Pause Parkland

By newyorkrunaway1,

Je dois dire... assez décourageant... mais félicitations aux gagnants... Il s'agit d'un vote communautaire, et évidemment méritée par ceux.... peut-être qu'un jour i aura l'honneur d'être le favori de la Communauté.... jusque-là... Je vais prendre une pause Parkland au revoir pour l'instant
