Happiness Meme

[livejournal.com profile] dragynflies tagged me. Eight people, eight days, eight things that make me happy.

I'm tagging [livejournal.com profile] ashesfor_trees, [livejournal.com profile] ateenwriter, [livejournal.com profile] aurilly, [livejournal.com profile] ayalecia, [livejournal.com profile] broodyletons, [livejournal.com profile] candlewaxdreams, [livejournal.com profile] eternal_moonie, and [livejournal.com profile] sarahetc. There. I've just pretty much exhausted my mutual friends list.

I was thinking about it, and I think on all eight days what's going to make me most happy is coffee, seeing as I have eight days of finals approaching. But that would be pure laziness and not nearly distracting enough for me.

So, for day one, what has made me most happy is enjoying a bowl of tomato soup with a dollop of sour cream on top.

Yum, tomato soup! I've never tried it with sour cream.

Good luck on your exams!

No exams, just PAPERS. I am up to my elbows in papers. Or I would be, if I weren't writing fanfic instead.

You have my deepest sympathies! Be a good girl and save your fic writing for treats -- carrots at the end of strings. ;)

But people like fic! Nobody likes documenting the cultural aspects of American anti-Chinese immigration laws and how they shape the narrative of Maxine Hong Kingston's memoir The Woman Warrior.

Do try tomato soup with sour cream, though. I never liked tomato soup until I did!

Well, I'm sure your your professor will like your paper. ;) What do you study?

I'll try a dollop of sour cream next time I have tomato soup! Only now I'm cursing you for getting that awful Daisy sour cream song stuck in my head... ;)

Comp/Rhet. Looking to teach college classes and whatnot, perhaps as early as next semester.

ALSO. Do you have an email or chat or something, or do you check LJ PMS? I have something to show you!

Oh, very cool!

My email is my screenname at gmail. :)

I love coffee. With a lot of cream and sugar. OH lord.

I take mine black, unless I need to finish it in a hurry. I'll add cream to cool it down.

black like your soul?

Ironically enough Dt. Pepsi will probably be my beverage of choice to survive finals.
GO US.

Oh, and that's ironic cause it's what will be keeping me happy, too.
