20. I also like the smell of sunscreen year-round.
19. I sometimes like the kind of sleepy that swimming and chlorine makes me.
18. I like St. Marks Pl.
17. While I may not enjoy ArtH368, I really do enjoy the art of the collage. And I love every object I've bespattered with the random clippings of my life.
16. I like parents that don't use television as a babysitter and whose kids are funny and happy and creative because of it.
15. I like holding hands.
14. I secretly like my curly hair.
13. I used to like reading on the diving board of The Fountains on hot, empty afternoons before they took it down.
12. I love when two items that you use together get finished up at the same time. Like peanut butter and jelly, or laundry detergent and dryer sheets, or shampoo and conditioner, so that there isn't an excess of one over the other.
11. I like sleeping through class, and then later on finding out it was canceled anyway.
10. I like a good cry every now and then.
9. I like to sometimes bite into the ice cream part of ice cream cones, and not lick them. I think it's the teeth marks.
8. (November 9, 2005) Today I liked sitting on the shuttle bus on the way back to the dorms, listening to songs that usually make me feel like crying, staring out the window onto a cloudy city that was so busy with its own comings and goings. I liked that it was so windy that the trees were blowing around in a delicately violent way, making their leaves dance right off their branches and flutter in slow motion like snow, following erratic paths to the ground.
7. I like the phenomenon of creating verbs out of nouns. That my entire generation has become "friended."
6. I like old men who wear berets and chat up old women on the subway.
5. I like when I'm walking through a museum with my headphones on, and songs play that match entirely with the works or mood of the particular room I'm in- like a Baroque classical piece coming on when I walk into an 18th century French paneled room. Perfect.
4. I like to cut things like fun tac, silly putty or play-doh with scissors.
3. I like sort-of-stale marshmallows where the insides are still squishy, but the outsides have gotten kind of hard.
2. (2005) On really clear days, especially summer ones in the woods or at The Fountains apartment building where I lifeguard, I like to find a patch of nature that includes really blue sky, really green trees, and really white clouds all together.
1. Waking up to early morning sun and occasional car horns honking.
