Favourite Things !

Today, I am just reminded of that song -- frm "The Sound of Music".

It goes something like this --

"Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things"

What are your favourite things? I bet none of them are really expensive. Most of it were simple stuff that you cud get from anywhere but for some reasons they just give you a fuzzy feeling inside. Come to think of it -- most of it is probably FREE!!

Little things that pick you up when you are down and instantly makes you feel better about yourself.

For me.. There are so MANY!!! Some my favourite things are things like....

First, wud be Squirrel running down the stairs to greet me when I open the door to my house. In fact, I cheer up instantly the minute I hear the bell on his collar jiggling because I know that he probably heard me before I have even gotten to the door.

I love the smell of bread and coffee as I pass by a cafe.... or walking past a florist with beautiful fresh flowers outside the shop. Sometimes, I can't stop myself but to walk in and buy a bunch of fresh flowers for no reason at all. I love buying flowers even if it is not for myself or there is no real reason to do so.

The sight of even just a bunch of daffodils or daisies will just cheer me up no end. I can't imagine what will happen if I ever see a field of those ha ha. I think I will run through it like how they do it in the bollywood movies albeit a lot less gracefully.

I love to see the smile of a friend as I walked into the office or a loved one before I leave for work -- even if it was on a blue Monday morning :)

Listening to music and dancing around in my room -- there is no rhythm or choreography. It probably looks scarily funny but it just makes me feel so good even if I am doing mundane housework ha ha

Driving along the highway while singing in coherently to some random song esp BoyZ II Men or some mushy love ballad from Babyface or RnB crooners :P

Hugging a packet of hot fish and chips on a winter evening or wholesome korean food. ARRRrrRRRR!!

The smell of a new book with a lazy chair and bag of salt & vinegar chips.

The list could go on and on......

These are just some of the things I love :) What about you???
