    Defining happiness objectively is a little difficult so I'll just leave it up to the people to pick the options that they feel fits. I'm just curious to see what sort of responses we get XD

    Somewhat happy. Room for improvement in several areas, but nothing that bothers me.

    If anything, I sometimes think that I should be more bothered about one or two of the said things that doesn't bother me. Not enough for it to really bother me, though...

    I'm more than content with my life. I have a solid list of friends I can count on and they can count on me. My family life with my mom and brothes is a lot better than it used to be and that is a very great factor. The weather in San Francisco is generally nice although it gets a bit foggy at times but the sunshine far outweighs it. I keep progressing towards a better future in life so that makes me happ to be able to focus on my goals. And I'm getting married htis coming August, so that only ups the ante to new levels.

    But don't the minor nitpicks seem really minor when you take the whole of your life in its totality? Mine do, thus me extreme happy. :)

    I'm not really happy at the moment, lots of stuff not working out the way I'd like. Not unhappy either, just kinda impatient for some stuff to happen and sometimes fed up with fighting/waiting and certain people throwing stones in my way at work (jealousy, coffy-table politics and such). Also lacking a worthy woman at the moment, been meeting only really stupid cunts in the last 2 years. There are soooo few emotionaly healthy women out there, really sad.

    But still, that could qualify as minor stuff, I'm healthy, alive and well and also not doing that bad financially, so I guess all is fine.

    Some people aren't happy unless they have something to hate. :lol:

    Tho that was a general observation rather than aimed at current company. :grin:

    It fits me rather well though. :lol:

    I've found two simple rules that make life much easier to cope with:

    Simple as that. :yep2:

    Happiness like any emotion comes and goes. I have found reasonable contentment within my life although there are still troublesome issues that I need focus on. In the end Im more grateful than happy and/or sad.

    LOL
    For some reason the whole concept of "How happy am I" seems somewhat foreign. I dont believe I have ever wondered how I would rank on a scale of happiness let alone compare this to others.

    I'm not too happy. I'm so deep in the ghetto hole it ain't funny. But I try to keep my spirits up with my hobbies.

    If Alstrong posted a pic of a graph on polar coordinates it would mean he has bi-polar. :lol:

    This must be very disappointing news for your new girlfriend.


    Re: Poll.

    My mood is bleak. I'm looking for a new job and will miss my current workmates.
    Goodbye is my least favourite word in the English language.

    Yeah, I used to describe my life like that, until I stopped caring and it didn't bother me anymore. :)

    I also used to hate myself until I came over responsibility and self-discipline. :D

    I would say I can cope with problems and handle life better than a lot of other people, but I'm not happy since I haven't gone anywhere with my life yet.
