So here's the opposite. What are those little things that make you happy for 5 minutes?
Nothing life changing, just those things that make you smile.
E.G.1: A brand new pair of socks. SO SOFT, you feel like you are walking on air
E.G 2: Waking up and looking at your alarm clock and realising you have another hour until you need to get out of bed

When it is cloudy, and the warm sun comes out. Bliss
Equally, when it's sunny, and the clouds emerge.Please explain?
Good idea, Prickles!No problem ;D
Please explain?
Why does no one get that I genuinely like overcast, cold weather better than so-called "perfect" (sunny, 20s) weather? :( Cool shade and reduced brightness are such a kind relief.Ah yep I get it. No my weather choices aren't unwise :P. I honestly adore rain, in any form - thunderstorm, drizzle, mist - I don't know what it is, rain just makes me so happy
But yeah, excellent thread, prickles, even if your weather choices are unwise. ;)
- Seeing people at my school on AtarNotes today! This was probably the highlight of my day :D
When it is a long drive to a beach, and you round the final corner and there it is sparkling in front of you, and you can't wait to get out of the car to smell the seaIn my family we open all the windows and see who can smell it first (when we go to the beach you can smell it before you see it) - of course everyone lies and claims to be the first to smell it, and then they get told we're still 15 min away and we know they're lying ::)
Seeing ducklings on your front lawn.
I got told this morning that my braces are coming off in 3 weeks (much earlier then I expected)!! ;DSo exciting! I remember when I was told that mine were coming off at the next appointment...don't think I've ever been that happy haha.
Seeing ducklings on your front lawn.
We had our ~twice-yearly hatching of ducklings in our back garden this morning!That's so pure. How many ducklings?
lol i got my braces off this year and i'm pretty sure they said it will be off "next appointment" on more than one occasion since the doctor wanted to do some final minor adjustmentsThis always happens. So much relief when you realise it's actually coming off.
We had our ~twice-yearly hatching of ducklings in our back garden this morning!Aww... but same question as K888.
How many ducklings?
That feeling you get when you think you failed an assignment, but you actually did really well in it, so you do that mini-celebration either mentally or physically.Oh Yeah...
@K888 @AngelWingsA great number.
I believe 11 on this occasion!
Absurd, prolonged jokes with a punchline that can be seen from a million miles awayThey're pretty good, aren't they?

The sport teachers at my school have the option of wearing blue or pink polo shirts. On Wednesdays they all wear pink. They've been doing it all year, but it took me several months to realise. It always makes me smile.Why Wednesdays in particular?

When you make a really good cup of tea. Haven't enjoyed one this much in a looooong time.
Do you think it's weather-related? Perhaps it's not the tea itself, but the situation/environment.Probably, but I'm trying to make myself feel good about my tea-making abilities.

They're also all over the Werribee/Williamstown lines too! It's cool!Speaking of trains, back when the year 12 exams were just starting this year, I was on the train to school when the train driver made an announcement wishing all the year 12s luck on their final exams and my heart melted.
(Oh wow look I'm making a post about trains that isn't about trains )

The smell of the sea ;D I haven’t been to the beach in far too long. I’m not really at the beach now, just across the road unfortunately, I still love the smell though.
Came down to the beach to think and enjoy the serenity.
Had a doggo come up and say hello to me while I was sitting down. Day made.
Came down to the beach to think and enjoy the serenity.I love dogs, and when they come over to say hi, it is certainly one of those little gems. Had a dog paw my foot and push its nose into my knee, and it is so cute!

He's 7 months old at this point, that's kitten territory... I think :DMy dogs are 5 & 6 years old and I still call them puppies.

