I don't know whether or not there was a thread like this here but thought I'd start one anyway. Gales have hit the UK and the weather has been crap, and my morale has been low at work. So I thought I would do something a little cheery to perk me up a bit, and anyone else that needs it.

Basically, just list/talk about little things you like or love. I will start.

:star: I love the smell of toast coming up the stairs as I wake up in the morning.
:star: I love the sound of the rain against my bedroom window when I'm having a lie-in, knowing full well I don't have to go out in it and stay curled up in bed.
:star: I love waking up to feel my hair or face being stroked by my boyfriend, who the gives me my first kiss of the day (he does this near enough every time I stay at his or he stays at mine).
:star: I love everything about summer, the heat, the smell, everything!! !
:star: I love steak and kidney pies with flaky puff pastry.
:star: I love being able to sit alone and read my favourite journal/book without any distractions, preferably curled up in bed or sprawled across my sofa.
:star: I love coca-cola.
:star: I love just munching away on various types of food.
:star: I love it when I'm in a world of my own, it's so relaxing.
:star: I love the feel of the heat that comes off hot water bottles on your feet or stomach.
:star: I love a decent mocha or a hot chocolate.
:star: I love big jumpers that you have to wear in winter to keep warm, they are so snuggly.
:star: I love being able to talk to someone I'm close to for hours about anything (actual proper conversation, meaningful), as though I'm washing all my problems away and realising what I have :)
:star: I love, also, being able to talk to someone I'm close to about absolutely nothing because I'm in their company.
:star: I love that feeling you get when you walk through your front door after being at work on Friday's knowing you can put your feet up and relax for the weekend.
:star: I love the way you feel after you have just had your hair cut.

I may think of more later on in the week, you never know.

:heart: I love the feeling of a cat's little paws as he/she finds a good spot on my bed to leech off my body heat.

I love the smell of the asphalt when it rains, and I like the cozy darkness of the winter.

I find enjoyment in a lot of small things, among them:

* Chatting with people I know (about anything, doesn't matter what, as long as it's something that doesn't hurt anyone)
* Running into people I know from school in public
* Being away from my parents and in the company of my peers
* Walking the dog
* Being outside in cold, windy weather
* Rehearsals in Drama club
* The fencing lessons I'm taking
*Hanging around after school, after school activities are finished, waiting for my parents to pick me up from school. I can just sit around and read and talk, think about the day and smile
* Drinking coffee & other caffienated beverages
* Thinking about the people I consider my friends
* Thinking about some of the people I'm considering asking out on a date
* Taking walks in the park in late afternoon & early evening
* Feeding the dog
* Listening to Music (I usually have limited tastes, and I prefer "darker" music, but sometimes I listen to crappy upbeat Japanese or continental European pop music when I'm in a good mood)
* Dancing with other people
* There's a socially akward new Freshman at my school and I'm trying to talk to to help him muster up the courage to socialize with other people and be fully accepted by his/my peers.
Trying to help him out makes me feel like a happier and more fulfilled person, because I remember when I was in his position and needed someone to guide me through life in a school I'd just transferred to. I didn't have that, and I don't feel anyone else in that position should be left without some sort of a guide.
* Playing Hackey-Sack with friends
* Doodling pictures
* Reading
* Writing short stories, scripts, poems, lyrics, etc.
* Taking walks in wide open spaces in the company of others.

Having soft, furry things to stroke - like a cat, or a (fake) fur coat.

Open fires.

Crisp, sunny winter days.
"And sunny days in January, left spaces in my diary..." - Super Furry Animals

Cheese omlettes!

A nice cup of tea.

Power showers.

A new favourite song.

:star: I love listening to my favourite band, Muse. I think Matt Bellamy has an incredible voice.
:star: I love being able to listen to my MP3 and switch off in public.

I refer to my iPod nano as my "universal mute button".

When no one is home and i can dance around the house
The sound of leaves crunching under my feet
How your breath turns white when it is cold outside
Listening to my music
The smell of petrichor just before it rains
When a song from my cd collection comes on the radio
Traveling
Ripples in a pond
The sounds of waves of crashing on the beach accompanied by sea gulls screeching
Picking off an old scab
Nibbling on my hair
Seeing my old religion teacher and his hair
Dancing in the rain with my long skirt on
The reflection a rain drop makes
Looking at a picture of rain drops stopped in midair
Doodling
Fire
Campfires
