So happy

I got so happy when I was in the North, but I missed my friends very much.


1. What's wrong with "so happy" here? I see nothing. One colleague of mine believes that "so happy" would only be correct if we have THAT clause.

2. Do you think "get" here means "become"?


Thank you.

Mr genuine 1. What's wrong with "so happy" here? There's nothing wrong with "so happy" in your sentence, but I would prefer the more natural "was so happy" or "felt so happy" in that context.
