There are some pretty depressing things on this board lately, so why not have a happy thread?

I'll go first-

Literally just found out I got 26 on the ACT, and a 33 on the reading portion.

Our girls basketball team won a regional championship for the first time ever.

I think I nailed an audition earlier today.



got anything you'd like to share?

What was the audition?

It was for a show called "Happily Ever Once Upon" for high schoolers at the local community theater.

I do not know the show! 26 is a good score! Congrats!

Thanks. Part of me made this thread to brag, and the other part was so others could brag. Ha.

I'm a little overwhelmed with work and school right now, so I don't have three things to share, but... I'm going to the Project Runway finale show in Bryant Park!

A few things:

- I got back in contact with someone whom I thought I had lost contact with.

- There's a good chance I'm going on a date Friday night. Finally, I meet a guy who's into theatre (and straight!)

Wow. That describes half of my dream guy PM.

[Perfectly Marvelous]

Aw.

I should also mention that he's incredibly sweet, kind, and gives off a lot of positive energy. It's weird because I thought guys like that just didn't exist. Oh, and he's cute too!

I agree, this board needs a thread like this!

Yesterday I talked to a family member I hadn't spoken to in a long time and an injury from the other day began to feel much better.

PM, he sounds dreamy.

I got into college!!! Catholic University of America in DC for vocal performance!!!!!

Except I'm not Catholic, and I'm kind of afraid it will be full of republicans. BUT, the music department is really good, and it would be fun to be in DC!!!

1)I'm preggers!

2)I'm aborting.

3)I finally beat that homicide rap that's been dogging me for years.

omg! that's sooooo great to hear, taz. i was praying for you to beat the, uh, rap becuse i knew it really bothered you. praise jesus!

you know, abortions are good luck in some cultures. you're off to such a day!!

[tazber]

Posted: 2/19/09 at 10:35am

I always knew I'd beat the rap b/c it was just an illegal immigrant I offed.
But all the schlepping into court can get to be so tiresome.

I peed on the carpet, decided I didnt like pea soup anymore, learned a new trick with my crucifix and threw an armoir at my mom...I ALMOST got my head to go all the way around...cross your fingers everyone!

Taz is that for real?

How can it be a crime to kill an illegal immigrant? They aren't even supposed to be here. I didn't think they were supposed to have rights until they got their green card or whatever.

joe, this is the good news thread. you are cluttering it with your questions. now do you have some good news? if not, i demand that you congratulate someone or leave!

[Unknown User]

Posted: 2/19/09 at 10:56am

Taz, congrats on your abortion and acquittal!

[tazber]

Posted: 2/19/09 at 10:57am

Well you know lawyers* joe. They want to make a case out of everything.
If I'd have killed, say, a deer for example, it would just be called hunting.
Go figure.

*no offense brdlwyr.
