Smile! =)
I'd actually typed out this long blog entry already… it was on annoying things around us. It was witty, cutting and cynical… it was also very bitter. Here's an extract....
" Couples who post photos of them 3/4 of the way to home run on their facebook. It just turns up on my news feed, like TOO MUCH INFORMATION. I wonder, do they POSE for the photos? One of them with a camera in hand…
Girl: Oooh wait! Stop there where you're necking me, i should get a shot of this!
Guy: Mmmf...
Girl: okay done… OOH WAIT! Stop there where you're unbuttoning my pants, i should get a shot of this!
Seriously, keep your private life private, none of us need to see you in various pre-sex poses. It just takes conversation to a whole new level of awkward."
After typing it out, i stopped and wondered, when had i gotten so bitter? So upset and unhappy with the world at large. Suddenly, the image of a pair of earrings that a friend had previously given to me flashed into mind…maybe i'll post a photo of it here… if i remember. They say "GLOOMY" and basically, if you're wearing gloomy earrings which actually admit to gloominess, there's only one way your mood can go.
Was i unhappy because i chose to dwell only on the bad stuff? Instead of focusing on the good stuff? The sad thing is, as the term drags on by, smiling faces become more and more rare. Stressed and tired eyes gaze out from the faces of the youth, who no longer exhibit the vibrant energy long attributed to their kind. (that kinda made them sound like animals but hey, i'm not bitter anymore but i can still be bitchy).
Why are we all so sad? Alright, so life's been throwing you lemons and you hate lemonade because they give you hives … but why SO SAD? So just before the exams hit us with all they've got, just before project deadlines hit us with all they've got, lets rally our own forces and forge a defense! =)
Follow me! Get out a piece of paper and start writing…i hope your list differs from mine cos i like to be unique… but here goes!
