Got this from Noemi, with major revisions. It's actually something that I haven't discussed here so it's time to sit down and think. What type of guy rocks my world? :P 1. The first thing that comes to mind is sense of humor. It's not only the fact that he can make me laugh to the point that his nostrils are contracting and he's already being corny..it's also being able to laugh at my jokes and yes, even if the joke's already on him. Because my humor can be acerbic sometimes, bawal ang pikon. 2.Two things am OC about: grammar and hygiene. Not that you have to have an ... Continue Reading...
