* Just Wanna Be Happy *

Advantages: Voice , Lyrics
Disadvantages: None!

...Leona Lewis is back on the scene! With a new change of image , the winner of the 2006 X Factor has returned with a cracking new single! Happy is the seventh single from Leona Lewis and will be released in the United Kingdom on 8th November 2009. This single will also be her latest album , Echo's worlwide lead single. This song was written by Ryan Tedder , Evan 'Kidd' Bogart and Leona. Four minutes and two seconds long , this song comes under the Pop and R&B genres. Happy is a beautiful ballad taken from the album Echo. The first verse starts off the song quietly which shows some sort vulnerability and as the verse progresses , the dramatic chorus and it's strong beat takes over which allows the song to through out some attitude. Leona's voice is as always incredible ; each note is delivered pitch perfect and each word is...

Review of Happy - Leona Lewis

If you want to be happy read this book

Advantages: Easy to read and really useful
Disadvantages: I must read it again as a reminder!

...I am really interested in self-help books and have quite a collection. This one is definitely one of the best that I have read! I usually buy this type of book and use it to dip into now and again as I feel the need as they can sometimes be heavy going to read in the way that one would read a novel. This one was quite different. I bought it to look at during a long train journey and I just read it easily from cover to cover. It contains good common sense advice written in the sort of style that it is an interesting read. There are also humorous quotes and cartoons throughout the book too. At then end of each section there is a paragraph entitled ‘in a nutshell’ which serves to remind you in just a few words what you have just learned about yourself. The first chapter is entitled Patterns and urges you to look...

Review of Being Happy - Andrew Matthews

How To Take The First Step To Happiness

Advantages: Clearly explained, good starting point, interesting facts, good advice
Disadvantages: Very vague, most of it is plain commonsense, not enough input from Slough volunteers

...This book is the accompaniment to the BBC television series Making Slough Happy, which I didn?t watch, where in May 2005 a group of 6 happiness experts embarked on a 3 month project to make the residents of Slough happier. Slough was chosen because it has a diverse population (various ages, cultural backgrounds, etc.) and among the lowest unemployment rate in the country, which minimized the one huge factor that affects happiness and cannot be easily sorted out in a few months. The author, Liz Hoggard is a freelance writer and broadcaster rather than an expert on happiness, but this does have the advantage of her making the book extremely easy to understand with no psychological jargon. The 6 happiness experts as are follows: Richard Stevens ? a psychologist who is chair of the social psychology course for the Open University...

Review of How To Be Happy - Liz Hoggard

You'll be Happy at the Happy Castle.

Advantages: Reasonable prices, reasonable food.
Disadvantages: May be busy when Parties are on or on wet days

...I was first made aware of the Happy Castle in Penicuik when reading my old faithful Edinburgh for under 5's book. Then when chatting to someone on Ciao they had visited it while visiting someone nearby. It wasn't until just recently we visited it for the first time and it was extremely busy that we were put off it. But having visited a few more times when it has been less busy, it's starting to warm in my heart a little as it suits both my children. I also have a bad habit of wanting to call it the Happy Palace which confuses people as it is the name of a Chinese take away along the road. To get to the Happy Castle you do need to be on the ball a bit as the signs are few and far between. Coming from Edinburgh, I drive past IKEA towards Penicuik and then all the way through Penicuik. When you reach the town hall on the left hand side...

Review of Happy Castle, Penicuik

Don't worry, be happy

Advantages: Not overpowering, everyday fragrance
Disadvantages: Doesn't last into the night...

...yet more of my hard earned cash! The bottle has the Clinique Happy logo printed at the top near the lid so if, like me, you chuck out the boxes you will still have a vague idea what you might be smelling of! The silver lid clicks on and off in a very satisfying manner, and fits well enough to avoid a nasty accident in transit... **THE FRAGRANCE** Enough of the packaging.. I think you get the idea and you can always look at the pics provided! On to the important part... how does it smell? Now I avoid the strong smelling heavy floral fragrances like the plague, it just doesnt suit me, so this isnt one of those. It is a very light smell, a cross between citrus and floral. The people at clinique say its 'A chic, modern, multi-layered sparkling floral.' It includes Ruby Red Grapefruit, Boysenberry Bush Flower, and Hawaiian...

