When a person falls in love, he acts differently.
If you wash your jeans often, the color may fade away.
I feel butterflies in my stomach when I need to speak in front of the public.
Some people can see your future by looking at your palms.
Candlelit dinners at restaurants are usually very expensive.
I love him because he let me feel secure to be with him.
It�s a sweaty job because the boss always walks around.
If I have a steady income, I can plan my future easier.
When a woman is pregnant, the chemicals in the body change. She may get angry easily.
Listening to Mozart�s music can elevate my spirit.
A volunteer is a person who works without getting paid.
When you are nervous, the adrenalin is high.
I made lots of mistakes because I was in a rush to finish it.
All the things are composed by molecules.
