Got so many things to complain about, but too tired to.. Wasnt intending to blog but the printing is taking too long, so while waiting I must as well.. So busy today, catching up with homework, training and thinking of what to buy for Vday present.. The last seem to be the hardest.. Hai..
And dear dear also bully me yesterday.. I really think that crying is ok.. I do agree that crying is useless, but being useless it doesnt mean that it is wrong to do it.. And it is not all useless.. It does help people calm down and settle down faster.. To actually show myself that I'm indeed right, I went to read up a bit about crying.. =p but I'm really curious if I'm wrong.. (btw I cried today, maybe not cry but teared.. And I did the reading is more to prove that it wasnt wrong.. Even if its wrong, I cant control it.. The frustration I was feeling then was terrible..)
This is what an article is basically about:
Crying and laughter are beneficial to us both emotionally and physically. We must have them to function in the world.
Scientists have discovered that the emotional tears contain higher levels of manganese and the hormone prolactin, and this contributes in a reduction of both of these in the body; thus helping to keep depression away. Many people have found that crying actually calms them after being upset, and this is in part due to the chemicals and hormones that are released in the tears.
Many believe that the body, in times of emotional stress, depends on this gland to release excess amounts of chemicals and hormones, returning it to a stable state.
Women have been allowed to cry more than men traditionally, but the benefits of crying seem to suggest that men need to cry more.
