Researchers at Anglia Ruskin University in the UK say they have determined that taking part in what they call “Creating Arts and Crafting” activities results in increased life satisfaction, a greater sense that life is worthwhile, and higher levels of happiness. And perhaps surprisingly, the positive effects of participating in creative activities were more apparent than the benefits from other well-known positive factors — such as age, gender, health, and employment status. In other words, regardless of your life circumstances, picking up a paintbrush or a pair of knitting needles could give your mood a big boost!

A new survey shows that consumers are taking special care of their cars – so they won’t need to buy a new one anytime soon! The study, by Talker Research found that 73% of car owners have made the decision to better maintain their old vehicles due to rising costs.

HOLLYWOOD FICTION:
Reddit asked users about things that happen in Film that would not happen in real life. Here are some awesome responses…

☞ “ I drive to see someone and there is always a parking space right in front of the building.”

☞ “I am a person driving a car in a film. I rarely look at the road because it’s more important that I face the person in the passenger seat, and weirdly nobody else thinks that is really (freaking) dangerous.”

☞ “I’m a hacker in a Hollywood blockbuster. I don’t use any particular hacking software or know anything about how it’s actually done. All I need to do is type some random code on my keyboard and I’m in the mainframe.”

☞ “ I’m a teacher in a film and the bell always rings just as I’m summing up the lesson so I just shout that I want your test papers on my desk by Thursday morning.”

☞ “ I am a person having a shower or bath in a film. I never wash my body because I am too busy conveying my emotional state.”

☞ “I am a person in a movie who goes into a bar and orders a ‘beer’ and the bartender immediately serves me one without ever asking what type of beer or brand.”

☞ “. I’m a beautiful heroine staying one step ahead of the zombies. It’s been weeks, and my hair and makeup are all perfect, even if my clothes are torn, showing just enough skin.”

“ I’m a bad guy in a film., and when I put a USB stick in anything I get it the right way round first time, every time.
