Hi!!

Should you say Hi to someone you don't know if that someone say Hi to you? Well, i think you definitely SHOULD!!

A lot of ppl think we chinese are very unfriendly, because we don't simply smile at strangers, or greet ppl if we don't know you. (even we know you but some ppl will still treat you as if you grew up eating glass) But to me, i think we chinese is not unfriendly, we are too protective, protect ourselves from being hurt and protect the skin on our face so that it won't turn red (embarass). we are just TOO SHY!!

Why i say shy? well, i think most of us don't want to smile or say Hi to ppl is because we are afraid that ppl won't say it back. For eg, you smile but the other party didn't smile back and looked at you as if you got something wrong.

I think we should really learn from western ppl, they are very friendly, even they don't know you, they will still greet you and smile at you. Imagine monday morning you are having monday blues, and suddenly when you're walking towards your office, some pretty girls smile at you and say 'GOOD MORNING'!! i bet you will feel much better for the rest of the day!!

So from now on, start smiling to ppl and greet ppl. be more friendly. ok lar, i dont' mean to ask you smile non stop lar, later kena tangkap to tanjung rambutan then don't come and blame me!! :p

smile :) :) :)
