Its a new year everyone!
I've gotta say, inspite of the fact i was at work ALL FUCKING DAY, i had a belter of a new years. I didnt get to see everyone i would have liked to but then that's the same every year and i think for everyone.
I was rushed off my feet, surrounded by stressed co-workers and drunken lary punters and i loved every minute of it. To be at the centre of so many people's new years happiness, and getting bought SO many drinks by them. I cant really explain what working the bar in a locals pub on new years is like but its fucking amazing if you're willing to ignore the fact you're not pissing your money away and acting like a twat yourself.
So, 2008 - all in all, if i had my time again, i dont think i'd change a thing. You werent a perfect year and i had my share of heartaches and disappointments. But none of them killed me and what doesnt kill us only makes us stranger stronger. Hand on heart I can say that i've learn from all my mistakes this year and enjoyed the triumphs that i have had the good fortune to experience.
I've relearnt the value of friendship and connected again with some people i now cant image losing. I love my friends so, so much and its been a damn long time since i could say a friend meant more to me than anything else in the world but for now, she's made it true.
I'm not going to dwell on my defeats over the last 12 months, they happened, I didnt die, thats more or less the end of it.
And 2009 what can I look forward to with you? Well, I'll finally be clear of the debts i incrued whilst drunk 6yrs ago. I plan very much on seeing more of my Brother and spending a lot more time up his end of the world. I pledge to spend every day making my friends aware just how damn much i love and appeciate them. I really, really do love you and I want you to know that.
This next 12 months isnt going to be perfect and i'm sure they will bring their own challenges and obsticles. But i'm going into them with my head held high and my heart filled with love.
love,
new years
