Hello fellow Escapists.

This thread is to share with the world the last piece of good news you got. Whether that be personal, professional or sarcastic, whatever, it's all good.

Personally, I've just been nominated for best student journalism print article in Australia.

From a friend. "Soundwave this year features Lamb Of God, In Flames, Devildriver, Within Temptation and others. Oh, and I'm getting you tickets."

I almost passed out, in all honesty. It was... an awesome feeling. I've only wanted to see these bands for years. And they will be awesome pits. AWESOME!

And congrats on your nomination.

I really do hope you ended your nominated piece that way. Nice work regardless.

School holidays began and I'm going to see the Living End tomorrow. Did someone say intangibly fatteningly awesome? I thought they did.

Some people get all the luck! To think that a friend got you that ticket. Awesome.


Even though this was a couple of days ago I got a letter saying I have a degree which is nice. My cousin called on the same day to congratulate me and tell me that for my Birthday just gone I have tickets to Unholy Alliance (Slayer, Trivium, Mastodon, Amon Armath)

Hey Joe: Thats an awesome achievement. The cousin I mentioned had just got a degree in Journalism and has been telling me how tough it is to break into that market. Best of luck with that.

The last piece of good news I received would be that I got an "A" in history for the term. And I get two weeks holiday starting today.

Kinda pales to everyone else.

Good news, everyone! I'm using a stale Futurama quote in order to make you laugh/irritate you!

Last bit of good news I received was that I would be getting Fable 2. Other than that, nothing much. It's a grey little world that some of us gamers live in. Or perhaps a blue house. With a blue little window. And a blue corvette. And everything is blue for him and himself and...

Alright, I'll stop.

Dabadee dabadie.

For me, it was hearing that Powerglove and Turisas are playing with Dragonforce next month here in Orlando, and that I had the day off. Love it.

congrats everyone on all your good news! I could certainly use some, I got tennis elbow on Wednesday, and woke up today with the flu. Plus I have to make a 20 minute presentation on Thursday.

Let's see... I wrote a meta-poem that my creative writing professor thoroughly enjoyed?

Haha! I totally did the same thing!

And to stay on topic: I just had a successful surgery on my intestines that will stop the recent random bleeding coming out my backside!

Something tells me I've shared a bit much...
Whatever! I get to eat a ton of jell-o!

Last piece of good news I've heard... It has to be when I got accepted to college with a $10000 scholarship... That was last year though.
