identify 100 things that make me happy (besides money)

The moment I hear chaffinch sing for the first time is when spring really starts.
Today I slept with my window open for the first time this year and this little chaffinch fella woke me up, it felt so, so, so great.
I love that sound so much.

Denver country music makes me immensely happy and excited.
That extraordinary dark sound and religious passion affects me so much that I get shivers every time I hear banjo or read a citation from Bible.
I don’t know, maybe it’s the religion that makes the the bands from Denver so remarkable… but every time I listen to any of them, I get struck by this overwhelming tide of emotions and I can’t concetrate on anything else.

(If anyone’s interested, listen to something by 16 Horsepower, Woven Hand, Slim Cessna’s Auto Club or Munly & The Lupercalians)

58 – LP records
59 – Photos from fashion shows
60 – Sleeping
61 – Poetry
62 – Bubble wrap (virtual one here! http://www.virtual-bubblewrap.com/popnow.shtml )

56 – Polish language
57 – The moment when I cross the border from the Czech Republic to Poland and instantly start thinking in Polish.

54 – Polish cakes (they’re the best in the world, I’m telling you.
Kremówka, wuzetka, those with nuts in them, those with honey, oooooohhh god…)

55 – Polish candy (Krówki, kukułki, ptasie mleczko, cukierki Adwokat, trufle, butter pretzles… it’s HEAVEN!!!!)

I had to make two separate categories for those, that’s how awesome they are.

49 – Movies
50 – Ballroom dancing (like waltz, polka, cha-cha, jive and such)
51 – Cooking for someone
52 – Going to concerts
53 – Travelling by train

I don’t know what it is about blonde hair… but handsome blonde guys make my heart skip a beat while most of cute dark-haired guys don’t have that kind of charm on me.

I don’t wear lolita and I never intend to (I’m more into elegant, sophisticated office style).
But it’s my guilty pleasure.
I could spend hours (and sometimes I do) watching videos and looking at pictures of lolitas. They’ve got every single detail on their outfits worked out and they look like sugar dolls.
So damn cute.

44 – The sound of rain

45 – Last.fm – I just love that website. Having my own personal listening statistics is something I can’t imagine my life without. And I’ve discovered so much great music and have met so many amazing people thanks to last.fm! All my friends have their own last.fm accounts and sometimes is really nice to take a look at what their listening to right now.

46 – Watching stars at night – especially in the country, where my grandma lives. I can’t see so many stars at my hometown (because of the light pollution) but there are no streetlights and no big town around where my grandma lives. And the night sky is just breathtaking.

I love browsing through old photos of my parents from the times before they got married
(my mom was a hottie!)

and those of my grandma and her father from the pre-war times.
