WOW, does that seriously happen? No way! o_o
I never even heard of that, awesome! :D
Uhm, I'm happy because...it's Deadliest Catch/Tuesday night seafood night? xD

Also me never heard of it, those are the effects of the protests we're having here in Brazil. (I work in a govern company)
The reason for that is how we are going to work only part time, they will save because now they will not need to pay our lunch, also they will save on power, water, phone and other bills.
I'm happy because I ordered Gargoyles Season 2 Volume 2 on DVD today, now I finally have the whole series on DVD! Took Disney long enough. (Season 1 was released in 2004, and Season 2 Volume 1 was released in 2005) I seriously thought it was never going to get released. Although it's only available through the Disney Movie Club, but that is no problem for me, I was actually considering joining already since I bought so many Disney movies on blu-ray within the last year.
I have a 4th casual job as a Disney Princess. Today had my first one on one party as Tinkerbell.
I'm happy today because I'll see Leor all day and that we're flying to Cancun in just a couple of hours. :D
I'm happy today because the US Supreme Court ruled that DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) was unconstitutional.
In addition, I believe NJ Governor Chris Christie just signed a bill that will hopefully help a lot of people when dealing with potentially toxic landfill emissions and making sure landfill operators adhere to regulations.
Thus today, for me at least, was a good day in politics.
Also, I can eat solid food again. JOY! \o/
I'm really happy that I build and owned a new PC rig.

I'm happy today for completely nerdy reasons! Yesterday there were rumours about someone having photographed and filmed the Night Parrot, a native bird which there's only been records from possible brief sightings and about 3 dead specimens turning up since the early 1900's. So today, I bought the paper because there was supposed to be an article on it. And there is; two photos of a Night Parrot and a great article. Apparently there's a team gathering this week to analyse the photos, video and audio recording of the birds to decide on their authenticity. The bird in the photos is definitely a Night Parrot, even I can tell that, it's more whether they're doctored or not. It's really exciting though (to me at least). This is a bird that while not presumed extinct because of odd sightings and the finding of some deceased individuals, it has never before been photographed!! That in itself is amazing to me. I'm really excited about it. :D Really hoping that it's genuine and looking forward to seeing the footage and listening to the call.
Words cannot explain my excitement! :D
You should be able to read the article online here: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news...-1226671683508 lots of heavy watermarking on that image though. Actually, the link might not work, but if you type into google news search night-parrot and click on the link it should work that way.
/bird nerd time.
I'm happy today because the swelling around my new tattoo has gone down and I can walk without limping. :D It took a little longer than usual because it's on a lower extremity, but now it's doing what I was expecting at first. I'm excited.
I'm happy because I saw my favorite nephew today, hehe.
He studied something about neuro-psycology or something like that in school, and he works with disabled kids.
So he's very understanding, and I've always found I could really talk to him about things.
I just randomly asked him, because he works with those kids, if some of them might have panic disorders, none of them had, but he knew what it was.
And it was just so nice talking to him about it, he totally understood me (unlike others).
Obviously, I can't talk to him about a lot of things, because he is my nephew ... :(
His brother then later on said something about "you shouldn't buy all that Lion King, haha"
To which my nephew says: oh yeah ... do you still collect that? I'm pretty sure that if you still do, it's your comfort zone, isn't it?
Guy can just read my mind ... I always feel so much better talking to him, even if it is just for 10 minutes.
^ Yay, I'm glad you found an ally in your family!
I'm happy today because I found part of a turtle shell out hiking this afternoon! It's been pouring rain here all week, so there's lots of erosion and lots of things being washed up and out, its obviously been around for a while because it's pure clean bone and flooded out on to the trail only recently. It isn't the full carapace, but a big enough piece, about 2 by 2 or 3 inches. Water turtle of some sort I'm guessing because it isn't domed enough to be a box turtle, it's flatter than that. I'm over the moon about it though because turtles are very special animals to me, I absolutely love them, so this is a most excellent super cool gift of nature to find.
I don't get to see my family very often either. ): It sucks!
Well, I'm happy today because I had a good time with my friends, and finally saw Iron Man 3. =)
I'm happy today because TL is here! Heheheee :D
I'm happy today because it's a non-rainy Saturday and I just found out that with the barcode on my Library card I can sign up for free little online hobby/enrichment programs and download select magazines from home to keep forever for free, too.
Excellent job, Library, moving into the twenty-second century.
I'm happy today because me and Adam finally got to go on our 10km walk that we've been planning all week :3 The weather today was absolutely lovely and even though we're a bit sunburnt now we really enjoyed it :D Went for my first swim in the sea of the season too!
I'm finally home! :roar: I was sad to leave Austin, but I'm happy to have some peace and quiet, nice dry weather, my own bed and to cuddle with my cats haha.
So.... my mum had her follow-up scan last week. She got her results today. No cancer!!! Of course it's only the first step since she only finished up her treatments a bit over two months ago, but it's fantastic because her cancer was an aggressive invasive form. I have high hopes :) I think she has to have scans every 6 months for the next 10 years though before she's considered all clear.
