Happy (Pico) Life II

Just like what i've said, if there's a happy (pico) life, there is also happy (pico) life II ☺ If you haven't read the first issue, you can always read it anytime. ☺


4 ways to put a smile on someone's face

Surprise, surprise - write a tumblr post about why you think your pal's cool or send a handwritten letter in the mail and resist the urge to spill.
Say it with a song - e-mail an mp3 of a happy song that reminds you of her, or send a youtube link to the song's video with a comment from you mentioning her name.
Dish out a compliment - telling someone she's lost weight, or telling your crush his jokes as always cracks you up is a sencere and heartfelt way to make them feel good about themselves.
Make a mental note - bring up a cute tidbit you picked up from a conversation from far back. *It will you show you pay attention to details, and give importance to what your friend says, no matter how random!*

How to write better stories

Explore - keep your eyes peeled. Inspiration can come from anywhere.
Read - exposing yourself to many writing styles can help you come up with one that's uniquely yours.
Create - once you start writing, just keep going, let all your ideas flow. 
Revise - your first draft doesn't have to be perfect. Start small and don't be afraid to make changes every step of the way.
Proofread - always check your work for possible mistakes in grammar and spelling. It might help if you ask a mentor or a friend to read your work as well.

4 ways to de-clutter your room


Make a "Throw, Keep, Give" pile - seperating your stash into these categories will make organizing so much easier
Sort things out - creating groupings can give a shelf or closet instant visual appeal.
Don't fear disposing - battle your inner pack rat and give yourself a serious talking-to. Have you used the item in the last six months? In the last year? If it's just been sitting in your closet, it's about time you make room for something new.
Make time - rome wasn't built in a day and neither are clean rooms. It took a while for you room to get as messy as it is now, and it's going to take as much time(if not a little more) to get it back in tiptop shape.
