The Oscars!

10 Things to Be Happy About

1. Imaginary Lovers - Why imagine them when you can get the real thing all you do is look very hard. There is someone out there for everyone who wants someone else. This would make me happy if I didn't have someone in my life though.

2. Cushy Bath Mats - These are always soft and when you step in and out of the shower it's like a small foot massage. I love the feel on the bottom of my feet. The only problem if you get them wet they tend to get flat so washing them and drying them every once in a while makes them soft and fluffy once again!

3. Making Flash Cards - If they are going to help me pass a test of some sort they make me pretty happy.

4. Learning to Make Rope - I'm guessing this is some sort of Boy Scout thing. I guess learning how to make rope could be useful under some circumstances though so cool beans!

5. Stopping at a Bookstore After Work - I love bookstores and the smell of brand new books. Stopping at one after work would probably make my day especially if I had a bad day at work. I love reading so much that I like to sit in Barnes and Noble in the middle of the aisles trying to find a good book.

6. Rocky the Flying Squirrel - I love Rocky and Bullwinkle no matter how silly they are when I'm a grown up. They are truly entertaining because Rocky always has a plan and Bullwinkle is just a silly moose.

7. Sand Piles Covered with Snow - I think that almost anything covered in snow would make me happy. These would definitely be fun to sled down if they are big enough piles.

8. The Gift of Imagination - I learned recently that imagination dies in kids and the percentage of kids with good imaginations goes down as they grow up. A creative imagination leads to amazing inventions and kids with imaginations should be encouraged to use their imaginations to the fullest so they don't lose it as they grow up.

9. Practicing Something in the Mirror - When I was in high school our choir teacher used to tell us to practice our singing in front of a mirror. He told us that we should always watch our breathing because that is the most important part of singing, breathing from the right place so that the sound is right.

10. Anticipating Oscar Night - I know that everyone in my sorority was very excited for this and after a sisterhood they all sat in the house watching the Oscars and getting hyped up every time Inception won an award. Ah the rewards of being in a sorority and living in the house. I love being able to see lots of sisters all of the time. It's so worth it!
