i've never been a big person on taking medicine when i'm sick...i just don't think it really works (plus, i'm hardly ever sick). i think besides like major medication that involves life or death, the best medicine money can buy, can't really be bought. everyone knows that old saying, "laughter is the best medicine," and after a lot of thinking, i definitely agree (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/04/07/health/webmd/main1481492.shtml). i simply LOVE to laugh at anything, anyone, any scene. it's just a great feeling. these past few months, i haven't been doing that great, here in korea. latley, i've been feeling robotic and indifferent about everything going on in my life and i couldn't just quite put my finger on why that was. then, i realized, i don't have many good face to face conversations during the week, let alone since the time i've gotten to korea...and because of those lack of conversations, i realized i was missing laughter. i can't laugh if i don't have anyone to talk to. right? but, this past week, i find myself more joyful and back to my normal happy-go-lucky self due to my TKD class filled with hormone raging, acne faced teenage boys, which only equals a good hearty laugh. the key to solving my abnormal state of life was laughter! korean boys are alllll about trying to humiliate one another in front of girls, so it was just exactly what i needed. i think laughing till you almost cry while on the floor curled into fetal position is one of the best feelings in the world...so, yes, laughter is the best medicine there is. it helped me get outta my funk (for the most part)...please keep me laughing! :)
