I really have no idea what to blog, so I did a little searching and digging. And I found those 30-day challenges stuffs and some of the challenges involve writing. So I decided to use that as a template for my upcoming posts. I will be using the one that will share more personal stuffs about myself and who knows, for those reading, we may have some things in common and we can get connected! Yay!!!!
Just to highlight, I will not be doing the challenge within 30 days as per challenge suggests because errmmm... I am not that hardworking. So I will be changing it to 30 weeks. Much more doable.
Today I will be sharing with you 10 things that make me really happy. I am sure a lot of things that make me happy makes you happy as well!
1. Sleeping
I LOVE SLEEPING. I can sleep the whole day, the whole week, the whole month or the whole year if I could. A nice, peaceful moment where no one is disturbing you and you are not disturbing anyone else too. The solitude that I need in my own space.
2. Chocolates
Who are the chocoholics here? I am!
I don't think I really have to say much here. Chocolates pretty much sell themselves and they sell themselves well!
3. Reading
Reading transports me to many different worlds. Worlds that I have never been to, worlds that I may never ever go to. And that is more enough to make me happy. Sadly, as I am old now, it is getting harder to find time to read. But I hope for a day that I can spend just one whole day being lost in a book.
4. Travelling
Speaking of transporting, travel makes me happy. I think this makes everyone happy. The only difference is the places we want to travel to. Some travel to shop and sight-see. Some travel to be tuck away on an island, being one with nature. I am happy with both.
5. Being with loved ones
There is no greater feeling than being surrounded with your loved ones. Laughing, sharing stories and anecdotes over good food. Especially when it is mum's and mum-in-law's cooking. Bliss!
6. Cats
Cats are so adorable!! I just can't with their cute eyes, their fur and their beans! If you have a sassy one, it makes your life even more interesting. I used to have 6 amazing cats. Now I am left with one as the rest have passed on due to old age and health issues. I still very much grief over the loss but I am glad that I had them in my life.
7. Tea
I love my tea! Teh O, Teh Tarik, Chai Tea Latte, Matcha Tea, Ice Lemon Tea... Bubble Tea...
Sorry, I am not a coffee drinker. Don't think I will ever be one. But who knows.
8. Gardening
I am very much a novice in gardening. I love watching plants grow from seeds. And I have this vision of creating a sustainable garden. However, I end up killing lots of plants in the process. Oh well, I shall not give up.
9. Sylvanian Families
What are Sylvanian Families? They are cute animals dolls with families and houses. They are so droolsome and so expensive but they make me so happy. I stopped buying them now because I have no space. They are my favourite toys. Yes, I am a child still at the age of almost 40 years old!
10. Poetry
I think this really shouldn't have come as a surprise. I LOVE poetry.
My favourite poets are Rumi, Lang Leav, RM Drake, Azalia Suhaimi... Just to name a few.
They led me to eventually writing and publishing my own poetry books!
I wonder if you love the same things I love. If you do, do comment below and share your loves or even hates. Would love to hear from all of you!
