What made you happy today?

[Vic_Rattlehead]

Wee thread.

For me; I got my first 2 essays back from University and scored 61 and 65 which are both classed as 2:1 which I'm happy about! I could've scraped another few marks on my 65, I made stupid mistakes I.E I forgot some bibliographic information which I used in the body of the essay. Might've been able to push it upto first with a few minor adjustments, but I'm still very happy with 2:1...even 2:2 would've made me smile in such a manic way!

Yourselves?

[4letterwords]

I dunno about british scores but a 61 and a 65 are both failures... I dunno.

Um... It's 10 days until I leave for America.

I had Kimchee for dinner which was followed by a tiny orgasm.

[Vic_Rattlehead]

I dunno about british scores but a 61 and a 65 are both failures... I dunno..

Anything under 40% here is fail. It's like:

69+ = First class
59-68 = 2:1
49-59 = 2:2
40-49 = third
under 40 =f ail with resit
under 30 = sod off!

Or alone those lines...roughly.

[Beowulf]

Watching my wiener dog charge headlong into the sliding glass door to the backyard.

[haterllnation]

Ha, I wish our bottom rank wasn't "F" but rather the statement "Sod Off!" As for something that made me happy...hmm, I suppose being off work and being able to play guitar and play Resident Evil 4.

[TommyA]

Bought my first "A Bathing Ape" / "Bape" piece of clothing. Made me happy to drop more money than I ever have spent on this particular item, just because of the brand.

[Hiigarasjet]

My many packs of noodles, My first couple of conversations with a newly made friend, and the few hours of gaming i fit into my schedule today

[japanat]

I actually found fashionable shirts and a hunting-style jacket in my size. [Fashionable to me means not Japanese Metro-sexual; which would look ridiculous on me, anyways}

[羽之助]

Getting the hot water to work in my shower this morning.

[Trinadad]

Being able to not go to school - freezing rain, I don't really wanna die!

[Loc]

Getting a PM from an old friend. :)

[PopCulturePooka]

Having an MSN chat with Loc

Hey Tommy-- I think you're becoming Japanese!

[AgentOrange]

MLK, for giving me a day off. Beer and cards.

I don't like the fact that I can't hit this obnoxious asshole spouting bullshit, and completely inaccurate statistics about football. Just another of what I like to call the 'military tough guys'.

Horray Beer!!!

[Trump]

Well, nothing yet... it's been a very average monday morning.

[Kal]

The thought of the Burning Crusade coming out tommorow.

[Shamu]

I'm happy because as of Midnight last night, I have health insurance again! \o/ I can actually go to the doctor when I get sick now (and be able to afford it) and I can also go to the dentist and get my teeth looked at (a few of them have been bugging me).
First thing I'm doing after checking a few things with the insurance company is calling and making an appointment for a physical!
I never thought I'd be so happy to go to the doctor >_>

[悲しいパンダ]

What made my day was this response to the power ranger porno thread:
I think he's tea baggin' the guy on the bottom. It must have been morphin' time...

[MeneerDijk]

The thing that made me happy today is that i finally got the hang of some weak acid calculations, wich will help me greatly in getting a good grade on the test. If i get a good score i'll have a longer time off after my internship, wich means i get to visit my gf longer \o/

[Kwiz]

Warm tea. It's been about an hour into my day.

[ellie]

Well last night was the holiday party, and we got to take a limo to go there, and then by the time the party was over it was early this morning, so I am counting that as today. And it was fun and I got to spend time with my bf.

[Loc]

Having an MSN chat with Loc

Huh? Can't remember that...

Another thing that made me happy was being called from Japan. ;o

Now I can brag to my friends and stuff...:blank:

[Neon Pink Shoehorn]

guitar hero.

[Lisa M]

Drinking green tea for the first time in like forever, because I finally have a mug.

No, seriously, I forgot to bring mugs with me last semester to school, and was too lazy to buy one.

[ZylitoL]

Got 6 out of 6 on my mock SAT essay!

[Lateli]

I'm happy today because I have power, and my friend in St Louis might get power back today too. (CNN has info on this if you're curious why I'm extra happy about electricity.) Also, I'm happy that the other half of the tree outside my dorm didn't fall off. As of right now, one side has completely broke off, and the other side still has all it's limbs. It's strange.

