Valentines Day candy

I haven’t posted for a month, but now I feel like posting. I don’t have anything important to say. I’m just eating a lot of candy and I’ve been sleep-deprived for the past few days.
New Year’s Resolution: To get a boyfriend/girlfriend?
January 2, 2012
Some may find this pretty offensive, but I’m really not in favor for it of all honesty. No, it’s not because it’s about relationships. Having a relationship is a great thing to have.
The only thing I feel bothered by is how the reason for being in a relationship may alter. Getting a boyfriend or a girlfriend means that you fall in love with somebody and you want to be with them and not for any other reason (including it being a New Years resolution). Or at least, that’s my perspective of it.
For example, just imagine someone makes this his or her New Year’s resolution. Then this person meets someone he or she likes but not loves. It’s the last day of the year, and this person is sort of ready to be in a relationship with this person, but at the same time, wants more time before it happens because he or she doesn’t feel 100% comfortable or could trust this person. In that case, what should the person really do? Just get together with that person all because it’s his or her resolution, or should he or she wait until he or she is ready?
I’m not exactly telling people not to do it, and honestly, I’m not against people who do it if it seems that way. It’s more like if people do have this as a resolution, I hope they’re more careful on who they get together with. No one should feel pressured by a resolution to get a boyfriend or a girlfriend; it should just happen naturally.
So if that’s your New Year’s resolution, my only advice is to make sure that having that partner was through naturally being in love- not because you’re trying to fulfill a goal you set up in the beginning of the year or even just a mix of it.
About what my mom bought my boyfriend for Christmas
December 29, 2011
I didn’t expect my mother to get a present for my boyfriend, but she did anyways. As expected though, she gave my boyfriend a new sweater for Christmas- she always gives clothes to everyone. My boyfriend said he liked it, which I am proud of.
However, this post isn’t exactly about the sweater. It’s actually about the size of the sweater.
As most of you may not know, my boyfriend is 20 years old, but he’s 4’11″ tall, which makes him a pretty small guy. Since his small-sized clothes usually look big on him, I can assume he’s an x-small for adult men’s size or maybe even smaller.
Anyways, my boyfriend would sometimes vent a little about how most small adult sizes never fit him, which is why he doesn’t have a lot of clothes. He also tells me how he sometimes has to shop for clothes in the little boy’s section for clothing. Also, when people give him clothing, they usually give him a small adult size, which usually turns out to be too big for him.
When my boyfriend opened my mother’s Christmas present, it looked really nice, but I was a bit unsure about it. The size of the sweater was a “medium,” which is way too big for my boyfriend. But, of course, my boyfriend said it’s OK.
Yesterday, my boyfriend decided to try on the sweater. By surprise, he said that it fits perfectly on him. Honestly, I didn’t believe him at first until I saw him wear the sweater myself. It looked nice on him, and the fit was perfect.
Anyways, I did not really check where the sweater was from, but my boyfriend suspects it’s from a little boy’s section of a clothing store and not the adult’s, because a medium adult size will look too big on my boyfriend. Of all honesty though, the sweater looks like it’s from the adult men’s section of a clothing store and not the young boy’s, but likely it’s from the young boy’s section since it fits perfectly on my boyfriend.
So you know … my mom could have just made life easier for her and bought a a small adult size for my boyfriend instead (because after all, he’s an adult right? haha), but instead, she bought a medium size from the kid’s section, and she still managed to find a sweater that will make people think he got it from the adult men’s section. It’s just a thought.
I underestimated my mom.
