1. It is an incredibly nice spring day. I woke up grumpy, sullen, and cross, and now I am bouncing about full of energy and happiness.

2. I went to a student-staff meeting on behalf of the incredibly exploited teaching assistants yesterday, managed a tricky political situtation very well, and pretty much got what we wanted. So I am full of the joy of having unsuspected capabilities. It is happening to me a lot at the moment. Yayy!

Hsing I. Actually making progress in martial arts practice. Yes!

Doubtless in class next week I will feel as talentless as normal
- but this week I shall be hurling myself into practice, and making my g/f laugh/feel slighly sickened because of my over-enthusiasm ie doing it at 6.30 in the morning in my pants.

Last night while procrastinating with file sharing, I found an entire Pop Will Eat Itself album that I had never heard of before! (Now For a Feast) w00! My day is set!

I got a job. Not just any job.

I got a job I want, doing something I want to do and could be pretty good at, with people I like at a place I like. I got a job that could well go somewhere. It's the one I was waiting for, I guess.

I'm moving to London as a result of said job.

I found out about it on Friday. It starts on Monday. Yowzer. Am happy, but there's a state of nerves and shock and apprehension and flathunting terror. But there's lots of good stuff; the job, the money said job provides, the fact I'm looking for a flat not just for me but for the girl too. Exhausted, physically, emotionally, but really looking forward to things.

"Yikes" is my best reaction at the moment. Yikes in a good way.

Nice one Paleface!

Hey and guess what? I never made a crazy thread just to rant about it! Maybe i'm learning!

The unbeatable satisfaction of scraping years of paint off the edges of the glass in my windowframes with one of those weid little razorblade scraper thingies. Oh and doing it now, at stupid o'clock in the evening, just because I feel like it and there is no-one to tell me not to.

Dress-Up Avon Doll. Spacefall is the king. Look how cute he looks in the woolly hat saying 'I HEART SLASH',* the black flares and the t-shirt saying "Geek"!

*I have a hat just like that. Except black and pink, not green and pink. Another fan knitted it for me. Fan crafts give me a big happy.

I didn't hate my friends when I went out drinking with them last night. My friends aren't boring and one of them gave me a ticket to see Snow Patrol tomorrow!

ONLY NICE THINGS

16:46 / 28.03.04

Oh! Lovely Avon!

(I have a Snow Patrol CD that I don't think I've ever listened to - any good, Anna?)

As usual, the young of many different animal species are making me happy. They are so *tiny*...

Also, I have moved loads of my books into a new dresser, and as such can actually reach them, although I have far too many still and will have to work something out - either stacking or maybe a giveaway. But I am slowly getting to see the floor of my bedroom again, which is good...

D, that is the most wonderful site. It’s given me a happy, so to speak. God, I love this thread.

Cheap. Easy. Cruel.

Last night I went to see a band that I've loved for four years for the first time that they haven't been the support band in the biggest venue that they've ever filled with an audience that sung their single back to them and only about twenty people who had heard the two albums before their most recent one and they were absolutely fucking fantastic and I wanted to hug them when the guitarist got teary because you could see that their fantasy had just played out for them and ohmygod I'm never going to love a gig that much ever again. Go Snow Patrol!!

Just managed to get my dog to stand still for long enough to get an ultra-cute photo of her as the wallpaper on my phone...

Sickeningly cute.

I got pronouned right by a tutor today. It's 3 weeks into semester and I'd been trying to schedule a time when I could go and see her and do the requisite explaining, because I had noticed her assiduously avoiding pronouns in previous classes. Obviously someone (my Honours Co-Ordinators? the Tooth Fairy?) already explained it all. I don't have to. Can't describe how happy it made me.

This just gave me a happy like no other. 'Swhy I like the C+F people - even though it's only for the one day, "Pink + Kittens - A Homoliberal Agenda Community" is the bollocks.

Calling out to the Tiger Lillies for a request.

Having Martyn Jacques (male soprano and Dickensian grotesque) tell everyone else to fuck off and play my request.

Knowing, for the next ten minutes, that I had some (tiny) hand in the unearthly exhilarating noise pouring out of him. Was wonderful.

Pixies tickets go on sale Thursday!... la la la!

That's two of my favourite bands now, (The other being The Pogues) who I previously mourned the loss of, but not only have miraculously reuinited, but have done so under such circumstances that I actually get to see them for the first time!!

Lugging my ancient 17" monitor over to my office to replace the tiny 14" screen that the university provided. It's like a whole new computer...I can actually read what's on the screen!

Going into town to buy a cartload of boxes in preparation for my impending move to somewhere better than here. OK, so there's still four months to go, but I figure I'm better off starting early.

I am happy now.

Heh. Only on Barbelith would you find a wiki page specifically created for Donnie Darko.

Because it’s been a fantastic sunny day. And I’ve been the garden all evening, with wine and comics. And because I had the good sense to shave my head at the start of summer this year, instead of stupidly leaving it until summers almost over like I usually do. All these things are currently making me happy.

Kat's dealing.

Only explanation.

My lovely day: much-needed supervision being wonderful and incredibly inspiring. I feel recharged and reminded that, I'm bloody good at my 'job' and I'm putting together a workable plan that has a good chance of me winding up with exactly the vocation/job path i want. w00t!

Cheap as chips veg shopping at the marvellous market; tomatoes that have that proper tom smell, discernible a mile off. mmmmm.

New Trainers=£7=yum.

Long slow tea and chat with new friend at The Best Teashop Ever.

Lazy, organised cooking prep - with added Motown and spliffs - so the time-consuming but lush recipe I'm trying out on friends is going to be simple and easy and yummilicious.

'forementioned friends coming over for a catch-up.

I've cleaned my flat properly for the first time in about a month. I forget how lovely it is until i do this.

I feel productive. (altho' not right this minute, obviously *g* )

Mostly bumping this thread, because there are too fucking many "I'm a fucked-up miserable person aaarrrgh" threads hovering near the top of the list.

But if you really wanna know, I am going to the gym in 2 hours, and I am going to kick my own ass so hard I won't know what hit me. YAY! I have recently become a gymaholic, and haven't been there for 4 days, and I feel so, so so so awful at the moment and I KNOW it's because I haven't blown off energy (and maybe also because I ate Pringles for dinner last night due to being stuck at a theatre dress rehearsal).

Right. I am getting a happy in a big effing way!