Aww, that really is something to be happy about! :) I'm so glad to hear it!
Wow, Azerane. That's beyond fantastic!
Thanks Kanu and CGW :hugs:
I'm happy today because it's my last shift at the fair tonight! Going right from my 9-5 day job then working til 10 during the week is makes for Long. ***. Days. I can't wait to get home & just sit & do nothing for hours!
Also happy because I finally paid off all the car repairs on my credit card yesterday so I can start saving for Disney again now ^^ Yay!
I bought a new bed for Avery :lalala:
I'm happy today because we'd been trying to get the place tidy for an inspection tomorrow, then I was flipping through some paperwork and glanced at the letter about the inspection, turns out it's next week, not this week. Which is completely awesome because since I've had my wisdom teeth out and been sick the house is a complete mess, so we have more time to tidy it up and I don't have to rush around doing that while sick :) It also means that we've tidied a bunch up and it looks better and cleaner and it's just nice to have a clean and tidy house.
I'm happy today because weather-wise, it's the most beautiful day we've had in months, AND I have the day off work! :D
I'm happy today because yesterday I was unexpectedly given a small raise! :D It isn't even time for my yearly review or anything o_o
The bridge on my guitar is fixed in time for my 'Voice' audition on saturday :lalala:
How did it go, Safila!? :o
And I'm happy today because I get to spend time with friends; I've been feeling really lonely all weekend, so this is exactly what I needed :3
My audition went well I think :)
Got there at 4pm, had to fill in 'yes I will' forms, police checks, confidentiality forms etc and went and sat and started the waiting. about 5.30 I got taken in for my 'get to know you' chat in front of 3 producers etc where they asked things, I knew they would but they left asking about dad till last, it was all on my application but they started how long has he passed away, what was it, how bad was it for me and mum, how did I feel,did mum have a new bf, by the time they stopped I was in tears, but got out of there not too bad. Sat back down and 15 min later one of the producers came out and started grilling mum about what was her job in sydney and then what she worked at now etc, thanked her and left.. about 6.30 I got given my number, and we were moved up to the posh soft sofas, where I was plugged in and re tuned before being taken to another room where diff producers and a record exec were waiting and a small film crew. Did my 2 songs with my guitar and then had to sing with a backing track to my #3 song which was 'Valerie' by Amy Winehouse. They stopped me half way thru that song and said they loved it the best suited my voice keychanges etc etc , all smiled and nodded and said awesome etc. Had thanked them and was heading to the door when the record exec stopped me and goes ' I know this might seem strange but one of your audition songs was 'Do you think I'm sexy' by Rod Stewart but you changed it to your own'.. I'm thinking omg he's going to tell me it was innapropriate or something, but he said 'I really enjoyed it and was wondering if you would sing it again for me so I can see if it is just as good 'live'. So away I went as they all sat there smiling and bopping along. Got to the end, he came and shook my hand, patted me on the shoulder and thanked me again and I was out the door.
Have to wait 2 weeks to hear from them if I have passed that audition and if I do it's on to the blind audition where it will be in front of Delta Goodrem, Seal, Joel Madden and Ricky Martin.
So who knows, there was so amazing singers there on saturday.. Oh and we have all had to sign forms banning us from saying anything on social media, if caught you are kicked off straight away.
It certainly sounds like they really enjoyed your audition. I'm sorry they grilled you on all those things, I mean, I suppose like you said it is bound to happen, but I can imagine it's still hard. Best of luck though, will be waiting with excited anticipation to hear if you get through, though I'm sure you will :) :hugs:
Also, I suppose I'm happy today because I got chosen to be a mod on the rabbit forum that I'm on, which is nice since it's a really busy forum, and the mod selection was done via member recommendation, so it's always nice to know that people like you :lol:
I always wondered how they did that though, got everyone's stories told and recorded, before they even knew who would go through. Wow :D
Fingers crossed, good luck!
I'm happy today because I was worried I had the flu, turns out it's only a cold! Hooray! No muscle aches for me :D
Also, Bandit has been super cute today. (despite the nip I got when I trip to clip his nails earlier...)
I'm happy today because we just got out new oven hooked up! It's super exciting to have an oven after not having one (including stove) for about 4 weeks.
I'm happy today because I've had a great week! I got a lot done and I'm quite proud of myself, and I capped it off by seeing my favorite band in concert with my best friend ^^
I'm happy today cause I got an email telling me I got thru to the next round of that music tv program that I signed a confidentiality agreement about and can't say :lalala:
That's great Safila!
A friend of my mom's, her daughter was on Belgian Idols, she ended up 4th ...
I'm quite proud to say now for all these years, that I had the pleasure to perform with her 10 years ago, haha!
I'm quite happy, because I survived Kenny's sisters birthday party!
It was about time again I'd be going to parties again from that side of the family (they are quite loud and busy) so I always feel uncomfortable, but I was fine ^^
Im happy today becuause the exact same problem I have studied, were part of a written test i made today, so i will get a maximun score for it!.
I'm happy today cause I just had Samuel playing the game threads I like so much :lalala:
