So New Years ever is tomorow. 2008. The year that America gets either a black, or female president. The year of Smash Bros. The year of, nothing else really.

So what are you doing for New Years. Staying in. Going out. Playing board games. Partying up?

Me, my brother, my sister, and a couple of my friends are gonig to a Dark Rave in Toronto. Which means partying hard.

What are you're plans?

[Laharl]

i'm working, WITH DOUBLE PAY *****ES

that's £11.44 an hour, or $22 if you prefer :)

[Linear]

D: I'm hoping to see my childhood friends I've known since kindergarten. I was so sad when it was postponed the last minute just yesterday. :) PARTY!!!

[Drizzy Drake]

Here if I were to work on a Holiday I get double time and a half. So that's 9+9+4.5.

Which actualy equals $22.5. Oh **** you Laharl.

Ha I'm off to bed. Gonna get a good night sleep. Raving hard tomorow.

[My Best Wishes]

I'm going to the movies since I've hardly been since I started working there, and then I'm hoping to pick up a shift for tomorrow (Yay double pay!)

[Someone Else]

Absolutely nothing!

[TheEnglishman]

I'm doing nothing. Cause I'm that exciting. From what I've heard, most of my friends aren't either. A smart person would have made a party from that.

[Wiflewood]

Going to a party.

[I'm Always BROKE]

Going out probably.

[Mallick]

P-A-R-T-Y.

[Aquamarine]

PARTY ALL THE TIME!!

Going in a couple of hours with a bunch of friends. Can't wait to get pissed with 'em.

[Moonear]

Watching movies and eating fattening, high calorie foods with friends and cousins. :)

[Folcon]

Shooting off fireworks untill someone calls the cops, I burn off my eyebrows, blow of a finger, or run out of fireworks. Which evercomes first. Weather permitting.

[Golden Legacy]

lol escout.

I'm spending my vacation with my family, who moved recently and live far away from my NYC friends/life, so I'm just going to spend New Year's with them. Nice, simple, relaxing.

[Drizzy Drake]

Well I'm off to Toronto in about 20 minutes. Gonna go pick up a couple friends then it's driving time. Everybody have fun at the big countdown thingamajig.

[kate]

I will be here. Having a party. By myself. T.T

People in Australia are already in 2008!! TELL US ABOUT THE WONDERS OF THE FUTURE

[Eugine]

x3.
I usually go watch fireworks with my family, but the opted out to go church tonight.
I'll be staying home by myself I guess...

[Drizzy Drake]

I'm just outside right now having a, um, "cigar", ya that's it, so I asked my sister if I could use her blackberry. SO how's everybody's New Years Eve Partys?

EDIT-Ok I'm gonig back in. Everybody have a safe(like that's likely) New Years.

[Lightning Star]

I'm doing absolutely nothing. Probably just finishing up my part of a collab I'm working on. Journaling about the past year. Maybe finishing up a layout I started earlier. Getting drunk on sparkling cider :)

[Eugine]

Happy new years! This is my first post in 2008!

[Golden Legacy]

May 2008 bring great things. Happy New Year all! :)

(woohoo, this is my first post of the year too!)

[Tasuki]

Happy New Year Everyone!

[Lightning Star]

Ah. Still 2007 here. One more hour...

[kate]

lol yay icy! go same timezone

HAPPY NEW YEAR whatever time it is where you are. well technically it's 15 mins past 12 but hey, I was a busy person :)

Oh gawd, the lies.

2008, the year of the kate

[TheEnglishman]

It's been new year for a good 7 hours now. The strange thing is, I woke up with a headache and I don't even drink. :)
Wow I thought almost everyone had made the jump by now.

[Someone Else]

zomg GL and Me111 are in the future!!!!!

[Lightning Star]

Wait, WD, are you on the same time zone as me? 1:45 AM?

[Someone Else]

You're an hour (ahead) off.

[Lightning Star]

...behind? That wouldn't make sense... Because Arizona comes before California...

Arizona is the nonconformist state. We just don't do "DST". Everyone else is just confusing.

[Someone Else]

It's 12:49 at the time of this post. :)

[Luna]

Like a good lil Maple geek, I spent New Years on Maple ): ALL of my best friends went to have a fancy dinner at the house of a girl that I can't stand (and she doesn't like me either) so LOLZ.

However, some of my best friends on Maple were online :) And we had a x2 exp event so yay.

I also took care of this stray dog that doesn't belong to anyone but the whole neighborhood takes care of her. She's scared ****less when there's fireworks, so she's been under my bed the whole time.

[Aquamarine]

Aw, that's very nice of you Sheba. The dog part that is... My dog was terrified because of the fireworks and gun shots too, so she spent all night in the house, watching TV with my dad.

