Spread a Smile :-)

Last week we performed at a charity show. This experience, the thought before it made me realise something.

A smile is said to be contagious. Therefore bringing a smile upon the faces that may not be smiling gives utmost satisfaction. Charitable work and even being a comedian can be some of the most rewarding things. One cannot be fully satisfied with oneself, therefore why not give satisfaction to others from which you can be satisfied yourself.

The satisfaction that one can feel most content with is the sense of achievement. A huge sense of achievement comes when there is a positive response from others. The best sort of positive encouragement that people can get are smiles. Therefore us spreading a smile, by smiling ourselves and bringing smiles to others faces by whatever means there may be, is the best way of being totally satisfied!

A smile is a very natural thing, which doesn't need anything but heart and soul to it. A true smile shines, no matter what. The perfect smile does not come with someone with perfect teeth, but indeed just someone with heart and soul behind it.

A smile is just a frown turned upside down! Keep Smiling!!! :-)

Bang!

A funny incident happened when I was reading Harry Potter. In a bid not to spoil the story for those who haven't read the book yet, I won't mention what part I was reading but here is what happened.

I was reading a really suspense filled part of the book. Eating my lunch without knowing what I was eating, all my focus was on the story. What was going to happen next I did not know. Just as I reached the part where what happened was going to be revealed. Bang!!!!!

A lady with a pram hit my chair! I jumped from my seat atleast 2 feet in the air. The book shut closed and the page was lost. The lady appologised by saying, "sorry" and then as quietly as possible was found to be laughing at this sight. Aaaahhh.... Embarassment to the core! Not only was the lady laughing, but all those nearby shared a hearty laugh. But nevertheless none of this stopped me and I was back reading the book, after finally discovering the page I left off at. LOL!

p.s This book seems to be as promising as the fourth! Thus far (after 17 chapters of reading) the book is going good.

Photography

This is another passion of mine.

So what makes a good photograph?

• The camera plays a major part, but a good photographer can take great pics with any camera.


• The angles are the key ingredient, angles make or break a photograph, whether it be abstract or your standard photo.


• Lighting is another very important element of photography. For example when taking pictures of people, light in all the right places, makes a huge deal of difference!


• Focus on the subject, whatever the subject may be it is important that the focus be only on that, with the surrounding just used to enhance it.

These are just a few very important aspects of photography. Those who take photographs either have the talent or don't. People who can see beauty in things that may look normal to others are the true photographers or artists. Overall beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but a photograph taken in all the right ways, can make the majority be the beholder!

Performance Accolades

On the weekend I had a dance performance. We just danced to one number, something recycled from a few years back. But no doubt this dance was one of the fastest ones I have choreographed. There seemed to be widespread appreciation for our performance.

The things that make a performer truly feel like they have done a good job are:

1. Self-satisfaction
2. Praise that seems genuine from other performers in the same or related area
3. Praise from the audience, where there are people who truly appreciate the type of performance.
4. People saying that the art form or what ever is performed should be pursued as a career.
5. People genuinely being upset for having missed out on the performance.

Surprisingly despite No1 being met, all the other criteria for our performance being a success were true! So the result from this, is a result from a suggestion of a fellow performer from interstate. I am going to start a dance school of my own, as well as a website (in the near future) for it. On that day and the subsequent day itself there were 5 people ready to join! So lets see how it goes! Here comes a step up in something I'm really passionate about! :-) I'm looking or rather thinking of possible names. If anyone has any suggestions, please do let me know!

Who wants to be a millionaire?!?!?

The text in pink, is the article... The text in the normal colour is the mail from a family member of mine! Just goes to show being a millionaire just requires a little bit of enterprising and nothing more! ;)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh ho! Someone has been closely watching me !

Do you all remember my swiftness & deftness in swatting flies (of course how could you forget that class in executing the skill) that you were suggesting that I start a fly-swatting business? (not a business where I would swat flies)

My idea of becoming a Human fly swatting machine has made another man a multi-millionaire.

Read on for today's news...

Making millions from swatting flies

Kung-fu master Hu Shulin has turned a life-long battle against flies and the diseases they carry into a multi-million dollar business.

Mr Hu spends his days literally swatting flies — sometimes up to five at a time — using his lightning-fast reflexes at the Yu Yao meat market in Shanghai in China.

click here to see Mr Hu in action!

When I was about 8 or so, one summer afternoon, when it was always the ripe time for the world's best inventions to spring up on my scientific mind, there I was tired of flies, flies & flies. I thought up an idea. I thought of honey on a piece of paper & when the fly got attracted & sat on and for its treat, it would be neatly transported to heaven by me while it was still immersed in the dizzying nectar. Since I could not lay my hands on honey (as it was not a regular in our pantry), I had to think up of something that would interest the fly as well as hold the fly down sternly. I mixed sugar and glue (though I felt the smell of glue would deter the flies swarming for the concoction) and lay it on a piece of paper. I did end up getting 4 or 5 flies on my sheet of fate.

Not happy simply to conduct a one-man war against this pest, Mr Hu is now making a fortune from the fly slaying machine he designed.

The machine, which was six months in the making, is a slowly rotating tube of sugar and water that attracts the flies at one end and then deposits them into a clear plastic tank.
"It's like a nightclub for flies," said Mr Hu. "They just party themselves to death."
Mr Hu's factory makes 100,000 'Highly Effective Fly Slaying Machines' a year, that are exported to South Korea.

But one thing that I did not do was to hang on to the dead flies.

But this unlikely millionaire isn't about to forget the source of his wealth.
Mr Hu keeps his victims corpses — all 30 million of them— in a large bag in his office.

The credit is entirely Mr Hu's - for the idea of keeping the corpses of the victims.

Natyam

Seeing the name of my blog you would expect to see at least one post on dance. So here comes the first.

Dance & Music are two things which can really reach a person's soul. They are expressions of feelings which convey so much in the most discrete way possible. When I dance I feel like I have been carried away to another world without any worries. The feeling is unbelievable.

Dancing has components of many things such as yoga, acting, exercise, of course music and the list goes on. It is an art form that is so diverse and able to incorporate everything within it. Any type of dance can be performed to any type of music. Especially classical dances.

Classical dancing I feel is a step up from all other dance forms. It has complexities that other dance forms do not have. It requires official training and of course like any other dance form, natural grace and talent. It is the ability to expression any emotion that makes dance special, the factor which differentiates it from other art forms is that it is a dynamic representation of expression.

Those who dance and have found their passion for it are those who will truly enjoy doing it. I must not forget those who enjoy watching it even if they cannot dance, it is one thing to perform and enjoy and another thing to watch and enjoy. Both are blessings that we have recieved.

It is the finer things which makes life more enjoyable even in the toughest times.
