News Headlines (519) 13 October - 26 October 2014




ONLINE TODAY

13 October 2014 : A phone call changes things in a big way for you -- and maybe for someone close to you. It's likelier to be positive than negative, but you may still feel a bit trepidatious at first. You might be overly impressed by your own quick wit today, but others may not be so amused with your sharp tongue. Although you often express what's on your mind in the moment, you could choose to keep more to yourself as the day wears on. Nevertheless, there's no need to withdraw completely; just be discerning when making decisions about your communication throughout the day. If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all.

14 October 2014 : Try not to push those feelings down deeply today -- you need to make sure that you're feeling everything directly! It's a good time to mix it up with friends or family, just to let them know you care. Anything that can go right for you today, will. But you still may have some resistance on your part, for you believe that you shouldn't receive the goodies without putting in the effort. Although you could be coasting and soaking up the recognition, you might feel the need to work like a busy bee now anyway. There's no harm in being ambitious as long as you remember to step back and enjoy the fruits of your labor when you get the chance.

15 October 2014 : You need to find some new way to clear out the emotional cobwebs -- maybe a new exercise regimen, maybe a dance party or maybe a blowout fight (and make up) with your sweetie. Your behavior is confusing to your coworkers because you act like you know the score, but there is more going on here than meets the eye. There's tension brewing and it's not yet clear what your role is in the unfolding drama. Undoubtedly, your imagination is being tickled but your emotions are on edge; you feel restless, even rebellious today. Reality is performing a magic trick; if your attention lapses now, you could miss the action. Keep your eye on the ball and your focus on the game.

16 October 2014 : You need to take a few steps backward today -- though it's not technically a retreat. You may be moving toward home, or basking in nostalgia. Things may get a little weird by the end of the day. Hiding your feelings is not an option today, even if you think what you share could make someone rather uncomfortable. You're not interested in stirring up any conflict now, yet you probably won't let the possibility of discord get in your way. Say what you must, but remember to think twice before you just blurt out something that you wish you had kept to yourself. Waiting for the right moment is worth the extra effort

17 October 2014 : You need adventure -- and today is the perfect time for that! Your amazing personal energy helps you to see the fun side of almost everything, so make sure that you're sharing the vibe! You have an enticing opportunity to spend quality time with people you really like today, but you still need to finish your work before you go traipsing off with your friends. Unfortunately, they can distract you from fulfilling your promises. Thus, it is not a good idea to disrupt your regular routine today. Keep your current dissatisfaction to yourself and mind your responsibilities for now.

18 October 2014 : You need to take bold action! It may not be exactly what you want to do, but you're sure to do well if you can just force yourself to step up and take the bull by the horns. It's easier once you start. You are confident that others will live up to your high expectations today and are quite surprised if they fall short. Your willingness to give someone the benefit of the doubt could backfire unless you maintain objectivity when assessing the facts. Just acknowledge the limitations of available time and resources for all parties involved. Nothing is gained by blowing reality out of proportion. Bigger isn't always better; good things often come in small packages.

19 October 2014 : You need to try something new and healthy -- maybe an exercise regimen or an end to a bad habit. Whatever you decide, you should have an easier time sticking with it. Have confidence! Untangling a misunderstanding with a close friend or partner could be the right thing to do today. Although your first impulse may be to apologize for your role in the current mess, the planetary emphasis on your 7th House of Relationships indicates that both parties share the blame. The Virgo Moon helps you to keep your feelings to yourself until you are fully aware of all the emotional dynamics at play. Luckily, your patience will be rewarded in a surprising way if you don't push ahead too soon.


20 October 2014 : You need to stretch yourself a little and see if you can get things back on track. Your energy is just right for volunteer work or just for doing random good deeds. Rack up some karma! You may be drifting on the winds of fate, yet this can still be quite a memorable day if you relinquish control willingly. There might not be any reason to pretend you're in charge if you're not -- and there are no advantages to working extra hard now just to prove a point. Events don't necessarily unfold as expected; graciously accepting whatever happens next can make your journey more enjoyable from the start. Exercising your sense of humor allows you to see life from a more lighthearted perspective.

