What are the little simple things, mundane everyday events, scenes, actions, that make you just happy ?


  I start.

> Reading in bed, while my girlfriend ( :'( ) laying next to me.
> Sleeping with open window, and having the warm sun wake you up in the morning.
> Giving your passport to the officer at the airport when you arrive in a new country.
> Hot girl smiling in the metro, or talking to you at a party
> Wearing new bought clothes on monday morning
> riding your snowboard on fresh virgin snow
> installing a new game and playing it for the first time
> people who say thank you when you hold the door for them, or when you let them go first

these are very general things.... be specific, simpler ... little things ....  

like
* sucking the ice cubes when you're done drinking your coke ...
* feeling rested when you wake up, even on a week day, putting Ratm's Killing In The Name on, and rocking out while you pick the clothes you wanna wear

no!!!! it makes me happy to break the rules.............anarchy!!! 

ummm...just kidding 
-i like walking home in the rain and getting really wet when you know you can have a hot bath when you get there
-peeling the stickers off a new cd
-when i have a difficult patient at work, and i keep my patience when other people have lost theirs
-eating messy food with my hands

...is that specific enough?

Those are pretty much the moments which make life progress...

Being satisfied with something really is awesome as well..Or when someone you respect goes "Good job man". And you do have to love when you're listening to a new leak for the first time as well..

-being told i'm loved
-cranking my stereo and rolling down the highway
-new gnr leaks
-sex
-laying naked with my gf after a long day at work
-a fresh joint or cold beer
-partying with my friends


looking back, this is kinda emo...lol

[Bach&Roses]

* The first time I hear a song I'm know I'm gonna love for the rest of my life (mostly ballads)
* When police comes to your temple (where we practice) and tells you to shut the fuck up cos people are complaining.
* When I'm told "Dude, did you hear that weird beer brand has dropped their prices even more, 2 dollars a six-pack" yeah, imagine the taste.
* Being all warm in bed when you can hear the rain pouring outside. (I stole this one from Karin, but it's so true)
* Oh yeah, the intro to Family Guy, it makes me very happy, so you can pretty much ask me about everything and I'll say yes while Family Guy is on (not any gay stuff).

[RKD]

- hearing my girlfriend say "I Love You"
- when my girlfriend tries to act all tough and stuff but can't cos shes too damn cute.
- seeing an old episode of a show from my childhood, power rangers, wcw nitro, wcw thunder, etc..
- just those moments where you could be doing anything, but you're listening to a song or watching a show and suddenly you realise just how good life is.
- waking up and its raining hard outside and you know you don't have to go to work or go out in it and you can just roll back over and sleep.
- when it snows and i'm walking down the street and theres no cars and theres just silence and the only sound i can hear is the snow crumpling beneath my feet..... that was an amazing few seconds lol.
- just laying there in whatever, as the sun comes up and i switch on the stereo and "Scar Tissue" comes on.. really relaxing.
- playing guitar/piano and just drifting off into your own little world. like playing freebird the other day, i was just going into my own place as i was doing it, no drugs or anything. just music at my fingertips.
- great one the other day, walking up a steep mile long hill only to reach the top just as the rain starts falling and Journey's "Don't Stop Believin" comes on the MP3.. i got soaked but greaaat moment
- when i look into the sky and see the sky from my childhood, kind of a flashbacky thing.
- ......memories.

one last one i forgot:

- when my girlfriend's dog had puppies and she told me to name one (i named him Hendrix) and then proceeded to give every puppy away besides hendrix, then raise him by herself yet say to me he's "Our dog". and tell me the reason that she wanted me to name him is so theres always something there to remind her of me. that made me smile for like weeks, still am, and it happened on Boxing Day last year. haha
