Get the Russian history lesson mug.A really sweet,smart, caring girl. Sensitive, stays true to herself, and to people. Rarely seeks revenge on people. Thinks a lot on how she can make things better, and is really helpful. Religious and naive. Sometimes gullible. Does not think she is attractive, but people always tell her she is. Likes to experiment new things. Sometimes anti-social. Laid back, and does not like drama. Funny and like to laugh, a lot. And she is ready for a good time.
