One Hundred Things

It's been a while. Yeah.

I'm taking a break from studying and thought I'd update my blog. I recently read someone else's blog where they had listed 100 things that made them happy. I've done it before, but I thought, what the heck, let's do it again. It's easy and I don't have to think about Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, or common chord modulations or what the terms Nationalist and Socialist mean in context of the Nazi Party.

Here we go. This may take awhile. 100 Things! That's a lot!
