This list may not be appropriate to discuss the people we admire, but for about a month we didn't have any topic and somehow I thought it would be nice to discuss at least something before the official school year begins in September and everyone comes back from vacation. Also, I didn't want other people from the list to read whom I admire, rather I wanted to see whom others from the list admire. For example, I can't wait to find out whom someone with a nick name "gogoslut" finds inspirational. This way I'd like to use the opportunity to apologize to all. I promise this will never happen again and I'll always stick to the usual topics.
