I like stuff...and it makes me happy!


Hello there!

So today I kinda woke up not in the best of moods, I just felt a little bit poop, so I thought I would make a post about things that just make me happy, mostly to cheer me up and to maybe share more about myself. Some of these are random, and are mostly just silly little things that make me smile! 

Here goes!

1. DOCTOR WHO!!
This had to be number one, and since the new series is starting in 9 days (which I am totally unprepared for!) I had to put this in! Doctor who for me is just this thing that can be nostalgic and new at the same time, and I love that. I have been a Doctor who fan since 2005 since the reboot, and I am a proud whovian! 

10 years worth of collecting!


2. DVD's/movies in general

As it is probably becoming more obvious I love films, I love going to the cinema, talking about films, reading about films, and I also like collecting and organising DVD's, I know everyone is practically all about netflix and online streaming, and that's great I love that to, but there is something to me about having a collection, and the whole ceremony of putting a disk into a DVD player and leaving it on the menu screen as you go get snacks and get comfy! I dunno maybe I am just weird but it makes me happy! 



3. Lego! 
What more can I say! I love Lego, unfortunately I don't have a huge collection of Lego, because it is not cheap, but I have quite a few really good sets that I have accumulated over the years, but most of that is sadly in a suitcase with my brother ready to be transported to my new house! But I got this cool set for my birthday! 

Don't ask me why the flash is standing on the front of the batmobile....


4. Books. 

Again there is not a lot I can say about this because nowadays pretty much everyone reads and enjoys books, well I kinda hope they do! See for me this caught on late, I don't mean that I have only just started appreciating books but you know most avid readers start in early childhood but I think that for me in early childhood I was reading animal encyclopaedia's with my dad and I didn't really appreciate really good literature until I started studying it in school, especially in secondary school when I had the best English teacher who introduced me to the book below, and it has remained In my top books because not only did it make me want to read more books of the same author but it makes me think of my English teacher and how she thought it was cool that a 14 year old would be so into Henry James! so yay! 



5. Comic Books.
Yes. How can you not look at the picture below and think that is beautiful! Anyway...I started reading comic books actually not that long ago maybe 3 years ago? My brother used to read graphic novels and he had a few comic books lying around when I was young, but never really an extensive collection, we got our daily comic book heroes from the TV, with the old X-men and Spider-man cartoons! I remember that the first comic book I bought was from a supermarket, it was a fantastic four one, and another one, They were like on number 29 or something stupid like that and I had been wanting to buy a comic for so long I hadn't really thought through the whole series system but I bought it and just fell in love! (even though I was slightly confused with the story line) But I stil love comic books I don't have much time to buy them but one of my lovely brothers has kept my collection going and even managed to get me signed comics! So happy happy happy!!

These are just some that I have re-read recently. 
Now we get on to the slightly random things.....anyway 

6. Going to live shows! 

The atmosphere, the whole process of buying a ticket and waiting for that date to come around! I just love it all! I like most Live shows but music events are what make me the most happy, so much so that I would love so much to be a part of an event team, just so I could stand back watch a performance and think I helped them put this show on.....oops...went in to dream mode then....yikes. 

Most recent tickets

7.  My journal/organising book thing....

Yes, this houses all my lists, goals and dreams, and the odd rant...even holds a secret Tardis!
Also featuring my batman Pyjamas....(I am so cool)




8. This Fridge.

I know I could make some joke about how that's where the food is..ha ha ha...but I actually just love that my mum has covered it in cook fridge magnets and really cure pictures! 

Featuring my have brothers...yes I have five brothers....(that is an old school photo btw they are all older than me!) 


9. My laptop (ofc) and My headphones
Both a staple part of who I am! its not very often that I go a day without opening my laptop, or putting my headphones on. As you should gather music means a lot to me, so being able to listen to music whenever I like without pissing people off means a lot to me too! Also the stickers reflect a lot more stuff that makes me happy! 


10. And last in the formal list is YOUTUBE!
Obviously I couldn't make a list of things that make me happy without including YouTube, Its what I can ascape into when I don't feel like being sociable, its something that I can keep up with and just have a little dose of happiness, if I am watching a you-tuber, or watching the latest trailers for films, it just makes me happy!



So I am also gonna put in some honourable mentions, because you know tag line....I like a lot of stuff...






so yeah....random honourable mentions, I love the smell of playdoh, My cat Alan! Make up, I am not even sorry I love collecting make up and putting it on sue me! I love my collection of Disney plastic cups, because even though I am technically a grown woman I love disney. Coloured pens make me happy, this is because they make my scruffy lists look a little bit prettier. 
And finally, this card that one of my brothers got me for my birthday, because its amazing. 

Anyway I am sorry that was very random but sometimes when you think about all the little day to day things that put a smile on your face you can start to appriciate things more, and I am grateful that even the smallest thing like a plastic cup can make me so happy. Obviously there are more things in life that make me happy and more substantial things but this is just a glimpse at some stuff that I think I need to say thank you too! I know that seems weird, I can't thank a DVD but you know what I mean I just think without silly little things like this I wouldn't be keeley!

phew anyway Enjoy, and try and think what makes you happy, even if it is small!