21 October 2014 : This is not a good time to openly criticize people or programs, even if they sorely deserve it. Hold on to your thoughts for just one more day and things should make a lot more sense. A radical shift in relationship dynamics might mean that someone finally understands your point of view. But don't assume that your friends will automatically encourage your independent behavior just because they listen to your story. Instead of pushing your luck, be thankful they accept you as you are rather than trying to change you. You won't gain any further advantage if you continue to pull them outside of their current comfort zone. Knowing when to back off is essential to cultivating a harmonious atmosphere for everyone involved.

22 October 2014 : You just need to listen today -- all is clear, really. You may need to slow down and exercise serious patience, but you should be able to get to the bottom of it without undue stress. You have no easy outlet for your passions today, and could grow uncomfortable with the dynamics of the situation. Perhaps the real problem is that you can't express your negative emotions. If you need to let off steam, it's wise to find a less disruptive way to vent your feelings. You must get to the source, however, to discover a permanent solution to the current tension.

23 October 2014 : You've got plenty of charm and goodwill going for you, so make the most of it and try harder than ever to make it work. You don't need to exhaust yourself when you can get others to do the heavy lifting. Ironically, what you say today might not have as much impact as what you don't say. Although the Scorpio New Moon Eclipse rattles your 8th House of Intimacy, it's difficult to ask for your heart's desire. Your emotions may seem detached from your communication unless you make a conscious choice to include them in your story. Don't wait for a better moment; if you take a chance and tell a loved one what you want, you might just get what you need.

24 October 2014 : It's just a little too easy to get aggressive today -- so make sure that you're checking that tendency. It's not likely to get you anywhere, and the short-term satisfaction just doesn't last. You might end up expending precious energy and exhausting yourself for no reason today. Although a friend or lover may seem distant, your current situation ultimately serves you well if you simply learn your lesson. But don't attack someone needlessly just because you're feeling insecure. Admit that you can make mistakes and then proceed with caution the next time around.

25 October 2014 :  Something that others see as small upsets you early today -- and you're almost certainly going to have to deal with it directly, if discreetly. Try to address your feelings first, if possible.You say whatever is on the tip of your tongue today; however, you could step into deep water so quickly that you don't have time to get your bearings. Unfortunately, you may be even more impulsive than ever with your words now that mischievous Mercury moves forward in your 7th House of Relationships. Although you might be tempted to stir up some drama, you're still better off approaching a conversation about your feelings with thoughtful deliberation. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.

26 October 2014 : Things aren't quite going your way today -- but that's okay! Every now and then, you need to go through some down time in order to let your subconscious mind process all your victories. Domestic chores don't feel so tedious today because they shift your attention away from the complexities of relationships. You might not find a quick fix to messy emotional dynamics that have developed recently. However, a solution is more likely once you take a few steps back and give everyone involved a bit of breathing room. Thankfully, doing mundane projects at home is more than just a distraction; they can be a wonderful way to keep busy and feel good about your accomplishments.

Weeping


Who knows whether the sun is not a blind man? - Les Misérables


The sun can be so bright, but it's so far away and it does not care about human misery. Les Misérables, which was first published on 1 April 1862, wants to be closer to the earth and sensitive to the cry of France. One line of its famous sentence is, "Those who do not cry, do not see".



Victor Hugo wanted our eyes become wet and see with sensitive to around us. In general, he succeeded, at least among his readers in 200 years ago. It is said that the first publication of this novel in Brussels was delayed because the interpreter print sobbed when reading the manuscript.

The novelist did not want to be a great thinker. He did not want to stare at the universe and see the history merely as survey region. He did not want to be busy with the layout of the zodiac, so, he did not see the little boy in tears.

