Roshni

I'm extremely passionate and extremely quirky. Terrible combination if you ask me. I have many good friends, who have been there for me, time and time again. Am I lucky or am I lucky? Lol. I am a lil' too transparent, and I wear my heart on my sleeve. I love from the bottom of my very being and I'm very genuine. (And obviously, not very modest)I love kids...working with them, writing about them, and even hanging out with them. I have a lot of opinions on raising kids, but I am not ready to have my own yet. I am strong advocate for adoption and harvesting stem cells. I also believe in abortion...oh and I love Singlish. I think it's a beautiful language. Haha...(yes, in my world, Singlish is a recognised language.) That being said, no prizes for guessing that I love Singapore too. To steal from Borat: "Singapore greatest country in the world.All other countries are run by little girls."
