It’s been a while since I opened this book. I just want to share a list of all the “awesome” things that you might bump into while you go through-out your day, and take a moment to really appreciate the small things (:
1. The other side of the pillow
-You know, the cold side.
2. Fixing electronics by smacking them
3. Peeling an orange in one shot
4. The final seconds of untangling a really big knot
5. The ‘thank-you’ wave when you let someone merge in front of you
6. The smell of rain
7. Getting off an airplane after a long flight
-Ok, I never been on a plane before, but wouldn’t it be like a long drive with no stops?
8. Perfectly toasted toast
-We don’t need the small burnt crumbs falling everywhere anyways.
9. Remembering a word that’s been on the tip of your tongue for so long
10. Locking people out of the car and pretending to drive away
-Ok, this might sound mean, but who hasn’t done this?!
11. Laughing so hard you make no sound at all
-As well as clapping, looking like a retarded seal.
12. Managing to squeeze out just enough toothpaste for one last brush
13. Finding the tv remote after looking for it forever
-This goes along with keys, wallets, cell phones, etc.
14. Sleeping with one leg under the covers and one leg out
15. Smell of campfire

-AWESOME.
17. That one really good pen that never gets lost
18. Waking up and realizing its Saturday
19. The gas arrow
-A filled up car is a happy car.
20. The 5 minute nap that feels like you have been asleep for hours & waking up feeling refreshed
“Sometimes it’s easy to forget the things that makes us smile. Sometimes it’s tempting to feel that the world is falling apart. But awesome things are ALL around us.” –The Book of Awesome Neil Pasricha
