happiness

still have been feeling a tad in the dumps, so i'm gonna compile a list of what makes me happy =)

1) a good DVD with english subtitles, because despite being quite the wordsmith i still cannot process accents thoroughly, especially british accents even though i have a love affair with the latter ( and i would have definitely gone through Trainspotting without understand a single word without the help of subtitles )

2) family gatherings. sundays at the grandma's always mean lip-smacking eatables from the aunties and excited young ones running around the house. the air of festivity is always there on sundays =)

3) a nice long quiet double-decker bus ride on rainy days and with the not-so-trusty ( fucking battery life ! ) ipod as a companion

4) telling myself that i am skinny, gorgeous , intelligent , smell nice , am fabulously fashionable and believing all of it.

5) comfort food ! pizza/chicken rice/steak/mashed potato/lamb chop/herbal soups

6) when you thought that he's too occupied with his work to ask you out, and then miraculously you receive an sms from him that goes "hey, doing anything later ??"

7) when you wake up with a good hair day, i.e no hair that sticks up at right angles.

8) when you wake up knowing what you want to wear

9) friends

10) looking at my hamster sleep with four paws sticking up in the air
