Coming to the end of the 22nd year since 1984
Well peoples, its that time of year again… New Years Eve. Whilst I usually love celebrations fireworks, I always seem to find myself at lame locations, or hanging out with people that I don’t want to hang out with. Reviewing my last few NYE’s, at the beginning of… I was:
- 2006: Walking around Southbank, Brisbane, calling up whoever would pick up on my phone to talk to, in order to get away from my family, but more importantly the people that were hanging out with our family. The infamous family friends.
- 2005: This was actually an alright one, I was at a girlfriend’s house, just chilling with friends from cadets and school. We ended the night by playing Manopoly on her gamecube
- 2004: I think that I was at an Aunties house, and was bored out of my brains, so I went to bed at around 10 pm, cos I wasn’t going to bore myself silly waiting to see fireworks on tv. The people running up and down the street at midnight really made me cheerful as they yelled out to all and sundry how happy their new years was. *grumble*
And thats about as much as I can remember at the moment, but NYE can be such a cool event, but it can also be the suckiest one around. Brisbanites have about 6hrs left of 2006 at the moment, and I’m wondering how my NYE is going to be. I’m driving a friend’s car at the moment, cos mine is at her place while I play chauffer for her this weekend. This is fine with me, but it also narrows down what I can do this weekend.
So I suppose there will be a follow up blog on how my night went… but I’m not holdingm y breath in anticipation, cos i think its going to turn out pretty shite…
However that does not mean to say that I don’t with all and sundry a Happy New Year!!!

I think New Years eve is for people with boyfriends or large groups of rowdy friends. This year I am by myself in a country where I don’t know anyone but my boyfriend and he is at this moment away. I could go out and watch fireworks but I don’t want to stand in the cold with couples who are all happy. I know I’m a grump!

No dude, I TOTALLY understand. As a single person, I get all Ebenezer Scrooge (yes, I do mental “bar-humbug’s”) at around midnight, ESPECIALLY if I’m watching TV, cos I get to see all the happy-happy couples out there making out at the stroke of midnight.
*grumble*
anyhow, i’ll tell ya’ll about my new year with my new post.
