Happy new year!!!

well, what is New Years without a friend getting thrown out of a pub for breaking someone's nose?? ha.

my plans for New Years fell through, so i went to a friend from uni's place for a bit of a celebration. we ended up going to the Walkabout (good old aussie pub) which was lucky, because it is a 2 minute walk from my house, so it was easy for me to get home. So we had a great night in an aussie pub with heaps of aussies, although to describe it think first year uni at North Sydney. But even though i was with some great people, the rest of the crowd were your typical drunk people who have one thing on their mind (and it was very crowded, so there were a lot of people wishing for some fun on new years eve)... so everytime someone walked past you you had to protect yourself from wandering hands. No wonder my friend tried to protect his girlfriend. But seeing as he had had a bit to drink, he thought headbutting the offender was the best way... the security guards weren't too happy with that, so our new years celebrations ended at about 1:15am. Not too bad an effort.

Oh and we got to see the fireworks from the Thames on the tv, in a much warmer environment than actually being there. And as much fun as having trousers soaked up to the mid-shin in beer is, i don't know how soon i will be going back to the walkabout. ha. But all in all, i did have a good evening.

I was missing home, but i was glad to be with friends! An intersting adventure for New Years to say the least.

well, sleep for me now i think.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all! Hope you had fun bringing it in with people you love.

love you all,
