happy 15

15 things that make me happy (in no particular order)..

1. vanilla with nuts and chocolate sauce (a brownie thrown in- makes me happier)

2. Seeing a happy child

3. seeing an elderly (read ancient) couple still in love with each other

4. a shot i'd never played before (or never thought i'd play) in the adrenaline rush of a match

5. an india win, especially a 'come-from-behind'. on the same note, a tendulkar straight drive still brings a smile to my face; or for that matter, a wasim beauty.

6. an sms/e-mail from a long lost friend

7. eye play with an attractive girl

8. technology - esp. the internet and the mobile phone

9. rock n roll, baby!

10. lush, and carefully thought out cinematic sequences. or better still, a great movie!

11. Friday evening exits from office.. yippee, yay!

12. competent customer service

13. an early goal in any football match i'm watching. or for that matter, a goal of beauty!

14. puns, crisp and witty writing. along the same line - a smart advertisement.

15. Hitting on a good movie just as it's about to start on any of the channels. Which probably happens in the worlds occupied by unicorns and Peter Pan.
