Greetings from the UK and Happy New Year to you all...

The time here is now 0.30hrs and I am NOT drunk, the first 'dry' new years for me in ages! :Confused:

Hope you all have a fantastic 2009...

Sober as a bird, and I'm actually at a New Year's party.

Luckily I was able to get into a WiFi hotspot with my N95. :D

My evening didn't turn out as planned, I had a few but didn't get nearly as drunk as I would have liked.

Oh-Well

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

I got so drunk last night.. and I don't usually drink. I felt like I had to celebrate a year that went really good for me. I got engaged in 2008, bought my first house, had a good deal of success in my business. I know it wasn't a great year for a lot of people, but I had to celebrate for my own sake. Hopefully 2009 will bring better times for everyone!

Congrats on everything! Definitely worth celebrating..

2008 was a pretty trashy year for me, apart from getting back with my Ex who I dated about 7 years ago, but I'm still in debt, I gained a bit of weight I worked my tail off to get off. I also ended up on the streets back at the end of February with no place to go and no where to put my stuff, I could go on..

I'm really hoping '09 will be better for me..
