Ushering in 2008
2007 was 2 days ago, time flies when we are busy. How was your new year celebration?
Mine was a toned down affair compared to the previous year, instead of partying away at a club, this time around was held at Greg’s secret hideout.
A bunch of us decide to instead of getting caught in the traffic crawl of the new year, we might as well just get together at a home and party among ourselves. And true enough, that’s what we did, the home of choice was Greg’s place in Seksyen 14. Overseeing a wonderful view of KL’s major tourist spots, it has become a good spot for us to look out at all the fireworks that will be on display come midnight.
Before that? Each of us was to bring a dish as it’ll be a pot luck party and typical of this group of friends. There’s more alcohol than food, nevertheless, we vowed to finish them.
As it’s also a working day, not everyone arrived until way past 9pm as those that worked late got caught in the city crawl. One of the core things that has become a MUST-DO was to Cam-whore. Yup! Loads of Cam-whoring, drinking and eaten happened until 5minutes before midnight.
After the usual countdown and New Year greetings, everyone camped around the windows to watch the 15minutes or so firework display that light up the skies.
After all that firework hoo haa, Jac and Vinnie was nice enough to prepare a list of songs for us to sing to and yes, en-mass karaoke session that rocked the whole apartment unit. How loud was it? Let’s just say that when I went down to collect some stuff in the car, I could hear the singing…. 16 floors down!
As the time ticked off into the 1st day of 2008, we decide to play some nice games of Charade, with MOVIES as a theme. Let’s just say that I won’t get to be the game-master after this adventure (I’m not old, i just watch alot of movies .. new and old!). After that little adventure, we move on to another exciting game that revolves around drinking.
The time strucked 4am and we decide to give the residents of that apartment unit some sleep by making our way out of the place. All in all, it was a great New Year party.
Last word HEAVY NEW YEAR
