Things I like

There are things I like, things that make me happy even if it's for just a minute:

1. Stationary, notebooks, paper. Thick, cream-colored paper. Sometimes bound by hand, sometimes loose leaf. It's a blank canvas.

2. Flowers. The kind where the smell fills the whole room, the whole street. Jasmine might be my favorite. Gardenias are nice too.

3. Swimming. At any time, I can stop and be okay and float on. I don't have to listen to anybody. I can go as hard as I want until I only feel the burn in my lungs.

4. Sunlight on my skin. Sunlight burning through the sunblock. The smell of the sun and California's dry air with bits of brine.

Things I like from a place I viciously detest.