Not surprisingly if the novel --- which consists of five long parts  --- crowded with small figures, rich in heart-wrenching scenes with  repertoire of inexhaustible words. Paragraph by paragraph to move between the author's reflections and the role of dialogue; most of 'Les Miserables' is the agony. Fantine, a pregnant girl who was abandoned by her boyfriend and became a prostitute. Cosette, an stranded orphan ; Jean Valjean, a man who was sentenced to harsh for stealing a loaf of bread.

Not only that. This novel sometimes feels like a compound melodrama. But, actually Les Misérables is a political novel. Through its chapters, we gradually get into the background of Paris before Revolution of 1830. The people voice, especially the workers, increasingly loud in public, in wine shops, in meeting salons, everywhere.

The revolution's fever spreading in France. Pulse of revolution was throbbing hard everywhere. Like membrane created by the inflammation and forming a human body, a network of secret societies began to spread across the country.

In the network, in the half hidden back rooms, the workers vowed to immediately take to the streets at first the sign sounded. And barricades were set up. Apparatus of power was challenged. The shootings occurred. The blood spilled, the smoke filled the sidewalks. In the cracks, there were "mouths spitting the fire breath", "tremendous faces".

In a scene like that we see: politics is a mobilization of all its energy and its mind to convey its meaning, when people are struggling to change things for a better world. Political transforms a regular human, limited and fragmentary, to be the subject who are moving and driven by demands that exceed their limitations and self-interest.

At such times, political growth of demand and empathy: from "seeing" and "crying".

Crying, in terms of Hugo's style is an "ethical experience". I borrowed this word from Simon Crichtley in Infinitely Demanding:  an experience when the ethical demand comes. and "I'm ready to tie myself to it." With this I am firmly committed -- not just to meet the normative creed -- because there's something nefarious is going on.




The demand is coming from myself, not governed. And not only that. If it is called as the result of reason or intellect, then the reason -- as demonstrated by Hegel and Marx -- is a social nature, derived from the process of sharpening each other, mutual love, mutual-parenting in history. It rests on a concrete and limited situation but to reach a universal value.

That is what is growing inside Jean Valjean: a profound ethical demand, since he was pardoned by the pastor whose furniture and silver stolen, his head was hit. He became an unconditionally helper, without wanting to be recognized.

How can that be? Well, maybe it's about conscience. But in brief word contains the story of humanity which has been fully described.

"To write about conscience," Hugo said, "Even if it's about a man solely, even if it's about the most blasphemed, we have to digest all the definitive and valuable epic tale".

The epic tale seems to remind us  about the deep ethical demand which makes Jean Valjen be a good person. Revolution of 1830 is not only melee. Political is moved to reach a universal value. I think Critchley is true: ethics without politics is empty, politics without ethics is blind.

Duh duh sorry, if it seems inconsequential in terms of putting objects. This is a photo and video which have nothing to do with your mind at all, but it's very inspiring for my mind.

In this photo: Alain Soral was sitting in the pantry. He sat listless because he was being punished to get his favorite dinner.
Oh oh oh, everything in this world looks blue if your heart is blue, right?

Well, last night I had a dream. In my dream, I had a secret date with him. We've promised to forever we will always keep it a secret from everyone, until finally my pregnancy is not a secret anymore.

Geez, it turns out... he can impregnate me? Wow, that's very cool. I'm pregnant without orgasm? Orgasm without pregnant? How many times? 1! 2! 3! 4! 5! ... Olala, I can not remember how many times I have sex with him, but it is certainly not a beautiful sex story on the first date.

Well, what is actually happening in my dreams is, I have no sex drive anymore. Menopause has made me lose my appetite, my weight dropped dramatically as a result. And it turns out there is a link between weight and sex drive. Having a super slim skinny body and be a precise thinker are the sexy things for me for when I'm with him. Well, I do not mind if finally you know that what I really want from life is just to live happily and die with a super slim body. I do not like fatty foods, you know?

