Selamat Datang, 2007.

Yes,people. That does mean "Welcome,2007" in Malay.

I didn't wanna leave 2006. It was such an eventful year. Eventful doesn't mean all positive; for life's pitfalls are events, too, no? And I'll remember 2006 as the year where so many things happened, transpired, and changed. All for their own wicked reasons.
Acquaintances made, friendships broken. Impulses given in to, intentions not met. Forced into isolation, dropped into glory. Pulled into lust, yanked out of love. And all that. You probably know what I'm driving at so I shall not elaborate.

So tell me how the Countdown was for thee(s). I heard the one in K.L was cancelled and the crowd didn't even know about it. I would have kicked up a storm, I think. Haha. And Thailand -poor dear- had 8 motherfucking bombs exploding, ruining all celebrations. Bombers are such fucked up party poopers. So anyway guys, don't head to Thailand for New Year celebos, the government's cancelling all the shit for years to come.
I saw the ones in HK, UK and Paris on telly. Woah, pretty cool stuff they did. Singapore had 2 major countdowns, with dozens others across the country. And I'm sorry for my citizens who went to the Countdown @ VivoCity. I've heard 5 reliable sources say it sucked hard. And only a few performances were worth the time. Ahh well.

My first hour of 2007 was spent in a drunken stupor. Took a ride around my tiny island with an old Filipino friend who's currently in town, and I got stupidly high on Ruffles and Red Bull. Add all the consumed salts & isotopes with flashing strobe lights and a fireworks display - and you got a Nashty who's too giddy to sit up straight. Had to stop at some random place (I don't even know wtf it was,sorry) so I won't just fly off the pillion's seat. God, I felt like puking my guts out too, coz I hadn't had a proper meal since the morning before. Nice~~

I woke up at my aunt's place and it took a minute before I remembered where I was 5 hours before. And I vaguely remembered sending a couple of text messages to my bud, but I had to ask her if I really did, since part of me thought I dreamt the whole shit up. Geez. I can't remember what I sent, though. Hopefully I made sense.

Proceeded to erase a bunch of contacts from my Nokia's phonebook. Those whose numbers I don't think I need anymore, au revoir. Enough of all the clutter in my lifeline. Unnecessary stuff should really be gone with the wind.

And no resolutions for me. They whittle away to nothingness sometime around my birthday. Lets have random revelations instead. Things I just realised, or never knew before this year.

#1 : The first joke I heard this year was from Ameliene
#2 : The last laugh I had in 2006 was laughing at Karlo
#3 : I can't drink much Red Bull
#4 : I don't like Ruffles that much
#5 : I've gotten very sweet and thoughtful for some weird reason
#6 : My nose is getting more sensitive
#7 : I am indeed of Dutch descent (So Gusdur's right after all.)
#8 : My eyes look weird under the bathroom light
#9 : I still have a LOT of homework to do
#10 : It's Gusdur's birthday in mere hours. At least I didn't forget, heh.


...and I hope all my readers have a rockin' year ahead. *smoochez*

-thanks for a great time, K!

Celebrations here were terrible, a couple idiots with bottle rockets, someone fired a gun in the air, and something happened at my house (I'll post it later). The fireworks in Times Square were horrible.

Happy New Year, Nashty!

Over here, we have a tradition of eating black-eyed peas for good luck on New Year's morning.

After you have enough to booze -- even icky canned black-eyed peas don't look to bad *chuckle*

Not sure they would go very well with Red Bull.

redbull tastes like cough syrup.

@ woozie : Really? How horrible could fireworks be, Wooz?
Man. I thought nothing beat KL's unknown cancellation and VivoCity's countdown. (I caught it on tv)




@ Gadfly : =) Happy 2007, Gads!
I'm glad I'm not obliged to eat black-eyed peas...or any peas for that matter. Huhuheux.



@ Lastlife : Cough syrup?? Haha... I guess it does taste stupid, but after the first few gulps I just couldn't care anymore. XD

And this is the first time i'm saying this in 2007- Selamat Tahun Baru to u too!

Happy New Year, Nashe darling.

*gasps* There was a countdown in KL that got called off? Eh... how come I didn't know? Oh yeah, that's cos I'm too old for countdowns now.

What would your mom think if she knew you got drunk on Red Bull and Ruffles? Aiyo.

@ Butchie : Heh, yes. I totally will.


@ Vengey : I didn't get 'drunk' drunk ok! Just got really high... and for some reason I wasn't thinking straight.. geez.

And yeah, I watched the news the day after that. It was called off at Merdeka Square due to Hari Raya Haji.. so sad!



@ Deepak : Aww thanks, Deepak!
