Well, what makes you happy? Pretty simple question, I think.

I'll start. :D

Music makes me happy. I honestly don't think I could survive without music. There's nothin' like coming home after a long day, kicking off your shoes, and putting on some good music to mellow out to. Usually jazz if it's been a shitty day.

Autumn makes me happy. The way the air smells all crisp and clean is just awesome. I'm also a huge fan of the cool weather.

Sunday mornings make me happy. No work, no school, nothin'! I just laze around and watch the Food Network and the History Channel all day.

Sitting around with my friends doing absolutely nothing makes me happy. Just hang out and shoot the shit, you know?

And my family, obviously. They're fuckin' great.

Oh, and rain.

Christmas Eve

Being alone, outside, at night. The moon does something for me. I'm not big on the whole "stars" thing. They make the sky look king of crowded :bleh:. I don't know. I guess I just enjoy the solitude or something. Kickin' it with my big sis makes me happy to.

Hmmm....

A good woman...a good history book...a good movie...autumn and winter, and a good game (computer game or board like go or shogi).
