It’s 2008! Happy New Year!!!

My relatives weren’t able to come last night for New Year’s Eve. They said they’ll come by later. We have a LOT of food left. And I made ice cream (cookies and cream)! They’ve been after me to make some for two years now. haha! I always end up making refrigerated peach cake instead - they love that too. I made one and a half trays.

I was too lazy to get my camera so no pictures of the fireworks. And we decided not to buy anything - we just watched our neighbors light theirs up. Besides, my brother Karl and my cousin Yeye are too scared to set up fireworks/firecrackers. It only lasted for about an hour or two anyway. I couldn’t stand the smoke - it made my eyes water so I wore my protective goggles (the ones from my LASIK surgery). hehe. ;) I looked really odd. Some of our neighbors stared at me but I didn’t care! At least my eyes weren’t red.

I hope you all had a great New Year’s Eve!

Did you make any New Year’s resolutions? I didn’t. haha. It doesn’t work for me. I just end up not accomplishing any of it.

Anyway…

Repeat after me! “I AM GOING TO HAVE A FANTASTIC 2008!!!

    I hate smoke, so I think the goggles were a good idea. Who cares if you looked silly, haha. Think of all those raver kids who wear goggles as a fashion statement, lol!

    Wow, you got to go to Tagaytay for the holiday seasons. At least you’re together with your family. Anyway, Belated Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year. As for New Year’s resolutions, I think I did make one and I am going to make an effort to follow them, if not all, some… :)

    Oh god, I hate the smoke too. My poor eyes start to water like half an hour in. Sadly I love fireworks so I’ll have to live with this curse.

    Ya I don’t do those new year resolutions either, they never stick.

    Happy 2008!

    I never make resolutions…they never stick, lol. I just always try to improve myself every year, so I guess that could kinda be considered a resolution? ;)

    Take care, and thanks for commenting! :heart:

    Your fireworks lasted for an hour or two? That’s a really long time! My b/f set some off. They probably lasted about 5-10 mins at max.

    I don’t make New Years Resolutions either. I mean, why lie to yourself that you’re going to do all these things when you know that in reality you’re not going to lol.

    And I AM going to have a great 2008. I can feel it. It’s going to be a great year.

    Cookies and cream ice-cream. YU-MMY! :D That’s one of my all-time favourite ice-cream flavours. I should like, learn to do it from you or something, LOL. :P

    Haha, I think it’s cute that you wore goggles. But hey, anything to protect your eyes from that nasty smoke! :D

    I’m still undecided on my New Year resolution, but even if I am, like you, I can hardly have anything accomplished, LOL. Well anyway, Happy 2008 to you! :)

    Hey there! Ahh, I miss the greymatter smilies :high: Hmm, anyways, happy new year! I agree, new years resolutions usually never work. I don’t even try anymore, haha. Our neighbors were setting off fireworks, also, which was kind of an inconvenience seeing as I had to drive to drop off friends. Anyways, take care!
