If that isn't love then what is?

I had original plans to busy myself with a book and after much reflection, my choice was set on New Moon; sue me, okay? I do love me some Twilight. But that was obviously the wrong choice as I went along the chapters. It made me question my whole entire relationship; DAMN YOU EDWARD CULLEN!

*Sorry, I didn't mean it Edward; I'm sure I'll swoon over you again in a couple of days when all of this madness is over!*

So I thought about writing an email to my bestie, since she is one of the few people who can cheer me up but she had already sent me an email; I told you we shared the brain. A friend of mine also sent me this list of what kids really thought about love and everything else and I must admit it TOTALLY cheered me up. Here's a few of my favorite quotes. I hope they bring a smile on your face.

On kissing:

"You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough bucks to buy her a big ring and her own VCR, 'cause she'll want to have videos of the wedding." -- Jim, age 10

On how people in love act:

"They act mooshy. Like puppy dogs, except puppy dogs don't wag their tails nearly as much." -- Arnold, age 10
