things that make me happy

mint choc chip ice cream

mango and banana nectar

music that makes me move, or sway, or tap my foot incessantly

friendly animals

young animals

old animals

animals

slices of juicy sweet watermelon

being within arm's reach of a kookaburra or a cockatoo (but not actually touching them)

the first dive into the middle lane of a still pool, and the instant cool it brings

running like a kamikaze down the beach into the water and diving into the waves

diving deep down as a HUGE wave rolls close, being peacefully submerged in a watery stillness as the wave sweeps over the top of me to the shore

fruitiness

fully understanding my homework

fully understanding my work

unusual pieces of clothing that actually look good on me

good hair days

skirts

making friends feel blissfully happy

big strong bear hugs

sitting close together outside and staring at nothing on a lazy afternoon or morning with friends

feeling good about myself and my body image

feelgood movies

the first hint of a summer breeze

beautiful blue skies and being in a park

classic picnics

holidays away

running around like a crazy nut

singing in perfect harmony with other musical minds

wicked impromptu jams

discovering that your feelings were mutual after all