:P
The same organism can experience both being a kitten and a cat whereas "turtle" and "tortoise" are labels applied to different families of species.The turtle has spoken :)
Additionally, the boundary between being a "kitten" or "cat" appears to be arbitrarily decided by the individual using the term.
In short - it is much easier to tell turtles and tortoises apart than kittens and cats
Getting 8 1/2 hours sleep for the first time in weeks! ;D ;D ;DOn a similar vein, sleeping in for the first time in ages. :)
Being able to sleep in and not having to wake up to an alarm!feels -in the same breath and also somewhat spiritual, turning off/deleting all your alarms from your phone and not having to count the hours of sleep you will get.
I've had to wake up at 6-7am everyday for the past week for work and finally being able to sleep in because of Lunar New Year is an amazing feeling!!
I saw the sun rise this morning as I was on the train. It was beautiful.
<<<Heaven on Earth>>>*sighs and sips contentedly*
The year 7’s are on camp, the school is so much quieter ;DWouldn't a teacher being on camp mean you would get substitute teachers?
As an added bonus a few of my teachers are on camp so those classes aren’t running (I have 3 classes running and English is only running because we have a SAC).
Wouldn't a teacher being on camp mean you would get substitute teachers?Not at my school. There’s lots of teachers on the camp. Unit 3 classes aren’t running, most other classes are in the resource centre (so they’re effectively private study but they have to stay at school, we don’t).
Not at my school. There’s lots of teachers on the camp. Unit 3 classes aren’t running, most other classes are in the resource centre (so they’re effectively private study but they have to stay at school, we don’t).So you get spare periods when this happens? :o
While buying groceries, I had a very lengthy and pleasant conversation my cashier (dw, I was the only customer) about the best way to make stuffed capsicum. She'll be trying my recipe and I'll be trying her recipe. Good day.
Pictures and recipes required on completion.
Library internet ;D sooo much faster than home internet. (As I say this someone behind me is complaining that their internet isn't working haha).haha gotta hate it when someone is stealing all ur internet ;D...but gotta luv it when ur the stealer ;)
Seeing a really packed train empty out at the station you're boarding the train. 😊Seeing a really packed train going one way at a station, while you get onto an empty train going the opposite direction :)
A good book recommended by a friend/s you can read 5 times over and still find fascinating.I told you my Goodreads account is a goldmine ;)
'Flowers for Algernon' is the book of the week!
@Calebark @insanipi I'm looking at you! <3
My aunt came over today. She and my mum went to the coffee shop a little while ago and my mum must have mentioned that I'm home sick because they gave her a biscuit for free for me. It was 2 chocolate cookies with raspberry cream in the middle. It was very delicious.
Hope you feel much better super soon! What kind of sick?hahahaha. Definitely not the best word choice
P.S. I initially read this as though you were missing home. #syntacticambiguity
hahahaha. Definitely not the best word choice
It's just a cold. I've had it all week but it was mostly just a sore throat and cough and I had my English SAC yesterday so I had to go to school. It wasn't that bad this morning but I didn't have any important classes so I figured I'd stay home and catch up on sleep. Very glad I did, I've had cold medicine and panadol and my head is still pounding and completely blocked up. At least my throat isn't sore anymore I suppose :-\
Having enough time to read on the train (have been busy with lecture watching / assignment doing while travelling lately).I 100% love that feeling... but then I get too carried away and finish a whole book :-[
I have a few books on my to-read list and I'm excited to be able to read them! May or may not be 200 pages through a 1000 page book...
Despite the quibbles and occasional arguments... I'd like to say this :,)true...
The little things that our parents do (especially mums) do, without us asking (but them knowing our needs ). <3, never take it for granted.
(Y'all don't forget to thank your mum today)
I beg to differ. Getting days off after sacs is the best. I have a student free day after umat!That feeling after a sac is finished 8)
Being organised and being able to sleep for 8 hours even with two assignments due the next daythat would be nice :)
Two books I ordered were delivered today. Bloody excited.I too love that feeling!
I too love that feeling!
Which books? ;D
Finally getting round to finishing The Silmarillion, the greatest literary work of all time, imo. It's brilliant, the universe creation that Tolkien put in place, but I've always struggled to fit in time to read it. Now it's done and I can just sit there for a moment considering the brilliance of what I just read.
My first Metro ride in years...
I now have a new friend named Mikey! :D
How did this eventuate? ;DComing home from Synchrotron excursion.
My mom just introduced my 7 yo brother to the riddle that goes:Isn't it awesome being able to feel superior when younger siblings don't understand something that we had to be taught only yesterday... :P
"If there is a kilogram of feathers and a kilogram of stone, which one weighs more?"SpoilerTHEY BOTH WEIGH THE SAME, ha I got you didn't I
Anyway, he can't wrap his little head around the fact that rock isn't always the heaviest - all of the measuring cups and weights are out on the kitchen counter as we attempt to show him that 'lighter' and 'heavier' things can still weigh the same sometimes! :))
One of the perks of being in a really small school is that you are cared about much more, both individually and as a group. Recently all these parents and teachers have been showering us Yr 12s with so much awesome food, we got scones with jam and cream today, it just feels so good to feel that people who you wouldn't even know without school care about you! ;D
Finishing any coding assignment whatsoever. And seeing that your code actually works.

They all had a little encouraging quotes on top and tasted AMAZING.
He also wrote our class a poem that he read out AND hand wrote us a card each.
I have noticed this is a thing that happens at the end of year 12 at my school, I have friends in other classes whose teachers are doing similar.
Does this sort of thing happen at all schools?
I feel so blessed.

You get used to it. The motivation that keeps me going is, there's only one way I can go.. up. Moving soon.I used to live in the middle of nowhere and still got NBN and fast internet
Really funny too, I live less than 15km from the CBD and still get that.
I live right on the exchange boundary. So the dist from house to exchange is around 2km. That on ADSL2+ in a severely built up area. Picture perfect conditions.

