Act Young

Michelle Pfeiffer (52) - Always young and beautiful

You think you are getting older? Don’t worry. Help is on the way. I can give you a list of ways for you “not to act old”.

1. Do not wear shorts and socks together.

2. Do not take pictures of your flowers.

3. Do not be a racist or tell racist jokes.

4. Do not be afraid of porn.

5. Do not listen to the sorry old songs.

6. Do not try to be so chic.

7. Do not say the words “web”, “surfing”, “chatting”, “cyberspace”. Say “I am using Twitter”.

8. Only one pair of glasses at a time.

9. Wear tattered or sagging jeans. (Suggested by a friend)

10. Listen to hip-hop and R&B. (Suggesed by a friend)

11. Use words like 'cool', 'yo', 'dude' more often. (Suggested by a friend)

12. Sleep late and wake up late. (Suggested by a friend)

13. Do not fear the F word.

14. Learn to text with your thumbs.

15. Don’t put your car in cruise control while driving long distance.

17. Don’t give advice to others unless you are asked.

  3. Don't stay at home on weekends. Go out and eat a pizza or a burger and not the usual 'indian food'.

  4. I don't think I have to worry about anything, for I always look young and beautiful. It is all in the mind. To look young you don't have to do anything, just think healthy and be healthy.

  6. I will try to follow it. But I don't wear shorts, don't watch porn and never use F words. Other than that I am 'very' young.

  16. We like to think age is in the mind
    but sadly the physical age is readily visible :)
    Hanging out with young people sure influences our thinking a lot and that reflects in our appearance too/
    That was an interesting post. Pfeiffer was icing on the cake :)
    But gimme Sharon Stone any time :D
