I must admit. Nature has been kind with you, Samus
(I don't know if this expression his clear, I traduced it from French)

Don't be shy Pekini, Show us your face, dear!!!! :] We want to know the rest of the Cullumites faces!

Thanks! My uncle is a freelance photographer.

And thanks. I think I understand you! lol. =]

Good to see that my english is not so bad !



I think you'll have to wait a little bit, let me a find a correct picture of me ... But I promise, I'll do it soon !

Well hurry up and find one!

this forum only has cute and beautiful people!

So, I decided to reveal my face.

I choose this first picture because in those difficult times, a little love is welcome.
Me kissing my brother for the first and last time of the year 2008 : http://img174.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc02134pe9.jpg

A second one, just for fun, taken in Christmas again : http://img145.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc02130pz5.jpg

Sorry, but the links were the only way I found to show them

if you want to I can teach you to post the images without showing the links


by the way why it was the first and the last time you kissed your brother in 2008, if I may ask...

you seem to have a lovely family! thanks for sharing

"The first and the last kiss" ? Because my brother never wants ! He's just posing. A sad story hidden by a photo which seems full of love

Thanks Carol, I would like you to be my teacher !

Just a last one without my family : http://img233.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img000002sq9.jpg

sorry for the off-topic, but it's just to give some tips to Pekini:

first, I stop using imageshack because it is too slow and I don't like the website layout. it isn't easy to find the right bottoms.
so I use tinypic whick explains in what we can use the links that appear when we upload a photo.
if you want to post the image here so we can see it directly on the message board you chose 'IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards'.

ex:

and the link is: http://tinypic.com/

Oooooo! Pekini! Your pretty!!

Thanks a lot, both of you ! You are so sweet

Both Pekini and Carol, very cute!!!

Carol, I bet that you put yourself on the phone just for the photo

you bet! I dream of those London telephones for years!!!

gracias, Maru

Carol? Is it okay if I ask what your nationality is?

of course it is ok I am Portuguese. I live in the capital of my country, Portugal, which has border with Spain

Cool! I feel so.... American now... =[

why is that? that is not a reason to feel bad

Because... I'm half Mexican, part Peruvian, Puerto Rican, and Cuban. And I've only ever been to Mexico... Juarez... and thats right by where I used to live when I lived in Texas! So.... Thats why I feel really American. haha. And my boyfriend is Filipino. I'm surrounded by such beautiful ethnic people. But I've rarely left America! hahaha.

that is a really good thing!

nowadays it is very simple to travel around Europe. however the country where I live is one of the poorest of the European Union. I have Spanish origins too and I go to Spain at least once in a year, when I go skiing to the north. I went to Paris 3 times and to London last year. I don't travel more, because babysitting does not pay for the trips I want to make.

You two have very diversified origins ... Me, I'm French.... JUST French ! It's not very fascinating ... But I've been to London seven times, in Italy four times, and I go to Belgium everytime, because I'm living next to the frontier...

But I am jealous of you both. I'd love to travel across Europe. I used to live in Germany when I was little but that was a long time ago. And I barely went anywhere. AND I went to an American school.
When my boyfriend gets back from Iraq after he gets deployed we plan on going to visit some friends in Germany... only... The money that it is going to cost us is going to be the money that we need to pay for our car.

Don't worry Samus, every french teenager I know is jealous of american girls, because in America, students can make a party in their schools at the end of the scolar year !

well, I have family living in Paris, otherwise I wouldn't have money to go there. I would love to go to London, it is my passion. I just love that city. I am actually thinking of continue my studies in Brussels because I am studying Translation and one of my best friends lives there. nothing is certain because at this point I have no money to do so, even with a scholarship.
I would absolutely love to travel around Italy and the UK.

oh, and don't worry about my origins. I am just Portuguese, my grandfather is Spanish and I go to Spain a lot, but I do not have any family member living there anymore. I know something about their culture and they have a lot of things different from Portugal considering the two countries share borders.

Well, if you continue your studies in Brussels, don't forget to pass by Lille (it's on the way ) : shout "Claire ! It's me !" in the streets, I'll probably be there to answer

I've got to admit that i love reading about your origins! In my family we have part of italian blood and a bit of spanish. I ve never been out of my country, unluckily and i am really looking forward to go Italy, Spain and also England
I guess i should start earning quite an amount to travel after i graduate from Fashion Design!

OH oh! You mean Prom? I didn't go to my senior prom. haha. At my high school we had a lot of dances. I didn't go to very many.

Yes, Prom ! I was looking for the correct word !
So, we can deduce that every country has good points and bad points, we have to learn to appreciate them !

(It's 7:00 AM and my sentences are very odd, I must wake up)

Yes that is very true.

Oh... WAKE UP! Or go to sleep earlier. heehee. I hope you woke up plenty. =]

Yes, I'm awake now, I can say normal things

I'm not. I'm about to go to bed. I'm hanging out with my boyfriends mom tomorrow! I'm scared!

So ? How was it ? Are you still alive ?

Yess! Tell us dear. How was the hanging out thing with your mother in law???

It was great. She absolutely adores me. More so than her other sons girlfriend. And my boyfriend came home early!!! He got 2 weeks of leave so he surprised me!

Then we went on a little date... and he asked me to marry him!

Holy cow I'm soo excited.

Oh my gosh, honey!!! This news are incredible! I am very happy for you! Congratulations for the proposal!!!

Hi all!! I just wanted to say that I love to read about everything that happens with each one of us, but in order to mantain this thread clean, I´m asking you if we can just post only pics here or thread wise.

There are other threads to chat about whatever you want, and better yet, keep talking with the rest of the members

Thank you!!!

Me and my nephew!

It's me !! I'm French, but i'm in love with the UK
