Why are you happy right now?

[BrailleDecibel]

New Impending Doom album confirmed for 2017. The long wait is now over. I can sleep soundly at night knowing they are going to deliver.

I wasn't really happy for any particular reason this morning when I opened this thread, but I sure am now! Hell yeah Impending Doom! Also, new Demon Hunter coming next year!

I just absolutely destroyed a midterm for multivariable calculus. Finished with plenty of time to spare, best I've ever felt about a test. Got drunk af in celebration. Overall a good Tuesday

I feel you here, I'm a good student, but still get pretty bad test anxiety. When I know I knocked one out of the park I always leave the parking lot laughing like I just got away with murder. It's a genuine adrenaline rush for me as goofy as that sounds.

I'm happy now because people are in my house putting in new floors, something my wife has been bothering me about getting done fore the last 4 years...

I found out earlier today that I've been awarded a nomination to USAFA. Long process ahead before I get appointed, but it's a HUGE hurdle, to have cleared.

Bought Native-Instrument Komplete Select for myself as a x-mas present. Looks like I'm set for next year when it comes to music software.

Just had a wonderful Christmas dinner with my wife and both of our family's (we celebrate on the 24th). Saw some friends as well and all in just had a really good day.

Been working like a dog and actually got a good bonus so I could justify picking up this beauty!

I've always wanted a German Warwick with a full Wenge Neck, and a giant bucker ala EBMM stingray. I love the highly figured top and swamp ash back too. She's a beauty hard to believe this is a 1998 considering the condition.

Just enjoying some chill time at home with the guitars for tonight, but I've got some fun plans with some friends for New Year's Eve involving sledding, barbecuing and jamming out, so I'm happy.

I've really started to make my rounds on the emotions threads, so this will be the last stop on those. I think instead of being pissed off and resentful towards people for not being able to form a true connection, friendship wise, and blaming myself for it, I'm going to use this time to work on myself and finish what I was working on (I'm writing a psychological horror novel).

 

[BrailleDecibel]

I can't really put my finger on exactly what is making me so happy today, but I am happy...just seems like 2017 is off to a damn good start for me already, and that things are going really well for me...just having a good day all in all, I guess. After some of the horrid things I had to deal with last year, this is a refreshing change of pace.


EDIT: I was being a bit too vague here...if you guys wanna know the real reason I am happy, hop on over to the L&R thread, yo!

It's almost breakfast time

Because at some point in the next couple of weeks, this bad boy will be arriving at my doorstep.

Today, I have reached the mark of 3 months without a single drop of alcohol, which was my goal.

Get it dude!!!! I would say a full 2 years here, but I had a couple slip-ups along the way...but either way, congrats bro.

Finally finished (potentially) the tracking for a split CD we're doing - going to give it some time to let what we've got sink in, but if there's nothing to fix then we're done tracking on our side.

Gonna have some guest vocalists join in remotely, but I don't have to track that, I just have to sit back and wait for them to send tracks back, so I'm not counting that.

I've completed my first full marathon. It was not as bad as I thought it'd be, though miles 17-22 were very grueling. Several times I wanted to drop out especially after 20, but I didn't. I soon realized I only had about a 5k left so I dug deep and pushed it out to the end. I can definitely understand now why some people break down at the finish line, such an incredible feeling and takes everything you have to get there... It was a great experience in hind sight and I'm definitely gonna train for another one later this year.

I am happy because losing weight has vastly improved my quality of life...I feel like a new man!

Old me, 70 lbs heavier than now:

And me today:
