Get the Marquis of Queensberry Rules mug.Marquisa is the epitome of beauty, grace, and class. A phenomenal Queen. Someone very strong and prideful yet so humble and gentle. A mother bear that takes up for anyone getting mistreated in her presence. One who doesn't need much but would give the ones she loves any and everything. One deserving of every good thing. Love.
Man if you got a MARQUISA, that's all you will ever need.
Treat that MARQUISA right bwa, that's a good than there!

Marquez is a really special boy who isn't like most boys you know. He has a great personality, he's really funny, sweet, he can be mean sometimes, but only for good reason. He is the type of person who you can feel comfortable talking about anything your feeling no matter what it is because he'll always know the right thing to say. He's the type that'll stay by your side for a really long time and go through the worst things with you right by your side. He's the type of guy someone would fall hard for and for a very long time, and will keep a girl thinking about him. He'll most likely stay on your mind even if things are rough between you two. A guy that'll most likely have you thinking about all of the really great times you've had together while you get butterflies in your stomach. A guy like him is most definitely a keeper for a very lucky girl who is perfect for him. Marquez is the perfect guy.
