  Is he at least able to cook or at least do some housekeeping work? 

  
  He can cook simple stuff la

  Housekeeping work? Don't make me laugh.

  I figured out that if I marry him I'll end up a slave which I don't wanna :P

  I'm not that domesticated myself

  I need a man who can clean up after himself

  Well, I'm quite messy, but it's my organised mess and I can live with it.  Anyways, my apartment is so tiny that fireman once said that there's hardly any storage space to hide anything here. 

  However, to have to live with another person's mess is quite another thing altogether. 

  I think after being solitary for so long, I don't think I can get into the sticky-ikky kinda relationship anymore.  I probably will need a man for companionship, to kill the pests and protect me from potentially poisonous and dangerous creatures here, and to share the bills so we can save up for travels, etc.  And also, if one of us falls ill, the other can look after the sick one. 

  I think I have a huge need for personal space and alone time.

  i do housework

  may not be good in cooking or washing, but i put in effort, that means half a bottle of cooking oil gone or 3/4 of the washing detergent will be used

  i also vacuum, sweep and mop (my expertise), fix computers, tidy the house, get rid of rubbish, fix lighbulbs, fix electronic stuff whenever i can

  i also happen to be a good student, charming, cuddly, sweet smile (my top charming tool), filial, of marriageable age, gentlemanly, leader

  i am single and available

  I even single-handedly built the furniture in my apartment here, and somehow dragged them into position.   

  Even figured out how to connect the TV to the DVD recorder.

  Heck, I even figured out how to fix simple leaks from the water cistern!

  I've also configured my dad's tv to vcd player to tape recorder in his room. it was a headache.. :P

  hahah yaa!! My hubby too. i think cos my father and my  brother are ths type

   

  i really cannot stand the other type who needs to call in the electrician just to change a lightbulb or what!!!

   

  What to do - hheheh.. a man who knows how to use his hands - that's sounds far more appealing right?

  he didn't say much.. route march, pick up random fullpack from those who are ill.. said "men.... follow me" and lead from the front... all the route marches!

  one time the bloody PTIs make us do SOC after Log PT, he went to argue with the Course Commander.. the CC don't want to change, he come back tell us.. "the CC says the time-table stays.. i will go with you" and did the Log PT and SOC with us..

  i don't think you can find OCs like these anymore..

  okay, unless it's an explosion, a burnt main box, I suppose all kinds of electrical stuff can be fixed, if want to be safe, flip the appropriate main box switch lo.. :D call electrician to change a lightbulb is like kind of pathetic.. just off the normal switch can hands on liao. duh!

  can.. back in my camp, all of them are like that. after outfield SOC or IPPT is normal. my OC ran dunno how many times IPPT to pace people.. route march wise, we carried our own friends packs, so my oc didn't have to touch much. some carry extra packs, some carry up to 4 sar 21s excluding their own rifles, during missions that is..lots of things..
