Joy from a bottle

No..not that kind of bottle..!

The weirdest thing happened to me today,well..it isn't entirely weird considering the fact that I was the protagonist in this little scene, but anyway...was rummaging through the kitchen cabinets today when I found a kids water bottle. It was one of those water bottles that say kids who are like four or five would use..it was pink with a yellow base and a blue cap..and when u opened the cap a little straw popped up..!! (Oh..and it had two bears on the front...! )

Anyway, I found the bottle and the first thing I felt was pure joy...I kid you not people..I looked at the bottle and I was happy..for what reason I have absolutely no clue but I couldn't help but look at that bottle with this five year old look of glee on my face...!! I'm 18 for heavens sake, I'm supposed to be that happy just by looking at a bottle of booze but NO instead I apparently am more than joyful over a mere water bottle for kids..!! Go figure..!! I filled it up with water and actually sipped up the entire contents through the cute little straw and after that I was happier (if that was even possible)....!!! I was completely satisfied , like a little child who had just finished his business for the day on the potty and who was extremely pleased with himself..!!!

I'm the kind of person who gets these cheap thrills out of the stupidest of things, say by blowing bubbles or bursting a blown up plastic bag or sitting on a balloon, so..I'm not especially surprised by this little episode that happened today..but still..I find that I never fail to amaze myself with what a kid I am sometimes..!!

It's awesome to be able to get such joy from the little things in life.

And to never grow up. I will forever have the five year old little girl I was in my heart. Which is why it's so fun to have my OWN five year old little girl to play with! lol

LOVE your blog! The pink-ness is making me most jealous!

First things first, I think you have the coolest blog design ever. I've seen a lot of blogs in my 17 years of life but have never come across something so creative, neat and simply put - amazing! If I were the judge at that website where you've been nominated for the best design, I bet all my money(not that I have much of it, but still) that you would have won. Are you a web designer or something because you seem to be a pro at designing a.k.a. HTML and CSS.

Second thing, I totally understand what you mean in this post! I feel this is exactly the way one should live life. Finding joys in simple things is amazing. Life is so complicated these days that the smallest and unimportant things can make you so happy sometimes. Whenever I go around on the roads of my city, I wish I could buy all those yo yo's and balloons and stuff they sell on the roads. It's so much fun! Looking forward to reading more from you :)

i wouldnt say its the stupidest of things......in fact, u should do some research on "transitional objects"... maybe just google it.....and am sure that what u are doing will make sense to you.

Shayeri said...

i don't even know you, but i'm here to say you make the AWESOMEST skins ever!! they're beautiful and different and the one you made for michelle had me overwhelmned.

i used to make my own skins too. not half as gorgeous as these of course, but i could do it on the old blogger, which was much easier than this. ever since i got the new blogger, i've had to live with the boring skins blogger provides.

i know it's terribly "out of the blue" and "sudden", but can you make me or help me make a skin for my blog?

i'd appreciate it. :)

@D
Childhooood is right..! sweet isn't it? :)

@shayeri
