Durham University Happiness Society

We try to make or keep people happy and make Durham a happy environment to be in. We offer entirely unprofessional help though sincere messages, hugs and hot chocolate. We go on adventures and on chocolate cake crawls. Beati in perpetuum.

Please send an e-mail to happiness.society@dur.ac.uk to join.
You can either join A. the Daily Happy E-mail mailing list, or B. choose to only receive one Event and Message update a week to avoid filling your inbox too quickly. It's £1,- a year or £3,- for life membership.

For newcomers: on Friday we send out happy images, on Saturday happy songs, on Sunday our own happy photos/stories/suggestions, on Monday happy quotes, on Tuesday happy philosophy, on Wednesday we try to appreciate our happiness, and on Thursday we just send out some happy humour. This is the archive of all these messages.

Ultimate Chocolate Cake Crawl (December 2011)
Happy Soc meets DUCK Rag Raid (February 2012)


Well folks, there’s only one more day of exams left now! But for those who have been worried about their figure over this stressful period, here’s the newest exercise routine that’s sure to get you ready to hit the beaches!

Thursday, Happy Humour Day

Wednesday, Pursuit of Happiness Day

Well done everyone for pursuing your future happiness, by getting through exams! If you haven’t finished yet, then best of luck, and just think of what these exams will get for you in the future :D

My Pursuit of Happiness tip for today is to always remember that Life is Life, and that happiness is the most important thing in it. What is life if you’re not enjoying it?.. or doing something that you know is for the best, concerning your future and the future of those around you. Enjoy every day by taking pleasure from the little things, and don’t forget that happiness is something that is there as often as you want it, as well as something to work towards. 
Sorry that was a bit deep.. 
it’s true though! :)

Monday, Happy Quote Day

Apologies for the lateness, but here is Monday’s quote:

“Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine” – Anthony J. D’Angelo

Here is proof that you’re never too old for a playground! :)

Saturday, Happy Melody Day

Hello all! Congratulations to those who have finished exams, and a big Keep Calm and Carry on to all those facing one last gasp across the weekend. 

Today’s Happy Image: well, it had to be something sun-related, didn’t it? OK it’s a bit massive but hey ho - the sun’s pretty damn big.

Friday, Happy Image Day
