identify 100 things that make me happy (besides money)

“messy bed, messy head”- this a a line from the break up book meg lent me. it’s where the guy asks his friend what their favourite phrase or soem thign is and his pal says this. and it’s so true! messy bedroom DOES lead to mental anguish and lack of concentration! i love a goooood clean room. it makes me feel so much better about things. thats why today is devoted half to room cleaning and half to book reports. its already 1/4 clean and i feel so much better already. CLEAN ROOMS ARE GREAT! and so calming

i really love good parents. when i see parents talking nicely or being firm but positive with their children it makes me so happy. i love it when i see parents trying to teach their kids things about the world, whether they be small or large. i love it when they teach their kids to be compassionate and kind. it really makes me feel so happy! i’m glad that i was raised by fantastic parents and maybe if i have kids one day, i’ll be a great mother for them. its so important.

opening a new tube of toothpaste. its so nice. you’ve spent days squeeeeeeeeeeezing the very ends of the paste from the old tube, in and effort not to be waste full and to save money. but then it was throw away, empty. now THIS morning sitting in your drawer is a nice new full tube of pastey mintiness, ripe and ready to be sqeezed. it really makes me happy.

i love having a super productive day, like today. i got tons of work done, and i feel pretty happy about it. i didn’t waste any time and it makes me feel like i’m actually achieving something rather than nothing at all. its a very nice feeling. it makes me very happy. almost an instant HIGH!

i am kind of hermitty. i enjoy my alone time. but when i hang out with my friends i always have the best time. i really do.

over the christmas holidays i had a lot of sad or upset moments but just hanging out with my friends makes me feel instantly happier. they are awesome people. same with my friends in halifax. we always have so much fun. like last night! all my friends are so great. they are fantastic people who i care about alot. just hanging out with them makes me smile and makes me less stressed. i love it.

it makes me feel so cozy and happy. but at the same time i always feel bad for the animals outside. and homeless people.

i really really raelly love a great nights sleep. or even a nap. sleeping is a great joy in laugh. stress free sleep is best. i am not doing this entry justice as i just woke up!

its not the getting, its not even the giving. its just the joy of christmas! my roommate meg LOVES christmas and it makes me so happy. she is always listening to christmas carols and getting excited about everything christmas. i love seeing christmas lights and hearing christmas music and christmas trees and the like. it just gives you a very warm, nostalgic feeling. i love it so much.

i love reading a book where the character reminds me of myself. maybe not in circumstance but in thinking. i am currently re-reading the innocent libertine by colette. what a great book. i love minne, the main character. she thinks just like i did when i was younger, and how i still think now. it gives me a comfy feeling and makes me smile while i read. i love her.

there is nothing more exciting than getting a letter or a package in the mail. it really makes my day, especially since i live far away from home. its so nice to get a package from my mum. i got a package from flemming college last week that i totally forgot that i sent away for. it was awesome. bills are not fun though.
