How to cheer urself up when ure in a depressing mood

Imagine waking up one morning oblivious towards your surrounding and bam!something or someone suddenly awakens your cranky self instead..your whole day can only go from bad to worst from that point..you suddenly noticed that a new zit on your face, the result for your maths test is out n u performed not as well as you expected, got an email from regarding ur latest phone bill(money!!) and to top it all off, u cant reach ur dad or ur mum on skype cs it's still v early morning in Bahrain(cs of the frigging 9 hr difference from Auckland) which translates to no one answering your call..you're basically miserable..well,today is THAT day for lil ol' me..I figured rather than sulking and staying in this mood ill write a list of 10 things i can do 2 cheer myself up,so here goes:

1. Sleep...sleep is the easiest way to forget(even for a few minutes) that you were in a foul mood in the 1st place..when i wake up, i feel better..i would recommend a nap for any of you having a shitty day

2.Watch an episode of Friends on youtube...even if season 10 of friends ended like, 4 years ago,it never fails to crack me up..like the theme song by the Rembrandts "i'll be there for you"..the sitcom is always there for you especially in ur moment of need

3. Have a bite of chocolate..i dunno whether it is the caffein in it or it's something about chocolate that provides a sense of comfort to you when you're savouring that little thing in your mouth..but i do know chocolate is a life-saver when ure in the "crouching tiger,hidden tiger"
mode

4. Gossip with your girlfriends..girls have this really bad habit of talking A LOT with each other about other people or about them but it's certainly a great way to forget about your problems(your initial shitty mood) and laugh out loud with your besties

5. Read a mills and boon...people might say it's lame to read romance novels especially those mills and boon, but lemme tell you guys..those books are like drugs for happy ending suckers like me..each one of them always have ppl getting married or hving a baby = happy ending!..it's a bit idealistic but hey,we can always dream right?

6. Cook for others...even when you prepare a simple dish, you'll always feel this satisfaction when it's finished and ready to be served on the table..it'll be even more sweeter when you see people digging themselves into the food..that feeling is indescribable.

7. Eat ice cream..it's a guaranteed spirit lifter for any people,anywhere any age

8. Tidy ur room..this may seem like a weird suggestion, cleaning up when u dnt feel gud..but it proved to be a sure winner i.e ull feel that ull be able to breath or think when u see everything in your room is in order.

9. Stop and ponder your thoughts for a sec...ull be able to analyze why ure in a bad mood in the 1st place and it'll help you realize that the thing that bothers you to begin with is petty and lame

10. Pray to Allah..you'll feel more secure knowing that a higher power is always there for you,listening to you and providing the tranquility you need to overcome the unpleasant feeling you have

owh n yeah,write a blog about it!hehehe..it certainly works for me..

hmmm.. syaque, what if, the 'bad day' happens during Ramadhan. When u wake up, you got all those shitty things happen, and u tried to sleep, but then you haf test coming up later in the afternoon. u want something to bite, but its fasting period. You wanna cook, but class is starting in half an hour. and so you cant read novels as well. so how? other than praying??
