Yeah, more on the subject of diamonds... because I love talking about it.
I hate cut diamonds. I think they suck because it's basically destroying a unique, natural crystal to make it artificial and exactily the same as every other cut diamond. Instead of destroying a beautiful natural carbon crystal, you might as well make a cubic zicronia, which is inexpensive and looks almost exactily the same.
If you want to see what REAL diamond crystals look like, examine this page here:

(I also asked my boyfriend to buy me one of these, but tough luck for me)
(while you're there, look at the non-diamond minerals on that site. Nature is fricking beautiful)
