French, Italian and Spanish...French first so that I can watch Audrey Tatou movies without subtitles..

• What’s your favourite quote?

Currently this one from Shantaram.

"Loves are like that. You heart starts to feel like an overcrowded lifeboat. You throw your pride out to keep it afloat, and your self-respect and independence. After a while, you started throwing people out - your friends and everyone you used to know. And it's still not enough. The lifeboat is still sinking, and you know it's going to take down with it. That's why I'm sick of Love."

• Who do you want to meet right now?

No one.

Black and Black

So now to do the rituals I shall tag some of my friends and/or blog-friends. If you despise tags and them as a farce, then you are excused. If not then I insist that you complete this tag and share with the world all the useless facts about you. Cheers.

This chain had to end somewhere and it is ME. The friends whom I want to tag dont blog and the friends who blog are not worth tagging.