[The Divine Comedy]

I'm happy because the freezing rain gave me a day off of school. :)

[Soli]

^ You got freezing rain? We have just rain here. Freezing rain sound more exciting! ;p

I'm happy because I'm finally getting my teeth fixed. :)

[The Divine Comedy]

^ You got freezing rain? We have just rain here. Freezing rain sound more exciting! ;p

Yes, definitely more exciting. I woke up to little frozen drips of water on every twig and branch. It is cool-looking. :D Not quite so cool when it makes the tree limbs break off, but this one was pretty minor.

[jihei18]

The big boss was off today, so although I don't get MLK off, it sure felt like it!

[ellie]

I am happy because today I got to sleep and lay on the couch and watch MTV2 and be a general slacker lazy ass, and it was wonderful.

[UK_Storm]

I'm happy cos I finally got my splits back...

[Campion]

I'm happy because I'm at university and my class finished an hour early. Well, that and I'm not at work..

..I'm not allowed to be happy at work, it's in my contract.



Campion.

[Trump]

I got to play ultimate tonight for the first time in a month!

[Stephy]

I found another kitty! \o/

The other one I found a nice home for...

no one is home so my daddy doesn't know :x... I am allergic also >_>;

[King Kong]

Anything under 40% here is fail. It's like:

69+ = First class
59-68 = 2:1
49-59 = 2:2
40-49 = third
under 40 =f ail with resit
under 30 = sod off!

Or alone those lines...roughly.

For me January examinations, I got myself 2 A's, 1 B+ and 1 C- which puts my average at B-ish which is 2:1.

2:1 is a minimum for me, the 1st is a bonus. For the area that I want to work in, you need atleast a 2:1 to get a job. A 2:2 doesn't quite cut it.

[Saitou Hajime]

School started!

Wait, that's the opposite of happy!

[Random]

You mean.. sad?
:O

Exams are over until late spring! And I did well!
edit: real well

[Jetsetlemming]

I'm happy cause I switched from the Omega ATI drivers to the Catalyst ATI drivers and instantly fixed my problems running certain games. :)

[seiji]

*bump!*

I am happy because I randomly saw my crush from two years ago on the bus today. This is threefold happiness: 1) hot guy smiling at me; 2) seeing someone I haven't seen in a looong time; 3) proof that I DO know a few people outside classes. :P

[Jetsetlemming]

Snow. :):):)

[Noata]

Nothing. At all.
The past 7 days have been nothing but utter shit

[Plekto]

So that's 69+ out of 100?

Wow things are lax over there if that is true. We got an A- at 90 and an A was something like 95%+. They sometimes gave us a break by making a C go down to 70%(C minus was about 65%) - but that was it.

[Masa the Masta]

*bump!*

I'll remember to stop riding the bus. :box:




Just kidding. :P

Anyway, I've been kinda just "bleh.." Not really happy, nor sad today. I don't even know what I want. I still feel this way, but after eating an assload of chinese food, I sure feel less tired/lethargic, but it's still there a little. :frypan:

[japanat]

Aaah, the MSG rush...

[Mastiker]

Several things :D


I got to stay home "sick" even though I clearly wasn't.
My girlfriend called me as soon as she got home to see if I was okay. (This is huge, seeing as how she's the only person other than my mom to do that XD)
Clearing the air with my ex (who was my really great friend before we went out, and now we're back to being great friends)
Inventing the Flavor fuck (see RWPW)
Getting my friend's s/n who I haven't talked to in 2 years and talking for like an hour as if we just talked the other day


Yeah :D

I'm in a great mood today.

[h2orowe]

-Listening to Elliot Smith
-Taking a nice nap, then getting ready to down some codeine to sleep again ^_^
-Talking to Trina who might come down to California sometime soon. :cool:Oh man! There will be very much MJ happening during that event.
-Finding out that RATM got back together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so going to Coachella if I fricking can. Oh man. OH MAN.

