near

well kiddies, i promised you a "sarah" entry...but we'll have 6 months to prepare for that!!
today's the first day of winter...sad, eh? but the sooner it starts, the sooner it'll be over! and with the inevitable beginning of winter, that can only mean one thing; christmas is near...but more importantly, NEW YEAR'S EVE is nearer!!!
i dont' know why new year's eve is such a big ordeal...now, don't get me wrong i love it, probably even more than the next guy, but what's so big about it? have you ever really considered it?
it's just another reason to drink, isn't it? just another friday night out with the crew, right? WRONGO!!! it's new years!!!!! it's the end of a year, and the beginning of a new one! it's also the solution to the sad anti-climax that follows with the conclusion of the christmas season! it's the one time of the year that even those who don't usually "indulge" will break out those beer bongs and get crazy!! hmmmm, it's funny the way this holiday (and yes, it is a holiday) went...if you think about it, it would make sense if new year's eve was an eve of hermit-ish behaviour!! we should all be staying inside and hibernating (?-spelling) and consider all the terrible things we did in the year that has passed...

fuck that!!! new year's is a time to celebrate!! young and old, get crazy, funkin' go nuts!!!!! (meliss, that was for you) it's not every day that one year ends, and a new one begins!!

now on the subject of new year's resolutions, i can't say i've ever been on their side! the whole idea of resolving to change something about yourself implies that you've done or been doing something wrong in the first place!! which, of course, is ludicrous...at least for me...just kiddin'...

anyways, it's a week or so away, but i'm just getting a little pre-excited for the celebration of the year!!!!!! did i hype it up enough for you yet?
