Entry#3-The Happiness Associated with Strawberries and People

Ok, so for your enjoyment (or no one's since I have no followers :( lol) I have a qonderful quote by one of my freinds on facebook. He's a good guy and nice, and I decided to ask him out, but this is another story, one I wish to not display on the internet. Anyway, he set his status as "Have you noticed that the "lol" symbol looks like a drowning guy? I bet he's not laughing out loud." -**** ******. So even though its not a 'good act again' it still made me smile, and isn't that what they all need! So anyway, jump side note. I was going over to my almost wonderful friend Sage's house (indisde joke, she is most wonderful). And we (my mother and I-yes I still live with my mother, it is not pathetic, I'm saving money on rent) stopped at the store so we could buy some supplies for my movie day. We were walking in the fruit section of the store and we saw strawberries. I decided I didn't want them because they were a little expensive. But then I changed my mind. Previously we had seen a lady who worked in the produce section and we asked her to help us pick out a good box of berries. She finally obliged after a short conversation. The good act is that instead of giving us a decent box of strawberries, she opened a few boxes that she had on a cart and then put a box of very splendid strawberries together. My freinds enjoyed them. They were all wonderful and none were bad because she checked them all by hand.

Entry #2-Thing Ping-pong guys/helper guys

Okay, so this every day thing isn't going as well as I thought it would. I know what you're thinking (or maybe if you're not since I have no followers) every day is crazy, so here I am, a couple days late, I've resolved to do it as often as I can, but still provide you with something I have noticed in my life. Okay, here it goes.

Okay so that day I was at a gymnastics meet with my team. Even though this isn't necessary a 'good act' I feel that it is worth acknowledging since it made me smile. So it was after the awards were given out to everyone. And see all the people there were pretty tired by then because we had been there since about 3 pm. So I'm standing on one side of the gym and I look across and there's four guys throwing a ping-pong ball against the wall. And although it seems childish and immature, which in some ways it is, it makes me think that the child that lives in every one of us never really does. No matter how old we get, we can always amuse ourselves in some smallish way.

So yesterday I had to go to work. And don't' get me wrong, I love my job, I get free food every Saturday night after I finish. Well it was after I finished working, almost all the customers had left so this was the time when all the customer remaining come talk to the owner. I had just finished doing something and I turned around. A couple was at the cash register with to my boss. The lady was talking animatedly to her. While she was about to finish up, her husband came up behind with her coat, and helped her into it. I haven't seen anyone do that in a very long time. It shows that he really cares about her. It shows kindness, compassion and consideration. I loved watching that simple act. It showed real love. So that's the good act I observed for Saturday. I hope that you can appreciate the simple act even if I cannot present it to you with much power or emotion.