What didn't make me happy today:
-Finding out we can't make those brownies ._. it'd take an ounce. We don't have that kind of money. But we are making steaks with it. Which I hear is pretty damn awesome.
-Getting made fun of a crapload in history. I've about had it with this kid, I'm going to kick his ass -_-;
-My partner for singing in a choir talent show thing not being where she should've been so we could practice. Which meant that I brought my guitar for NO reason today.


Anyway, the good>bad today. =D overall a very pleasant day.

[Jiant Flying Panda]

Playing a very nice game of Madden against my coworker finally. After like a month of build up we finnally went at it.

I loss by one point :(

[Saitou Hajime]

Playing Counter Strike. Sad, I know, but it made me laugh more than I've laughed in a very long time. Maybe it's cause it was almost 2AM and I was tired, or maybe because it really was hysterical, I don't know... but it was great. I humped and tea-bagged the body of this one guy who kept trying to kill me each round for 2 minutes straight until the round ended. The bomb was near me and only one of his team mates was alive... but he never showed up for his explodey thingy. Oh well. Then I was kung fu knifing, and for some reason every time the screen went white after a flashbang, I started to crack up (that had to be due to being tired). Plus much more! :O

[ZaichikArky]

-Idol
-Obama
-My good batch of chicken noodle soup.

I have decided that I am no longer buying the soups from the can because they have about an 70% suckage rate, and making soup from the packet of dehydrates stuff is FAR superior. Of course I'm not making any stew/soup from scratch any time soon, but I'm a huge soup lover and my soup has to be great quality for me to eat it since I eat soup fairly often.

[Masa the Masta]

In-N-Out

Finding out my supposed difficult poly sci class turned out to be easier than I thought

Talking to people around the school was a little refreshing

[ZaichikArky]

In-N-Out is so awesome. I swear, it needs to move out of California and be a nation-wide chain. It's immensely popular. Same thing about Sonic's. Why don't we have it in Cali? ;_;.

[Saitou Hajime]

Oh, that's what it is. I thought Masa was saying he had sex.

[ZaichikArky]

Oh, that's what it is. I thought Masa was saying he had sex.

HAHAHAHAHA!! Naw XD. That WOULD make sense though... considering it's Masa :p.

[Saitou Hajime]

The fact that it was Masa saying it is exactly why I thought it meant sex.

[Masa the Masta]

The fact that it was Masa saying it is exactly why I thought it meant sex.

Very funny guys. You know I sometimes run out of juice too you know. :bored:


Wait, that didn't come out right. :duh:


...That didn't either. :eyepop:

Maybe I shouldn't just come at all. :innocent:


I is a good boy, I swear! :liar:


See what you made me do? Now I can't even type without having to watch for innuendo just so I can be taken seriously. :whoops: (Linz would say, "Cock goes where?" Right about now..)

[Baroness]

The end of the work day made me happy. My feet were killing me.

[kilreli]

My Japanese Teachers awesome stories. Honestly, i would just pay for the class so i could listen to his stories four hours a week. :J

[Masa the Masta]

Orcutt Burger (local burger joint)
Biology Class (I like learning when it's easy and I have some interest)
Sleeping (I have a messed up sleep schedule right now. Napping off my missing sleep is a great feeling)

[Firefly]

ZA, we do have sonics...although the only one in the bay that I know I of is in like, Tracy :D (if you can consider that BA) muahahhahaha

In N Out is great.

I think we need a California thread...hah.

I am happy today because I went shopping and bought stuff. Thats about it.

[Saitou Hajime]

Counter Strike. Again. Yip-fricken-pee.

[harper]

In-N-Out is so awesome. I swear, it needs to move out of California and be a nation-wide chain. It's immensely popular. Same thing about Sonic's. Why don't we have it in Cali? ;_;.

I keep seeing ads for Sonic on tv, but we don't have any Sonics in Michigan. I think I ate at one in Oklahoma years ago. I love In-N-Out and usually eat there a couple of times whenever I go to California.

I was happy today because I have all of my papers checked and grades computed for the card marking. Now all I have to check are the midterm exams. I've already got a good start on those as well. I started giving exams today and we have half days for exams Thursday and Friday. I'm hoping to have a nice, quiet, relaxing afternoon with my papers checked early and nothing to do.

