two self deprecating years of un--requitedness were put to an end all of 10 minutes ago.

if i don't read the AIM conversation over and over again, i don't believe that it happened.

--Roya


I don't have anything not to be happy about, and that makes me happy. hehe. Ethan's here. Yayness. --Fiona


I woke up at four-thirty this morning, and have been having the Best Day Ever. I can feel the love. And Dan Millman's book 'No Ordinary Moments' is really really good, I'm almost done, you all should read it. Luckily, my boy bought another Millman book for me last night, so I won't go through withdrawal ;). I love you guys, and I'm excited about camp, as well as now, and life, the universe, everything... -Erin


Melissa Townsend is an angel. She sent me the bestest package and I LOVE LOVE her to pieces. I love you mel. --Jadzia


I'm happy because from 10:30 to 11:30 I was unreasonably completely happy and manic. It's the weekend. I just spent well over an hour eating chocolate ice cream and making a list of my favorite words, though I still have to put them in order of most favorite to least. I'm quite proud of this, the words that is, not the ice cream. -- Emma


I'm happy cuz I saw Sam and Amy today, there's a sky on my floor, my hair looks good in a big bunchy clip, nothing tastes better than good cooked collards, today a storm rolled in like a great ocean or a sudden Beethoven symphony with racing grey waves of clouds, because I love you, because I am loved, because someone told me today that I did something right after all when I always thought that it never ven counted, because I do love art after all, because my mother makes cookies and my sister worries for me and my father reads me comic books.--Rosemary


It's funny how a new black tee-shirt can make me so very happy. -eira


I am so happy because I get to go see Yo-yo Ma live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your all more then welcome to become jealous now. Katana


I am soo happy for all the wonderful GoodBooks there are in this world.-Abbi

I mailed 3 packages yesterday (christmas packages if you must know) and baked cookies. and i'm leaving for louisiana in..*looks at caleder* in 16 days and i wrote in my journal for an hour two nights in row and i looked at pictures from camp and it made me happy. and i can play Donna Donna on the piano AND i have cat ears on and they're cute. the end. franny


I love Noam! He sent me an mp3 of "Simarik"! Yaaaaaaay!!! I'm going to subject everyone at my party to this song... over and over and over and over...... --marina


when i go home from work it stays light until i'm almost there. the days are getting longer. and i remember to breathe.

the fact that i can feel the most overused stereotypical cliche emotions, and it's ok, because it's as strong for me as it's been for anyone, no matter how much that feeling goes around.

i have a new type of clay to try tonight.

yum.

--Roya


It's a beautiful January day, one that makes me happy to be here. I'm facing my computer, but swivel around in my chair to look at the blue sky every once in a while. The door is open and sunshine is coming in. I'm talking with good friends about interesting things, and getting some things clear in my own mind. Fiona's coming this evening, a lot of other people are coming on Friday. I have some good ideas I can carry out. I'm working on a big test of myself this spring... heading out into the Real World on Greyhound, just to see how much I can handle.

I think I can handle it. --marina


im happy about well just about every thing! i just got back from the most wonderful 10 days of my life i just got the good news that i em going to camp and that my perents sed i can go travle basicly all i want as long as i have money!

so um ya...... love yall --thomas


Today I woke up, lazed around in bed and re-read a book I used to read all the time (Catherine, Called Birdy), went and walked around the track at the school by my house with my nose buried in 1984 for 40 minutes, ran around the track twice, and walked home. Mom handed me an envelope from the College Board, which contained my SAT scores..and they are really damn good! I am so happy. I thought I was going to completely bomb the math, and I very muchly didn't. This is the best day I've had since I can't remember what. --Emma


Yeah, I'm the man. I got one of those toy electric guitars with a mic and it's quite cool. My friend Amanda gave it to me for Xmas and we jammed together, me singing really horribly and swearing at my other friends for throwing stuff. I had a good day. Ben S.


