the opposite of pet peeves

Since the last entry was a little heavy and I'm struggling to get back to sleep, I was inspired by Emily from Cupcakes and Cashmere to write about little things that make my day better.

10 Simple Joys

1. When your current favorite song seems to stalk you wherever you go. (I'm embarrassingly in love with Katy Perry's "California Gurls" and I heard it three times the other day when I was out shopping.)
2. People getting my name right the first time.
3. When people hold the door for me. (Sometimes, it's also nice to be reminded that male chivalry isn't dead.)
4. Finding clothes that fit me perfectly. This especially includes jeans that require no hemming!
5. Starting on a fresh page of a notebook/journal/sketchbook.
6. Reading trashy fashion magazines at a bookstore after that insane exam/cram session/all-nighter paper.
7. Making a new playlist on iTunes.
8. When friends know you're cheating, but are nice enough to pretend you're not because you're god-awful at cards.
9. Watching a terrible movie on YouTube with your friend over iChat so the two of you can laugh at it together.
10. Handstands. Cartwheels. Random weird yoga/gymnastic body contortions that help me relax and stretch my tired muscles.
