    Meh at the moment, but I fear 2008 could bring with it a downward spiral.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    Okay I suppose. Though I have to find a full time job for the next six months, and I have to decide on a different course to do in college next year...

    Going to london in the morning! I love holidays!
    And college is easy, job is fun, mates are fantastic, girls exist (:D), food tastes great, sleep is awesome, drink is fun, plenty of good stuff has happened, plenty more to look forward to!
    Life's good :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    not really :(
    fed up of college, fed up of being single, fed up of everything really..........

    (plays R.E.M.'s "Shiny Happy People" and soaks up irony)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭snorlax


    I figure we'll never be fully happy with our lives so long as we keep wanting things like a car/bf etc..and then even if you get what you want your mind switches to something else which you haven't got.

    Well so long as there's someone who cares about you somewhere in there world that's reason enough to be happy :).

    I agree. Happiness is a disposition, an attitude towards life. Not a state attained by having or getting certain things. Although they help too :)

    I think we'd all be happier if we took that attitide.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 The Dudette


    You take the good with the bad me thinks. Going through a rocky patch at the mo, which has me down the last while. But in about 8 weeks I'll have my little baby in my arms. Once he/she is healthy, nothing in the world will bring me down then.

    Going by that definition so, I'm happy.

    I can has cheezburgers! Also I has a hot dog (google it if ye don't get it) :D

    I'm content and I'm happy with that. There have been plenty of times in my life when content was a place to aspire to, they were hard times too.

    Can always improve things, all I wish for is a healthy and happy family and friends. Believe you me, that's worth more than most things in this life.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Cokehead Mother

    Kicks Cremo in the nuts!

    Now I'm happy! :D

    Seriously life could be worse I suppose. Annoyed by a couple of things more than being unhappy. I think most people are like that but some might need to forget their troubles more.

    I recommend alcohol or some other drug at regular intervals as a remedy for not being able to forget troubles.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭Vertigo100


    Surely things are not that bad????.......I was in a similar situation myself in the not too distant past, but came thru it, better than ever............so if you dont mind me asking, what was your ''Offence''!!!:):eek:..........

    My offence is an ongoing one! Its my job!!! Strange you may say but in my line of work i am surrounded by a lot of eligible women who are from time pretty forward in what they want if you mean and my gf reckons she cant trust me and therefore gives me constant grief! Well that and falling asleep in the sitting room with no pants on last sunday when i was locked! :rolleyes:

    I think I think too much to be generally happy. I try to cram my weekends with as much boozing and hanging around as I can which tends to offset all the negativities. uh oh...I sense a party is about to start here...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    No. I'm not happy.

    I don't know where my poncho is. Or my sombrero for that matter.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,635 ✭✭✭tribulus


    Right now, yes.

    I'll come back to you in August.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭kelle


    I'm very happy with life, but it's taken me years to achieve that.
    I have a job I love, and it pays me enough to be able to have a lifestyle I enjoy (no luxuries, enough to get by).
    I have a wonderful husband and 3 beautiful children, and we are all in good health.
    I have a house I love in a good area.
    If there's one thing I would change, it's to have my parents back but they died 3 years ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,196 ✭✭✭Crumble Froo


    yep, i am. could be happier, i miss home like mad sometimes, and a lot of my mates, but things are good. im living my dream, and im happy :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,196 ✭✭✭Crumble Froo


    No. I'm not happy.

    I don't know where my poncho is. Or my sombrero for that matter.