I got two packages today, from Mel and Mike (with fudge and a mixed CD and the book "cunt".. take a guess as to who sent me which. ehehe), and I'm talking to Ethan, and I leave in 22 days, and I had a good practice this morning (go double loops!! YAY!), and I can play "solitaire" on my guitar, and "winter" on the piano, and I'm working on Maple Leaf Rag (yeah. Right. I'll be able to play that in this lifetime. *snorts*), and... yeah. Wheee! --Fiona


i kissed somebody beautiful, then i watched Pretty In Pink, and i'm happy about it. three of the most important boys to grace the state of My Life drove to see My Face last night, and it's something to be happy about. i'm listening to bad rap, and i'm about to read up on Jehova. what am i happy about? it's my day off! -naomi


  Ari.

--Caer


Four words: I Got Camp Stuff. --Fiona


November 24, 2001 7:29p, Pacific time. I'm happy because I am competent and learning a lot. I have flown solo, alone, for about four hours now, and today I flew solo in the wind. (ten knots of it) I am becoming skilled with that in which I haved craved to be skilled for so long. I'm also happy becauase I don't worry about body image nearly as much. And I had a lovely concert to play all afternoon, then I walked around the Portland Saturday Market at Handsome Eric's side, and had a most pleasant conversation with the wooden spoon maker. Sarah Brown

--- I get to see my awesome grandma tomorrow who alternately inspires, annoys, confuses and again inspires me. And I also just realized how much I love that feeling when people are as excited to see you as you are to see them. -eira


Today, I worked all afternoon with Mom and Carrie at the store, Season'sHarvest, which Mom opened six months ago (almost seven now!), stocking shelves and running the register and bagging bulk items. It's fun to work hard and make things neat. Afterward, we went out to eat with Ruth to the Buen Tiempo, a good mexican restaurant in Ouray. Good food, good company. I also saw Harry and Mouse, and got chocolate from Mouse's chocolate shop and saw the new things Harry has done to his arcade/video store (he put in a pool table, Mitch P's old one, with some fix-ups made to it), and re-arranged nicely. I may also end up working for him installing wireless internet service in the valley between here and there, which is fun -- computer work that's mostly climbing thigs, hanging antennas and drilling holes to run wires.

Life is good.

	--Ari

I am happy because I got to see Shayna (and Mike) today, and that was fun. I'm happy because I got a letter from Marina that was a bazillion pages long and now I have to write back to people. I'm happy because I have a kick ass swing music mix that I made last night, and then this afternoon mom put on Joe Jackson and I swung danced (is that right?) all over the house. AND, I have skating today and I'm full of energy and really happy for other reasons unbeknownst to me. Yayness. --Fiona

I'm happy for two reasons right about now. the first one is because I'm listening to bob marley's 'one love'. The other is because my hair is now almost long enough to be considered 'long' --Josh


Athena's entry lalala. I'm psyched at the moment! I was just going online, and I idly looked up Athena Matilsky...I stumbled across this site on wiki that was all about me and gave me such the greatest ego boost! Thank you to everyone who wrote on it, that made my day. Love you people to death, and I miss you horribly. ~Athena.

I'm happy because a group unschooler home is getting damn close to reality. Like, next summer maybe. I'm happy because I thought I lost a story I wrote a long time ago on a disk and Dad recovered it. I'm happy because I love Kathleen. I'm happy because Dawn wrote me a letter. I'm happy because I frickin love my job. I'm happy because I don't have to get up at 7 am tomorrow. I'm happy because New Years is soon and so so many cool people are going to be there. Helllllllll yeah. And then I'm going to go visit people... and work... and maybe even buy a house this summer!!! And right now I'm going to go write people. Yes yes yes. Happiness. --marina


i'm happy because i love the moth girl and i'm listening to good music and... yeah, basically, my life is pretty much rock all day. -ali


I'm happy because I saw Rent again tonight for the fourth time in three years. I'm happy because I finally woke up and smelled the coffee and realized my life is really good, and I finally realized how much love there is in my life... maybe my friends don't know how to express it or they don't take the time to show it, but part of me just knows all of them do care and they do love me. -eira


