Some Chinese words I love

When I first started learning Chinese, there were few words that instantly became my favorites. Today I am going to share them with you.
糟糕 (zāogāo): too bad
真糟糕!下起雨来了

马马虎虎 (mǎmǎhǔhǔ): so-so
他唱得马马虎虎

糊里糊涂 (hu li hú tu): confused
我很糊里糊涂

公共汽车 (gōnggòng qìchē): bus
我们坐公共汽车去吧
You can see a trend here. They all became my favorites because of the way they sound. Do you have any you can add to this list?
