1) Fresh Air
-being outside can usually bring a smile to my face, whether paddling on the shores of a sun kissed river or walking to the post office.
2)Trees
-With or without leaves I always think trees look really majestic. Big trees are pretty old, like wise old men, so its sometimes nice to think what has happened around them since they were a little sapling and stuff...
3)Granny Smith Apples
-If I were pick some sort of personal mascot or emblem I think I would choose the granny smith apple. Always a refreshing snack, crisp and tangy.
4)Plain McVities Digestives
-Sure, food in general is pretty awesome but a simple Mcvities is appropriate at any occasion. I keep a tin of them above my bed.
5)Writing Letters
-I love both writing letters and receiving the replies through my letter box. I love writing - from picking out a nice pen, the correct colour and consistency of ink, to finding the most appropriate size and colour of paper, to thinking of amusing or pleasant anecdotes to tell somebody about. I love to get a hand written letter - the added dimension of handwriting adds to much more of a personal touch to correspondence. I also like to visualise the person taking time out of their day to sit down, like I did, and pick a pen and paper and think of nice things to say to you. Also in a letter you can add little extras, like a bus ticket or piece of special chewing gum that you just can't attach to your standard format email.
6)Journeys-I don't mean 'travelling' in the sense of discovering new places and experiencing different cultures, although that is very nice. I just mean the physical act of moving between two locations. The more I think about it I suspect it is more Daydreaming that I enjoy - and travelling allows guilt free day dreaming. Whether walking to the shops for a pint of milk, taking a mega bus home, or flying across the sea: whilst travelling is one of few times when you can justifiably do absolutely nothing - you are perfectly justified in sitting staring out of the window and thinking unproductive thoughts. While travelling you are not expected to do very much. And I like not doing very much.
7)Feet
-Just think they look kinda neat.