I fall in love with his books and his thoughts earlier than his sexual organs. And in my dreams, do you know what become of his sexual organs? Ahahhaa ... ... only his mouth, his eyes and his fists, ahahhaa ... Alain Soral does not have a very revolutionary penis, for example, ... mmm... about a civilized penis of a strong man which always lying uncivilized at the end of a love story, maybe? Ahahaa...

(This is just my silly humor about your masculinity, my handsome bald man. You're so ... mwah! Go get your top position through the establishment of a dream party. That is a normal path in politics. Mwah! Mwah! Mmmmwahh...!)

Babi Yar

In 1961, Yevgeny Yevtushenko wrote a poem about the people who were killed in the long gloomy ravine in the northeast of Dnieper River:
I was every parent
who here
shot dead.
I was every child
who here
shot dead
Twenty years earlier, in Babi Yar, almost 34 thousand Jews -- including children, the elderly, women -- were killed by German troops in just two days, 29-30 September 1941.

Yevtushenko is not Jewish. The poem, "Babi Yar," stated, "In me there's no Jewish blood". But he sued to what happened in that place as a ferocity that was being forgotten, and thus also the ferocity in the past that is not recognized.

The Russian poet wrote his poem after Stalin died, and people can read it as a reminder of the atrocities that have occurred in the past itself, as I will be able to read it here with similar memories.

Naturally, the German slaughter of Jews was incomparable, because in fact each of cruelty can not be compared. As in the Babi Yar. A German army truck driver who was on the spot told his testimony:

After they were stripped, the Jews were herded into a ravine, through two or three entrance slit. When they arrived at the base, the Schutzpolizei officers encouraging them to lie on the bodies of people who had just been shot. It all happened quickly. The body was layered. A policeman came and shot each Jew's neck with semi-automatic rifles. Once the Jews were killed, the shooter would walk across the dead man's body to shoot the others. It was seemingly endless, and all -- men, women, children -- were killed. Children laid near their mother and shot together."

But, with a cruelty that nearly 34 thousand were killed in two days, incomparable, still caught us with questions about men in general: How wild was the creature?

From Germany history, the answer can vary. There's hatred of people of different racial, and since so many centuries ago, what's different means Jewish. There's a feeling of humiliated nation and the people who suffered after the defeat in World War I, accompanied by a strong desire for the country, a strong leader with a raging vengeance.

But, with Germany's typical causality, Hitler and his regime still wanted to be recognized as part of something universal. The Führer believed that life was essentially violent. "The law of life in the world", Hitler said in a banquet during the October 10, 1941, "Requires continuous murder, so that those with better can live".

What is troubling is that the killing occurs in other places, done by other nations, as if history can't be changed, humans are naturally violent and Hitler brought the correct normative system: "his law" is worth as law, eternal and applies anywhere. But we remember, he called "life". Life is change. Some of the atrocities are not just new versions of the same themes.  Hitler himself was in another era from the time of Genghis Khan, for example, with another ambition and desire and ways to implement another passion, too.

So when he suggested that the killing was a "law of life", he was actually trying to justify cruelty and destruction that was designed and implemented by him. He as if to say, "I'm innocent, I just run what is out there and there will be continued in human history."

What is not recognized by him is that he needs to apply for the apology (in the name of "law of life") because there is something else, which is outside the "life" is seen: there is a different normative system, something that has not been conquered.


And that is later proved. Hitler normative system can't survive, not just because he lost the war. Yevtushenko poem said, "When atrocities find their allies in other times, in other places, then so does the victims. "I" -- who feel kinship with them who were slaughtered at Babi Yar ravine -- also see myself in a far murder place, at a distant day:
And here, on the cross, they destroy me in torment,
And the rest of the nails in my body is still there,
In other words, there will always be a new lawsuit to new atrocities. Also those who say "no" in a new way.
***

Alain Soral is very inspiring to my mind.
Is he also an admirer of Tolstoy like me?





