A Few of My Favourite Things

The New Year has come and resolutions are flooding the blogosphere! However, I''m not one for resolutions. So instead of brainstorming about the future, I'm shifting my focus (yes, I do possess some) to the smaller, quite trivial things that I love. Here's a little list of what I favour as much as charming "silver white winters that melt into springs" (though not as poetically expressed):

1. Watching the foam smoothly being washed down my arm with water.

2. Holding a new script in your hands before rehearsal, every page crisp and crumple free.

3. Highlighting lines with the highlighter gliding smoothly across the page.

4. Holding the script in your hand after the last show, slight rips on the edges and the corners in small triangle
folds.

5. Fairy floss (aka cotton candy) quickly dissolving into nothing in your mouth.

6. Writing with ink and nibs.

7. Those minutes where my entire room is orange becase of the sunset and the way my curtains spread the
light.

8. Trying to carry a conversation using Year 9 school level Italian with a native speaker.

9. The word 'Champagne'.

10. Biting into pomegranate seeds.

11. Ripping envelopes open

12. Uncoiling my hair from rollers.

13. Looking at someone and knowing you're thinking the same thing.

14. Going out of my way to step on crisp looking leaves on the sidewalk.

15. Doing subtle dance steps in the middle of secondary roads.

So what's your favorite little something?
