List of Things That Make Me Smile
Heavy rain
The scent of old frail book pages
Long aimless walks with my dog
Non-stop sunshine
Milkshakes at midnight after winning home football games with the marching band family
The stillness of the air in an empty dim-lighted auditorium
Blowing bubbles through a straw in milk
Beach adventures
Peaceful camping trips in the woods that disconnect me from the rest of the chaotic world
Gold sunrises & sunsets
Secretly hearing a stranger hum a song I'm unfamiliar with
"Messy hair don't care" days
Baking peach braids just because
Getting lost intentionally in New York City
Finding a hold-in-the-wall place to eat
Antique book shops
Googling a name & being amazed with the accuracy of the meaning behind it
Picking oranges, lemons, & grapefruit with my dad from his yard and making freshly squeezed juice
Practicing flute for my grandpa
Trying something new
Skating, even though I'm awful at it but still trying
Taking a candid photograph of a significant moment, soon memory
Kite flying on the beach with my little brother
Making a boquet out of wildflowers
Scary summer storms
Drives with no destination in particular
Up North Michigan
The way my mom would make oatmeal in the middle of the night for us to enjoy when we were little
Proudly planning my education
Writing poetry in the margins of a book
Vitamin Sea
Drying grapes into raisins on the windowsill
Eating & cherishing favorite childhood meals
Looking through old family photos & home videos on a VCR
Rummaging through my grandpa's "junk drawer"
The best egg salad sandwiches made by Nana
Papa's oversized flannel jacket
The cold wet nose of a dog
Soft warm blankets straight from the dryer
The scent of wood furniture
Thanksgiving spent at a cabin in the mountains
A first kiss
Raising caterpillars into butterflies & releasing them
Remembering how to play a song on the piano
A warm summer breeze
The smell in the crisp air after it rains during autumn
An unexpected thoughtful gift that says 'I know you'
Feeling well rested
A hotel room for one
Dancing in the kitchen late at night to music with my sister
Disciphering my Godmother's cursive calligraphy letters in the mail
My sisters hotel soaps collection
California Poppies
Drinking milk from a bag as a kid
Love finding me at an unexpected yet perfect time
You <3
