How I wish I learnt how to cook at an early age. I suffered for that during my youth service. The lady I befriended was the one doing the cooking. Whenever we had a little argument, no food for me o. Bread and Coke became my solace. For a guy, learning how to cook is essential.

And as for the friends stuff, our parents are always worried we may fall into the wrong hands. That's why they do advice against friends. It was their twisted way of protecting us. Little did they know it also interpretes as they telling us they do not trust us to make informed decisions.
