Finding happiness

Hey Guys,

Exams are approaching at warp speed... ARGHHH. So in light of that I am off out searching for things that make me happy, just to try and ease the stress...

1. Chocolate. aka food from the gods. At the moment I am loving having a tiny bit of dark chocolate when I come home form school kind of like a reward for completing the day.

2. 5 seconds of summer. This band makes me so happy, if I am having a rough day I just go on Spotify and get them on ( or Fall out boy) and I am in a much better mood. I love everything about these four: their music, personalities, everything... ( Although Ashton is my favourite... It`s the hair...)

3. Youtube. If I have had a rubbish day, when I get home I`ll watch one of my favourite videos ( Dan and Phil photobooth challenge or anything by Jack Howard) and suddenly I just feel so much better cause even if its for 5 minutes I am distracted.

4. My cat. Even though he can sometimes be a dick, he is just the cutest ball of stupidity and fur...

5. My family... I know cheesy, but if I have had a bad day, yes they can be the most annoying people ever but a hug  and a mug of hot chocolate later and I am back to my sarcastic self.

6.  Make it or Break it. The. Best. Show. Ever. I have literally been obsessed with this using my brother`s free Netflix trial I almost got through the last series, then the trial ended... boo. So now I am in the lurch.... I don't know if Lauren gets better or if Payson, Jordan or Kayile get into the Olympic team....

7. Naps. These have been overlooked for the longest time. At school in break I get down under my desk pilling up my coat and jumper into a pillow, put on some slow music ( Amnesia or The Call are personal favourites) and have ten minutes of eyes closed and relaxing time. Absolute bliss.

8. Belting out song lyrics and bringing out my best dad moves. I know there is that sciencey reason behind this as listening to music releases endorphins. But there is just something so satisfyingly happy about dancing and singing like no one is watching.


These are a few of my favourite things (might have just sung Sound of Music there) to do when I am feeling down, I hope this helps if any of you are feeling down.

Love,
