It's the Little Things...

[AlAaraaf74]

A bottle of water. You really shouldn't take things like that for granted.

That me and my girlfriend found out what's "our song".

In an online relationship the little things are usually what carries most weight since the "big" things will have to wait until we're actually together.

The poem 'If', by Rudyard Kipling. If you've never read it, here it is:

IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

I always hear it in a kindly elderly voice, and it always makes me smile.

The smell of your wife in the morning
When i wake up and i take a deep breath, its good to know shes there, smelling like strawberries and fabric softener.

Oh, and moral choice system in games. I dont care how poorly its done, at least i have the choice to be a d*ck.

Having air-conditioning that works so well that I did not know that it was 109 degrees fahrenheit outside until I stumbled across the weather report for my area.

And for gaming making a perfect, long-distance head shot on an enemy while playing Sniper: Ghost Warrior on Hard (the hard setting takes away the indicator for where the bullet will land) and without using the concentration/bullet-time feature. IT made me feel like a total bad-ass to see the sentry just drop in a spray of blood.

I have two handwritten poems in my wallet. If is one of them. This is the other.

I have no work until Tuesday. I have nothing that really needs to be done for the next few days. I had a great breakfast and am close to a great dinner. I also just boosted my SNES collection with Alien 3, Super Castlevania and, Star Fox. I am happy.

(living with my GF is another factor. She always makes me happy though so she may not count here)

I passed all of my GCSEs, ALL OF THEM. AND THE RESULTS DAY WAS ON MY FRIGGIN' BIRTHDAY!!! I mean what if I got ONE grade I didn't want? And this means I can do A level Game Design in college in a week or two.

Other than that, Just saw the Inbetweeners film... again. First with my friends, then my parents, since they love the inbetweeners. Then I'm seeing it again tomorrow with another friend who didn't come with me the first time. Seeing it way too many times you might say? I say it's a great film and I would see it every day if I could.

Nice to know I'm not the only one who likes that game. I've actually got a tweed jacket, but with no leather patches *sad face*

Spending time with the woman I love, nothing better.

Life is awful, I've just broken up with my insane fiancée and effectively booted her out of the house, emotionally I am ruined

Life is great because now I'm free and single! Yeah!

When my mouse doesn't fuck with me ^-^ You'd think that it wouldn't be that annoying BUT GOD DAMN!

Playing a game with a drink nearby and playing for hours knowing that I have nothing to do that day and the next.

Greatest. Feeling. Ever.

Got me a comfy sofa, hot crispy chicken, pasta salad, ice cream, and Star Trek: TNG on instant-watch. There's also a heavy storm outside, which I am able to completely ignore. Good evening.
