hypnotism
nuclear warfare
the titanic
forensic science
the holocaust
any of the old west outlaws (jesse james)

I really dislike;
-abortions
-drug abuse
-alcohol abuse
-physical abuse
-discrimination
-womanist [ohh if you did this you could say at the end, women can do whatever men can do but in tight shimmery outfits with high heels:]
I really like;
-television
-myspace [ohh maybe something on why it is so addictive]
-the internet
-fashion
ect. ect. ect. sky is the limit. be creative and have fun:] [ MzJENNiFER's advice column | Ask MzJENNiFER A Question ]
