Are you getting a new pet?
Do you own a new car?
Did you hook up with someone?

All of these questions mean only one thing: happiness.

I created this thread because I want to share, and give you a chance to share, happy news! So here's mine:

I have made up my mind that I will take an Introduction to Cinema class at my university at an unknown time before I graduate from there.

What's yours?

    That is a great idea; I took plenty such classes when I was younger an they introduced me to corners of cinema that would have taken me decades to discover on my own.

    Oh really? I'd like to hear more about that.

    Ooh, you must be so excited Barry! Good for you.

    PS: Of course it counts. In my opening post, this falls under the 'Did you hook up with someone' category. ;)

    For the cinema trip, or for being in Bond 25?

    For seeing 2001 on a big screen in a restored edition.

    No, no, no. It's Unrestored. Which means, I'm assuming, that it was the way audiences saw it back in 1968.

    I'm about to publish my second novel in three weeks. Self-publish, actually, so it's not that great an accomplishment but the fact I finished writing it is still a satisfaction.

    Hey, @NicNac, thanks for your interest! I really appreciate it!

    It's a coming of age fantasy trilogy about a 18 year old boy called Alexander who's having a troubled life because he can't get along with his peers or his parents and school constatly stresses him out. Alexander is an avid reader and often uses books as a way to escape his trying life (and, because the main character is heavily based on me, he's a huge Bond fan). One day Alexander stumbles upon a magic book which transports him in a world where all literary characters and finds out that this magical place may hold the key to solve his misfortunes.

    It's coming out in Italian but I'm going to translate it in English and have a native editor proofread it, so I'll let you know when the English translation is available :D