I'm happy because the sky is blue, I did a good handstand, I'm almost done with the prep for my room and I'll be able to start painting it really soon, Carrie & Ari are probably coming tomorrow, I've been getting a bunch of hugs & squeezes, I found a bunch of stuff cleaning out my bookshelf today that I'd been missing for years, I got a letter from a Japanese friend today, and schlepping plaster into all the little thumbtack holes in my walls while listening to the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy is just so much fun. And yesterday I finally did most of the really big things that have been itching at my conscience for weeks. --Rosemary


I'm happy because.... *drumroll, please* I'm going to Marina's Party!!!!! a smiling --Fiona


I can play Ted's teddy bear song! Go me! --marina


I'm happy becuase I'm learning guitar, because I have my own boat and most of all, because I'm in love, what else could a guy ask for? --zachd


 9/24/01 11:55 am

I'm happy because it's sunny, and I'm listening to loud music. NBTSC is up. Mostly I'm happy because I have friends, and I know they're well. I'm happy because I have Plans. I'm happy because I'm not anything else. --marina


I'm happy because I just ate half a pint of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food ice cream (with chopsticks). I'm happy because my hair looks really cool. I'm happy because Emily gets here tomorrow. I'm happy because I leave for camp on Sunday. I'm happy because I just got to watch these two babies who are the sweetest little kids ever (and they smell good). I'm happy because the kids who went around shooting out people's car windows with pellet guns got prosecuted and have to pay for everything, and they don't get their drivers' licenses for a year, and two of them have to go to Juvenile Hall for 2 weeks, and they're all expelled from their schools. I'm happy because I have money now, and I'm not stressed out. I'm happy because when I get back from camp, I'll be starting kickboxing, jazz, ballet, pilates, and the fall session of ice time. I'm happy because my freestyle 7 footwork is really pretty and ice-dancey and flow-y. I'm happy because I got to watch Pop-Up Videos, M*A*S*H, Wonder Years, and the Goodwill Games at these people's house yesterday while their kids were sleeping (and I got paid $30 for it, too!). I'm happy because I finished "Ripley Underground" and am starting on "Ripley's Game". I'm happy because I'm starting to understand algebra. I'm happy because I also start volunteering at Children's Hospital when I get back. I'm happy because I'm understanding more spanish nowadays. I'm happy because I'm packed for camp. I'm happy because I watched "Life Is Beautiful" with my family a couple nights ago. I'm happy because it's sunny out. I'm happy because there was a spectacular thunderstorm last night. I'm happy because I have my train tickets right here. I'm happy because I learned how to play "Grey" on my guitar. I'm happy because I also learned "Every Angle", "Brief Bus Stop" and.... some other song. I'm happy because life is good right now. --Fiona


I'm happy, because I do not exist! I am no longer simply the sum of all my achievements, all my possessions, and all my fabricated opinions. All that is good and holy in my life can be found in a couple books that together cost me a buck, my personality available to anyone with a library card! And yet I have lost nothing, and gained so much more. Emptying my cup so it may be filled with new wine, as I heard it sung once. I've found mentors I can love as fathers, and learn more about beautiful life from their wise words, and the simplicity of mind to let it all seep in without restraint. Adam, Lotus, Ali and I once talked about what the soul looks like; 'flashes of light' was adam's comment, and I said I was Blue. The depth and mystique of the color has fascinated me all my life, and I prayed that I would have that depth and simplicity in my mind; it was granted. I woke this morning feeling calmer than I've ever been for a long time; knowledge that I have no need to carry around all my guilt and regret all my life, just dump it on the roadside and carry on with a light step. I recognized the feeling well; it's the spirit of the train. No need to worry about the destination, I am on my way; no worry about Home, it is becoming more distant every second. Everywhere you look is life, everywhere movement, everywhere Light in peoples eyes, in the sunrises over beautiful America, everywhere the possibility for love. Reality, I have named it. My thoughts and emotions plain to my mind's eye, plain to God, on a clear slate of the color blue. Well and well. I'm happy! I'm leaving for camp in a few days, and let come what may. :~Danopian


I'm happy about this spiffy mug I got for my birthday. It's deep green, my favorite color; it holds a heck of a lot of liquid and keeps it hot for a long time; I can fit four of my big, thick fingers around the handle, as opposed to most mugs that will barely let me stick three fingers in there; and it has cute little evergreens all over, along with the word "Washington" in gold lettering. Perfect grip, heat, size, coloring, and state pride rolled into one cup! It's hard to believe.

