Overview
About Me
I don't believe divination stuff but I think that personality of Taurus, which is my zodiac, describes my personality very well.
Tauruses are:
-Calm
-Stubborn
-Friendly
Every 3 months, I set 3 missions to accomplish. That makes me motivated. I knew that from one book.

The current missions are to:
