I'm not an optimist.. that's actually a complete understatement. I hate people, i hate/dislike my family, I practically have no soul, and I rather that everyone would just die so that there should be no more suffering in the world anymore stare BUT, this is what I say that usually cheers me up
"IT COULD BE WORSE!"
and the special one "don't expect anything" that usually makes my day better, cuz i'm not expecting my day to be good or bad, and all that jazz. Really it works! 3nodding I was at my grandparents for our x-mas dinner ( stare I hate those damn family get-togethers) and last year, was so bad, arghh, my grandpa is soo infuriating, but I'm like "don't expect anything, don't expect anything, don't expect anything" and really, it didn't have that bad of a time (compared to all the others) and then there was this time during chinese new years. The day before was chinese new years,and I had to go to my grandparents house for dinner (by my self!!) and then the next day my mom's like, "oh yes, ur grandpa told me that they forgot to give you your money, so you have to go over to there house later on and pick it up. I'm like, "great, now I gotta go over again" and started getting really pissed, then stopped myself. and I repeated "don't expect anything" 3 times, and you know what happened?? The doorbell rings RIGHT after I said that,and it's my grandpa. my bro answered the door,and I hear him say "oh yes,I forgot to give you kids the money yesterday, so here you go! happy new year" and he was off! neutral
