Adventures of China Doll: Christmas Edition

HELLOOOOO! this is kind of a late christmas entry put whatever. So, ever since i was young, my mom has been calling chinadoll or "china." she explains that i had beautiful porcelain skin when i was a bebe. my cousins to this day still make fun of me and my nicknames. so, my grandma got me a chinese doll for christmas. thanks grandma! i decided to have china do fun things around my aunt's house. enjoy!

things that make me happy

i just read one of my favorite blogs by taza. she made a post about her favorite things right now. i also just watched a magical film called 'le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain' (for the 50th time). after reading and watching these things, i can't help thinking about what makes me happy. here's my list so far:

ONE.
the unicyclist that rides throughout campus

TWO.
painting my nails

THREE.
getting unexpected messages from friends via facebook

FOUR.
getting unexpected notes (on my car or in my notebook) from a certain someone

FIVE.
when 'build me up buttercup' comes on the radio

SIX.
the fall breeze

i'm happy just writing this post! huzzah! what makes you happy? *cough* reading this blog *cough* JUST KIDDING! but, seriously...
