The Happy Post

I got the guitar I wanted for Christmas & I got a surprise or two as well, which I actually wasn't expecting.

 

Yeah, I love that feeling too.

I am extremely happy because for months I was dreading Christmas this year, everyone was bickering the week leading up to Christmas, but Christmas day, our entire family was there (immediate family), both my sisters and all their kids, my little family and my parents all at my parents house and my Christmas wish finally came true.

It brings tears of happiness to my eyes, because this year, was the first Christmas I have had since I was really little where NO ONE fought and argued!!!!!!!!! NO ONE!!!!! It was truly wonderful and magical! We had a absolutely wonderful Christmas and it really has made me so happy, I can't even describe how happy I am at the moment. I'm crying I'm that happy at the moment.

I wanted so much to have a wonderful Christmas, not for me, but for my mother incase it was her last, which it may very well be, and it was perfect! We had such a lovely FAMILY orientated day and I didn't leave there till 6pm lastnight. The night before we went out looking at fairy lights on peoples houses and 3 young children were dressed in a Santa suit, and elf outfits and gave us candy canes, was so sweet, and then Christmas day was just magical.

I hope that everyone else had a Christmas that was just as magical and wonderful and full of love and joy as we did.

Today, I honestly couldn't be any happier than I am now.

 

Tor, I'm so happy to hear that you had such a wonderful holiday. I'm glad that your Christmas wish came true!!

 

Tor, that's awesome. I'm really happy for you, cause I truly wished for you to have a great Christmas. So yay!

 

I went to B&N and got three books:

"Scribble Doodles" from the kid's clearance section (for me)
"Unjust Enrichment" a book on American POWs. (for my history teacher.)
"The Poor Will Be Glad" a book on poverty. (for me!)

Plus Barrel O Monkeys and a big thing of play doh.

I'm happpppy!

 

I'm just happy!


I know people are saying that lately, but I'm happy because this year I have you guys. My parents and I haven't been getting along at all lately, and we fought all Christmas Day. Nowadays we can't even talk to each other without eventually screaming and getting angry. I have no interest in trying to make it better with them, and I just regret that things ended up this way. But having you guys makes me the happiest person in the entire world. You remind me that there are people out there who do love me, and the WF is my haven and my home. You guys are more my family than my actual family is. I know that may seem sad, but to me, it's a blessing.


I love you guys so much!

 

Beautiful number, huh?? My ACT score!! Isn't it great? Yay. Yay. Yay. Yay. Yay.

 

Wow, I had a 19 on my ACT score. Good job.

 

well done emily!

A miracle has happened.... I WROTE!!!!! WHOOOOOT!!!!

 

Yay for Tor writing!

And Emily, congratulations! All your hard work paid off, great job!!!

 

I'm still floating on cloud nine because I got a guitar for Christmas. That, and because I don't have to get any blood drawn for three months. Woohoo! Thanks Doc!

 

What a great day it is...do I really need any other reason to be happy? *smiles*

 

Fantabulous, Emily!! *shakes Em's hand*

 

I'm happy because I had CAFFINE!!!

 

I am happy that Christmas is over. Everyone liked their gifts. And, while it is going to sucky and chaotic for the next week or two, I am getting new flooring. I got to watch the 25 year old carpet being torn up this morning before I left for work.

 

I am happy because.....


GREEN BAY IS IN THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!!

 

I'm happy because I had the most awesome day with my friend. We behaved absolutely silly and laughed ourselves to tears, sprayed perfume all over us (I still smell to that Tommy Hilfiger thing ), picked out ballrooms for our weddings (which, we decided, should be in Pride and Prejudice style) walked miles and miles, drank tea like grown ups (not really), ate chocolates and watched pictures... I had a great time.

 

My favorite song just came on my iPod.

 

My floors are all demoed and out. I wasn't expecting them to get it done so fast.

 

Congrats, Em! I knew you'd do well. That's what I got the first time too. I remember feeling so relieved that I'd earned a 29 (as opposed to the nine I thought I'd received), but a little ticked that it wasnt a 30. There's barely a difference between a 28 and 29, but a HUGE difference between 29 and 30, eh?

Are you going to try for higher?

 

Uh. Yeah. In February. Lol I really hope I can bring it up to a 30!!!

 

When you test, do you get to keep whichever score is highest? Or is it the most recent score? I only took the SAT once...

And I'm happy because Joel and I finished our favors for the wedding. One thing down...one million to go.

 

I'm happy because the problem I thought was going to be so huge is now taken care of. Relief is evident upon my radiant face... for a day.

 

Most colleges take the highest composite score. Some (Like University of TN @ Knoxville) take the highest of each category.

 

Very cool. Good luck on your next go at the ACT! I'm sure you'll get your 30.
