Franca by PrinceOfSwaaaag June 19, 2011
Francas are one of the most intelligent, hardworking and caring people at all. They are one of the most athletic persons. They will always help you and be there for you no matter what. They can be cleaning-freaks sometimes because they like their home tidied up. They love to eat vegan because animals are very important to them. At first when you get to know them they may seem to judge you or they don’t show any interest. But when you know them, you will understand how they truly are. They can be annoying sometimes. If you know a Franca keep them, because you will never ever find someone like her again.
