listening to ghazals on a rainy day
having a long hot bath/shower
thinking you look hot once in a while
eating chocolate and not feeling guilty about it
chatting to my best friend for hours about random and fazool things
staying in my jamaz for the whole day
making sincere dua to Allah swt and spending time thinking about the wonders of creation
soaking up the sun on a hot summers day
drinking ice cold juice and eating ice cream in the park...
UglySem - there's nothing like a book that is so good that you just can't put it down! I have been known to finish a massive book in a day because I just couldn't bring myself to stop reading!
LibranRulz - I too would add cool rain on a hot summers day to my list!
A few more for me:
Eating chips straight outta the oil when they're sizzling hot :D
Getting home after a long day and slipping in to my PJ's as soon as I can - even if it is only 6pm!
Completing work before the deadline
Eating ice cream straight from the tub - Ben and Jerrys fudge brownie or Haagen Daaz Strawberry cheesecake being particular favourites of mine :D
Wow amazing thread, I have no idea how come I did not click on this before. Loved what people had to say. Here are some of mine. I am the kind of person who needs happiness in their life and thankfully I do have a lot of things which make me happy.
I get happy thinking I am blessed with such an amazing and goodlooking mum mashallah :D Oh and the fact that I went totally on her. Looks, personality etc.
I get happy when something that I wish for get's granted instantaneously as if Allah SWT is closer to me than my jugular vein. It does happen, so far nothing has not been granted. Alhumdullilah.
I get happy because of the feeling I get when I see the person I love/care about online. Especially if it is my best friend or few people from GS.
I get so happy when someone smiles because of me. I get warm fuzzies then in my heart and a sense of comfort.
I get happy reading/hearing about other people's happiness online or in real world.
I get happy when I know my family members or loved ones are happy and ok.
I get happy when someone goes out of their way to do something special and nice for me.
I get happy when someone tells me they care about me/worry about my wellbeing/thought about me.
I get SO happy when someone tells me they love me. Not really necessary a guy but in general could be a really good friend etc. Brings a smile to my face.
I am happy that when I tell I love you to anyone, the response I get is always a good one. By anyone again I mean it could be my mum, my siblings, my friends etc.
I am really happy because of the fact that I am punjabi and I listen to super uber amazing punjabi songs which make me bhangra all the time LOL.
I am happy to be a Muslim, hafiz quran, 5 wakt ki namazi, and a great and nice human being in general.
There are so many more things to write but for now this would suffice lol.
Being alive
knowing someone loves me unconditionally
my husband
our plans for life-inshallah
getting phrased at work
getting a message from a friend telling you something good or saying they can't wait to see you
donating to charity-even if it's just a few pennies
watching something cool on tv/a film
hearing the azaan-esp in Pakistan

seeing England from the plane when I come home
Shopping...esp sales :-)

freshly washed duvet/sheets
cats
tarka daal (love it)
looking at photos from the past of happy memories
That feeling you get when there's a bad storm outside, and everyone you love and care for is surrounding you. You thank Allah, and cherish every moment of that time.
good cup of chai
good t.v
music
sunshine

when I come to know about anything good about others I know, like their success or good things that happen in their life, make me feel happy.
