A Walk After Dinner

May 27’s 10 Things to Be Happy About

1. A Movie MacGuffin - Is this someone who knows a lot about movies because if so my mother is one of these to the highest degree. She knows so much about movies and the people who are in them because she reads so much.

2. Bamboo and Coconut - These just remind me of the tropics even though bamboo can grow in areas that are cold and remote. It’s really weird but they go together well I guess.

3. A Dart Board - Dart boards are pretty cool but unfortunately, I can’t play darts to save my life. My uncles had a dart board in my grandmother’s basement that was surrounded by famous basketball players which I always thought was pretty epic. Since it was the only one that I saw for years I pretty much thought that it was the coolest thing and that’s how all dart boards were.

4. Baby Shampoo Aroma - Honestly it’s so fresh and any adult shampoo can’t beat it. I used it even when I wasn’t a baby any more until I started conditioning my hair because I always thought that it smelled amazing.

5. Rub-On Tattoos - I remember when we were kids we all thought that these were the coolest thing ever since we couldn’t have the real deal. Some kids would come to school with them plastered all over their bodies and show them off like they were the best thing ever. You put them on with water and a sponge.

6. Corny Things - Honestly the corny things are usually the simple things in life and if they make you happy then you are generally a happy person. I wish that more people were impressed by the smaller things in life then more people wouldn’t want so much out of life.

7. Immense Forests - The bigger they are, the more likely they are to be chopped down in the next few years so that we can build more houses that we really don’t need. I want to know why they keep building more houses when there are so many that are foreclosed and for sale?? Can someone explain this to me please??

8. A Walk After Dinner - I love getting a little exercise after dinner as long as it’s not running because by the end of the day I’m usually exhausted. Also if it’s summer it’s fun to walk as the sun sets as long as you’re home by the time is setting or else you end up walking in the dark.

9. Paper and Crayons - I love coloring books and crayons. It makes time go by so much faster when you’re bored. When I was younger when we would go out to eat my mom would always bring a coloring bag to entertain us until our food came because it would keep our minds off of our hunger and it felt like the food would come faster. I love coloring...no matter how old I am.

10. Displaying Your Talent - When I was in seventh grade, I displayed my talent for the first time in front of a lot of people and most of them were stunned. It was really funny when my English teacher walked up to me and goes...I didn’t know you could sing! I then went on to win first place in the talent show because people had no idea what hit them!
