#51 Going home

Being away at university now just means that when the time comes that I get to go home, it's even more exciting. Happy times.

#52 Chocolate

#53 Watching thunder storms from inside

As long as there's a thick pane of glass separating me and the thunder storm then all is good. I just love watching the lightning...

#54 Holding a door for someone

This is random but the kind act of holding a door for someone really does make me happy...after all, do to others as you would like done to yourself...is that even the saying? 

#55 Lying in bed, warm, watching a movie or television show

#56 Sunshine reflections in water

So pretty....

#57 Finishing a book
It feels like I've accomplished something haha


#58 Spraying all the different perfumes in department stores




#59 Finding money on the floor
Not so happy for the person who lost it though...I'm only talking £5 etc not millions :L

#41 Being at home

When I'm at university it really hits me how much I love being at home and how much happier I am....

#42 Stars

Especially when you get a really clear night where there is sooooo many stars!

#43 My birthday

My birthday makes me happy....and not just because of the presents haha

#44 Magpies eating the seed in the garden

They can't get to the seed in the hanging things so we sprinkle it on the ground and it's lovely to watch them eating it :)

#45 Suddenly getting an idea for a project/assignment/essay etc

#46 Rainbows

#47 Driving at night

I don't know why this makes me happy but it just does...unless it's raining...

#31 Bacon Cheeseburgers

I absolutely love Burger King bacon cheese burgers. I don't eat them often at all but when I do I love them.

#32 Hippos

Hippos are my favourite animal; I just think they are so cute - if you forget about the fact that they could kill you instantly! IT just makes me happy thinking about them :)

#33 Bed Socks

#34 Watching snow fall outside

#35 Chinese food

#36 Letting go of the petrol pump on the exact round number
This makes me feel like I've accomplished something great and who doesn't get happy when they accomplish something!




#37 Christmas

#38 Finding tap water that tastes nice

I'm very particular about the water I drink. A lot of the time I find that I don't like water from taps but occasionally when I find some that tastes good it makes me so happy!






#39 Waking up to a new text message or tweet




#40 Finding someone who likes the same television shows as I do
This is the best because then I feel like I have something in common with that person and something to talk about. I can also share my excitement with them about the show haha

To see parts one and two of this series just click here! 

#21 Scuba Diving

I only recently started scuba diving (I've done it four times haha) but already I love it! Being able to breath underwater for sometimes over an hour at a time just makes me so happy even though it is a really strange feeling. 

#22 Looking at old photos of me growing up, holidays, times with family etc...

#23 Roller coasters

This is Sheikra in Busch Gardens and this has to be the scariest roller coaster I have ever been on and I've been on some pretty scary ones! I get scared going up all the time but then the thrill on how fast you're flying round the track just makes me happy; I could ride roller coasters all day....



#24 Getting things in the mail


Doesn't this make everyone happy? I obviously mean good things like packages of things you've ordered or cards or presents and things like that...



#25 LUSH


This is a only a recent thing but I've found myself visiting LUSH stores a lot lately and the smell just makes me feel happy (:



#26 Listening to the same song over and over again


If I find a song I really like I'll listen to it on repeat for ages. Here are the two that I have on repeat at the moment.

#27 Visiting my grandparents




#28 Collecting things


I like the feel of have a large collection of one thing; like I've accomplished something (when really I just have more stuff to put in my room!) I have collections of ducks, stamps, teddies, beanie babies, pin badges, magazines, dvds, keyrings and probably a few more things.



#29 Driving

I think it's the freedom of being able to just get in my car and drive to the store or to the cinema or anywhere...

#30 Pearls

#11 Cute baby animals

That's me; was quite a while ago though (:

#13 Disney

Disney, especially Disneyland, just makes me feel so happy. Such a beautiful world of nothing but joy and happiness.

#14 Shopping

I wish those were the shops I shopped in! But still, I just love going and seeing the new things in store and then buying new things. I like when you get home and take all the tags off, it makes it feel like they are really yours!

#15 Flying

#16 Money

For me, I honestly believe that money can buy you happiness. I get this isn't a wide-shared opinion but money generally makes me happy.

#17 Going to the cinema and keeping the ticket afterwards

I like to keep the tickets and stick them in my scrap book. It just means I can have something to show for my day and I can always remember what movies I have seen...

#18 Fireworks

#19 Shaped balloons

#20 Dr Pepper & Mountain Dew

Happy New Year & 100 Things That Make Me Happy [Part One]

Happy New Year! I hope your 2012 is just amazing in every way!

__________________________________________________________________


Now onto the 100 things part of this post; I saw this on Sofia's Journal and decided I wanted to blog about the 100 things that make me happy...so here goes! 

#1 My mum and dad
This one's kind of self explanatory but I would be a nothing without them; they push me so much to achieve my goals and reach my dreams...




#2 American television shows
To say I'm obsessed is an understatement...I watch about 20 shows at once and sometimes I don't even know how I keep up with them all! I do have several shows that I must watch though and the others are just there when I'm bored...




#3 Handbags

#4 Starbucks hot chocolate with whipped creme

On a cold day I just love going and sitting in Starbucks...I don't drink coffee (I wish I did because they all look so delicious!), so I always get a hot chocolate and it's by far the best hot chocolate ever!




#5 McDonalds 

I know I know, McDonalds is probably one of the most unhealthy places to eat ever but i just love it!  don't go every day or every week, just every so often and when I do I enjoy it so much! It's a real weakness of mine...and the curry sauce is to die for!




#6 Buying magazines

Every week I make my way to the shop to buy my weekly magazines and most of the time I end up coming away with some monthlies too! It jet makes me so excited to see the cover in the flesh and I love the feel of a new, untouched magazine - pretty sad right?




#7 Private Practice

I get way too excited about this television show and when it goes on mid-season breaks I feel like I'm missing something in my life (I have a problem!). Everyone go and watch this show, it's amazing I promise!

#8 Blogging

Since I started blogging on October 10th I have found myself enjoying it more everyday. I love sitting down at my laptop and just writing up a blog...




#9 Changing my nail polish a million times in one week

#10 America. Americans. Everything America.

Can I just live in America please?

Check back next week for more things that make me happy!
