sent postcard five - russia

larionova had nothing to say about herself.  literally.  she had not filled out the portion about herself, so i had nothing to go off of.. so i just wrote "i hope you have a wonderful day!"

sent postcard four - the netherlands

miranda has a strange phobia... she had no preference for what was on her postcard, she just wanted to let everyone know it couldn't have butterflies! i can understand, i hate girl hair (long hair that has fallen out, whether from males or females... it's all the same.  and disgusting!)  so... i sent her a non-flying animal, a roadrunner... and even better, they eat butterflies... so hopefully she can appreciate her card.  :D

jan and i have the same name... and i think that's fun.  :D  his favorite singers are celine deon and susan boyle... and i think that's fun.  :D  they may not be my favorites, but hey... the man likes music.  i told him that i am a singer and composer... and i drew a dot on the map where portales is... he seems like an alright guy.
