I’m waiting for my mom to hang up the phone so we can head to the post office to pick up the parcels that arrived for me.1 My mom and my grandma talk on the phone for hours at a time! Their current record is five hours. They talk everyday…most of the time it’s four hours. You can just imagine how huge my grandma’s phone bill is (she’s the one who usually calls us). BTW, my grandparents live in the U.S.
I can stay on the phone for a maximum of 1 hour. My longest phone call ever ran for about eight hours — on my mobile. I won’t be doing that again.
Okay, so while waiting… I came across one of Shen’s lists and thought I’d post mine here.
Here are TEN THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY these days:
- knowing I’ve made a difference in someone’s life, no matter how small
- talking to Jim
— hearing his voice always makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
- spending time with my family
— haha. It makes me want to sing the 7th Heaven theme. - hanging out with friends
— We don’t get to see each other as often as we’d like.
We’re lucky to be able to catch a movie or have dinner once every couple of months. - reading a good book
— I love books that inspire me to blog even though I rarely get to write about what I read here.
My literature-related thoughts tend to get all jumbled up. - long walks
— Especially when I’m upset. It helps clear my head. - beautiful rainy days
— It’s one of the things I miss about living in Laguna. It was always so peaceful when it rained there. When it rains here in Pasig, it’s often scary. - moonlit nights and starry skies
— There’s just something about looking at the moon and the stars that makes you think that everything that happens in your life is part of a divine plan. Synchronicity. It’s cosmic. - black and white photos
— They say that colored photographs capture the person’s clothes, black and white photos capture the person’s soul! - my favorite food!
— I feel like Garfield..craving for lasagna.
- Darn customs office keeps holding them. ↩
argh. But I’m enjoying having my laptop in it’s out-of-box state (except it looks a bit battered on the outside – just a bit!)
