You don’t always need something big to happen to get a happy kick out of life. Sometimes it’s as simple as finding a parking spot right in front of the shop’s entrance. The Ryan O’Connor Breakfast Show opened the floor to everyone to share their simple pleasures in life.

Here are our top 5 simple pleasures in life:

5. Waking up a minute before the alarm goes off

4. Wanting to cancel plans with someone and they cancel them before you get the chance

3. Opening a bag of cereal with a perfect tear

2. Stopping the microwave with 1 second left on the clock and feeling like you’ve just defused a bomb

1. Beating Eskom by getting your kettle boiled, hair dry, and devices charged just before loadshedding kicks in
