A very deep, caring person. She has a natural talent for many things, mostly subjects involving the use of her analytical mind. Mathematics. Science. However, she is also a creative soul, who enjoys growing her repertoire of skills through music, and can play many an instrument. Though she will never be Susan Boyle, her singing voice is soothing and even.

Unfortunately, not many are given a chance to see this creative side of her, as she is very shy and nervous in front of crowds.

A Sylvian also tries hard to forge deep and meaningful relationships, ones that last long and remain strong.
Also, much to everyone else's chagrin, a Sylvian has a large appetite, and eats alot, but her perfect figure remains.
Think of the shyest, happiest, smartest, and most talented people you know. Combine them and shove them in a hour glass figure that has no right staying so shapely with all the food it recieves.

Damn you and all your talent, Sylvian, and damn you for being able to have ice cream as well.

A Sylvia is very different from all the girls you'll meet. If you meet one, you'll always be able to tell because your heart will beat more rapidly and you'll feel a strong attraction toward her. She is of unparalleled beauty inside and out, a perfect specimen. She is an intellectual genius who is always honest, loyal & upfront with anyone. She is best at hiding her pain, or even happiness. She loves everybody; some shes loves to be around, some she loves to avoid, and others she would love to punch in the face. She is easily annoyed/ irritated by people who are fake or don't have any common sense.

Note: Try to win her heart before someone else does and don’t let anything or anyone cause you to lose her. She deserves to be loved the right way, and for all the right reasons. If you don't value her while she's yours, you will regret it when she leaves and never come back. If she's yours, you are the luckiest ass in the world.
Person 1: “So, I was with my friends walking the promenade...Then a girl passed by like a shooting star...I started falling for her, without a warning...Since that day I've been walking around the whole place...Hoping I would bump into her or her into me, but nothing...”

Person 2: “Yeah, she's defo a Sylvia!”

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
