LOVE/LIKE (Or Not Hate!)

A while ago, I made a list of things that I hate. Today, let's make a list of things I love. Or like. Or at least don't hate.
  • the song Indigo by Tom Milsom. It contains my favorite intro to any song ever. EVER.
  • Tom Milsom himself. He's talented, intelligent, witty, good at what he does and blue-headed. What more could one ask for in a YouTube musician?
  • My blogging cousin. And my other cousin, who strictly doesn't have her own blog (coughs)
  • my friends who make me food/allow me to steal food from them
  • Blondies
  • Cheese ravioli
  • The funny things my brother says
  • The Penderwicks series
  • Paper Towns, by John Green. The book that defined my fledgling teenagerdom
  • colorful socks
  • red hair
  • YouTube
  • guitars
  • piano
  • people who play guitar
  • people who play piano (like my other cousin who has this friend who hasn't blogged in a while)
  • unused notebooks
  • book sellers, independent or not
  • The Beatles. Without a doubt.
  • teachers who know what they're doing
  • bicycles
  • Doctor Who
  • cinnamon gum
  • being able to comfort someone who is sad
  • Harry Potter, of bloody course
  • public libraries
  • having a flock of people competing for your attention
  • video chatting
  • Threadless, the best t-shirt store in the WHOLE WORLD
  • hot chocolate
  • fingerless gloves, but only for looks. Functionally they're kind of useless
  • Thursdays
  • Saturday mornings
  • skinny jeans
  • chocolate muffins
  • skim milk
  • iced tea
  • people who are willing to go out of their way to help you
  • people with laugh lines
  • the autumn
  • the calm silence of people who are perfectly comfortable being quiet in each other's presence
  • the 'Artistic Effects' option on Microsoft Word
  • journals
  • the smell after the rain
  • that summer combination smell of sunscreen and and freshly-cut grass
  • lavender (the herb)
  • air conditioning
  • Wikipedia
  • the film (500) Days of Summer because of the nonlinear fashion in which it's told
  • the video for Life in Technicolor II by Coldplay because they made little puppets for the crew. That appeals to me in some weird way
  • having a clean room
  • having a lot of time to just...read
  • clever parodies (like California Dorks by Skyway Flyer)
Actually, I want to go to bed, so I'm going to stop it here. But there is more. (Wow! There's more! I don't hate everything!)

  1. I wondered when you'd get around to this.
    I am on it? That was unexpected. I thought I had been disowned. Does that mean I'm undisowned? Or owned? Or whatever you call it?
    "Harry Potter, of bloody course"...agreed.
    And Skyway Flyer is a BAND? I wasn't sure what it was. In fact, I just saw it in passing today for the first time, on Jason Munday's YouTube account.

  2. Well, just because I don't HATE you doesn't mean I like you.
    Just kidding. Fine. I guess you're reowned. Or undisowned. (I don't think there's a word for it- I don't think it ever happens.)