Actually I'm happy about a lot more than that; it's just what was on my mind tonight. Take happiness wherever you can get it, eh? --Mitchell


I love comfortable old groups of friends, where everyone knows your name, the feeling of belonging, sore muscles from laughing and tickling. I love the taste of stirfry and apple juice, eaten sitting on the floor. I see my Mother and Heather in just a few days, and Rick the day after tomorrow, that all makes me happy. I love giving my love to you, in cups of steaming tea, hugs, walks under the trees. Let me carry the world and shield you from yourself... -Dawn


I love Justin Roberts. --Fiona


I love Franny! She called me today, totally made me feel better, completely made my day. Girl you rock!~! I made her a present today too, 'cause she's soo awesome... shhhh its a surprise... ~Jadzia

I'm happy 'cause mom said I could go visit Adam. And if I go visit Adam, I get to see Kat, too! And maybe Marina! *cheers* And that would be really cool.

I'm also happy because I learned "Drive" (Incubus) on guitar. And Gravel. And Independance Day and Make Me Stay, and I'm listening to "Last Beautiful Girl", and I had an awesome skating practice today, and my competition's this weekend, and I'm gonna' KICK ASS!

AND, mom and I are going to finish my spins dress today, and I leave for camp in exactly 1 month, and Candra gets here in 17 days, and Emily gets here in 29, and.... life is good. --Fiona

  • screams I WANT TO COME! I WANT TO COME! I WANT TO COME! (1,000 x) --Ali
    • Then come already. I'm also not telling you how I placed, because you're not online. Hmph. --Fiona

I'm happy today because everything seems to me smiling at me sept for my mom sigh --Heather


Oh my god!! I've convinced my incredible piano teacher to be staff for camp next year! Heehee...he's such a great guy, and he has the biggest crush on Grace! It's soso sweet. He says that he worships her! Haha...he's the coolest. Today I walked in and said "I've found out a way for you to come to NBSTC." And he laughed and said "Really? Cool! Count me in!" He's awesome. ~Becky~


A truly fabulous conversation with an incredible person... ~Jadzia


having spent a scary night in Istanbul with no money at ALL i finally have cash on me! yay! Im happy now...Dawn


I just got the Matrix on DVD delivered to my home (now all I need is my DVD player and everything will be just spiffy) and I also got Kat's package... and the envelope! It has Tom Petty and Keanu and David Bowie on it and it made me happy! And it has pictures from Becky's party and a nifty mixed tape and I'm just in a generally good mood even though I'm sick. --Ali


I just looked at WhatSessionQuickList. It makes me happy. Camp is soon. I'm going to see a lot of people. That makes me very, very happy. --marina


Whee! I am happy. Why?... uh well cuz I cleaned most of my room (my Virgo sensibilities are thus satisfied), and I almost finished an important task for the Green Party, and then I went to the office where I used to work and hung out and the guy I like gave me a hockey stick! :) yah and I'm learning hockey, I find that I'm a natural at most sports it's great. And and and I might take flying lessons (!) over the summer, whoa. And get my drivers license. So I'm not feeling quite as useless as I did before. And now I'm going to take a nap. Goodday!

--Eireann

I'm wildly delighted because I'm learning three different types of weaving - fingerweaving, loom weaving and card weaving. Not only that, I have instructions for several other types of wool crafts, and I shall soon be making the most decorative bags, sweaters, blankets and other items of clothing. And.... on top of that, I'm getting fleece and learning how to do my own spinning and dying. And I have people to help me learn all of this, as well as books. So I am delighted.

