Unfortunately, Waterlily16 has gone back to sitting at a desk 5 days a week, suffering the necessary evil of school. A sad fact of life is, school is a greater priority than wikiHow. Because of this, Waterlily16 will be editing infrequently, and will not be available for most of the day on weekdays. You may still try to contact her through her talk page, but there is no guarantee she can get back to you within a timely manner.

About Me

I found wikiHow in June 2007 while googling about curly hair. I'm a bandie and I can't stand incorrect spelling or grammar (so I fit right in here). Whenever I learn something new I like to write an article about it. :)
