My friend loves to eat meat. Every Wednesday we used to go after work to get some smoky barbeque ribs. It was our thing. Last summer I introduced him to a girl who was back then my neighbour. They fell in love — I was so happy for them. He finally found the love of his life.

Since I’ve moved to the UK for the majority of my time I’ve lived in Leeds, a city which is located in the region of West Yorkshire.

This Is Why I Sleep 10 Hours A Day And Instantly Feel “Sexier”
“What is your favourite time of the day?” “Bedtime!” I am a long sleeper. Always was. When I was a teenager, my mother just could not wake me up in time to go to school. Don’t get me wrong, I loved school — I just could not and would not wake up in time.