Oooh... and then, just a few other little happy things... I've got my engagement ring, and a date set for the wedding. And there's only three more weeks left of classes, then a week's holidays before exams begin. So summer is coming really soon, and I'm totally looking forward to that.

March the 22nd, in the darling year of 2000 + 1. I'm happy again! I love being happy! And I've been happy alot lately! I'm happy because my job really isn't that bad, and I got my first paycheck for 4 days of work, and it was for $155!!!! Hahahaha! Plus, Ted called me last night, and I've been talking on the phone to him quite alot lately, which is very nice. Plus, Ted's going to come visit Ryland early, so I'm going to (hopefully) go up and visit them next week; but I have to talk to Ryland about that first, and I haven't so far, 'cause I've been busy. I am in total awe about my friends too. They are some of the most inspiring and incredible people I've ever known. Like Roya, how she writes on my AllSoRad page and my makes me shine and shine for hours after I read it. Damn, I'm thinking of things I want to write about all of my friends, but there's sooooo much! I need to write on all of their AllSoRad pages!!! Ok...my last few happy things are that: HaHA! I got up the nerve to talk to a cute guy at work! (No, I wasn't flirting, I was just practicing talking to cute guys!) =) Also, we're getting a new car and I get to go pick it up today with my Dad! Yay! AND I'm learning tarot, which is so awesome, AND I finally, finally finished ToTheLimitsOfMyMind yesterday!!!! Mwahhahaha! ~The-sincerely-amazed-that-I-have-that-much-happy-stuff-in-my-life, Becky~

march 21, 2001 i'm happy cuz i wasn't earlier, but went and wrote on people's allsorad pages and now i just feel so amazingly lucky and grateful and happy that i know these wonderful people. i'm happy because i'm going to joshua tree in a few weeks, which is the healthiest place in the whole world, and cleans me, inside and out. i'm happy because i feel strong right now, emotionally capable. yeah. i want to go make somebody a package or tape mix, because i've been reading all the other "i'm so happy because" entries, and they all have to do with cool packages or tape mixes! i'm just happy because it's the first day of spring (our new years) and it feels like summer, and i come alive in the summer. i feel like everythings possible, and i don't feel all waxy and dead and it's nice not feeling dead. hurrah for blue skies and warmth. --RoyaBoya


The fucking amazing play I was unbelievably lucky enough to be in last year (the reason I couldn't go to camp) has been nominated for three Helen Hayes Awards! (Washington DC equivalent of the Tonys or Oscars. This is a big deal. :-> ) The play is Heaven by George Walker, and god I miss it so much.

See http://www.helenhayes.org/about/2001_nominees.html and http://www.woollymammoth.net/season21/heaven.html

p.s. Oh, also, we're buying a new house!!! I'm very happy about that.

I really am happy about those things.... So why is it I'm so sad so often? Oh, right. Because I have no friends. That's why.


I stopped doing the "P" word and sent out my registration for 1st session... I'm happy but kinda nervous 'cause i'm playing hookie from work today and plan to tell my boss next week that i want to leave this job. But I know I'll be verry happy once i quit. yeay... :) -Mari


HA! I just got my registration confirmation! Yesssss! I still have to come up with $385, but not for another four months. I'm also glad 'cuz I e-mailed my resume to the general manager of Grand Central Bakery last night, along with an earnest request for a job. My dad helped me write it, so it sounded fairly good. I haven't heard back from her yet, though. nervous shivers I hope this works out. I'm about to wash the dishes, and I'm happy about that, too. Seriously. I enjoy it. I make an incredible houseguest because I'm always eager to help with the dishes. I'm trying to figure out what I want to listen to while I'm scrubbing. Tori, Deep Forest, Manheim Steamroller, Indigo Girls, Peter Gabriel, 10,000 Maniacs, Pink Floyd... Decisions, decisions. -Mitchell


March 7, 2001

Oh yes! I am happy because I look nice, and it's because I think so and I don't give a fuck what anyone else thinks. I am happy because midterms were moved up and I have more studying time, because the snow is melting, because I'm listening to good music, because I'm visiting Witch Baby on Monday, and because I am beautiful and strong and I like myself. I am optimistic of the future.

