And there are no more 1.0's for her to get to replace it.... so she's upset... oh well, her stupid mistake.

I saw the left over of a tc that did the same thing yesterday. except he was driving like an idiot in an absolute downpour on the highway. and instead of spinning he only made a 180 before he hit the slown down construction sign.

those words by itself means:
Yin : no meaning by itself at all (this character has to be combined with another character to mean hero, by itself it is either completely meaningless or it can be used as part of a girls name)
Ming: life (by itself mean life, it will need another charater to mean destiny)
Shing: this can mean either "trust" or "mail" by itself, depending on the context ur using it.

all three words interpreted together from a chinese person's point of view:
"wuts this kid smoking? that makes no sense at all i hope he didnt tatoo that on his body"

all three words interpreted together from non chinese person's point of view:
"damn, those kanji looks hot!"

sorry, i just had to bash it...tired of seeing ppl pimping kanji when only 10% of time it would saying exactly what the person wants. I guess the person whom sold him/her the stickers would be to blame....
