Grown-ups are weird

Last Friday my boss gave everyone a desktop Jelly Belly dispenser machine toy, with real Jelly beans contained.

Generally speaking, Jelly beans taste disgusting. Yesterday, I had one which tastes like red pepper, another tastes like peanut butter…yuck. It reminds me a famous quote from Forrest Gump - ‘life is like a box of chocolate…’

You may not imagine that a brown jelly bean will taste like peanut butter instead of chocolate, but once you realize it, you will be more careful next time when choosing the candies.

It is just like how we are choosing friends and even intimated partner(s). When you are young, we have guts to take adventures, you could still stand a flamy red color jelly bean which tastes spicy instead of strawberry sweet, but when you keep growing up, your expectation will be higher, you will no longer accept something awful and strive to improve the situation, then you will give up jelly belly and then embrace See's candy.

So far I still stand the jelly beans because they could still give me surprise; I just took one pink color with bubble gum taste.

Last night I saw ‘Taken’ in Pearl, that little girl Ellie with 1/4 blood from Alien said, ‘Grown-ups are weird.’
