pvoegtli There are many smells I like. But my most favorite one is "Acqua di Parma" Cologne Water. This is a unisex fragrance, very discreet and fitting anybody. It comes from Italy, is difficult to find, expensive but worth every cent.

Do you think drinking a lot of water helps weight loss?

krayzee @krayzee (1160) • Romania 9 Apr 07

How much water do you drink daily and have you noticed any effects? I read somewhere that the daily intake of liquids should be at least 2l, but I rarely manage that much. Do you?

recycledgoth @recycledgoth (9894) 23 Apr 07

pvoegtli You are completely right. Sorry is a tiny word. It makes all the difference in the world. But I do not think that it is difficult to say "Sorry". However, one should not just say "Sorry" for a futile thing. And above all, if one says "Sorry" it should be...
