Today i had a very good, i got to do so much related to my SI (special interest) and i ran and jumped and flapped because i was so happy. My parents rarely see me like this and i was wondering if it like things for others.
The rest of the day i acted more typically autistic because i was happy, do others also do this?

Definitely others...including me. I flap my hands the most. Occasionally I jump too and make a high-pitched scream.

Lol yeah this happens to me, if i see sonic or a hedgehog on TV i scream "HEDGEHOG HEDGEHOG HEDGEHOG!" And sometimes cry from happiness.

Id say i seem inappropriately happy and excited but not autistic, i always seem autistic because my autism appears in my behaviour everyday.

When I'm excited, I often jump and make this moaning type sound, and people have told me about it, so I try to suppress it in public. I'm not sure how "autistic" that seems, though.
