I can’t smile when I don’t want to, I simply can’t. Not even for photos. I can’t sport fake smiles myself and hate those who wear them all the time. Yeah, I know it’s good to be happy and all, but I just don’t like fake smiles. Smiling to spread cheer is ok; you do that a bit from the heart, but when you smile to get something from others, its plain mean. I’ve seen people who support fake smiles not to show people they’re sad. That’s ok I suppose, but I hate it when they’re used. I know a girl who smiles back at everyone as if she’s happy to see them; but goes and bitches about them later. I can’t smile when I don’t want to, but I can’t until I’m really happy ,or I end up twisting my mouth in a funny way; so I usually resort to keeping my face normal. But when a smile comes from my heart, it forms nicely on my face and doesn’t look awkward at all… I just look…happy.

I can’t fake smiles, but when I’m happy inside, the smile sneaks out itself so the whole world can see it. I smile at the dumbest things in the universe and laugh when they get dumber. Insane jokes make me roar with laughter, and then, I can’t stop it. Something blooms up inside me and I can’t contain it, I feel as if I’ve achieved everything I wanted and there’s nothing to do and nowhere to go. I get this weird feeling, I feel I’m floating. This happened to me on Sunday, when I spent the whole day watching “avatar”, a show I love and I just warmed up. Then I read my favorite book, HIS DARK MATERIALS and I was so happy I was flying. Ok, these aren’t really big things to be happy at, but it’s the way I am. Lots of dumb and normal things make me smile from inside, like rain, a rainbow, a strong breeze that chills me to the bones, a sunset, the beach at night, a full moon, seeing someone I love happy ,a cute baby, lots of things. I can’t understand why I can’t smile when I want to, like when I see a person after a long time, I want to smile at him as he smiles at me, but I can’t. I look mean.

Actually, I can’t do anything when I’m not in the mood to. I can’t study, or play, or do anything. Its irritating when I need to study but I can’t put my mind to it. I’m plain impulsive, I can’t do anything until I feel for it. Some people say its good, because when I put my mind to something, I don’t stop until I finish it. I don’t know; I sometimes end up not finishing projects and homeworks on time because of this.
