I'm probably not going to tag anyone else, because I don't think anyone else reads my blog. :)

The rule is to list the things that make me happy and things that make me sad... Hmn...

What makes me sad...

• feeling unappreciated or when people don't see the things I do for them
• losing control over things I should have control over
• bad things happening to good people
• great things happening to people who don't deserve great thing happening to them
• realizing that I can be too self-righteous and extremely judgmental
• inability to function correctly when I don't drink coffee
• not being able to spend enough time on a certain task and not being able to do my best on that task
• having to kill time or feeling incredibly idle
• people who drain your energy
  
• dealing with decisions that were predetermined anyhow
  
• being too busy that weekends are necessary for me to rest
• being too tired to spend time with friends and/or family
• the feeling of being alone, even when I know I'm not
• having to really fight for what I know is right
• getting into a fight with anyone
• knowing that my parents are indeed, getting older
• when I'm faced with the fact that I'm incredibly far away from the man whom I love

What makes me happy...

• unwinding and reflecting on the day over a cup of ice-cold coffee
• TV, TV and more TV!
• a huge meal of fried daing na bangus, rice and iced tea - I could live on this for an entire decade, seriously!
• a great book, it could be about anything and everything
• a light-hearted and fun conversation with just about anybody, IE: manong driver when I ride a cab
• a perfect pair of shoes, the heels shouldn't be too high, and they shouldn't be flats - they should be just right...
• a tube of Philosophy's Kiss Me lip gloss
• a wonderful and slightly offbeat song that will be playing in my head for the rest of the day
• the promise of a new tomorrow
• great things happening to people around me
• stories from other people, anecdotes about the day or musings
• random acts of kindness from strangers, friends, family or even from myself
• great Sunday afternoons when I just veg out an watch countless episodes of X Files reruns
• any semblance of manners from people in the MRT
• chivalry
• blogging
• taking pictures of people who matter to me
• memories of great times with people I love
• funny movies
• hour-long baths
• fluffy pillows in silk cases
• watching little children having fun with their parents in parks or in the mall
• an hour-long massage from the nearby massage therapist
• making plans and keeping them
• being appreciated by my colleagues
• the feeling of being valued by my boss
• knowing my parents are in somewhat good shape both physically and financially
• December plans
• Jeoff appreciating me and loving me from afar
• understanding things from his perspective
  
• just merely thinking of him
