mannerable 

A word that does not exist used by many to say some one has good manners or is well mannered.
It would not be mannerable of me to point out that Jessica Robinson misspelled "ridiculously" when attempting to make fun of someone named Shamieka. It would behoove her to use a real dictionary next time she decides to do such a thing.
She is a fiery, intelligent and attractive beauty but don't you dare underestimate because if you threaten her friends or family she can turn into a blazing asian and you don't want to see that side of her. She is super sweet, caring, giving, loyal and kind. She makes friends easily because she is very outgoing but don't mistake her beautiful exotic looks and soft sweet demeanor for weakness. She can aggressively defend herself, her family and friends if you overstep your boundaries. Definitely a tigress in the bedroom but also a woman you can take home to Mom.
I am so lucky my girl is Manresa because she has what every guy wants; intelligence, beauty, sweet and an incredible body who knows how to win over your mother but also knows how to get creative and is highly sexual in the bedroom. Definitely one of a kind.

Mannes College of Music 

One of the three main conservatories in New York City, the other being the Juilliard School and the Manhattan School of Music. Smaller than its counterparts and criminally underfunded, Mannes has earned a reputation for having demanding theory and ear training curricula. While the quality of its students vary from moderate to abhorrently terrible, the kids come out knowing slightly more than the average conservatory student given that the school actually teaches the student something outside their instrument. Notable students and graduates include Frederica von Stade, Murray Perahia, George Rochberg, Myung-Whun Chung, and Lara St John, among others.

Mannes is currently under the ownership of The New School, a pretentious, poorly administered university system based in lower Manhattan that always succeeds at making itself look better than it actually is. Fortunately, Mannes is one of the more independent schools currently owned by The New School, even if it still has to bear the mark of the university system's name in its "proper", verbose title: "Mannes College The New School for Music"
