Are you happy?

<p>It is a simple question.</p>

<p>I'm never sure how to answer this. Does happe=satisfied? If not, which am I? Bleh.</p>

<p>Actually, I notice that I'm sort of apathetic lately. Happy is sad is mad is afraid is whatever. Gee thanks, winter.</p>

<p>See it's hard to be slick and concise with a "Yes", because of the 10-character limit, but yup I am</p>

<p>right now I'm stressed but I'd still say I'm very, very happy.</p>

<p>I think happy=ignorant. </p>

<p>Because think about it, if you're really that happy then you aren't thinking about all the *<strong><em>ed up sad *</em></strong> in the world, like the war, starvation, AIDS, etc.</p>

<p>AND if you are thinking about them, then you probably are just trying to repress the problems in your own life, therefore you are subconsciously unhappy.</p>

<p>Maybe I'm cynical.</p>

<p>Of course I'm not happy. Look at me, I'm a big fat slob. I've got bigger titties than you do. I've got more chins than a Chinese phonebook. I've not seen my willie in two years, which is long enough to declare it legally dead. </p>

<p>I can't stop eating. I eat because I'm unhappy, and I'm unhappy because I eat.</p>

<p>^^^^LOOOOOVEEEEESS IIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTt</p>

<p>You love my misery? You are truly an awful, awful person.</p>

<p>Hahaha, no sorry, I so wasn't referring to your misery!!!!!</p>

<p>I love Austin Powers, thats what it should have said. :)</p>

<p>I'm kind of in purgatory. I'm not too unhappy, but I'm not particularly happy. </p>

<p>My bad posture has started to give me back problems, my shoolwork is becoming more intensive, I have trouble sleeping (mainly getting to sleep), April is coming quickly (which could actually be a good thing, hopefully), I have been very unhealthy lately (food and exercise-wise) and lastly I no longer have free time. The free time I have is sucked up by CC!</p>

<p>However (there's always a "however"), it is second semester (home stretch), I just found out the the retired head of the english department at Brown wants to write me a recommendation, and lastly I am going to sign up to be a tutor at the local middle school (which I am excited about).</p>

<p>Thus, purgatory. :cool:</p>

<p>As of now? No, not happy at all.</p>

<p>this very minute I am in the doldrums of depression, but it is only until tomorrow at 2:30 when all my finals are done and I have aced them, or at least gotten a good enough grade ot keep an A. Then I will be pysched. I better go work on some of those finals now :)</p>

<p>im never happy</p>

<p>I used to be a very happy person, but then things happen, and then I wasn't. I was actually pretty depressed. And then, I came out of it. And now I'm happy again. Not happy as in the I-smile-all-the-time happy, but happy as in the I'm-content-with-where-I-am-and-I-have-enough-perspective-to-consider-the-problems-of-the-world-around-me happy.</p>

<p>I am happy until I see kids on CC with perfect stats post their chances.</p>

<p>i am awesomely happy at this point in my life :) for the first time in ages, actually</p>

<p>Whats not to be happy about? True school sucks and just draaaags on, but eh its life. Overall im very happy (as always). :)</p>

<p>That's a good point. For those who aren't happy, why?</p>

<p>For me everybody around me seems to have something good happen to them so I live in envy of others. That's bad. Also stuff that has happened to me in the past made me this way.</p>

<p>no. why aren't i happy??</p>

<ol>
<li> this world sux</li>
<li> no body the hell cares to listen to me</li>
<li> nothing is going my way</li>
<li> my friends suck</li>
<li> i just can't stand anything.</li>
<li> i am going to cry</li>
</ol>

<p>Sometimes, but I think it's a temporary forgetting of things that I'm unsatisfied with myself/choices I've made.</p>

<p>usna_reject's post strikes a chord with me. When I was in high school (though I never actually thought of it), I used to feel like I had something good going for me. Now in college, I'm feeling like a failure and just disillusioned.</p>
