NewYearSCliche

You are on the archive wiki. The new wiki is here. Let me kick off with: May the best of last year be the worst of this year!

New year's was a blast...
After work on friday headed to watch Ocean's Twelve - funny movie, and it had one of my fav european actors in it. After that, bought alcohol for the evening, which started off at a holiday house otherside of Simonstown. There we linked up with Emma's friends, although we were majorly pissd off with her cos she told us at the last minute we couldn't sleep over due to lack of space - actually it was a friendship politics thing, but hey her house - she gets to be a bitch now and again. (actually I like Emma - she's fun)

Got to Jubilee Square at about 11 - it was fun watching all the underage teens milling around. We realised there and then that we could have made a KILLING selling alcohol to them if we had been prepared (hell we already had had fun with our 'energy boosters' that we considered selling in clear plastic sackets - oh, it was all legal...not that we would have been selling illegl drugs or anything like that) Spent the next couple of hours milling around and having fun with the others. Saw the new year in and all that. Even had a chat with Emma about tongue rings. Sometime later got some phone calls in to wish friends...was very interesting in who I got calls and smses from - and more importantly who I didn't get from...but hey shit happens. The other bit of humour came after we had left - we got a call from two friends, still at the square, saying that their lift had buggered of and not told anyone - plus her phone was off.

The following morning I surfaced at Kevin's place - hoorah for my ability not to get hangovers. Eventually my folks arrived for the traditional braai and chatted to family and friends until myself, Kevin, Tarryn, Rowan and Richard went through to Ratanga. Enroute Richard told us how he and Clarance eventually got home.

Ratanga was a blast, especially considering that 2 of the group had never been and I hadn't been since I was dating Rebecca...I'd say 3 years ago. Thank god the queues were short - the longest we stood was for about 15 min with the Cobra. The most fun we have was going through the Crocodile Gorge...yes it's a quiet ride...not with this lot though. The first time round we were pushing everyone we could into the waterfalls. The second time round Kevin and Tarryn chickened out on us so Rowan, Richard and myself had a hoot clambering over the raft trying to avoid the waterfalls. For once eating their overpriced food paid off too - ended up getting food for free cos the girl who server me wasn't paying attention.

That evening went to my "baby sister's" parents' place - it was their wedding anniversary and I stopped by to wish them. Chatted for a while and Danielle and I swopped new year eve party stories...was fun. After that headed home to crash...over 40 hours with maybe 3-4 hours sleep is fun.

Yesterday I spent the day contemplating what I would die for...and came up with not much. Who? - now that was another question ALL TOGETHER...and I was surprised myself when I realised how short the list actually was.

Ever jumped off a cliff and as you fall the branches of trees batter you on the way down...slowing your fall...but hurt you all the some. Ever wonder how a person feels like when they hit the ground - still alive...I've a funny feeling I'm going to find out - metaphorically, of course.

Hm...only made one new year's resolution this year; actually it's a carry over from last year...
