It really depends on how I look at it. On one hand, I'm failing school miserable. On the other...I just simply kick ass. There's no explaining it. I'm just the personifaction of pure kickassness.

No. There's nothing to be happy about, and I only have myself to blame for that. I don't really care though.

I think I've always been fairly happy, but I'm a lot happier now because I've become more aware of life. I used to spend more time looking forward to the next step in life than I would enjoying the moments I was experiencing at the time. But since I've sort of slowed down and sat back, I think I'm happy. heh.

Unhappy

and desperation is the devil's work
it is the folly
of a boy's empty mind

and now i spend my days
turning tables round in mark's and spencer's
they don't seem to mind

why don't you lead me to a living end i promise that i'll entertain
my crippled friend
my crippled friend

i gave myself to sin i gave
myself to providence and i
am there and back again
the state that i am in

i gave myself to sin i gave
myself to providence and i
am there and back again
the state that i am in

i gave myself to sin and i
am there and back again
oh yeah

For the most part yes. There are quite a few things I'm unhappy with... although the things I'm thankful for and happy about far exceed those unpleasant things.

well said. i've also done the same. waiting for happiness was keeping me from having it.

Yes. Happiness is my own responsibility. IT'S SERIOUS BIZNISS

When I get sad, I just laugh at life. Sometimes it laughs back, and i cry and eat things. lol cunt, lol.

Arrow (+ sorry if its slightly long for some to read.)

well, i was horribly depressed about my life, until about 6 months to a year ago(it had lasted then for about 2-3 yrs., STRAIGHT). *fastfowards to today* i think since then, my life has greatly improved for the better. the reason i say that, is b/c i credit it a lot to the fact that i've discovered so many new bands/artists recently(+ that i've started to discover more indie bands), and i admit i owe that in a major way to the muzak taste of *all* you guys here. and yes, I DO mean that seriously, as a matter of fact.

the main other reason is b/c, since late last year, i've been on medication(Serzone). to make it brief, serzone basically is a medication that has to do w/something like(i'm not sure, BUT i think...) changing the chemical balance of your brain so that you feel better about yourself(and i think it has been a great success, personally for me).

finally, i also think that b/c of the fact that i've been doing a better job in recent months of getting in touch w/some of my old friends i'd almost forgotten completely about(seriously, its true).

one last thought i had, come to think of it, i believe its probably been a combination of all the abovementioned factors(and many more, i'd rather not go into detail over) that have helped me recently towards thinking much, much better of myself in recent times. and pretty much, that's it.

No, but I'm happy with my unhappiness, if that makes any sense.
