Most of you guys don't have "bills", so any money you make is pretty much "fun money"...

I hate how much we want and we are never satifide with what we have. I went to the Eaton Centre and my sisters wanted all the expensive things which they didn't have money for... So my dad ended up paying for it.

These girls have beautiful skin! Why do they put on lots of make up? Comercials tell us that we need make up to be popular. They are bacicly telling us we need to buy this stuff to be pritty.
