CJ is tired of posting week after week, and will be taking a one week break away from this online journal-ing. In his place, his younger cousin*, named Claire Janes** (nicknamed CJ***), aged 17, will be taking over the posting duties for the week. Something you need to know about the other CJ****: she is [...]

I said nice, and would love to go there one day; she told me to save up.
I asked her whether she missed back home; and she gave an hmmm expression.
I laughed; she said not really.

Song: Girls
Artiste: Sugababes
