Endorphins

Endorphins make us feel good.

Sometimes it is easy to forget that your mental state can easily be affected by physical things such as chemicals in your brain. At the same time this is really obvious. I want to share with my friends some of my favorites ways that you can get happy easily! It's winter and finals so this is especially important. Most you are aware of, but reminders are important in such a fast-paced-information-soaked era (2010!!!).

1. Eat a chilli pepper. Joey can reccomend good varieties. There are many types! Wasabi works too.

2. Have an orgasm. There are many ways to do this, some are stranger than others. I once had a dream where my cousin hit me repeatedly with pillows and this somehow did the trick.

3. Get moved, aka get emotional. You can do this by watching soap operas or thinking about dead family members. You can also watch tales of triumph. I recommend watching sports or listening to Diskovery by Daft Punk.

4. Take MDMA (Don't really- My friend's mom who is a shrink once told me she had a patient that took ecstacy once and it permantly fucked up the serotonin levels in her head and she became clinically depressed. True I dunno... Scary, YES! Which is a good segway...)

5. Do something really scary. Going to that spider gate Quaker cemetery at night is pretty scary. Do it alone and its REALLY scary. You can also pay a friend to break in to your house. Sometimes Gunther ends in my house and cooks soup and watches Bill and Ted's Bogus Adventure. How does he sneak in so well!? If you are protective of your property, an alternative is to have a loved one strangle you. Just don't do it yourself or you will end up like David Caradine or whatever his name is.

6. P SUMMER 0'10 GET BIG!!! Exercise makes you happy too. Pretend you are a samurai or a professional athlete on your home town team for optimal results. Or pretend that you are drafted into the ROTC and have no choice.

7. Eat chocolate! This is the really effeminate one. It's true though. Just don't eat it all the time or you will turn into to this girl I met at Smith who only ate cake. True story.

8. Go into the sun. Like the center of it. Get inside it. I prefer beaches at night anyway. Good Harbour is the best beach in existence.

9. Laugh a lot! Friends can make you laugh sometimes. If you don't have friends, laugh at the misfortune of others or find a place with uneven stairs where people trip and fall a lot. One such area exists in the library's first floor.

Sometimes I think of ways to combine these 9 methods. For example: on a sunny day snort a chili pepper, start rollin' on e, run a half marathon, then dive into a pool of chocolate and have really scary sex with a funny lookin' person.

Do you have any other suggests? Ways to combine these?

  1. Have your father strip you naked and tie you to a chair. Then have him cut you up with a butter knife, spreading chili paste on the wounds. Then have him jerk you off. Laugh while he is doing this.
