LAG... Haha that's what my posts seem to doing huh. :S Well lately i dint have much to write about. Went out with quite a few friends, played a little tennis(uneven tan! :@), ran with my daddy... Lol.
Ohh i've been watching quite alot of discovery and nat geo lately! :D Watched stuff like taboo and most evil. Cool shit! Haha.
I have developed a fascination about cults and their charismatic leaders lately. Like Charles Manson and Jim Jones. They are horribly evil, yet you cant help but marvel at their immense power over others. Imagine being able to see everyone's weakness and use it to control them, or to have so much influence on your 900 followers that they'll willingly ingest cyanide just with one order of yours, or just having followers at that! But power corrupts, and cult leaders usually go kinda kuku towards the end. :S
Charisma is often used to describe an elusive, even undefinable personality trait that often includes the seemingly 'supernatural' or uncanny ability to lead, charm, persuade, inspire, and/or influence people.
Wow. Charisma is a talent huh. Haha people usually use that word to categorize attractive people who have no outstanding feature. Like, haven't you heard someone go, "He's not that hot, but i like him... *pauses as she tries to think of a logical explanation of why she does...* OH. He's charismatic!" Hahaha i've been guilty of using the word too broadly as well (not in the context of my rather bimbotic example laa) so i guess we all learn something new everyday! :D
