Success Happy

How should I make a happiness machine?

I need to create a Happiness Machine for school like the one in the book Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury. It has to have a switch or a compartment or something that classifies it as a machine. It can't be too big because I have to transport it to and from school. Also, I'm just looking for ideas, I won't take your suggestions word for word.

1. I think its sad, to begin with, that schools are trying to associate ones happiness with some deterministic machine. That is the menatlity in our society that we have no free will, that choice is irrelevant, that decisions are irrelevant, that habits and lifestyles shouldnt have to change, that the cure all is a quick and easy pharmaceutical to effortly end all emotional dispair. We have traded in philosophy for science, psychology for psychiatry, therapy and reason for drugs and medicine. Instead of facing fears and reasoning through your issues with the help of an aid, we are merely masking our symptoms and allowed to function, loosely function. We have traded in the soul for a meaningless deterministic physical world.
2. Challenge your school and say true happiness can't be achieved from a machine. If you say like a hug-machine, it's no where near the same as receiving a hug from a human. If you have to make one, you'll have to make something that offers not true happines, but fake. This is happiness humans experience from material gain. So you'd have to create something like a pie-making machine, a bl0w-job machine, a machine that transcripes your audio into writing and prints it off, etc.
3. Purchase all the required parts for making the machine. Assemble them. The parts are (1) Smile, (2) Goodwill, (3) Kindness, (4) Compassion, (5) Help, (6) taking interests in others welfare and prosperity, (7) showing concern for suffering lot, (8) taking care of orphans and destitute. You may also require bolts and nuts like (1) love, (2) affection, (3) sympathy, etc. Now it is easy to assemble the machine that you require and make everybody happy.
4. drink all the rum first... then go and jot down some ideas!!
5. With a combination of psionics, telepathy and other modern technology, it should be possible to construct such a device. The Magnetron will do most of the work, but combined with the awesome power of the manufactured tornado in the plans shown below you can both successfully resonate the wanted effect, as well as draw attention to it's existence by the psychological affect the tornado causes. And by using the Radionics Machine, you can control the output affect to help determine best results. Of course, to maximize effect, issue a round of jack for everyone and open up a nitrous oxide canister. One last thing, in the book, I think the actual machine brought misery instead, so either way -you win.

6. A hydraulic pump connected to syringes and some happy chemicals.
7. Change the catastrophic machine you think you are?
