pondering...

So I was trying to fall asleep earlier tonight to get into the pattern of sleeping earlier and waking up earlier for work. Guess what? It didn't work. It's 2.30 or so and I'm awake. As I was trying to will myself to fall asleep a couple thoughts came to mind.
First off, today when I was picking up my suit from Mexx. I was trying the suit on once more before I left the store. There was this chick that was in the change room area awaiting her boy as he tried on some clothes. The whole 5 mins or so that I was in the change room, I could hear her yap yap yap. My goodness, all I could think of was, "is there an off button on this girl?" I felt bad for the boy, but then again, he might like it. Then, a second though hit me as the girl continued to yap away, I hope that I'm not or was not like that girl. Seriously guys, I know I sometimes have a tendancy to yap away, but if i'm just annoying please, slap me upside the head to shut me up or something. So that was my interesting event of the day, how sad.
On another thought I had, I realized that hugs are very important and seldom given out. Maybe it's cuz I've been a hermit or I don't show physical affection enough, but man, hugs are hard to come by. Maybe I've been watching too many sitcoms and soaps, but how come I don't get a hug everyday? I think hugs are affective on both a psychological, emotional and physical level. The warmth of having someone hug you makes you feel comfy, and psychologicaly you feel luved and cared for. Hugs. Guys, go hug someone. I'm sure people don't say it, but they need it.
Okay, I know this blog may seem long, but a lot of things come to mind when you can't fall asleep.So, here is a thought on relationships. When is it too young to be dating? 12!! Friggin 12!! I laughed when my 12 yr old cousin says he has a girlfriend. And to my surprise she wasn't his first girlfriend. Haaaaaaaaa. All I can seem to picture is little kids going, "will you be my girlfriend/boyfriend?" and the response would be, "okay" and by then end of the day they hate each others guts. Woohoo. Why are kids trying to grow up so fast? Man, my cousin is so ignorant of so many things and still in the phase of asking the "why's" and "how's". He's a kid. If they don't even know how to make good friends and know what constitutes as a good friend, how could they have a girlfriend/boyfriend? Gah. I think it's the school. Seriously, I may have heard wrong, but by the looks of it, my cousin has this girl has a girlfriend only becuase she's the only chick in the classroom that doesn't have a boyfriend. WHA?!?! These are grade 7s. I think I was still in my, "what? boys? those people that don't look like girls?" stage. Ha. Man, these kids should really focus on school instead of seeing which guy/girl they should date next week. Sigh. What has happened to kids these days?!?!
