Being in love is a wonderful thing but also a luxury that few can afford...
情绪发泄的地点...只不过是化学造成的虚假反映...No drugs involved...just a constant battle of Seratonin, Dopamine, etc.
A journal in its own sense merely for the surge of emotions.

A Question for the Retainer Wearers...
Thursday, Jul 9, 2009 12:17PM / Standard Entry
So I realize that I don't really blog often enough and this is a ridiculous thing to blog about but I figured I would add in more random-ness. So here is a question for people that have to wear retainers for the rest of their lives. I have never had braces before and never had the experience of needing to deal with a retainer, but for those to do...as you get older Do you give good night kisses with retainers on? I mean I assume that as you get older you don't care as much and you stop wearing your retainers but I mean for couples I find it very interesting if they have to deal with retainers at night. Perhaps its not even THAT big of a deal and they just put it on last minute right before they fall asleep cuz they leave it on their night stand or something. LOL Just a random thought cuz it does seem like it would be some sort of slight hindrance.
Anyway...that's my random thought of the day
OooooOoo and also summer school isn't too bad and I would really like an A
My birthday passed and I'm no longer a teenager
I seem to have more relations with the opposite gender now and I actually have a fair number of male friends now and yet I have no interest in going beyond friendship [perhaps I'm over it LOL]
Nowadays I feel like I'm just waiting for something big to happen and for the rest of my life to take off
Apparently I'm still in CASA...they recognize me as being a strong part of it but I'm not sure I want to continue.
I'm thinking about changing my major
That's about it
Peace V^_~

Love
is a many-splendored thing... and a very surprising thing, too. As if
you needed proof of that, here are 25 funny little facts about love.
Study them, scratch your head over them, and share them with someone
you fancy.
1. Men who kiss their wives in the morning live five years longer than those who don't.
2. The oldest known love song was written 4,000 years ago and comes from an area between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.
3. When it comes to doing the deed early in the relationship, 78 percent of women would decline an intimate rendezvous if they had not shaved their legs or underarms.
4. Feminist women are more likely than other females to be in a romantic relationship.
5. Two-thirds of people report that they fall in love with someone they've known for some time vs. someone that they just met.
6. People telling the story of how they fell in love overwhelmingly believe the process is out of their control.
7. Falling in love can induce a calming effect on the body and mind and raises levels of nerve growth factor for about a year, which helps to restore the nervous system and improves the lover's memory.
8. Love can also exert the same stress on your body as deep fear. You see the same physiological responses -- pupil dilation, sweaty palms, and increased heart rate.
9. Brain scans show that people who view photos of a beloved experience an activation of the caudate -- the part of the brain involving cravings.
10. The women of the Tiwi tribe in the South Pacific are married at birth.
11. The "Love Detector" service from Korean cell phone operator KTF uses technology that is supposed to analyze voice patterns to see if a lover is speaking honestly and with affection. Users later receive an analysis of the conversation delivered through text message that breaks down the amount of affection, surprise, concentration and honesty of the other speaker.
12. Eleven percent of women have gone online and done research on a person they were dating or were about to meet, versus seven percent of men.
13. Couples' personalities converge over time to make partners more and more similar.
14. People are more likely to tilt their heads to the right when kissing instead of the left (65 percent of people go to the right!).
15. The tradition of the diamond engagement ring comes from Archduke Maximillian of Austria who, in the 15th century, gave a diamond ring to his fiancée, Mary of Burgundy.
16. Forty-three percent of women prefer their partners never sign "love" to a card unless they are ready for commitment.
17. People who are newly in love produce decreased levels of the hormone serotonin -- as low as levels seen in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Perhaps that's why it's so easy to feel obsessed when you're smitten.
18. Philadelphia International Airport finished as the No. 1 best airport for making a love connection, according to an online survey.
19. According to mathematical theory, we should date a dozen people before choosing a long-term partner; that provides the best chance that you'll make a love match.
20. A man's beard grows fastest when he anticipates sex.
21. Every Valentine's Day, Verona, the Italian city where Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet took place, receives around 1,000 letters addressed to Juliet.
22. When we get dumped, for a period of time we love the person who rejected us even more, says Dr. Helen Fisher of Rutgers University and author of Why We Love. The brain regions that lit up when we were in a happy union continue to be active.
23. There's a reason why office romances occur: The single biggest predictor of love is proximity. Familiarity breeds comfort and closeness... and romance.
24. One in five long-term love relationships began with one or both partners being involved with others.
25. OK, this one may not surprise you, but we had to share it: Having a romantic relationship makes both genders happier. The stronger the commitment, the greater the happiness!
