Smiles All Around!

"I want to be remembered as the girl that always smiles even when her heart is broken. And the one that could always brighten your day even when she couldn't brighten up her own."

After Erica finished reading that from her obsession (aka Pinterest), the first thing Mateja said was "hey, that's Amanda!"

WELL GWARSH! I nearly cried. Alright, alright, let's be honest with ourselves - I might have, maybe, could have teared up a little bit. But that shouldn't shock you guys. I'm a cry baby.

But I digress.

But honestly, that was the highlight of my day! Everyone has a certain "kind" of person that they strive to be. The ultimate happy person? That's mine! I want to be the person that when people mention my name, they say "she never stops smiling!" There are just so many great things in this world to be happy about, why not give everyone a little reminder by showing those pearly whites!

So yeah, it's my own personal goal to brighten someone's day, every day. It's the greatest feeling to make someone smile, and it's even better when they laugh. (That's why I've decided that if I'm going to start referring to people by their names if they are wearing a name tag. It makes them feel special! But again, I digress...) So the fact that someone noticed was so... I don't know, gratifying? Of course, she didn't know that I work so hard to be that girl. It was just one of those moments where I heard exactly what I needed to hear.

Now smile!

Yeahhh, the corners of your mouth are twitching, you know they are. Oh, oh! Almost there. C'mon, you know you want to. Ah! There it is! There's the smile I was looking for :)