[Baroness]

My mom and I went to eat dinner at East Side Marios. Oh man that was awesome.

[Kurogetsu]

Bleach Ep 112 will be available when I get home :karate:

[The Divine Comedy]

I'm happy because I only had one exam today. And don't have any tomorrow. :)

[Baroness]

Eating a big bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios.

Lame yet satisfying.

[seiji]

No school today! It's...sort of almost icy a tiny bit!!! :D

[CrazyAce86]

I'm happy because I just got the torrent of this week's episode of House, and it's quite possibly one of my favorite eps so far.

And no, not because they played Damien Rice, either. :P

I don't know why I'm happy. Just am for now.

[Cherub Rock]

There is snow on the ground outside.

And the heat in my apartment finally turned on after all these months of huddling under blankets.

And my featherbed arrived yesterday so I woke up this morning more refreshed than I've been in a long time.

Good day so far.

[seiji]

And the heat in my apartment finally turned on after all these months of huddling under blankets.
Speaking of which, my heater just chose the coldest day for months to suddenly stop working. Thermostat is set to 72, but it's 65 and falling fast. :fever:

Some dudes are on their way to tell me whether my pilot light went out or I'm going to have to build a fire in my livingroom for warmth tonight. So, not so happy right now.

[harper]

There are supposed to be some pretty low windchill temps tomorrow morning. As a result, I just got a call from the assistant superintendent and found out we don't have school on Monday.

3 Day Weekend!!!!

[Comazon]

The Colts winning the SuperBowl.

[haterllnation]

The Colts winning the SuperBowl.

I concur. :clap:

[PiccoloNamek]

Today, I received a message from a friend I haven't spoken to in several years. On a whim, I logged into my never-used Myspace page, and there it was.

[harper]

I got a call from my principal that school is closed again tomorrow because of the cold

4 Day Weekend!!!

I'll probably go see a movie and try to finish getting caught up on the stack of comics I've got.

[Zslash]

Today's my birthday and I am getting some money.

[harper]

Happy Birthday. Hope you have had a good one so far. Money is good...

[Kannon]

Happy Zslash day!

Having a good interview today for a full time version of my part time job was nice, although my happiness and positivity about it ebbs and flows...

[Josh]

Happy (late) Birthday Zslash. Don't spend it all in once place. Or do, it is your money. :D

My friends told me I was a manwhore yesterday. That made me happy. Can't really explain why though.

[UK_Storm]

I'm still alive

[Shishio]

I got One-liners strip #42 this morning, FFVI for the GBA this evening, and the Wi-Fi is working at the mall again.

[Kwiz]

My high school's exit exam is proving almost ridiculously easy. I'm not sure yet whether this makes me happy or just bored.

[Soli]

I had candy today and that always makes me happy. :P

But I was also "checked out" by a guy at the store today. >.< My mom said he was a horn dog, and I thought she said corn dog. :rofl:

[Kenshin]

Learning that my Calculus 40 exam tomorrow was changed to next Monday. I hadn't studied that much and I need every point I can get on it. Also, finding out that I can change my new phone's languages to the ones I like by myself, instead of having to pay someone to do it for me. Also (another one :P) talking with my best friend and getting her to come over on thrusday - we almost have no time to see each other, so every moment counts.

If I could get pizza and chocolate right now... *drools at the thought* this would be the best day ever.

[h2orowe]

Today started off kinda bummy. Trina sent me a message thingy on myspace saying I had hurt her feelings :O so I felt really bad throughout the whole day wondering what the hell I did.
THEN
I found out I passed geometry which I thought for sure I failed.
I'm hanging out after school right? Friend comes by, I got to squeeze a booby :3.
Trina was only joking (BITCH! That had me seriously worried.)
I got a new guitar.*


So all in all today was awesome.










