How happy can I get? Lemme count to 10

I am tagging them pretty bloggers Jane, Vina Noemi and Iska (ditto with all the beautylicious women out there) on this ongoing meme which asks you to describe 10 of your life’s simplest pleasures. I am so (in) famous that nobody tagged me :P but I am doing this just the same. The trick is to be original with your answers and not repeat those which have already been written by your circle of friends….now go!

1. Finding a good pair of shoes which you buy for P299 and getting bugged with questions like: “Where did you get that beautiful, expensive- looking thing??”

2. Friendster testimonials which I didn’t have to solicit from my friends (as opposed to: paki-gawa naman ako ng testi or I will commit suicide, please please please??!)

3. Eating tuyo, sinangag and itlog ~ down-home cooking after a week gorging on gourmet food (as a lifestyle writer would say: ” sa sobrang sarap they now all taste the same!”)

4. Hearing someone say they read my shitty blog (whew! another voyeur there)

5. Staring at digital photos where I appear pretty (hahahah)

6. Travelling to a place (local or foreign) for the very first time

7. Kisses & hugs from my kiddies

8. Receiving presents, especially if you like them

9. Finishing a deadline early or on time

10. A cup of hot brewed coffee when I look like a dead man walking on my graveyard shift

11. Now I don’t know which is better: ice cream, prime rib steak or sex

      I tried to be original so didn’t add whatever you had listed already. Pero I agree with all your simplest pleasures except no. 2 only because I don’t really use my friendster account.

    4. vina says:

Funny how hard it is to think about simple things I got stucked at no. 9 for days.1. Looking at that photo of toothless Cean at the bottom of this site’s sidebar. 2. Seeing Cean sticking his doodles on his graffiti wall. 3. Being surprised at still having the stamina for making love after long hours of work. 4. Everything I cooked is finish to the last drop. Rice included. 5. Sharing earphones while watching DVD in bed with A before going to sleep. 6. Being told I look like an older sister to my son. 7. I buy jeans or a blouse and fits exactly to the size I pick which is practically my size for more than 10 years. 8. Getting comments about how they tried a recipe from my blog and liked it (which isn’t often). 9. Whenever it is Cean’s bedtime and that after all hugs and kisses he would always say he will call me if he has a problem. 10. Waking up to a bright new day. [...]
