All Things Happy

It doesn’t always have to big things like diamond rings (I so want one right now) to make us happy. Many times, its small things that put a smile on our faces. And this is my list of those things.
♥ My dad awkwardly stroking my head, as it’s his one and only way to tell show he loves me.
♥ Spending time with people I connect and love… be it family or friends. They sure do put a smile on my face.
♥ Pulling legs of my friends A and H.
♥ That I have changed in past 2 years. Now I m more confident, more out going and can say ‘NO’.
♥ Rain, smelling the awesome smell of mother earth and eating either hot hot makka butta (corn) or an ice cream… Heaven :).
♥ Putting in hours together and dishing out something and people appreciating what you make. That just makes the whole effort worth it.
♥ When my Dad cooks something that I crave for.
♥ Those mornings and days when I feel lazy and spend them exactly how I feel…lazing around.
♥ Getting my hair oil massage by Saritha. She is awesome at that.
♥ Shopping.
♥ Gorging on my favorite food.
♥ Having a good hair day.
♥ A baby or kid smiling at me or holding my finger and knowing that one day in future I will have one of these angels to call my very own :).
♥ The way dogs wag their tails as soon as they see me (not my dogs… I don’t have one yet).
♥ Seeing the way my young niece and nephews react when I go to visit them. Seeing them so happy because of me, makes me happy.
♥ Waking up being happy and contended with the last night’s sleep (which rarely happens btw).
♥ When people say “I love you”.
♥ The fact that there are two people in this world who love me unconditionally and for whom I mean the world.
♥ Receiving compliments. Here’s a secret… I m sucker when it comes to flattery *shh* .
♥ My I-Pod Nano. Its very special.
♥ People doing nice and sweet things for one another or for animals.
♥ Cuddling my soft toys and sleeping.
♥ Looking at my Sponge Bob Square Pants Pillow… the pillow looks funny, I m sure it will make you smile too: P.
♥ Reading a good book with my favorite songs playing.
♥ Seeing couples in love.
♥ The smell of freshly baked bread.
♥ Taking a long hot/cold shower after a tiring day.
♥ Love.
♥ Winning.
♥ When someone does something sweet for me.
♥ When I do something that I think is commendable.
♥ Knowing that I have lots of strength inside of me.
♥ Remembering all the good times I spent with my Grand Pa… remembering him makes me nostalgic but also happy.
♥ Watching Cricket with Dad… our father-daughter bonding time.
♥ Watching one of my favorite movies, relaxing on couch with something to munch on.
♥ Watching Friends.
♥ Dancing… well, I only and only dance when I m happy.
♥ My perfect weather… cloudy and drizzling lightly.
♥ Eating chocolates.
♥ Writing.
♥ Finding money which I dint know existed.
♥ Watching India win a cricket match.
♥ Going on long drives.
♥ Music.
♥ Taking pictures.
♥ Vacations.
♥ You guys and my blog. Every time I read your comments it just makes my day.
So, What makes you guys happy?

So much positivity! *sigh* love it.
My dad’s gesture of love is also putting his hand on my head. Something to do with apprehensive-to-show-love South Asian dads?
Harini
I guess. They arent that vocal about their feelings :P.
