My Favourite things................

Last night I couldn’t sleep. There was a lot of traffic on the road. I have decided to take a break from my cell phone, so it remains switched off most of the time. Having nothing to do, I thought of my favourite things in the world and made a small list.

1. Making soap bubbles while washing hands.
2. Making pot pourries out of the dried garden flowers.
3. Staring at the moon in the wee hours.
4. Playing with stray dogs.
5. Sitting on the dividers in the busiest of roads.
6. Bike rides on cold nights.
7. Bunking economics classes.
8. Drinking coffee at D’Pauls.
9. Sneaking out from my house and going to an expensive restaurant in pyjamas or night shirts.
10. Playing hop-a-scotch in mud slush.
11. Oiling my hair.
12. Speaking on the phone in hushed whispers.
