Normal lang may CRUSH. Ang crush ay parte sa buhay natin. Dito nagsisimula ang pagibig sa isa't isa. Sabi nila, ang walang crush abnormal. Pero, totoo ata e kasi lahat naman tayo may puso hindi lang ang saging. Karamihan sa atin may crush na celebrity, classmate, friend o kaya naman stranger. Kahit walang pag-asa, push lang. Yan ang problema sa atin. Kung may crush ka, basahin mo to. I'm sure makakarelate ka. ENJOY!
