Is it Fashionable to smile?? :/

The other day i was travelling home from work, and of course living in london this almost always involves taking the tube. It wasn't until this time that i realised how miserable everyone looks, and the same can be said for me. Travelling home late after work, on your own, knowing you have to cook tea and finish your uni work when you get back, why should i smile?

Normally on the tube 50-60% of people have headphones in, and those who don't are normally reading, and the few that are left are sleeping. So ok Sleeping excused, why can't we smile will reading? or more importantly why can't we smile when listening to our music? Surely music is supposed to bring happiness and joy to those who are listening, as long as you aren't listening to someone depressing. As everyone know it takes less muscles to smile than it does to frown, so again why shouldn't we! All it takes is one person, one person to smile, and like a yawn, smiles can be contagious. You could be the one to start that. :)

There could be a number of reasons why people choose not to smile, at home everyone is normally smiling, well sort of. Moving to London all you see is rushing people, with headphones in and blank expression. But before you know it you become one of them, you are sucked into that way of life without even wanting to be. No matter how early you leave for work or uni etc etc you still end up rushing, climbing the escalator instead of standing on the shitting right hand side! What ever happened to walking i don't know! London people i think are just lazy, well a hefty percentage of them. That is evident in the bus i have to catch that feels the need to stop every 100 metres!! If people just slowed down, and smiled every now and then would london be a better place to live? Who knows, but you still have to love our beautiful city with or without smiling faces, because this is all made up when you see your friends faces! At least someone is happy to see you!

Maybe the models of the catwalk could try a smile every now and then, are real people that expressionless? saying that are real people that tall and thin, i guess not.

Smiling should be fashionable!