Olala... my dear handsome bald,
If you want to express through writing, of course, you do not just write whatever all you want. If you have any ideas or thoughts you want to convey to others, then of course you also need to first think about whether others can just understand what you say in your writing, because if you are wrong in conveying or wrong way, then your reader will not understand you. It can be a misinterpretation. Maybe there will be the readers who will protest against you, even going to argue your opinion.

What the heck? ... An unrelated photo already inserted here?
Haiyaaa ... this must be your doing, Cisca!

Criticism, rebuttal, and even criticism of the readers have become your risk as a writer. But everything should have been contemplated and anticipated before writing. Positive criticism and praise will be nice. Conversely, negative criticism can indeed make the writers become desperate. All this can be avoided by prior arrangements. You must have responsibility for your writing. If you intend to express your opinions, ideas, thoughts, and feelings, of course it's because you are sure that everything will be beneficial to others, right?

Writing about health problems in the medical journal, for example, must have strong foundations to be justified scientifically, likewise, themed social writing, religious, modern technology, economics, and so forth. The author must master the material presented.

At least, there are three elements as author's code of ethics, namely: elements of information, education  and entertainment. Awareness of responsibility should exist in the soul of every writer. Your courage to express your opinion and freedom of expression in the arena of writing will be appreciated by the reading public, if you do have the ability to account for the benefits as well as the truth. Moreover, if your books are able to move the conscience of your readers and then create an opinion in the community. This is your success as an author, even your books can change the world's view. O Yes, why not?

After all, some of famous novels have changed the world's opinion. For example, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe which told about cruelty of inhuman business of black people's enslavement. Not only America was shaken, but the worldwide also stunned to read a book that boldly open the sores in business with great advantages. One more example of the author's courage in exposing the hidden ugly facts, that is, when the French author, Emile Zola defended Alfred Dreyfus, a French military member who was thrown into prison for defamation case. Hearings on this horrendous case proved that Dreyfus was innocent. Therefore, he decided to open a scandal involving the key people in French military service in early 19th century. He wrote an open letter to the President through L'Aurore newspaper under the headline "J'accuse". The great novelist dared to risk going to jail for the sake of truth believed. And this was not in vain, because Alfred Dreyfus was later released. Imagine how great he was. Alone, armed only with pen and ink, Emile Zola managed to uncover the corruption scandal behind the shocking events.

Well, the footage stories about the courage of Harriet Beecher Stowe and Emile Zola are just two of thousands of brave authors scattered in various countries around the world. Everywhere, at all times, there will keep popping those who faithful to their conscience and convey their experiences, ideas, and what they feel through writing. For the sake of truth and justice, the authors are willing to face the risk of anything. They are heroes who do not expect anything but a gift of expression to their reader for lofty goals. And this is -- of course -- quite different from those who just want to take advantage of professional writing  for purposes related to self-interest.

Mmm ... you look like a famous celebrity, damn it! Ahahaa ... why do not you explain the continuous humiliation by Jews against Christians, hm? Or about Piss Christ, for example?

But I know one thing for sure, let's say you are ugly, then, are you ready to accept the fact, that you're so ugly? Yeah? And you are not angry? Yeah? But instead you thank the people who criticize you, assuming that it can be a good message to improve your appearance? Yeah? To be better, not to get angry because they say you're ugly ... ahahaa ... Yeah?
Similarly, I've been saying "I love you", but only in my heart. Ultimately, no one knows about it. It's the most safe action, is not it? ... Ehehee ... thus, even if there's any apocalypse in your heart, please do not tell them, okay? Your "Shhh" gesture in court was very enjoyable to be watched, but sure enough the gesture is not good for your authorial career, right? Shhh. Well, you will only be silent when you are dead, right? Shhh. Even in your dreams you will not be silent, right? Shhh. Well, hopefully forever God will always bless you, my handsome bald man. Shhh. Do not "shhh" me for this hope, okay? Shhh.
What? Shhh is very noisy, right?... ahahha ...

