oh, nine?

January 6, 2009

My first thought as we entered 2009: I want to have a drink, please.

Again, I spent New Year’s Eve at work; a strange yet interesting way to start the year. Bosses gave away chocolates after the dreary countdown was over. People applauded and stood up to spread lousy greetings while I lazily type away in my computer. So I officially spent the last minute of 2008 and the first minute of 2009 working. Moments later, my colleagues talked about the pasta, variety of salads and leche flan (which turned out to be just delicious leche) that we were about to share for an early morning meal.

Come mealtime, we had a festive Media Noche sustained by mere initiative to bring whatever we can or had. It wasn’t the worst New Year’s celebration for me… because at least we were not compelled to walk a kilometer to the nearest Jolibee just to have decent pseudo-festive food, which isn’t even that decent. Much better, AT LEAST we were not relatives who pretended to like each other at family reunions, or awkward friends of friends who were forced to socialize at a party. We were just people who happened to be in the same place at the same time doing the same thing. It really wasn’t that bad; but I just wanted to have a drink, that’s all.

I was too hard on myself for the past year, the least I could manage was finish off with a swig of liver poison. On to sober 2009 then.

Aw just think of the money you made working on New Year’s Day. It’s not the same as fireworks and booze but you gotta admit it’s even just a teeny bit comforting

Happy new year, Anna O.

Sana makapaginuman tayo sometime. Hehe.
