Off-topic: Happy things

[Adrishiana]

Yay for Hexr! Seriously, don't feel bad for forgetting XD (Although, happy birthday to your brother!), and congratulations :3

Today is my birthday! 27 doesn't really mean much, except for that I am now prime

What? 27 is not prime. Its prime factorisation is 3·3·3.

However, at approximately 2am, I received the following text message from a classmate I have been crushing on for last half a year (it's probly tl;dr. Sorry about that):
Since everyone says we should live our lives to the fullest,
you never know when you die and since I have already had an awful week
I thought it can't go worse no matter what happens.
I really like you.
You're one of the most awesome people I've met
and had a great time hanging out and talking with you -
I've had a crush on you for a long time
but thanks to me being damn too shy and way too careful
I havent' had the courage to say this face to face.

The rest is irrelevant. Needless to say, I've been smiling, getting teary-eyed (but MOST DEFINITELY not crying) and screaming out loud of pure happiness because of this.
I've also pretty much solved my religious crisis, but since I don't want to turn this a)thread or b)forum to a religious debate, I won't go into any kind of detail.

*SQUEE*
You people make me do that a lot. X3

As for the religious crisis thing, I'm happy for you, whatever your end result was. I was raised Catholic and tried to hold onto it, despite never really believing in it, until around seventeen-ish when I finally accepted how I felt. It's very relieving to finally have that figured out.

Obviously, that's not to say that religious people are wrong. So, again, whatever resolution you came to, congratulations on figuring it out. <3

It's a prime power?

Yay Hexr! That is such an amazing text message for you to get. I'm all smiles on your behalf.

Also, congrats on sorting out the personal religious crisis!

Hey, way to go, Hexr! Hope that you two have a great first date. Hope you enjoy your trip, too. And I think I remember some of the crisis you're referring to - glad you got that sorted out. (If I'm recalling wrong, my deepest apologies ((and embarrassment... ) that I misunderstood. ))

My happiness for the day:
- I'm feeling a tad less emotionally "raw", today. Always a nice feeling. Makes me feel more like myself.
- Only have two items left for the week for my data class, and those don't have to be turned in until Thursday (yay for more days to do things!)
- It's a nice day out, and I made it to services just fine (If a tad late, thanks to the police waking me up at 3 A.M. to find out who owned this car that was rather illegally parked between our house and the one just to the west. x.x)
- This is a silly thing, but looking over some of my old gaming magazines (in search of cool images/stuff to keep for scanning), I'm quite amused at how I was unable to tell as a kid: "It's all a big advertisement paid for by multiple companies! Even the reviews are obviously paid for, look at those scores!" I can only come to the conclusion that wow I was a gullible kid.

Lil' late, but congrats to Hexr! Don't do anything I wouldn't do!*

And if you do, name it after me. Skinflint Tightwad Hexr.

Yesterday, I went to my five-year-old nephew's birthday party. When I got there, my four-year-old autistic niece (we're not sure where she is on the spectrum yet) had an MLP figurine that was holding a small, plastic birthday cake. She proudly showed this to us and proclaimed, "WOOK! WE GOT CAAAAKE!" She kept this up for at least five-to-ten minutes, including running up to each person in the kitchen, showing them the figurine, and informing them about the cake and how we have it and they should "wook." Then, once she ran out of people in the kitchen, she moved on to the people in the living room.

Needless to say, this was ridiculously adorable and I could not stop laughing.

Also, my dad's present to my nephew was a remote-controlled tarantula. My nephew loves it. My sister hates it. Mission accomplished, Dad!

This is the most adorable. And the fact that she decided to share this Cake Revelation with other people, without being prompted to do so, is especially good coming from an autistic child.

In a similar vein, this weekend I watched my autistic brother (aged 13) perform a glockenspiel piece for the rest of the family. He's been taking percussion lessons after school recently, and it's obvious he really enjoys them. He just had a look of pure delight on his face while he played, and afterwards he was so proud of himself for having got the piece right.

Hehe, cake revelation.

That's awesome! I'm happy for him. <3

OMIGOSH Hexr I'm so happy for you, on both counts of good news! Please imagine I'm a Captain LeBubbles cartoon going YAY and hugging you and like that. ♥

You rang?



I think I mentioned this before, but I tend to picture people as their icons, which is why you both look like Lisa cosplayers.

Hooray! More Captain LeBubbles cuteness!!! This always makes me happy.

Actually, I frequently cosplay as my icon, so the one you did of us hugging could be accurate.
