The Happy News

~pronouncedyou:iconpronouncedyou: reports, October 10, 2007
In a response to my journal, over 40 people have came and told me what makes them happy. I hope that the things that make them happy make you happy too, because there's plenty of wonderful things in here. It's extremely long but I urge you to look through it!
(Please note that I couldn't include everything that everyone suggested.. that would've taken way too long. Sorry!)

:damphyr:Animals

A lot of people have stated how happy animals make them. And who can blame them?
Cute Overload is the place to be when it comes to sweet animals!

And for here on deviantart:
Cats




*kinkei shared a photograph of her kitten with us. It's the first deviation in this section. Thanks *kinkei; precious!

Dogs




~Looped loves this kind of dog.

Bunnies



~lamagamorgana shares this website with us- it's dedicated to bunnies!

Birds



Both ~SailingBreezes and ~RainyDayMan stated their love for birds, respectively. ~SailingBreezes claimed that she loves barn owls, or any cute owls. ^^ ~RainyDayMan told me that he loves all types of birds.

~RainyDayMan submitted these pictures that he thoroughly enjoys:


*fishtankbabe also shared a picture of her bird with us:

~Ashinros shared this picture of a seal with us. How cute!

Underwater
My friend ~shun-hime tells me that sea creatures make her happy. I know I love going to the aquarium! The ocean is full of beautiful and mysterious creatures.


~thefuriouspanda loves squirrels and taking pictures of them. Check out her gallery.

:damphyr:Nature

A lot of deviants also stated how nature makes them happy. I agree completely! It's a wonderful feeling to connect with nature.

Sky



~sayuki-dawn tells me that the sky makes her happy. "Looking at the sky. The sky looks pretty 99% of the time."

Weather



~RainyDayMan does his name justice in loving rainy days. ~Rainbowbubbles wrote that, "Sleeping in on a cool, rainy Sunday morning." makes her happy.
I don't blame her! Sleeping in when it's raining is quite soothing. She even drew a picture to share with us:


Woods




=Rahxy writes, "Evenings by the riverbank. CATCHING fireflies in mason jars. watching the clouds. playing in the woods as a kid "

~otherw0rld comments, "I love to get out of the house, going for a walk on a 'forest' near me and smell the flowers, see the sunset, it's just so peacefull, so beautifull, or get in the car and drive to the beach, sit on the sand and start reading a book!"]

Also, my good friend =Giver likes trees.

Ocean


~inky151, ~otherw0rld and I all agree about how awesome the ocean and beach is.

Water
~transparent-color submitted these lovely photos to share with us:


:damphyr:People
"when people appreciate what i do for them"
-*itskiwisosmile

Among all of the comments I recieved, one of the most common answers to "What makes you happy?" was friends.

Here are 3 photos to start off our people section:


Friends

"They were mimicking the crosswalk guy, but then one of my friends was like "doesnt it look like that beetles thing?" and now its lost its meaning -laugh- but its still a good shot and I love them <3" -*BleedingSmile

<img src="http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa176/zweilove/8e6118c699ab63bf0b81235c789aafd9-1.png">
~tii-kun drew a doodle of his friends.

~Ashinros says hello to his friends on dA: ~breakingmark, ~Seiken-jiyuu, *Celestrial-Temptress, ~Raziel2431, *Devas, ~Haydie, *Divine-Star, =Lazeros, and ~anuvia.

~Reversed-Pocky is happy when she's with her friend ~Cinnamon-roll2

~ThuhJesheekuh writes, "Well, when my friends are happy, I'm happy usually. So, if they're down, it usually stresses me out. I'm most happy when I'm with them, doing something cool or just hanging out and being insane."

~renakino tells me, "what makes me smile...*other people smiling and laughs*"

A lot of people have agreed that when other people are happy, they are happy too. Also when people they love are safe:

"happiness is when everyone i know is happy n safe..." -~sweetbabykit



~summergirl789 loves to hang out with her friends ~dragonwolf75 and ~aneishikaku.

My friend, ~dragn9 is quoted saying, "...my friends and their weirdness.." is what makes him happy. Haha, I think we all have some weird friends.

"Friends, or I should say school friends. Since my school is like 1 hr away from my house I don't get to hang out with them, mostly at school."
-~dark-maggot




Significant Others
Another common answer was, "boyfriends" in response to what makes people happy. I can totally agree on this. Love is one of those most wonderful things in the world and it can really make you feel like a million bucks.



~tii-kun shares a picture of one he admires:


~thefuriouspanda is also happy because of her boyfriend, and ~sayuki-dawn is happy because of her significant other; as well as ~WistfulSkies and ~sugaredheart.

Family

A response that I recieved, although fewer than some other things, is family. Can't live with them, can't live without them I guess. =)



"Family also makes me happy although my family is of the kind that gets home and goes directly to their rooms. So every meal,etc. is a cherished memory."
-~dark-maggot

~thefuriouspanda and ~sugaredheart also love their families. ~sugaredheart loves her grandma's applesauce.


:damphyr:Learning and Culture

"What really makes me happy is accomplishing a goal that I've worked really hard for."-*AstralDaamon

A lot of people might find this suprising, but a common answer to "What makes you happy?" was either 'school' or 'learning something new'. Of course, I think a lot of people found that not having homework made them happy moreso.



"Also, solving a particularly difficult integral or other such math problem is intensely satisfying."-~ThuhJesheekuh

"I'm hoping to learn Korean one day, and then if I'm willing enough maybe even Mandarin....I like learning new things... and then talking about the things I learned.."
-~Niceshoopuf who also says, "I like learning about how things work... Like our bodies or a car..."



Plenty of people expressed an interest in Japan; particularly the culture! Especially film and cute things!

"I religously drink Ramune! :XD: and I love Gackt~! :heart: I saw S.K.I.N. premiere at Anime Expo, I was so happy :D " -~Ashinros

<img src="http://www.qi.com/images/Panel_5.jpg">
My friend Mary, (*acrylicana) loves British panel quiz shows.

Reading was also on top of peoples lists for making them happy:

"Reading, too. [Read Stephenie Meyer's books, anyone!? 8D]" -~sayuki-dawn



"My German and science class makes me happy," -~Reversed-Pocky

*KattyKinns alos loves cupcakes.




:damphyr:ART

Well, I think this is pretty obvious. Almost every single person claimed to love art! Whether creating it or just looking at it, art makes people very happy. So I went through a lot of people who's commented gallery or favorites and selected one piece from either.
