Impatiently waiting for the new year

Christmas has come and gone. Spent it wishing my friends over the internet and watched "The Polar Express". Now that's my kind of movie. More on it later. For now, I'm preparing myself for the grand new year. Year 2005. My new year celebrations are always jinxed.

Last year I spent it in Brussels at the Grand Palace. Reached the place really late, so had to watch the fireworks from the sidelines. Jumping over unassuming bystanders to get a glimpse of the lights. Ducking the crackers being hurled at us. And we came running home because of the mob. The worst part was reaching the supermarket late. Couldn't get that bottle of french wine we were saving up for. Had to contend with diluted whiskey and biscuits. And since we had no good movies on TV, we slept off by 2:00 am.

Lets see what roller coaster ride I'm gonna go through this time.
