Day #21: Five ways to win your heart (30 Day Writing Challenge)

I'm not kidding. This is a legitimate prompt from the writing challenge I am referring to. haha. Truthfully, I have intentionally tried to avoid this prompt because I don't really like to write about things that are related to love or romantic feelings. I actually don't know why actually. I just don't like lol. But then, as I am approaching the end of my writing challenge (9 more days!), I guess I eventually realize that I won't always be able to write within my comfort zone so I thought maybe I could use a challenging topic to write about.

Buuuttt, now that I'm thinking about it, this prompt may not actually be related to 'winning my heart so that I would fall in love with you' kind of prompt. Haha ^^;

SO, guess I would still be writing within my comfort zone after all!

I guess the very first way to win my heart is a great command of the English language, be it the written or spoken form. I am always constantly seeking to improve my English so I tend to gravitate towards the well-written stories and the incredibly eloquent English speakers. I keep getting comments that my vocabulary are too profound for them so I really scratch my head whenever they say that. I thought some of the words and phrases I use are pretty standard in nature. haha.

The second way would be, I guess, a kind and genuine smile. Life can be incredibly hectic nowadays. As you grow older, you get swamped with responsibilities, be it whether from life, work or school. So it's always great to see someone with an unrestrained smile to uplift your mood :)

The next one would be for a person to be well-informed of current affairs and an interest in history in general. It's always great to talk with someone who knows a lot about past and current events, and even have some opinions regarding those matters. I get to learn something I've never heard of before so in a way, this has become an avenue to learn something new and gain knowledge.

Humility and modesty would be the fourth way to win my heart. Sometimes, I wonder why it's so hard for some celebrities to stay grounded. It's like once they get praised more frequently, they let it all rush to their head and get complacent and arrogant as a result. I find it sickening. So, it always put a smile on my face when I see people behave with such modesty and humility.

The last one...hmmm...I am thinking...maybe delicious food and ice cream? XD Especially when I receive them for free. Haha.