News Headlines (518) 1 October - 12 October 2014




ONLINE TODAY

1 October 2014 : You need to take a break -- or at least slow down. Your energy is better for quiet solo projects or for recovering from exhaustion, so make sure that you've got a good place to do your own thing. You might land in a heap of trouble today if you think you should have power without first earning it. You could inadvertently set the wheels in motion on an idea that's fueled by passion rather than logic. Back up your decisions with solid facts and not your feelings if you want to reach your destination on time.



2 October 2014 : Can you stay grounded? Now is the time to find your center and approach those you usually have a harder time dealing with. Things should start to make a lot more sense in the near future. Involving others in your process is a smart idea today, even if they aren't fully supportive of your plan. However, there's no reason to express every idea you have out loud. Instead of furthering your agenda, you might be dragged into defending it. Reevaluate your goals and then push toward your destination rather than worrying about what you could have done differently. It's more effective to live in the present than to dwell on the past.

3 October 2014 : You feel like a pioneer -- and with good reason! Your terrific mental energy is helping you to blaze new trails professionally or maybe romantically. Something new is more appealing than anything else. It may seem as if you're at a fork in the road, but a mental fog is making it nearly impossible to see the obstacles ahead. Luckily, you have a network of smart people in your life that are able to give you much-needed guidance. But you could place so much trust in others that you forget you are the only one who can decide which path to follow. Listen respectfully to all the advice you receive, make your choice and don't look back.

4 October 2014 : You know you're a natural leader, right? Exercise that privilege and direct your colleagues or friends toward something new. It's a really good time to show people what to do rather than tell them. Sometimes you forget how aggressive you sound when trying to make your point. You might actually believe that you're the only person who sees the whole picture clearly. Unfortunately, your unwarranted confidence may frustrate your friends and associates today. There are many paths to the truth, so don't act like yours is the only one. Thankfully, you can make substantial progress if you remember that others have the same right to their own perspectives as you have to yours.

5 October 2014 : You need to slow down as much as you can today -- otherwise, things are sure to get weird. Your energy is a bit out of sync with your people, but that just means that you've got to take it easy. It's not an easy feat to fulfill your need for independence in a relationship while also wanting to be fully present for someone special. Usually, these desires seem mutually exclusive, but you believe you can do both today. Unfortunately, your partner may have an entirely different set of expectations. A misunderstanding complicates things quickly, so take time to clarify exactly what you want. Reaching a solid understanding of each other's perspectives is the safest way to deepen the connection in spite of your conflicting views.

6 October 2014 : Someone needs you -- probably fairly early in the day. Make sure you're accessible and emotionally ready for whatever may come your way. Your response is more important than you realize. You may be so quiet today that others wonder if you're okay. The Moon is occupying your 12th House of Privacy, but you have current obligations that prevent you from disappearing from view. You're not obliged to explain your emotional retreat, but at least let someone know when you plan on returning. Meeting your responsibilities and keeping others in the loop can give you a chance to escape with a clear conscience.

7 October 2014 : You're torn between your ambitions and your wildest dreams -- but you may not have to make the choice just yet. Don't close any doors, but try to stay aware of what's going on around you. You might believe you're communicating your needs clearly today, but you could be unintentionally sending mixed signals. To complicate matters further, a partner may run hot and cold, leaving you unsure about where you stand. Ultimately, the dynamic energy is exciting if you can let go of control now, since pushing your agenda on anyone else is a sure invitation to trouble. However, the relationship dance will continue to evolve if you don't try to restrict the movement. Drop your expectations and follow your heart.

8 October 2014 : Something new swings into view and may get you curious about a person or activity that has never much interested you before. Your amazing personal energy guarantees it as a thrill ride. You could burn one too many bridges today, but containing your feelings isn't feasible with the Aries Full Moon Eclipse activating your 1st House of Self. It may feel as if someone is exerting control over you and blocking your progress. Although your initial reaction is to just come on stronger and steamroll your way over anyone else's objections, you could misjudge the severity of the situation. Don't waste energy creating more conflict; take the high road and seek common ground instead.

