Tonight we gathered at C's house for some good food, some good company, and lots of alcohol. We all contributed to the dinner, which was hot pot, and there were even two cakes. Gluttonously, I ate enough to feed a small Third World nation.
C got her new cell phone that was pimped out by S. I had such a hard time keeping that one a secret so that it would be a surprise. Primarily because C had planned to get a new cell earlier this week but S asked me to stop her but not tell her who was getting her one or how. I had to balance letting enough slip to stop her from buying a new phone yet keep S's secret. I'm just glad it's all out in the open now.
We almost missed the countdown because we were trying to find a good channel that showed it but couldn't. Luckily, we narrowly just made it. Although, it was quite anti-climactic since we half-hearted yelled out 'happy new year' to each other; no kiss, no nothing. We decided to play "what would your name be if you were White?" Apparently, I'm a Sarah. I don't know, I always thought Sophie was White enough but it was fun to play the game.
In the midst of all the laughter and eventual descent into lethargy, we all answered our text messages and phone calls of well-wishes from our friends and families. It was close to 1:30am before he called. Great way to ring in the new year.
