Accomplishing everything I set out to do

Visiting friends and family
Healthy snacks
My twin Sid figurines
Pro-Life websites
Having the odd evening to myself
Watching the Olympics on TV
Looking at pictures of Routemasters on the Internet and fantasizing about the old London

watching movies
being left alone
being warm and away from bright light
music
comic books
books in general

...and I just noticed most of these are solitary things ^^'

- Eating either golden-delicious apples or jumbo-sized strawberries.

- Skating by myself, with my trusty Iaudio G3 and Koss KSC75 earclips.

- Performing music with friends.

- Smokefree places.

Edit: "smokefree" is one word, not two.

Animals
Volunteering
Saving money
Sunny days
White Christmases
Hugs :O)

Listening to music which can draw out my emotions and help me to get into my thoughts.

Flowers. Sitting in a field of them and listening to the wind as it makes them all dance...

Trees. Standing under them and staring up and again listening to the wind blow through as soft, gentle clouds slowly float by...

Peace and quiet when the time for it is needed.

People who actually let me finish my sentences.

Hot apple pie with that flaky crust in the middle of winter.

Fresh baked cookies.

Working in my garden.

Sunsets. As that jewel in the sky descends for the day, the colors in the sky are pulled away to a new home.

Learning something new about physics, math, chemistry, etc.

Watching certain movies and becoming so engrossed in them that it feels like I am actually in it.

Holding a woman close and listening to her breath while standing in moonlight and no other sounds around.

Putting ice around my eyes or temples to relieve sinus pressure.

Not having to go anywhere or do anything.

Being with friends and family

What makes me happy?

When people take the time to truly understand me, and vice-versa.

anime and manga/ ology/ collecting and opera

Preparing this post made me happy - four of the most enjoyable hours I've spent. I was a bit disappointed at the lack of reaction, though.

Here's some stuff I like!

Watership Down, rabbits, chinchillas, Studio Ghibili films with subtitles, scarves, golden and silver rectangles in residential architecture, dressing up like animals, Dance Dance Revolution, Sage Derby cheese, FF6 and FF7, my Wacom drawing tablet, copic markers, A4 paper, figure drawing, mechanical pencils with thick lead, snap bracelets, an iced red-eye (coffee), buttered popcorn flavored jelly bellies, cream soda, licorice all-sorts, 80's music, copic markers, shy girls with long hair (glasses and book-smarts a plus), old Japanese songs and legends, Adult Swim cartoons, Atari and NES games, going on day-long hikes to random places, Toronto, Tank Girl comix, mozerella sticks, certain Disney movies, nutella, wearing a pirate hat at Long John Silvers, candy from foreign countries, visiting the lobsters at the grocery store (at 2AM), looking down from parking garages...

I think I'm amused by enough random stuff that I can find something to enjoy everywhere I go. ^_^ There's great stuff everywhere - ya just gotta look for it!

What makes me happy…..
Watching the leaves change to orange and fall in autumn
The guitar sound in the live/long version of the eagles “hotel California”
Touching my hair after I just washed & dried it
Riding on the back of a four wheeler going really fast-and having some one to hold on to!
Watching my ballerina daughter dance
Walking it wet grass
Finding some thing that I don’t have in lime green
Telling secrets at midnight
And blowing the seeds of a dandelion

right now its fire agates, there so beautiful and super rare!

POWERTHIRST

Um...reading and drawing I guess? I haven't been happy in a while though...

I don't know why but singing always makes me feel better.
Talking to girls
Reading a good book
Talking to someone who isn't a sheep aka sheeple
Drawing (although I'm not very good)
Writing a good story (very rare that I try too though)
Video games
Movies
Zombies
Getting attention from women
Working hard enough to sweat.
