i have a crush on a boy in my class. having a crush is nice. he caught me looking at him though and my face went all red, i could feel it. i feel like you need to have a crush in winter, it keeps you warm maybe.

I usually read it as “limericks” so I’ve no idea. But the brain chemistry of crushing (which you can get to linked from that article) stuff is v v interesting. And how close crushing is to OCD, in brain chemistry terms, intrusive thoughts and all that.