*The guitar was given to me by the man who helped create me whom I haven't seen in 9 years. My mom came downstairs tonight and was like "Joey, I randomly remembered your grandma's phone number (my mom's mom is dead [R.I.P.], so she meant my dad's mom.) if it's the right number and she answers, wanna talk to her?"
My mom calls, and like my grandma (who I have never met) started bitching at her how I'm not my dad's son. Then my grandma finally gives the phone to my dad like "CHRIS! It's your ex-girlfriend." and they start talking, and finally my mom hands the phone to me (I thought it was my grandma) and she's like "He has a little sister now, too, right?" like right before she hands me the phone. I start talking and I'm like "Hello..?" and it's a guy's voice and I go O_O and my mom's like "IT'S YER DAD." and I'm just... like.. what?

"Hey, Joey, how've you been?" he says.

"Good... I guess.. how have you been?" I ask.

"Pretty good, pretty good." then he said "What kinda axe you playin' now?"

I told him how I still had the guitar he had given me the last time I saw him, and how it needed to be resoldered because I played it so much that the electronics part kinda wore out.

He's like "I have an Epiphone Les Paul Gold Top, with some new pick ups that I modified (my dad is a REALLY good guitar player AND bass player) that you could have."

I was like O________O "Really?"

"Yeah, you at Phil's?" My mom's boyfriend's name is Phil.

"Yeah.." I says..

"I'll come drop it off right now."





O_O I talked to my dad IN PERSON for a hour and a half. I got to play guitar for him, the man who is basically the WHOLE REASON I PICKED UP A GUITAR (when I was younger I wanted to impress him with the guitar he gave me for the next time he was supposed to come over >_>; which he never did.. until now. PLUS he gave me my first guitar and amp.). I talked to him, and him and my grandma (who is hopefully not a bitch since my dad basically knows I'm his kid) are gonna come to my talent show thingy I have Thursday night.

[UK_Storm]

Escaping narrow death, when a clearly colourblind driver when through a red light.

[Saitou Hajime]

No class due to Mother Nature! :D

[harper]

School got canceled here as well. I got the call at 6:10 am, just a few minutes before I planned to get up anyway to take care of the snow. We got about 7 inches total plus lots of drifting due to the wind. I couldn't get back to sleep so I stayed up and may take a nap later.

[Tibs]

Words.

I recently got back into contact with my dad after a long time too, it's nice, isn't it?

Tibs is happy for Joey.

[Jetsetlemming]

I was told something very nice today. :)

[Trump]

I went to sleep at 12:15 this morning. Granted, then I had to get up at 6:30.

I can look forward to going to sleep again tonight, that kinda makes me happy.

[Mittens]

Today I went to look at pianos and keyboard.
Im probably gonna be getting one and I can finally start playing as long as i want to. May not seem like much to some, but to me its somethin big.

That wasnt the main point though. I had a long discussion with my dad about university, and his support in regards to the large chance i wont get into Uni this year. Has made my day and I feel invincible.

[Noata]

I was told something very nice today. :)

It's not lupus?

[Soli]

Joey: That is very cool! Haha, just reading that makes me day. I get happier when I see other people being happy, then by being happy myself. XD

I am happy because I got first chair clarinet. ^^

[Josh]

Im happy because I just saw my dog slide 30ft on ice down a hill onto the ice covered lake near my house and he didn't fall in.

It was the funniest thing i've ever seen. Probably wouldnt have been so had he gone under though. Then i'd be sad. :(

[Duke Luke of Juke]

Joey meeting up with his dad again
Man, that's fantastic Joseph. Hopefully he'll see this as another opportunity to get involved in your life, and make it stick this time. Good to hear buddy! I'm happy for ya man!

[anver]

Tibs being happy for Joey being happy.
I met my dad again recently too. I agree with y'all, it's good.

[h2orowe]

Thanks you guys :')

[Tibs]

Hi Dad

Let's make a special club and be massive elitist faggots to everyone who still lives with their dad.

[Random]

I got a completely unexpected valentine's day card from someone I've never heard of.

Wait, that just confused me more than anything.. ~

Happy: I broke 100k points in ToD and now no one can touch me. I control the market and people fear pissing me off. And if I feel like wiping someone out they just run away when they see me coming. I took down an entire empire with one scout ship.
Booo-ya.

[Tibs]

I realised I still have Random's mobile phone number. ;*

[Random]

;o I have yours too.

