Top 20 ways to get smarter

  1. Play games involving words. E.g: crossword puzzle/scrabble (my favorite game ever!) /scramble, 4pics1word (any other apps also can) 
  2. Play video games 
  3. Read or watch news (don’t just watch tv3 news for God sake) 
  4. Eat dark choc, berries and yogurt (Yummy!) 
  5. Drink a lot of plain water and coffee (Thank God I’m coffee addicted) 
  6. Sleep-a-lot (But please don’t sleep in your workplace) 
  7. Take a look at the green plants sometimes or go out and do outdoor activities like jungle tracking instead of going to the mall every week.  
  8. Turn off your Smartphone sometimes, logout fb/ twitter, don’t check your email for every half an hour. Enjoy real life.
  9. Read at least one book a week.
  10. Travel and go see other places!
  11. Learn another language
  12. Play an instrument ( I can’t play guitar L )
  13. Write using your hand instead typing using your keyboard or touch screen
  14. Listen to music
  15. Do exercise regularly/ yoga/ dancing/ taekwondo
  16. Write your thinking on blogs or Twitter (Twitter is always the best way to argue with others which have a more interesting theory compare to people on FB)
  17. Spend some times in the kitchen making your own meal or baking (I’m not sure if making instant noodle aka Maggi count)
  18. Visit art gallery (Devianart also can ha?)
  19. Build a ‘memory place’
  20. Follow some inspirational people on Twitter.

How to be Forever Alone 101


Being alone is like being a single. It’s an option and it’s your choice. Well, maybe not. But here are the simplest lesson ever (you don’t even have to practice it!) I want to share since I’m the ‘Mother of Forever Alone’ :
  1. Find work or apply place to further your study far away from your hometown and your family (if you got the offer, then you’re lucky)
  2.  Don’t keep in touch or call your family and friends, wait until they call/message/whatsapp you first (unless you’ve something important)
  3. Find some issues to start a fight and make your best friends hate you
  4. Stay away from social activities.
  5.  Avoid interaction or conversations with strangers.
  6. Rent a room and make sure your housemates are different race/gender with you or not friendly
  7. Be a mean person, so that everyone hates you (maybe this is too much)

If you follow all these steps...Congratulation! You’re now me. :D
