i'm really bored and i feel bad because i wasn't able to catch yesterday's episode of Starting Over at ETC. yes, i'm into that show. i used to criticize it like why would you go to the Starting Over house just to change your life the other way around? but it does make sense, you know. sometimes you need people to push you a little to make that change. when you're left alone, you'll end up making mistakes over and over again. guidance won't kill. it actually helps.

i can't believe it's new year's eve later. time passes by too fast it's almost scary (not that i'm complaining). i hear my neighbors play with firecrackers at this very moment. as for my family, we don't usually light up firecrackers on new year's eve. my family and i just go out to the street outside the gate. we then watch our neighbors' suicidal attempts to light killer firecrackers. they have guts, i tell you. they fearlessly light up that deadly thing that should be illegal. but it's okay. it's amusing to have all that noise when the clock strikes 12am. my uncle turns on his car's alarm all the time just to add to the noise. i, on the otherhand, still believe in jumping as high as i can in hopes of adding a few inches to my height. but to no avail, obviously.

last night i was talking to a friend on YM. i kept ranting about how i want to breakaway from the tradition of spending new year's eve at home. i want to watch a fireworks display. they have an annual fireworks display and countdown in The Fort yearly, right? that's where i want to go. but i doubt that my family members would allow me to be absent during the traditional Medya Noche. all we do is eat, talk, watch the clock until it strikes midnight, watch neighbors play with death, then head off to bed. it sounds boring but sometimes it's pretty okay to spend it like that. this year (er, later) i want to watch fireworks. but i doubt that it's going to happen. boo for traditions.

new year's resolutions? i don't really make a list because i'd end up disappointing myself if i don't realise the list. so what for, right?

Have a Happy and Safe New Year, EVERYONE :)
