APAD:"A day without laughter is a day wasted"


A day without laughter is a day wasted”, coined by Charlie Chaplin, is a famous saying that means laughter is an accessible medicine and we should not forget to laugh and live happily.

"When you laugh, you change and when you change, the whole world changes around you and it turns magical. We all are just like magicians, if we look at someone with a smile, we take away their agonies and work our magic on them by giving them a reason to smile back."

Yes, laughter is a wonderful thing enjoyed by all, so the more the merrier.  Below are some funny quotes I found online this morning:

“Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes.”
Jack Handey

“Truth hurts. Maybe not as much as jumping on a bicycle with a seat missing, but it hurts.”
Lt. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen), Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear

“I’m not superstitious, but I am a little stitious.”
Michael Scott (Steve Carrell), The Office

Two below were from Anonymous:
“Light travels faster than sound. That’s why most people seem bright until you hear them speak”
“There is one word that describes people that don't like me: Irrelevant.”

Plus one by myself made a few days ago in APAD (Note the event did happen when our American English teacher Stephen arranged a game between students in his E-class):
"that baseball run was a race between running me and the ball - who fell down faster, and I won." 哈哈

Wish you all a happy Tuesday and not too busy at work.
