what made you smile today?

Aisling · 12-07-2005, 05:08 PM

a.k.a the happy thread.
just now when i was coming to this computer lab in college there was a little boy walking behind me, then he ran in front of me, hand held a door open for me to go through. we were on a long corridor with loads of doors and he kept running ahead of me so that he could hold each door.. it was so cute because he was so small, a whole lot of effort had to go into actually opening the door. i thought it was the sweetest thing!! and im still smiling because of him (i hope he didnt get lost)
so here, i want everyone to acknowledge something that made you smile during the day. it makes the day so much better. i think.

Arpie · 12-07-2005, 05:14 PM

Aw that's so cute.

Hmm...finding a red Christmas novelty KitKat tin, full of KitKats. Yum...

Quite materialistic I know.

Aisling · 12-07-2005, 05:26 PM

lol. seriously, kitkats are so underrated!

Uno- X · 12-07-2005, 05:39 PM

Somebody special telling me, I love you Una

I'm grinning like a feck. Actually I'm grinning every day then!

Wow! you sure go right to the point, no trouble in picking out gifts fro you

being told my nephew looks like me and making my mom laugh.

Gatsby · 12-08-2005, 04:52 AM

when u feel kinda low and down and knowing that a friend can ring you and go for a pint and have a laugh and make everything fit right in its place

friendship is what made me smile today

Rovena · 12-08-2005, 05:05 AM

Writing an awesome English research paper...even though I didnt get a minute of sleep last night (over 30 hours without sleeping)

This thread...

A text message, saying "I miss you"...and knowing that the person who said it really meant it..

SisterMidnight · 12-08-2005, 06:29 AM

beautiful soul-soothing music

cille · 12-08-2005, 09:46 AM

my sweet colleagues

melissas flattering myspace messages

Juzzza · 12-08-2005, 10:06 AM

Couple of things...

First, as I was taking my son (he is 6) to school, I asked him about the Christmas Cards he was taking for his friends... he had written 'Free Card Inside' on the envelopes... now as a marketer, I thought how cute! My kid is a natural!

But it turns out he actually put two cards in each envelope, so his friends could decorate their own card and pass it on to their friends... now the miserable, suspicious bastard that I am made me say "Did you do that so they send the card back to you?" He went quiet for a minute and then said:

"Good idea Daddy, next time I will put two free cards inside!"

And the other thing that made me smile is that the NYC version of Sold, is going to be Track of the Day at Garageband.com on 15 December. The old acoustic version of Sold was Track of the Day back in July 2004!

2: A girl who passed me on the way to lectures this morning. She had her personal stereo on, and it was obviously her favourite song, because she skipped up onto the pavement with the biggest grin on her face. That made me smile today.

ooh i work in a sort of a callcenter too and the most beautiful girl i've ever seen (not model-beautiful, she just oozes the beauty of someone who isn't aware of it herself) was recently hired and i just love to look at her through the day - being near to her even makes me blush...

...my boyfriend says he allows me to have an office girl crush, god (whoever she is) bless tolerant men...

toffeepop · 12-10-2005, 06:32 PM

finishing one part of the b-day present for a friend of mine (don't laugh it's a spongebob & patrick fairy light, she loves that cartoon)

Having a fantastic day with family and friends. One time this one time that - and most of all going to a concert of my former choir which I now gave up that I'm gonna leave performing part 1-3 of the Weihnachtsoratorium by J.S. Bach, my favoutite composer.
Just a great day!!!
