Happy is...
All right, so one of the goals on my list of
43 things to do was to make a list of 100 things that made me happy. Trickier than I expected, and amusing (especially the items about food).
This is the kind of thing one puts on one's blog, I imagine, so here it is...
1. the smell of newly fried spam (or luncheon meat lol)
2. McDonalds’ Chicken McNuggets with barbecue sauce
3. lemony smell of freshly washed clothes
4. rereading favorite parts in favorite books
5. exceptional music
6. the way good friends ask you how you are when you look terrible (while acquaintances give you a wide berth)
7. laughing over the silliest things
8. costume dramas with happy endings
9. reading bedtime stories
10. strawberry-filled doughnuts
11. dark chocolate
12. sleeping 7 to 8 hours a night
13. the way Jillane (the cousin I see only twice or thrice a year) gives me a BIG hug
14. my sister’s smile after I do her a favor
15. the scent of grass after rain stops pouring
16. eating soba, sushi, and tempura in a good Japanese restaurant
17. mulling on enlightening Bible verses
18. playing beautiful songs on my violin
19. iced tea when it’s hot enough to cause sun stroke outside
20. soft white sand and clear blue water at the beach
21. watching movies and eating take-out with my sister (a.k.a. female bonding)
22. playing video games with my younger cousins while eating large pizzas (a.k.a. bonding with males)
23. feeling like my heart is full at church meetings
24. learning to play familiar tunes by ear on the piano
25. doing really tough Math problems correctly
26. summer vacation (holidays, snacktime, meals, anytime where we get breaks)
27. excitement of travelling (whether to a new place or old favorite doesn’t really matter)
28. the really cheap and delicious siomai and rice across our school (about $0.42 for a satisfying lunch)
I'm having fun. ^_^

So I'm Daisy (or fedora_girl)
I'm (naturally) wearing the fedora.
I'm a Chemical Engineering student --- getting that degree sometimes involves putting my brain through a strainer --- who also enjoys living life and eating like every meal is my last meal.
I'm a child of God, and that gives my life meaning.
I adore my family and friends. We spend a lot of time together, so they occasionally come up in my posts.
I also take pictures, do computer work, and scribble. I use Adobe Photoshop for long periods of time, and design blogs. I submit most of my good photos and drawings in
my DeviantArt account, and my blog designs in
my Blogskins account.
I read a lot. My favorite books of all time are the Holy Bible,
Pride & Prejudice,
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Boy Who Could Fly,
The Nanny, &
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
I don't like watching TV because I feel it gives me wrong ideas about the real world. I'm partial to period dramas, musicals and other good movies though. A few that I like are
Pride & Prejudice (2005 version),
North & South (a BBC TV drama),
Facing The Giants,
Sixteen Candles, &
Singin' In The Rain.
I love music; I like a lot of genres. I'm getting into country music and some good rock at the moment. I also adore movie soundtracks and songs that are more than 60 years old.
And about this blog...
It's pretty much a personal thing. It's filled to the brim with my escapades, thoughts, stuff I make, and just plain observations. Random, really.
Hope you enjoy it!
