  Not bad, but only one question, is the writer a girl or boy? Can't really tell leh. First four lines seems like a boy talking. Last four lines seems like girl talking leh.

  No... the idea is to allow sgboy2004 a chance to mingle with the guy winner - who knows? He may prefer them from then on?

  E - Essential Letter in English
  ---------------------------------------------------------
  
  I am posting a story about how difficult it is not to put in a particular symbol in a story. It is fifth in rankings. It is not a consonant but it is a sound producing symbol, with its four siblings, 'a', 'i', 'o' and 'u'. If you do not put it in a story, your story cannot sound right. Your story must talk about now and not about past. It will also not follow important basics of this thing taught in all schools. Basically, you cannot do without it.
  
  ----------------------------------------------------------
  
  Sorry, i was having difficulty sleeping and therefore decided to attempt to write something without the letter 'e'. Which explains the crap in the above paragraph. It has only 86 words which means i fail to meet the qualifying conditions. Oh well...
  
  Anyway, you cannot use past tense if you do not want to use 'e'. Past tense of too many words use 'ed' thats why you cannot talk about the past. It wouldn't sound right because you cannot use basic words like 'the', 'be', even 'use'. And you will fail grammar because it is so hard to phrase it properly. So, you can't do without 'E'.
  
  I had fun. A poem is more possible. 'E' is needed for a proper story i think. 'E' is essential in languag'e'.
  
  Come to think of it, you can't spell the word 'spell' without using 'e'.

  You must had taken a lot of effects to write this.
  
  Lots of inspirations... I'm a lucky guy that night? <
  
  
  By the way just curious, the way you arranged the sentences, from 4 to 1, any particular meaning in doing so?
  
  
  That? Nope... Incidental...