Anyhow, last night's party was great. Thankfully, I didn't get as drunk as I thought I would. I danced for 5 hours straight, so I was dead tired afterwards. Came back home at 6 am and woke up a couple of hours ago(it's 6 pm now). A girl that I don't know but was dancing close to me and my friends cut herself severely at the party. I saw her whole arm in blood, and one of my friend's says that her leg was all bloody too. We noticed afterwards that I had a few dried droplets of her blood on my arm. My jacket is now completely stiff and hard because of all the beer it absorbed, and my hair is disgusting for the same reason. My idiotic mates had to have a beer fight... I can't bother washing my hair yet though. After the party I waited for about an hour for a bus to come, so I freezed my tits off there. So all in all, I had a great time.

[Someone Else]

That doesn't sound like fun. ._.

[Aquamarine]

But it was very fun. Really!

[I'm Always BROKE]

Ofcoarse it was, cause if you wake up everything you did the night before seems at least 100 times as fun. I hate morning headaches, that was a good motivation for me to 'almost' completly stop drinking. I hardly drunk yesterday either.

Ohh and I lied! I didn't went to a party, instead I spended my whole night from 0.30 till 7.00am high, walking around the city with a good friend greeting serval unknown people and later sit infront of a big fire while listening music and talking. Was good fun, but one of my resolutions this year is to cut the smoking this year.

And before I forget; Happy New Years everyone! :)

[Wiflewood]

Sounds like fun Fire Dude.

My night consisted of Alcohol, Drugs and Rock & Roll.
Unfortunately no sex.

[Eugine]

haha, unfortunately 'eh.
I was watching fireworks outside my house at 12AM. When 12:05 I ran into the house to wish all my friends (and GSSF) happy new years over the phone and on messenger ^^.

[Wiflewood]

I never text or ring anyone at midnight, I did it about an hour before, as the phone lines are usually all jammed, and when you try to text or ring someone you just get a 'Cannot connect' message.

[Lightning Star]

My friend texted me with a happy new year and I sent one back.

No alcohol, drugs or sex for me. Then again, I'm pretty much a straight edge, so I most likely wouldn't even if I had the opportunity.

Stayed up until about 4 AM and just woke up about half an hour ago [2 PM]. 'Twas fun. I tried writing a speed one-shot before the new year came in, but I couldn't manage it. I ended up finishing it around 12:30.

So Happy New Year, everyone!

[Aquamarine]

I've sent and received texts to/from about 20 friends. I sent almost all of them today(the 1st of January) for the reason that Wifle said.

[Blue]

Wanna know what I did? I slept.

[Caael]

I shot some fireworks, downed several glasses of champers and then got tired and kinda fell half on my bed.

[Drizzy Drake]

Just got back from Toronto. Had a great time. First post of the New Year for me. It all feels so, new. Go Cananda in the olympics.

[Folcon]

I didn't shoot of my fireworks like I planed. There is just no place nearby I would be comfortable setting them off. Too many nearby cars, houses, and plants. But I did get somewhat drunk and did some stuff that is better off not metioned on this forum. But I don't regret a moment of it.

Note: except for the fireworks, the above statment is totaly false. Nothing happend except I played Wii sprts untill about a minute before the ball dropped in Times Square, then I went to bed.

Edit: Acctualy, I played FFIII.

[Caael]

so which one did you actually do?

[Folcon]

I played FFIII untill the ball dropped. I did have a screwdriver though.

[Laharl]

worked, earning lots of monies

then had some drinks later, which failed to get me remotely drunk D:

[Drizzy Drake]

Drink more.

[Laharl]

good plan

additional drinks would have cost money though....

[Drizzy Drake]

Didn't you jsut get off a shift though?

[Laharl]

yeah, but there's only so much i can steal borrow without eyebrows being raised

[Drizzy Drake]

Ha. Ya. Seeing as I'm underage me and Tyler(a guy I work with) alwasy jsut take beers from the beer cooler thingy, which is almsot never locked. And my supervisor Amanda always gives me shots when the head boss isn't looking.

[Eugine]

lol. Nice life there. I hope you don't get drunk ^^.

heh, i can remember some of the old staff where i work and the drinking games, such as name a drink and whoever serves someone that drink has to down a double aftershock, good times XD.. only the supervisor gave a ****, the manager doesnt care, as in staff have turned up drunk and he's not cared

There's the wonders of extreme staff discount, what's that Cider costs the same as a pack of crisps?

....

what? I'm a good barman XD

[Drizzy Drake]

Well ussually I'll only have downed a couple shots by the time my shifts are done, and then I drink alot, and even if I get a tiny bit tipsy, we're in the back doing dishes, so we never bother anybody.

[Lightning Star]

Cider used to be just applejuice... *sigh*
