NYE 2008!!!

first things first, HAPPY NEW YEARS FOR 2009!!!! *hugs*
Several things to get through, seeing as it's been a month since my last post but while I count down the last few hours of 2008, I'll write about them.
New Year's Resolution: to be neat and tidy and clean my room at least once a month...and to go to the gym regularly. xD
Exciting News No. 1: My house is nearly finished!!! I now have a dark-purple-and-lilac-and cream coloured room. hence the new layout and colours of the blog
Exciting News No. 2: I didn't fail the HSC and my UAI should be enough to get into Pharmacy...unless UAI cutoff jumps up to like 98...bugger it, now I'm paranoid *grumbles*
Hopes for 2009: To get into Pharmacy, to move into my purple room, to bet and win on the Melbourne Cup, Sydney Swans premiership, to keep my New Year's Resolutions, to stay in touch with EVERYBODY, to have an 18th bday party, to go overseas (my mum wants to go to China and Hong Kong (me: HK=DISNEYLAND), my dad wants to go to America) and um...yeah, that's it so far.
Past Events:
Christmas Eve: went to Jaetea's house to make Sarby's card (hope you liked it Sarby!! sorry I couldn't go to your party =[ )
Christmas Day: Carried boxes of tiles and wooden planks around the new house- somehow strained my right arm - it kills to raise it above shoulder height =(
then went to a xmas party hosted by some of parent's friends. Knew pretty much nobody there (as everyone else at the party was related- they were all cousins or something) the people our age were either playing Elastics (me: wtf?) or playing Wii Sports with the little people. I looked like a loser and took out my mp3 and listened to the comfort of the Beatles, while having a convo with Vicky via sms (the joy of technology)- we talked about sand dunes, bogged mercedes and uni choices. then one of the oldies (okay, not the oldies as in the parents who were doing karaoke, but old as in mid to late 20s) invited me to join them. Someone had been given a SPICKS AND SPECKS board game and they were short one player (cos someone went home drunk) and thus I became the last player to join. Needless to say, my endless viewings of my recorded eps of Spicks and Specks and RockWiz paid off, as I won the whole thing =D I was dubbed "Myf Warhurst". Then went in to watch my brother be thrashed in Wii Baseball by a six year old girl half his height. Went home at about 12.30am
Boxing Day: absolutely nothing done except went to YumCha with the rellies

so yes, that's pretty much everything that has happened over Christmas. One last thing- Twilight the movie is hilarious- trust me, if you've read the book first, you will find it hilarious.

so Happy New Year Minna! see ya next year! off to newcastle/tuggerah tomorrow...oh the Joy -.-''
