Happiness is...(#2)

Each week I look back on the little things that made me happy - to remind myself that the world isn't so bad, even after a hard day.

This week, happiness is....


  • Receiving a surprise present from a colleague at work on Wednesday morning. Beautiful, and incredibly random act of kindness!
  • Celebrating my housemates birthday in our onesies with a huge Dominos Pizza order and very cute cupcakes.
  • Working in London on Monday - a change of scenery on a  beautiful sunny day.
  • Meeting my parents and cousin in London for the day on Saturday - Chelsea and Battersea are just beautiful.
  • Spending Sunday unexpectedly at home thanks to train cancellations. This meant a roast dinner, home comforts, spending time with my family and a delicious marshmallow-y hot chocolate.
  • Starting John Green's The Fault in our Stars - I am only 60 pages in but can tell it'll be one of my favorites!

What made you happy this week?

  1. This is such a lovely post which made me smile! I am glad you had a good time in London - I live very near Battersea and love it! I do a similar post most fridays called Five Things Friday. It is so good to think about the happy things! http://www.londonkat.com/2014/01/five-things-friday-7.html

  3. That book from John Green is amazing! I just finished it, although my first language is not English it wasn't that easy for me to read but it's a great book, I won't spoil anything though ;)

    1. Wow, I can't imagine how tough it is to read a book in another language but I'm so glad you loved it too!
