The Power Of A Smile

The Power Of A Smile


A smile is a beautiful thing. 

When we smile, something inside us lights up. Have you noticed those who are generous with their smiles have that light of joy and love reflected on their face? 

You just loved looking at them without knowing why. 

They have this certain charm you cannot explain and radiate this positive energy that makes you want to be near them. 

We all know that wonderful feeling when someone looked into our eyes and smiles at us. 

It's like, somebody actually notices and acknowledges us. 

Isn't it amazing how something seemingly insignificant like a smile can make someone's day? 

I love the smile or a grin on someone's face, especially children when they are genuinely excited and happy to see you. There is so much love and joy in that. 

Smiling Makes You More Attractive


This is very true and research has proved that. 

We find people are more attractive when they smiled. Smiling also makes you more dateable.

There was this book on body language I read some time ago where they conducted an experiment on body language. 

2 girls with the exact physical attributes (hair, clothes, etc) were stranded on the roadside with a stalled car. Nobody stops to help the first girl compared to the second girl where within minutes of standing at the roadside, people stop and offered help. 

The researchers played the video and discovered that the second girl has more open body language and lo and behold, she was smiling at passers-by. 

Compared to the first girl who was crossing her hands in front of her and was frowning.

I myself find those who smile are more attractive and approachable. The first thing that attracts me is someone's smile. 

I love it when someone smiles and their eyes crinkle when they do that. 

Have you not heard the phrase how someone falls in love with your smile? I might not have a perfect set or the whitest of teeth but it is my smile that attracts them. 

Smiling makes you look younger. I'm always all smiley, no wonder people couldn't guess my real age. Lols. 

Anyway, I also find that I get treated differently and nicer when I smiled at salesperson/front desk persons/waitresses/waiters or every person I met in my daily life. 

There was this one time I did a social experiment.

We were at this eatery and I smiled at the waiter who took our order, smiled, and said thank you when he came with our food and drinks. He remembers me till this day. 

But then only a genuine smile does the trick. constantly smiling for no reason...is creepy and fake smiling is FAKE. 

Smile and laugh every day that it becomes a part of who you are. Smile at yourself, at your loved ones, at a stranger. Spread some love, joy, and inspiration today.

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus.  Tunggulah 2 bulan kemudian langsung tak nampak batang hidung ataupun buttcheeks. Eh? Sebenarnya salah satu benda Cik Panda nak cerita pasal butt cheeks. Butt cheeks are absolutely NO NO except at the pool or beach when you are in your swimsuit.  Cik Panda tak jealous la uols sebab Cik Panda tak hingin pun nak ada bontot yang jelly welly tu.

Manusia Dua Alam

  Pernah jumpa tak manusia yang indah khabar dari rupa? Ataupun manusia yang dalam sosial media adalah seseorang yang sangat menarik hidupnya, melancong sana sini, kelihatan peramah dengan cerita-cerita pasal orang sekeliling dia tapi dalam kehidupan sebenar, agak sendu dan krik krik? Pernah kan? Inilah manusia dua alam dimana alam maya dan alam realiti dia berbeza umpama langit dan bumi. Ada seorang manusia ni, kita namakan dia XX (bukan nama sebenar). XX ni sering update cerita panjang lebar dalam sosial media dia. Satu gambar dia upload selalu disertakan dengan karangan 2 mukasurat.  Ada sekali dia upload gambar makanan yang diberikan rakan sekerja dia. Mulalah karangan 2 muka surat dia menceritakan mak si anu masak makanan lebih sikit untuk dia, si polan pun bagi makanan. Betapa murahnya rezeki dia dan bertuah dikelilingi kawan-kawan yang baik dan thoughtful. Wahhh kemain. Tapi dalam alam realiti, dia manusia berperangai pelik dan tidak boleh difahami. K...

Inferno Panic

Last night, Joel, Anne and i was chatting in the house when we smell something burning. We looked everywhere for the source of the smell until i saw smoke coming out of the main switchboard.  First it was only smoke, then little flame. Before long, the fire got bigger! Smoke fill the house and it smell of burning plastic and rubber. We panic and run out of the house. Knocked on neighbour's door to ask if they have fire extinguisher while Anne and I trying to think who to call for help. We wanted to call bomba but didn't know the number! In that moment of panic, we forgot that it's 999. So we call friends asking for bomba's number. Anne called her friend and the first thing her friend said "Anne! Save your laptop and your thesis!"  Only post-grad students understand this. Thesis and our research is more valuable than your IC or money or thousand dollar phone because only we know how difficult, how important our thesis is. Its a lifetime effort and hard...

Amazing Swimming Pools

I am a Pisces and "pisces" in Latin means fish. Pisces love to swim. So that explains my strong affinity for water. Just like a fish, i find water to be calming and soothing. Recently i've began to swim regularly after so long. Not only it is a good exercise, it releases stress and is extremely calming. I've read somewhere that water is a good medium to buffer and absorb all your negative energy and emotions. Two in one eh? I've developed obsession over swimming pools recently. Why i always seems to have obsession lately is beyond me. The nicest pool i've been to so far was this pool with an amazing view of Petronas Twin Tower. Perfect for a night swim as it was quiet and the pool is heated. Macam infinity pool tapi tidak juga.   Infinity pools are the nicest! Jom cuci mata sambil berangan ada pool macam ni... Ooh that's super nice. Perfect for a night swim. This is a pool in Bali. So calming. Next trip perhaps? ...
