Oh, I love sweets. They make me more in tune with my inner childishness... Don't they remind you of when buying or receiving candy was one of the most delightful things ever?
But also the wonderful wonderful feeling of not having exams, deadlines and more classes than you can manage pressing down on you. Not to mention the sheer clothes, lace and pretty floral dresses. :)
If it's not your usual cup of tea, try listening to some John Mayer or Joshua Radin first. Radiohead might be legendary in the field but delving head first into their music might be a bit of a shock if you're not used to it. :P
... going to beautiful places is breathtaking. Looking a pictures and actually going there are two completely different things. Leave your comfort zone, go somewhere new. Even if it's taking a bus to anywhere you don't ever go. The best thing about travel is that you get to see new things, observe and appreciate. Do it. :)
