.
