    Theres a lot of pinay DH's in Hong Kong,doesnt mean they arent degree holders,some do it to experience life abroad,some to escape something back home,be it a bad experience,a failed relationship or whatever,people are people,some of the smartest have no degree due to poverty or circumstance,the most interesting books I ever read were from an old second hand bookstore,the covers were thumbed and faded,but the words were alive and vibrant,I would rather have a woman with character written on her face and life experience,than someone who had sat in a uni for a few years,hope you find her edward



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    You seem not to have faith in the education system in PI. Is it sadly lacking and perhaps degree jobs are full of nepotism?
    It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of gum.

    Gary,your putting words in my mouth or not fully comprehending what I am saying I wasnt slighting pinas standard of education at all,I am just saying sometimes someone with character and history shouldnt be overlooked because they werent fortunate to have a formal education,maybe I was thinking of myself Most of us have baggage,if you really like someone you'll help her carry it

    Correct Mrs M,I was in Statue Square and Charter Gardens most sundays sitting around with puppy-dog eyes till some lady or another took pity on me and invited me to join their group for a chat and a feed The trick is to always look helpless,ladies cant resist that.

    True, true Character is something you don't learn in shool, (although character education is part of the curriculum in most schools)
    it is something molded in you as a person and inculcated in you as you grow up.....
    and you then develop it over time through your life experiences......
