32. Drove alone to Citos for the first time.
33. Applied to Music City FM as the on-air staff only to be called back to try out for the announcer job. Lost cause from the beginning.
...I can't think of anything else. Nyeh, quiet and numbing year.
As for closure, I had a quiet but nice NY's eve at Ped's with Bun and Sya. Watching Star Wars episode III, eating like there's no tomorrow, playing with the sparklers and fireworks... Rozelle stopped by for a few blinks of an eye. So, tears from the NYE before didn't come back. But something has been nagging me since though. Let's just say, I'm pulling a Joey to someone's Ross and Emily.
The great thing this time is, I had a second new year's celebration. Ped, Bun, Sya and I went to Bandung on the 2nd, stayed at this nice hotel called Puri Larasati for two nights, and spent some QT with Ingga and Ebonk. Aside from my feeling like death was the next thing for me, it was fun. I didn't want to go home.
However, I'm home now. And I just want to say, I love my friends (they're the only ones that keep my inside reeling besides shopping these days). And I hope they'll always be around for the next new year and new years to come. As for the rest of the world,
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007!!!
