Random Things That Made Me Go "Whee!"

There are many bad things in life. But I believe that at the end of the day, the good things far outnumber the bad. Some people say that one should count his blessings but that's just impossible! Would it be really be possible to give a finite number to something that's infinite? Silly, isn't it? And I think it'll be stupid to try.

So there I was one night, lying in bed, trying to think of some of the good things that made me love life. There are some that made me laugh. There are some that made me weep for joy. But then, there are just those that are so silly and childish, they made me go "whee!". And this made me wonder. Despite the jadedness and the experiences, the inner kid in me has never really gone and probably will never be. He' still there, occasionally bonking me in the noggin' and trying to knock some sense of humor back into me.

Some things that made this little kid happy:

Cute Animals and Silly People. It's an addiction. Whenever I log onto the internet, there's never a time that a window of icanhascheezburger.com or failblog.org is never open. I always check these sites for updates and they have never failed to give me a chuckle. How can one just not love those lolcats, even if they don't love you back? (awww...) Or not laugh at people's random silliness, and I mean laugh in a good-natured way not the point-then-laugh kind?



Gag Shows. While I do enjoy comedy shows that make you think, sometimes you just wanna dumb things down, relax your mind, and enjoy some mind-numbing fun. First show I can think about? Bubble Gang. It's been over a decade and somehow they still manage to churn out fresh jokes. Some of the jokes and humor formulae are old though, but who cares? Yaya and Angelina, anyone?



Amusement Parks. I love amusement parks. It's too bad I haven't visited one in years but the memories still put a smile on my face. Food? Check. Adrenaline-pumping rides? Check. Weird souvenirs? Check. Hmm, I'm not a sucker for hardcore rollercoasters and I probably wouldn't want to ride one again, even though they were fun. If I do go visit an amusement park again, I'd probably have more fun riding the carousel. Or maybe Ocean Park's cable cars.



Good Food. Ice cream. Cakes. Pies. Pancakes. It is pretty obvious in my previous posts that I love food. The best time to eat them? When you're depressed about something. The worst time to eat them? When you're depressed about something. But hey, no matter your mood, they will always taste good! Good food is man's best friend, in my opinion... with all due respect to dogs and dog-lovers. =)



Video Games. My all time fave. So what if I'm a nerd, you got a problem with it? =P My current favorite: World of Warcraft, but I'm planning on taking on something less hardcore in a few months. The $15 a month subscription fee is a PitA but it's really a hell lot of fun! Besides, who doesn't like to roleplay a giant walking, talking cow that can transform into a bear, two types of cats, a seal, a giant owl bird, a raven, or a tree? Hmm?



Life is so much fun. I feel bad for those people who dwell too much in misery. I could only hope that one day, a lolcat will wander their way and make them realize how much they're missing.

Whee...