Time to be Happy

Advantages: Lots, they make me happy
Disadvantages: none at all

...I haven't done a review in a while so I thought that I would try to get back into the swing of it by doing this one as it looks quite fun. So here we go then, 10 things that make me happy. In no particular order. Getting a new car. There's nothing quite like getting a brand spanking new car, and I was fortunate enough this year to get one. Firstly the fun starts looking around at the model and make you have had your heart set on and making sure you can afford it. Even ordering is part of the fun and waiting for that date to get your new car. It even helps if you can do part exchange on your old car to make things easier. When the date comes and you see your new car it's just a great experience. The first sit in your new drivers seat and seeing all the new controls and mod cons. My new Toyota looked like the Tardis...

Smile be happy

Advantages: being happy
Disadvantages: always something that can cheer you up

...I have written an op about the 10 most annoying things so I thought it would be good to follow it up with 10 things that make me happy!! So here is my top 10 in no particular order. 1. CHOCOLATE- often referred to as the happy hormone!! Well I agree. Sometimes I can think of nothing better than sitting down on the sofa watching a girlie film with a box of chocolates!! I love it!! Brilliant when you have an argument with someone to just stuff your face with chocolate! or if you have split up with your boyfriend/girlfriend. However sometimes to much isn?t always good... 2. FRIENDS-I think being around friends having a laugh is when people are most happy!! Friends are often taken for granted, but they are really the closest people to you most of the time, just think what we would do without them?? I would be bored, I would never...

Tis An Art To Being Happy Doncha Think

Advantages: You Smile
Disadvantages: Hurts my Face

...Tis an Art to being Happy???. I sat down to write this when I suddenly realised what a miserable old fart I am. Not that much makes me happy to be honest. Ok I jest as always, now sit back put yer feet up and read on??. Numero One................ I enjoy more than anything making someone laugh, there really is nothing in life that comes close to it. Well maybe a romp in bed with Angelina Jolie wud surpass it and if you are reading this Ang you can even drink my blood after it. Tis a strange girl that but I am drifting off topic or maybe I am just drifting on the edge of sanity. But a smile or a comment like one on my last review that said "I was a bit down until I read that review". Now is that something to make you happy, beats money any day. "Oh please Art you are taking the piss, you would rather they slipped you...

Be happy, be stacky, be Tomy.

Advantages: Strong, durable, colourful.
Disadvantages: None.

...Tomy Happy Stack. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yet another great toy by tomy. What is the tomy happy stack. Now im sure you all know what a toy stack is, however the tomy happy stack is slightly different from the one I used to play with. The one I used to have was a platform with a pole in the middle and you used to place the different size rings on top of each other. However the tomy happy stack these days consists of a purple base, a blue and white ball with a happy face and 5 stacking rings that dont have holes in them, on the underside of the ring is a hollow ball shape hole and on the top is a ball, see my pictures if you dont understand what im talking about. The rings are all different colours, turquoise, green, yellow, orange and pink and all have...

Review of Tomy Happy Stack

For a happy walk!

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...My 2 year old setter is still a work in progress as far as training goes. We have done the rounds of puppy and dog training and have the certificates to prove it! However he is still not reliable at coming back when called. Having a tasty treat in my pocket certainly helps to persuade him to return to me, his so called pack leader! In Tesco recently I spotted a plastic container of Bakers happy walks on sale. As they were on offer for under £1 I decided to buy a box. Bakers happy walks come in a white plastic flip top container. They are the perfect size to fit in a pocket. On pulling back the foil seal I was struck by the very strong smell! It wasn?t unpleasant just a very powerful meaty smell, the kind my dog loves! Each treat looks like a very small roll about the size of a cigarette stub. Inside the roll is a darker layer of meat...