[h2orowe]

Let's make a special club and be massive elitist faggots to everyone who still lives with their dad.
Forshizzle. Like the "I didn't have a dad for most of my life but now I do possibly so you can suck my dick and die of AIDS because you're lame and lived with your dad your whole life and don't know the pain we've been through without having a father figure there for the most part of our existences, leaving that huge empty hole that pierces through you every father's day, where you're the only kid left in the corner not making macaroni art club."

[Jiant Flying Panda]

Going one on one in GoW with some guy who was talking shit about my crew after we beat his crew 3 games straight (3-0).

He wanted to go up against our best player and my friends elected me to represent them. Thanks a lot....

Anyways. Rules were.

Execution
First to 8
Bleed out duration 5 seconds.

Final score: 8-6 (Win)

He took me down with a sniper active reload in the final round and ran up to me to finish me off. I got up just in time and blew his leg off with a well placed shotgun round.

My heart was racing that entire match.

[silentplummet]

I performed two pieces on the piano for an audience and I totally owned them all. It's been a while since I've had the satisfaction of saying so, at least before I went to Japan in 2005, and it made me really, just, happy.

[Radiance]

My boss made me leave work three hours early today because I had too much overtime already and i've got the weekend off... so I was like "Let me get this straight, you want me to leave for my off weekend three hours early?" "Yup, get outta here." "Done and done! SEE YA!"

[ミュー]

Got to see a live image of my g/f for the first time in a month... she finally got internet (100Mbps fiber... *drool*)

[Jay]

A lot of things made me happy today, but it's a toss-up between getting more permanent accomodation and watching the NASCAR with my dad over drinks and fish & chips for dinner.

[Unknown]

I got to stay home from school today, and i just found out that my ex is moving out of my house a week early! So I only have to deal with him till the 10th. I am the happiest that I have been for awhile now.

[Noata]

Besides having vacation all this week..my BE hunter got 30 about an hour ago :D
Made him about 4 days ago

[ParryDat]

Beating my cousin and brother in Street Fighter 3rd Strike today.But that's just like walking the dog for me at this point,since I am much better than them.Still I had alot of fun.

[The Divine Comedy]

Today, I'm happy because I switched out of the class taught by someone who, in less polite company, I would call a "bitch." And now I'm in journalism, hurrah!

[anver]

Beating Dagoth Ur and thus finishing Morrowind. Which, in turn, makes me sad.

[riona]

Slept in till 11, missed school, talked to a couple of good friends, did generally nothing all day. ^^

[Plekto]

My best friend at work bought me a copy of Supreme Commander! :)

[Josh]

I finished reading the Divine Comedy again and I actually found it rather amusing.

Kinda makes me sad too, because im apparently not afraid of going to hell. Lol.

[4letterwords]

Josh's generic name syndrome made me happy today.

[Jay]

PAYDAY made me happy today! :D

[Lateli]

I was talking to my friend on the phone, and he was on his way home. He arrived at his house and started getting stuff out of his car and started saying things like..

"Where's my phone?!"
"GRrr!! Where is it?!"
"God dammit I think I lost my phone!"
"Fuck!"
"Where's my phone?!"

I was like.. "What?!"

He responded with .."OH SHIT! I'm talking on it...... SHUT IT!!.... SHUSH!!"


That made me laugh, which means... happy! :gwitch:

[Daishikaze]

How did he not realize he was using his phone? does he have one of those hand-free setups or something? or was he stoned? ;)

[Lateli]

How did he not realize he was using his phone? does he have one of those hand-free setups or something? or was he stoned? ;)


He's just a doodlebrain sometimes, he compared it to leaving sunglasses on your head and thinking you've lost them. I told him it's not quite the same.. :hat:

(He's also called himself a girl a few times because he's so used to disagreeing with everything I say. More happy times. :P )

[seiji]

Bump because this thread makes me happy. :)

Also because of what made me happy yesterday: I had four books out of the library since last semester because I am a huge procrastinator and generally suck and stuff. They were declared "lost", which meant I owed $15 late fine + $60 replacement cost + $35 restocking fee per book. I finally worked up the courage yesterday to take them back and pay up so they would unblock my registration for next semester. Turns out I only had to pay the $60 in late fines, not $430 for replacement and everything. Yay library!