I'm reallyreallyREALLY happy because I'm leaving on Friday to see my bestest friend (besides you, Ali) whom I haven't seen in 2 years, and then after that, I get to see Dan!!! *jumps around ecstatically* -JessicaSkater


i'm peachy keen, cuz A) i finished copying my zine and B) i got a job. B) also translates to many other opportunites to be happy, of course. i'm pretty excited about the job, even though it is a shitty fast food one yet again, cuz this restaurant also trains developementally disabled people and reformed gang members to be part of the fast food workforce, so hopefully i will be able to broaden my horizons and learn how to work with "all kinds of people" as they put it. jenny


Tuesday, March 6th at 1:14 am. I'm happy because I finally got myself together and sent out Nao's package yesterday morning, because I'm almost done with Rachel's package and I finished Matt B's package as well. I'm happy because I worked my new job last night and didn't die. I'm happy because Matt B's going to visit me next month. I'm happy because I got a letter from Sarah B, Alex BW and Emily GS yesterday. I'm happy because I didn't stay online very late last night. I'm happy for once. ~Jasmine


Tuesday March the 6th, 10:44AM BeckyTime/ I am happy. I am happy because I'm finally happy enough to write happy things on this page! *giggles* I'm happy because I am so overcoming my phonophobia, and last night I called Roya, and we talked for a long time, which was very nice, and I told her about some stuff that has been bothering me, and she told me what to do about it, which was just exactly the sort of thing that I needed. I'm happy because I'm auditioning for a musical in Madison tonight, and I might, might, might get in! And it's not just any musical, mind you! It's "Men Suck, the musical"!!! Ok, so alot of men don't suck, but that's beside the point. The point is, I've been having problems with some of the men in my life lately, so they do suck, and now I can go sing and dance about how much they suck!! *laughs* I'm happy because I had a really weird, complex dream last night, and I was brave in my dream, even if I woke up right before I was probably going to die...and I talked to my mom and sister about it, and they were interested, and had some interesting insights. I'm happy because I'm writing a story that people like, and that I like, and this will be the first story that I've ever finished!! Yay me! I'm happy because my skin is clearing up, and I'm taking lots of vitamins, and I'm taking tons of space on this page, and I love myself today. ~Becky~


I'm happy because I finished a nineteen-page letter to Dawn today, overcame my fear of the phone and called Bob about the job (I love to say that! It just rolls off my tongue!), wore my legs out on my bike, and lay down in my backyard and watched the sky. I was alive today! Wheee! -Mitchell

i am so so happy cuz wiki is working on my computer again! (just after i complained to adam that it wouldn't...irony is so crazy...) and cuz my hair has faded to a very pretty pink. and cuz i talked to cedar for like two hours last night. and cuz i met this really awesome singer/songwriter and she has the cutest voice, *and* a nose stud. and cuz kate wrote the sweetest thing on my rad page. and cuz i've actually managed to keep a diary lately. and cuz...well...it's like everything's smiling today, the sun and the wind and the walls and the air, even the people on the bus who were all scowly, are all glowing with the intense jubilation of being alive. love you. jenny

I'm extreamly happy at this point, becasue I am finally building a trebuchet! That is a catapult which uses a counterwight. I've been planing on building one since last halloween, and it's early august now! maybe tomorrow it'll even be ready for a test shot! I'm so extatic! the counterwight is a big chunk of concrete, so I'll have to wait till that's dry, and it's driving my crazy! but maybe I'll work on improving the sling.... So if you see a big rock winging your way, you'l know it's only me and my trebuchet! actually, this one's only 6 feet tall, but that's still really cool! --Josh


I happy that I only have 13 days until camp. I'm happy that my mom bought bannanas. I'm happy that I have not been abducted by aliens, and that I'm sick enough to stay home from work but not sick enough to feel bad. I'm happy that I'm happy that I'm happy... TheMysteryPoster
