It's simple. Post here a list of as many or as few things that make you happy, destress you, or help you get through the day.

I'll start:

1. Jane Austen novels
2. People who like Jane Austen novels
3. vintage Christian Dior dresses
4. Talking about the Mars One mission
5. smiley babies
6. novelty ties
7. dogs jumping into water after sticks
8. old men going on walks together
9. kids being amazed by things that adults take for granted
10. young adult novels with big never-saw-it-coming twists

17. Writing (duh) - especially realising that the characters work and plot works and it ALL WORKS. Even though rereading will find the tiny plot holes, but yay!
18. Finding stuff. Seriously, I've found so many things just walking around - like old coins or pens or pieces of jewelry, things of actual worth and which just carry so much story with them.
19. Traveling. In essence, anywhere, regardless of how (un)planned it is.
20. New pens and pencils and post-its and notebooks and artsy things 8D
21. Smell of books. Really... either old or new, I'm almost an addict when it comes to sniffing them xD

Old books, blankets, cats, and rainy fall days that are just the right amount of chilly.

Cold, rainy days when you're all wrapped up in a blanket with your laptop and a cup of hot chocolate that is in your hands, warming them.

1 The "Eureka!" moment in mystery novels when you figure who the killer is before the book actually tells you and then reading it on to see if you were right.

2. Hard boss fights in games that you weren't expecting but still make it though without any help on the first try.

3. Unexpected mind blowing plot twists in books.

4. When a plot and characters come together and work.

5. When a song speaks volumes to what your mood is like.
An angel, a knight, a man who will bring light to where there is only darkness, I am the Morning Star, the Bringer of Light, hail to me as I am King Lucifer!

The smell of freshly baked bread.

When a friend somehow just knows that you need a message or a pick me up from them.
