There is always a beginning...

Was a fairly low key new year's eve, but I enjoyed every bit of it.
The night started with dinner with mom and dad at home, followed by dinner part II with Christine, Jason and Desmond. We went for yeeendian (as Trina Chan would say) food at Samy's. It's this lovely indian resturant atop a small hill at Dempsy Road. Checkit!
This was followed by drinks at Tango's at Holland Village.
Christine and I were all geared up to get ourselves completely sloshed before midnight came so she had 8 and I had 6 tequilla shots. Together with 2 cosmos each, we were happy girls by the time the countdown started.
Everyone was really spontaneous and 4 of us stood on our chairs with our party hats and blowy thingamabobs and screamed our lungs out. It was good.

The highlight of the night was post countdown, when we got up to leave. Christine fell flat on her face. The girl slipped and sort of glided gracefully landing flat on her stomach. OUCH! We pulled her up and Dezzo faced the people watching in the cafe behind and screamed "SHe's alright!", and everyone started clapping and cheering. Yea baby Yea! Muahahah!

Goodbye 2003!
