Can money really buy happiness? I'm richer now but I don't feel happier.

I thought of what made me happy in the past:

1. Chocolates
   
2. A well-written thesis
3. Volleyball
4. My legendary $500 Vietnam Trip
5. Having something interesting to blog about everyday
   
6. Shi Lin XXL chicken
7. Quality time with friends
8. Never-ending crappy ideas
9. Ability to choose who I want to talk to
10. My Grad Trip
    
11. Life filled with colours
12. Less complicated relationships

And I thought of what can make me happy now:

1. Exemption from Commercial Law classes
2. No need for entertainment
3. More annual leave
4. Someone to marry me for 2 days so that I'm entitled to 2 days marriage leave
5. Not getting into trouble at work
6. More sleep
   

Is it normal to think this way when one has reach this phase in life?

Should I give up my struggles and accept life as it is and move on? Simple because there is nothing I can do to change anything anyway?

Well, I don't know. I don't want to succumb to it YET!
