what makes me happy...

extremely long cuddles with mcdreamy after work...

this is the time we catch up on each other. what we did that day, venting our frustrations, our feelings, thoughts and questions...

it's really nice...:)
actually, mcdreamy makes me happy!

my best friends.

they are my pillars! we are the kind of best friends that are always there for each other.

we don't necessarily need to see each other everyday. but it is the comfort of knowing that we will drop everything when we need each other. :)

mcDonald's chocotop.

there is something about the delicious chocolate topping. in fact, i could just eat the choc and give away the ice cream after that...

mcdreamy always said i have this "intense & focused" look when i eat my chocotop. i will look at it at every angle, before choosing the optimum bite. *drool*...

my morning coffee.

well, i can't be arse-d to make a frothy heart in my morning coffee, because...well i don't know how to. hahaha!

but, a cuppa of java always does wonders to my soul on those working mornings. weirdly enough, i never crave for it on the weekends!

beach holidays.

aaah...bliss.
it's not that i like getting burnt or tanned.
i also get annoyed when i get sand into places where sand should never go.

but...aaah...beach = relaxation.


live music performances.

i get so enthralled by this. especially if it has a jazz-y feel to it. or r&b. or soul. not so rock. alternative, maybe.

i guess this is because i grew up wishing to one day be a performer. which is why, the next thing that makes me happy is...

performing!
i have tried dancing, singing and acting.

yes, i get stage fright every single time.
yes, i puke at the thought of going on stage.

but, i am not going to deny that i love every bit of it.
i love the practices and drills.
i love it when everything goes perfectly well.
i even love the little kooky mistakes i make, which makes it even more memorable.
i love the feeling when people enjoy the performance. i love love the feeling AFTER the show. priceless. :)

dancing.

aaah. i love every type of dance. but my favourites are...salsa, hip hop, jazz, lyrical...*sigh*.

the spins, the expressions...i really miss doing this. it is such a shame that there aren't that many nice classes to attend in kl (and more specifically damansara area).

yoga.

yes, the fatwa council has decided that yoga, which contains incantations and such is haram.
but, i don't chant. i don't meditate.
however, i DO do my yoga postures.
and i DO benefit from it from a health point of view.
i DO see a difference in my bodyshape and general posture. and i definitely have NOT deviate from my faith.
:)

shoes.

i love shoes.
i believe that i have reached my financial optimum, if i can afford to buy a pair of christian louboutin.

yum.

but for now, i love all types of shoes. from sky scraping heels to ballerina flats. :)

shopping.

i only know less than a handful of girls, who does not get a kick out of shopping.

i truly love shopping. i know it is such a "blonde" statement. but, i do think that shopping is much more than "spending".

it is an art and science all put together. the tactics, the bargain hunting, the savvy-ness! do YOU remember the feeling you get when you just banked in on a major bargain? :)

reading.

i know this is really boring. but my passion of reading is really great, that i bring a book EVERYWHERE i go. or any reading material will do.

when i don't bring any, i will read billboards, signboards, car plate numbers. i am just like that.

i even read a book during my facials. those times you are supposed to be sleeping. not me! i read.

and there you have it. the things that keep me happy.
