Hey, gorgeous! No, don't look behind you. Yes, I am talking to you! How was your day today? Alright? That's great! How was mine? Well, thanks for asking! I had an awesome day today. Nothing abnormally special happened that made this day so great. However, my boyfriend brought me a bouquet of roses, I won the lottery, my long-lost best friend who I thought had died in a plane crash contacted me, and I was treated like a movie star. Just kidding! I don't have a boyfriend–although the guy I like smiled at me; I didn't win the lottery–although I feel like I did 'cause I have the best friends and family ever (Wow, that was really cheesy. I apologize.); my long-lost friend didn't contact me–although I did talk to my friend who just got back from Hong Kong; and I wasn't treated like Jennifer Lawrence (aka Katniss Everdeen. For you losers who don't know what The Hunger Games is... go look it up.)–although I did look pretty darn awesome today, not to be self-centered or anything. So I had an overall great day today and I just had to share it with you. For some reason, I just feel like smiling right now, and singing too (very badly, I might add. Which might be why my dog is staring at me...).
In drama class today, Kelly (my amazing drama teacher) had us tell the people next to us in the circle positive things about their personality and what impact they might have on the world. It was a really great exercise for us because we got to compliment our peers and hear good things about ourselves. It also inspired me to be more complimentary and positive towards other people outside of drama class. I learned that making someone else feel good, makes you feel good about yourself too. So go out there and make someones day a little happier! Tell the cashier at the grocery store that they look good in that unflattering apron they have to wear, or comment on how nice your receptionist's hair looks that day, or tell your grandmother how awesome her baking skills are. And give her a big hug too. Just compliment someone at least once a day, or more. Because if you believe in karma and you are nice to people 24/7 that means you'll get like a yacht and and a big house by the sea or something. Just joking, it isn't about money. Well, sometimes it is. But most of the time it isn't! Please, just be kind to one another! Sincerely, Sam
