101 Things that make me happy (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

For the past two weeks or so I haven't been feeling like my usual excitable, happy self. I'm just feeling a bit down and annoying and left out so in an attempt to cheer myself (and possibly you) up I've compiled this list of 101 things that make me happy (in no particular order).

1. Cats- I simply can't resist them
2. Dogs- For the same reason as cats
3. Eating a freshly baked cake
4. Reading- I can't resist the temptation to snuggle down with a good page turner
5. Getting paid- Pretty obvious as to why this makes me happy
6. Starting a new addictive series (of books/television shows/whatever floats your boat)
7. Buying new manga
8. Buying new books- Gotta love that 'new book' smell
9. Buying second hand books- They also have a particularly appealing scent
10. Pizza

33. Falling asleep to the sound of rain
34. Receiving letters from my wonderful penpals
