Violently Happy
[ 17 January 2009 ]
I know we’ve done this before, but last time it was so great I almost exploded!

Post a photo of yourself looking REALLY, deliriously happy in the comments!
Definitely a good way to round off the weekend. I love this!
Love letters & feather headdresses,

My dear friend and I several years ago. We look hideous because we were laughing uncontrollably. :D
I don’t usually smile in pictures, so this was hard!

I’m kind of a creep. In my free time, I mean.
Yes, this is from long ago, but I am never happier than when I am with my brother :-D

Nothing better then being with the cutest boy you know and fake mustaches!
#22 sounds like Hunter S. Thompson describing an encounter with a bar full of loose women.
“It’s like I was in an aviary full of parakeets, all hungry for my seed stick.”

A very old photo, but I can’t find my camera. So here’s a pic of me at my senior prom two years ago, looking violently happy (I’m the chick in the middle, the only one looking at the camera):

I actually don’t like taking pictures of me smiling… This one is old and I used to hate it.. But I’m trying to change now, and I’m starting to enjoy everything I do, and most of all, accept myself. So I’m going to start taking pictures of me being happy and enjoying myself more often…
Thank you Gala!

My friend Kaelynn and I dressed as some sort of charmed marie-antoinette-ballerina-film-star-girl-scout characters. i was mock-DJing at my partner paul’s birthday party. i think we had been dancing to “we tigers” by animal collective, and i literally fell down onto our bay window.
what a cool moment!
I’m always happy when I’m being silly:

I think this was last week. I was in my room with two friends, being super-girly and trying on clothes. Minutes later we were leaping around in the snow having a photo shoot. Totally unflattering picture, but I think it captures the pure joy of the moment:)

This photo was taken in September 2007 when my boyfriend decided to do a bikini photoshoot with me. Anyway, I had been laying down in the sand and he told me to get up slowly not to move the sand much from my stomach. He said when he was shooting me “If you brush that sand off, I will kill you!”
It made me laugh really hard.
this is not the most flattering photo of me, but i was so deliriously happy that i felt it necessary to toss my tin-foil science helmet/hat-thing into the air. this was taken this past september for my space-themed birthday party. meanwhile, my boyfriend looks on.
whee!

I LOVE seeing everyone so happy. It’s nice to put some faces to fellow icing readers!
I was trying to find something where I was open-mouth, un-flatteringly happy, but this really was one of the BEST moments of 2008:

We spent my 25th birthday in DISNEYLAND and me and my Fiance wore our mouse ears everywhere. I love my ears so much! I was a 50’s mousketeer with them for halloween this year, complete with fake nose freckles!
This was taken on the Alice in Wonderland teacups ride, and is candy coloured, and blurry:
