It's All About Looks Baby!

Ever look in a mirror one day, after being complimented by your significant other, or any person from the opposite gender, or even same gender (heck! I'd be flattered if a 3 year old told me I was pretty), and find an extremely good looking person smiling back at you? On that same day.. you will go out on the street and find people looking at you and deep inside you know they see it too, so you glance back knowingly and continue floating your way..

Then come that day, when you look at the mirror in the morning, and find that ugly pimple or zit and your self image plummets to the seventh underworld, where the heat makes it even worse.. Ironically, this won't happen unless you've had a quarrel with your man/woman who thinks you were a big mistake and maybe you two are just not right, of course there are other occasions where you'd get them, like the pre-photo shoot zit, and the I've got a big presentation at work tomorrow oozing white-head, but we'll touch on those a bit later..

Now that would just bring us to the whole egg or hen first dilemma! Is the way I am feeling affecting the way I look, or is the way I am feeling affecting the way I see myself and somehow, how people see me? You know, scientifically, images and colors do not really exist, they're just light reflections that our corneas interpret the way they like.. So in an abstract sense, I wonder if what we see is actually true, and no I am not going into the whole matrix conspiracy theory, but I am wondering really... What are looks and what makes pretty or ugly!

I remember once too often, at first look someone might seem extremely normal looking or even boarding on ugly.. Then somehow, after knowing him/her their image changes in your head, into a really pretty person. I hate to gossip about people (who am I kidding!!!! hehehehe) but let me direct your attention to SATC star, Sarah Jessica Parker. I used to think she is normal looking and really unattractive, and "what's all the fuss about". Then after seeing the show, I really think of her as one of the most beautiful women in show business. This has lead me to believe that our looks are not viewed objectively. As often, we associate feelings/attitudes with looks and end up with a final image which constitutes how we view people, or even ourselves. Perhaps, this explains that while all people agree that roses are pretty, they don't all agree that x person is, and despite the fact that all current standards of beauty are being secretly decided by plastic surgeons in their annual secret "Lets Make All People Look Alike" conference, we still view human beauty outside those limited boundaries.

Hey! You know what, I've been too busy writing, I didn't notice how pretty you look today! Maaan, I am so blessed with pretty and handsome readers and "readerettes"! OK that's it! Run now to the mirror and tell me how you look! See! Told you..

Before I leave you, I remembered an image I got by email a long time ago. I am pretty sure you've all seen it, but it fits perfectly here

Ho Ho Ho.. Guess who finally decided to blog!

Am sure you're wondering about the triple H upthere and thinking, she must be a foreigner living in Saudi.. Not really.. and I don't celebrate christmas but I am keeping with the spirit of the season.. It's kind of hard to escape. I still remember a cartoon I watched when I was young, with Disney's Chip and Dale (before they became adventurers.. yea am that old :P), it just brings really nice memories that I have linked in my mind with the season.. Aaahhh.. if only I were a child again!

*shakes her head.. and focuses on this post*

I don't know why I decided to blog, but here are potential reasons:

1- I am utterly bored.

2- I am chronically stressed.

3- I have bottled feelings.

4- I ran into a blog that I liked today, and the competitive side of me said "I could do better!", then the cynical part of me said "Yea, right!", then all the other voices in my head started to argue about the whole matter and I decided to shut them up and start typing.

Whatever the reason, here I am typing away with perfect ease. Now don't be too surprised if you check in here every now and then and you only find this one blog.. I am just like that, inconsitent with everything i do.. Something I believe that has lead to many disappointments in my life, but lets not go there now.. I don't want to scare you away... Yet!

Ok.. so what do people talk about in blogs? Hmmm.. daily activities? I don't think so, since I slept till noon and did nothing that I can write about the whole day "unless you'd be interested to know that I did too brush my teeth :D*"... So what else do people write about? Ahh yeaa my great life! "Haahahahahahahahahahahahahaha" Ehm, am sorry, those were the voices in my head again.. Hey I know.. maybe I should talk about the name of my blog!

I know you may think am a drug addict or something, but that's not true, I never tried a thing in my life.. "Hahahahahahahahahahahahah..."
"HEY, SHUT UP and let me talk!"
Ehm,,, so where was I? Yea.. the name of my blog.. I guess that came from that fact that.. I love to sleep and subsequently, I love to dream.. and also.. am fascinated by anything 60's.. and hence the name came..

And since we've established that, lets face it, I don't really have much of a life to talk about, I think am gonna restrict this to my thoughts and ideas.. They may seem crazy at times, but I will do my best to provide an enjoyable read to those who seek fun on the internet.. I know those long office hours can be so boring.. so this is my part in trying to make work a better place for you all..

Alrighty.. I guess that serves as a nice intro.. I will be checking in later.. Till then.. Peace!
