Focus less on expressing yourself, and more on what makes her happy. This post is mostly about you - your feelings, and what you want. You’ve given us no information about your girlfriend, and I think that’s indicative of your current mindset. Flip it on its head, and make her feelings the focus instead of your own.

She’s not just your girlfriend, she’s her own, unique person - If you truly listen to her wants and needs and preferences instead of just taking generic advice about “girlfriends”, that’ll make her feel much more special than anything else you can do.

I think there’s one that comes through my neighborhood. I’ve never actually seen it, just heard it, and it never seems to… actually stop. When I was a kid, the ice cream trucks would stop and play their music for a while so people had time to grab their money and run outside. This one just seems to play a few bars of a song as it drives through, makes me wonder if it’s actually an ice cream truck at all.
