Ripping the plastic from a new cd, open it, put the cd up straight in the box.
Being in a good cd store and actually find albums of artists I love and don't have to ship them in.
Being in a bookstore (for hours, and hours and hours) checkin out books and reading the back.
Drinking hot choco in the sofa, all rapped up in a blanket.
Watching dirty dancing with best friend, with strawberry's and white wine.
Watching doctor Zhivago (the 4 hours and a half version) with hot choco and cookies.
Writing all day long.
Laying in bed till 5am reading an amazing good book when you peacefully hear the raindrups fall on the roof.
Walking along the coastline for hours and hours with my ipod daydreaming
Daydreaming

Lieing on the beach or in a forest with your eyes closed, thinking about nothing in particular.
Sitting at the computer all day long and NOT feeling like its a day that has been wasted.
Reading a good book by the Christmas tree with Christmas music on.
Walking past someone and seeing a smile.
Writing with a purple pen.
Feeling the new marker scroll across a white board.
The feeling that nothing bad is going on. Its only you and your happiness.

- Opening a book for the first time.
- Getting a PM on a forum/message on MySpace.
