happy new year!!! wow, its not as thrilling as it used to be. 10 years ago, christmas eve and welcoming the new year is something that really kept me up and something i really anticipated. now, well, its no different from any other day, or night. we just eat at midnight, that's pretty much it. at least the internet connection seems to be back to normal again. as for the year 2007, i hope this will be a better year. didnt like 2006 that much although it wasnt that bad.
