Here we are again. Insomnia and its effects on my overall condition. Actually I'm sleeping (not now, of course), at least I think so. But it's more some kind of permanent dozing off and waking up again, but no real and healthy sleep. It got really weird when I woke up yesterday and had a bruise on my left cheek. I have no idea where it comes from. Maybe my teddy was beating me up while I was in this pseudo-state of sleep.

Maybe it's because I get used to sleeping after midnight. I do it frequently in Bandung. Mostly because of midterms or papers (or watching DVDs). Now I can't sleep early. Even if I lay my head on 10, closing my eyes, thinking nothing, I will be sleeping 1 hours after that. I even tried counting sheep last night!

Arrgh..

Anyway, trying to lighten up my mood a little bit, I made a list.

Things That Make Me Smile

• Having discussions during dinner with my family (Dad, Mom, lil' bro, and lil' sis)
• Talking while sitting closely with my boyfriend. He makes me laugh a lot.
• Watching Friends. I'm rewatching the season from season 1. I am up to the mid of season 4 now.
  
• Watching my cat, even if she is just sleeping peacefully
• Being in my room, listening to jazzy songs, reading people's blog, when it is raining outside
• Entering a bookstore, and having a huge pile of books in your hands a while later.
• Same goes with DVDs
• Finish a very good book that just lingers in your head after awhile
• Going out from the theater after watching a very good movie. Especially with my boyfriend.
• Having a delicious meal
• Entering boutiques, browsing and actually find out something nice that I can afford.
• Cute shoes
• Hanging out with friends, making jokes, talking about life especially people, if you know what I mean.
• Reading comments I got on Friendster
• Photos of people, landscapes, buildings, anything that comes up beautiful.
• Babies. With their cute little hands and soft cheek
• Paintings
• European architecture
• Watching Discovery Travel & Living. All the good foods, wonderful places, and amazing building I would like to experience my self.
• Creating something with Photoshop. It'll makes me happier if it turns out right.
• Writing a review of movie or book.
• Starring out the window while in the car or any other vehicle.
• Check my mailbox and see that I have email
• A very cold ice drink (cola or tea)
• Thinking of things in this list alone make me smile :)

See, there's many great things in the world that waiting for me to enjoy. I don't have any reason to be cranky.
