day 9: pet peeves
open mouth chewing, not saying thank-you when someone holds the door for you, slow drivers, assumptions, saying atm machine and pin number; it’s redundant, when waiters don’t listen and get the order wrong, people who don’t offer to help
It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation

Please stop interrupting/interjecting whenever anyone says something. It’s rude. And annoying.
Thank you.

day 4: the meaning behind your tumblr name
Not sure if this means the name of the page, or the name in the url. Both are Alice in Wonderland references though. “Curiouser and curiouser” in the page heading, is an exclamation of Alice during her journey. “thecheshiresmile” in the url, is in reference to my favorite, the Cheshire Cat, and his infamous grin.
