The title today has nothing to do with what is commonly understood as a spring chicken.
I ate a lot of chicken yesterday, so some kind of chicken is all I have in mind--and I thought, why not the spring chicken for a title. I don't really like chicken. Actually, chicken meat is my least favorite, but I had chicken all day yesterday....hmmm.
The worst part is... I was thinking how much I hate chicken as I was eating it.
I'm mental.
Remember the boy I have the crush on? Haven't heard/seen him for days.
I still wear make-up though.

Crush
I have a high-school-crush.
Note: I didn't say I HAD a high-school-crush, I HAVE one.
That's right. I have a crush on a boy. Well, actually, he's a guy ( I don't know him well yet, so I'm not granting a man status for him yet). I thought I'd lose all the giggling when I turned 30. I'm pleasantly surprised to find that I still have a teenage girl living in me somewhere. I, WE, live in a society where women are not "sophisticated" or "independent" if she feels better about herself because of a love interest. Well, I'd like to opposed that.
I don't mean to pull a Freud and say that EVERYTHING we do is driven by a sexual drive or an attraction to our preferred gender. I'm simply saying that sometimes, it's nice to have a guy, or a girl, who make you blush a little. Since I've developed this crush, things have been much better. I don't feel too depressed about having no boy friend. I eat better, and stand up straighter. I put an make up and spray a bit of perfume to smell nice. I give a little more thought on how I dress everyday. The benefits are great too!
The major side effects, or should I say side ben-effects, are also pumping up my ego and confidence. People are noticing I look different, better, some have used the term "lovely". I notice that I am more pleasant to others. Then I realized.... I AM ATTRACTIVE. I learned that attractiveness is NOT something you are born with, but something you gain by making small changes that enhances you. For me, it was a high-school-crush like "thing I have at the moment. It may be different for other people. You just gotta find out what whirls your mojo.

Sugar Coating
I have a confession.
I LOVE WATCHING AMERICAN IDOL.
There's something that pisses me off BIG time though. -- Why is everyone against Simon?????!!!!
I think he's the most honest one of all. Any good artist knows, a good constructive criticisms are often painful to take. I hate watching Randy and Paula gang up on Simon because "that was mean!.." I like Simon for being honest, and incredibly straight forward with the contestants. He comes off as being snotty and jerky, but I think people have it wrong. If I ever get caught in a situation where I really need to know if I'm making a fool of myself; I WANT SIMON NEXT TO ME TO TELL ME!
I'm sure this is all part of the show. Sure it is.
The thing I don't like about, is that when a TV show is made, along with the writing and the style of the show/personnel, they are made to fit the majority of like-factor. So, translating the "act" of "let's make Simon the bad guy", who tells honest opinions and gives real criticisms, I can only come to a conclusion that majority of the American TV watchers don't like to face the truth. They all want things to be spoon-fed and sugar coated.
This kind of mentality makes me sick. If I get into this argument, I'll end up starting a train of thought that will not stop for a LONG TIME. COMMON PEOPLE, LET"S FACE THE REALITY--not just watch the reality show...
That's what I have to say today.
