Tip 6: 40 Things to Make You Happy

Hey there. So today's tip post is a little filler, as it's an in between type of thing. We'll be starting our next theme this coming Monday, so be on the lookout for that! I apologize for the late post once again, but I really wanted to make this a post worth reading, so I decided to wait until Tuesday so I could edit it and add a few pictures. You must be aware of how much I love my pictures :)
I know that there are hundreds, maybe thousands of posts with this same title, or same general idea. However instead of just coming up with 40 generic happy things, I've decided to fill up these numbers with 40 things I do when I'm not feeling too great. Some of these are things I do everyday, while others are for my really bad days.
Before I start, I just want to say that although you may not be interested in some of these things, give a few of them a try. I think they might help you, if not as greatly as they help me :)


  1. Watch Zoella's daily vlogs
  2. Take a bath with a lush bath bomb
  3. Randomly open an old book and read from that page
  4. Look at photos hashtagged "light posh" on tumblr
  5. Drink a cup of peppermint tea
  6. Take a walk with your earphones playing your favorite playlist
  7. Laugh at an old episode of the Big Bang theory
  8. Give in and eat a cookie
  9. Go to Starbucks, order a grande drink, and people watch
  10. Write your thoughts down
  11. Kick a soccer ball, play some tennis, whatever you do that goes along those lines
  12. Make yourself hot chocolate with extra marshmallows

  16. Call up a friend and have a conversation, instead of messaging
  17. Doodle
  18. Visit a greenhouse or a plant shop and marvel over the neat flowers
  19. List things that make you happy(I'm fond of lists, that would be on the top of my list. Hehe)