9 October 2014 : Your cultural leanings are making life a lot more interesting -- and your mental energy is in perfect sync with the rest of the world! It's a great time for you to step up your game and move forward. Although you might be offered a chance to take it easy today, nothing comes without a cost. The problem is that even if you manifest a mini-retreat, unexpressed emotions can build in intensity until you must do something about the situation. Be daring and share what's on your mind now with a close friend or coworker, but watch the tone of your delivery so you don't stir up petty disputes. Instead of wasting time in conflict, a gentler approach sets the stage for a meaningful dialogue.

10 October 2014 :  People might not notice all your hard work -- you move too quickly for the human eye to see sometimes! Today, you're taking some time off to celebrate a recent (maybe very recent) success. It's time to take a project you already started and give it a lasting structure. However, if you can't add stability to your previous venture, it might quickly fade into the past. You can influence the outcome by where you place your attention. If you do nothing now, your recent efforts could be wasted. However, if you focus on creating maximum impact, you will likely be well on your way to success.

11 October 2014 : Your energy may be leveling out, but that doesn't mean you can't still pull off a big win. You are tied to the past in some way, so you may be able to score at an antique shop or trivia contest. You are insistent to win the approval of others today by wearing them down with your charming and innovative style. Unfortunately, you are relentless in your approach and might not know when to call it quits. You can still carry on a passionate discussion within your own head. It's fantastic if you learn something about your feelings in the process. But if you're not ready for the reality of a relationship now, then it's wiser to simply be honest and move on.

12 October 2014 : An email or instant message pops up early in the day and keeps you guessing for hours. This is a good thing! A little ambiguity helps you focus your thinking and get ahead of the curve. Everyone else seems to have answers for your questions today, but you aren't convinced that any of them make sense. Your window of opportunity won't last forever, so don't put off your decision for too long. Unfortunately, your confidence can steer you wrong if you think that adding more alternatives now is your best bet. Instead of seeking more choices, just pick the most practical one available and don't look back.

Aahahaa .... he is very antique.

Shhh,... don't struggle with the noisy sound of plates, my dear. You are so disturbing my concentration. So, we'd better pause briefly, with drinking two or three cups of coffee milk, having sex and reaching orgasm for 3 minutes in a half hour of hard effort, hmmm .... what do you think? Promise, I will not be noisy... ahahhaa .. I really like his face expression when he strongly disagreed with the noisy stuff at home, .... ehhhee, sexy hypermetropia.

Oh do not slam the door, please, and please ... do not disturb me with the melodic sound of your fart, ehehee ... oopss... one more thing : don't pick your nose in public, okay?

Miao ...

Shh ... whose cat is that?

Shut up! Now select: kiss or slap, hm? Oh oh oh, I really want to kiss your bald head, ... oooh ... my baby ....

What?

Hello. Meh, you change your mobile phone number, whowaaa ...

Hello, is here where you live? Where's the bedroom? Haa, you are so sexy when alone at night. Ahem ahem. Hello, you can not speak English at all. Hello, I am more easily aroused if courted by using French language, to achieve sexual orgasm in French language and express it in French language as well, ... Shanananana ...

Knocking his head for 2-3 times is the most friendly movement. I like his style. I always do the same thing when I'm longing for him. Sometimes what is said by my brain is very disturbing my heart. And I hear my heart replying the voices in my head louder, " I love him! I love him!" ...









Ooh-la-la ... I have invested almost three-quarters of all my money. Now I don't have more money to the unimportant things, except for the purposes of dealing with my baby, and you/us. 3 years from now, can we still meet? Are we still alive? Wrinkles on your face will be many more, of course. And for me, it's the coolest thing in your face.

Dear handsome bald, do you know that --- for me --- no young man can compete with your masculinity? No? Well, now you know. Yea, if the I deserve to be contested by many men, ahem ahem ... ahahha ... ..., then your competitors are those with a caliber like Vladimir Putin, Fidel Castro and suchlike, ahahhaa ...