Hello my fam!!! ;D
Since July I took a break from the forums due to exam preparation because I was worried of being distracted online so I just took the step *with a heavy heart* to take a break. Another reason was that I was being stalked by someone from my school, which made me feel quite uncomfortable...
But now I've let go of those anxious feelings, plus, I have 3 more exams and then done!!!! (Legal, Eng Lang and French) So thought to come back on!! And you bet it feels sooo great!!!
Hope everyone's well and see you around guys!! :D

When a certain chain of libraries (Melbourne City) extends my borrow for an extra 2 weeks when I renewed my loans because it's holiday time
Borrowed books from Boroondara today. Same story - all the way through to Jan 8. I was afraid I'd have to renew them :) [with a couple of renews, a lot of what I borrow stays out for at least 8 weeks...]Nice! I had to renew some items that had been out for the maximum three weeks, and they should be due back on the 26th, but they're now due on the 16th of Jan, which is grouse. :D
Listening to someone play the piano. Idk why I love it so much, but I do :D

Favourite music quote: "From the heart, may it return again to the heart!" (Beethoven)Well he wasn't deaf for his entire life. I know he was deaf by then but I think it helps that he had a very musical life regardless. I feel as though provided you've had such an exposure, even if you start going deaf you can still "hear" it all in your head anyway, or at least how you imagine it would be heard.
Sums up music perfectly.
Can anyone explain how a deaf composer composes such hopeful and wonderful music, such as the 9th Symphony (Ode to Joy)?
Well he wasn't deaf for his entire life. I know he was deaf by then but I think it helps that he had a very musical life regardless. I feel as though provided you've had such an exposure, even if you start going deaf you can still "hear" it all in your head anyway, or at least how you imagine it would be heard.
That and there's probably also some melody/harmony writing techniques that you could employ anyway. Although Beethoven was going into the Romantic era he still had some classical techniques. (By the end of the classical era a lot of composition techniques were becoming common, even though they were about to be dominated by others.)
Although having said that, in my opinion, the most profound change from his deafness was the style of music. When I compare Pathetique to Appassionata for example, I just feel that the first is somewhat "more rigid" than the second. And I feel music that delves too far into the Baroque/Classical periods just feels comparatively more blunt.
Having perfect pitch I understand how it could be heard in his head, yet, the 9th Symphony is absolutely mammoth-orchestral parts, 4-part choir, vocal soloists; if you have read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heiligenstadt_Testament it amazes me how he was able to hear so many parts, let alone find such hope!There are reasons why he's renowned after all. He's overrated but I don't fault it - many of Beethoven's pieces are in my favourites of classical music. I certainly can't do what he could.

That's a good feature to have in a computer. ;DIt does indeed. My old laptop took at least 10 minutes to turn on if I didn't hold down the power buttons to force restart it, hence the thrill I get every time I press the power button on the new one and it turns on instantly.

I was one of the lunatics that lined up at 5am on Sunday for the free Harry Potter and the Cursed Child final dress rehearsal tickets (Part One is tonight, Part Two is Thursday Night). Ended up getting amazing tickets in the stalls and I can't concentrate on anything else.
Oh my goodness! That's such a great opportunity. I honestly wish I lived in Victoria so I could have done the same. My parents are going to see it in june/july but they didn't get me a ticket :'( oh well. Have fun, it honestly sounds like so much fun!

I had a late day in the lab, and my parents were happy to put aside dinner for me. I ended up leaving for home earlier than I planned. My youngest sibling Sarah was apparently all worried that I would be sad because I wouldn't have dinner with everyone else- and asked dad to wait for me to come home first.Aww that is a really lovely and wholesome of your sibling to do! I think we can all learn from such a wonderful act of kindness. Really brightened my day to read this. ^-^
Sometimes, the little siblings can teach us things too.
I'm going to uni in person tomorrow for the first time since March!! :DOoo how exciting! 😍
So... this Friday is apparently a public holiday, although I’m not entirely sure what for (someone please enlighten me, as I’ve had various answers) and whether it’s a Victorian or nation-wide thing.
Either way, I’m just thankful we have one; it feels like ages since we had a public holiday.
AFAIK, it's the "Friday before the AFL Grand Final" public holiday! Just a VIC thing :P
From what ik, it's just a victoria thing. Gotta love having a public holiday for a sport aha
Yes. It moved from end of September because the Grand Final moved date, and was also renamed to "Thankyou Day". Proud of our Victorian cats, big and little, for keeping an away final in Victorian hands ;)
Not to be confused with the much longer history behind Cup Day holiday. Which is what? Under two weeks away? We have a mandatory closure for the Monday before Cup Day as well...
