aww, i’m a spring baby.
some of those funny japanese pics look photoshopped.
really want to try eating in that airplane restaurant. really curious about how the food tastes.
So, are you taller and stronger than your peers? :)
hehe, i’m actually one of the taller ones in my group of girl friends.
of course, girls can’t be compared to guys’ height.
strong? i have no idea…guess i’m about average.
however, my bf is also a spring baby.
he is just a bit taller than me, like a few cm.
and he is the skinniest guy i’ve ever seen. so sadly, i don’t have a really strong bf.
