Be a part of my art!?

Hi, i've recently started my first year at Loughborough University school of the Arts and i'm about to begin my first project. My intentions for this semester's work are to bring an element of happiness, positivity and light heartedness into the subject of misfortune. I understand that you may not wish to share personal experiences, but in order to make a start with this theme i would really appreciate some stories about aspects of your life which you deem to be unfortunate. (They don't have to be life changing experiences) Anything at all would be a huge help. I plan on making 'positive vibe' art work inspired by these stories in order to make the situation easier to accept. I will be more than happy to email photographs of the final product to anyone who submits a story. Thankyou!
