30 Things That Make Me Happy

Happy Monday friends!

When is the last time you heard someone say that Monday was their favorite day of the week? Probably never! On this particular Monday it is the beginning of finals week and I am getting my oil changed. Two super fun activities right?! In order to remind myself that Monday’s don’t HAVE to be awful, and mainly distract myself from these super cheesy soap operas playing in this waiting room, I decided to come up with a list of things that make me the happiest!

1. Fresh flowers

My allergies disagree with this one but having pretty flowers is seriously one of my favorite things! Sidenote: Flowers from Kroger literally last so long, I don’t know why but they are always the best. Fellas, go get ya girl some flowers from Kroger 😉

2. Scented candles

I go through candles SO FAST, and you can bet I stock up when B&BW has their sales!

3. Protein pancakes

You’re probably thinking that this is super random but my latest obsession is protein pancakes. I have them every morning and have a post with my favorite protein pancake recipes coming soon 🙂

4. Queso

Okay this post is about to just become a list of all my favorite foods, which could go on and on. Ya girl is definitely a foodie.

5. Working out

Lifetime Fitness is seriously my saving grace. I could spend forever there.

6. Adventures

I love love love exploring new places, who wants to plan a summer road trip with me?! 🙂

7. Taking pictures

I’m sure everyone could see this one coming haha everybody knows how annoyingly obsessed I am with photography.

8. Country music

I live for finding new music and could spend all night driving around blaring some country. I’ll link my Spotify one of these days! Check out Dylan Schneider if you’ve never heard him before. I keep “Wannabe”, “Rockstar”, and “It’s A Guy Thing” on repeat! *insert praise hands*

9. Fashion

Duh.

10. Good lighting

As a broadcast major and photography obsessed gal I appreciate good lighting more than you know! Lighting is everythingggg.

11. Netflix

When I heard that they would be coming out with another season of 13 Reasons Why I seriously celebrated.

12. TJ Maxx and Homegoods

I could and have spent an entire day here and it was honestly the best thing ever, just not for my bank account.

13. My major

College is tough but it all becomes so much more enjoyable when you find a major that you love. I’ve been on both sides of this. I started off college in a major that I hated and seriously struggled with. When I changed my major to broadcast media it’s like everything shifted. I seriously love what I do which makes it not even feel like “work” most of the time!

14. Nice people

Genuinely nice people make me so happy because I know how hard that is to find.

15. Girls who support each other instead of competing with each other

Girls are mean and petty and exhausting and all of the above. It is so refreshing when you meet girls who empower one another instead of tearing each other down.

16. Blogging

There is something so refreshing about having my own little corner of the internet where I can share my thoughts and what inspires me. I have met some of the sweetest girls through blogging and am so thankful for this online community that allows me to do what I love.

17. Blogger mail

Getting mail should have been number one on this list! I love mail, it’s so fun! I would put my address on here if it were safe so we could all just send each other fun letters all the time but that probably wouldn’t be the best idea haha! In a world that is so technology based and works through emails and what not it is so fun to actually receive a package every now and then!

18. Passionate people/conversations

Having a conversation with someone who is SO passionate about what they are talking about is so awesome. I love it.

19. Fresh nails

My nails are ALWAYS painted white. It’s been that way for the past year now. White is so classic plus it goes with everything! I should probably branch out but the white always wins! haha

20. Shopping

Sorry mom.

21. Editing

I could spend an entire day straight editing videos and never get bored.

22. Juicing

If you have me on snapchat you’ve probably seen one of those “nasty looking green drinks” (that’s how most people describe them.) Juicing is so yummy plus I am not a fan of eating veggies raw so it’s a way to get in those vegetables in a much better tasting way!

23. Sports

Playing sports my entire life it is a given that I can’t get enough! Bring me to a game and I’ll be the happiest lil thang!

24. Statement jewelry

Give me allll of the chunky necklaces, tassel earrings, and arm candy you can think of!

25. Puppies

Everyone loves puppies.

26. Good Eyebrows

Girls you know what I’m talking about. Good brows make ALL the difference!

27. The number 4.

This was my number through high school sports, it’s a fav!

28. Rainy days

As long as I can stay in!

29. Clean sheets

Straight out of the dryer, yep.

30. YOU

Everyone who reads and supports my blog makes me the happiest. You have no idea how much it means to me! 🙂

I was watching The Secret awhile back on Netflix. If you haven’t seen it you need to go watch it pronto! It talked about how you can manifest different things in life depending on the vibes you send out, whether they be good or bad. So here’s to throwing out some positive vibes on this Monday!
