The Best Attention Getter
I have a friend that I've known for about four years. She happens to be my best friend. One of the first things that I found strikingly interesting about her was that she doesn't like chocolate. I thought about all the reasons why she could possibly not like it. The first thing that came to mind was maybe she likes all the attention she gets when people find out she doesn't like it. People just randomly talk to her about her little quirk even if they don't know her. She meets so many new people just because she doesn't like something. She likes being different so maybe she thought that not liking chocolate was something so different and not very many can understand it so she'll get more attention. It's also possible that she just doesn't want to eat it because of the color. It's really interesting because she is so picky and a lot of the foods are brown. Could just be a coincidence but...who knows. She gets a lot of attention from being so picky also. She seems to be the kind of person that nobody cares how picky she is; she's so intriguing that everyone will accomodate her needs. Last reason she that she doesn't like chocolate could simply just be because she had too much of it once or that her body doesn't like it. She could've once had eaten too much chocolate and the gotten sick because of it and then never liked it since. Which that would've caused a great deal of attention for her. Or she might just really not like it for the simple reason of not liking it and she can't help it but she still accepts all the attention given to her. So we see, if you happen to have a need for some attention then start disliking something that everyone likes and you will have more attention and friends then you'll ever really need.
( Alicia if you ever read this I mean it in the most loving possible way! ;p )

From a Girl's Point of View
Some guys consider their ego to be more important than other peoples' thoughts or feelings, or so it seems. When with their friends and a girl is around, they need to act all cool and macho. They'll ignore the girl who's trying to talk to him, or act like he doesn't know what he's talking about. Whereas, were he alone with her or with some of her friendshe would be very charming and attentive and not at all like he is with his friends. Now, why?
One reason they might do this is because they think they need to be two different people. They need to be one person around their friends and another around girls to be able to fit in. Boys might feel the need to be accepted in both worlds and so they act the two different parts so they can't be made fun of or teased. Maybe they feel insecureand just go with the flow. But, whatever the reason may be, it causes a great deal of frustration for the ladies, sometimes causing them to take unnecessary measures.
Another reason for them to be so egotistical would be because they want to impress people, girls, friends, anybody they can really. They need to look tough as if nothing could ever get in their way. Power is a big guy thing. Guys need to be stronger, better, faster then anybody else. it doesn't impress or attract girls. We get offended and annoyed when boys act macho and like their higher in status than us.
Boys really are sensitive and need to be loved. They are needy whether they want to be or not whether they think so or not. They need to be treated with care because their egos are so tender and fragile. We, ladies, need to understand the weaker side of guys and always remember what they are trying to protect when they offend you: their EGO.

Vrai ou Faux?
Is hand-washing really that hard? I mean, come on, it really isn't that hard to put some soap on your hands, scrub it on and rinse. but for some people it really takes some effort. Some people don't even care if someone sees that they don't wash their hands. I work at a movie theater and the other day I was in the bathroom cleaning the counters and a lady walks out of a stall and right out the door. WHOA! I stood there for a second and couldn't believe she just did that. I was standing right there! Maybe she didn't want to get in my way, but right then I was cleaning one of the three sinks, or maybe she thought that her hands didn't need to be washed or (I'm hoping) maybe she had hand sanitizer in her purse that she was going to use. But seriously, if she had some sanitizer she could've pulled it outin front of me so I don't think about these kind of things.
Only 11% of men and 17% of women wash their hands after using the bathroom. Why can't people just wash their hands! i can think of only a couple reasons why they wouldn't. They are in a really big hurry, but even then it takes less than a minute to wash your hands, or they might rationalize it and say, well the faucet is probably dirtier than my hands so why get them dirtier? Either way this world needs to slow and needs to stop thinking so stupidly. Which brings me to another topic I'll probably discuss later.
