Jan. 2nd, 2004 04:32 pmLast year, I was standing above the Thames, facing the Houses of Parliament, and cheered with thousands of other people as Big Ben rang in the start of the new year.
This year, I sat on my bed (the only other piece of furniture in my miserably untidy flat apart from the computer desk), holding a bottle of root beer and watching other people having fun on t.v, and when the big ball dropped in Times Square to signal the start of 2004...I just sat there, sobbing pathetically.
That's how I greeted the new year. As a pathetic, lonely failure.
Please don't let me end the year the same way.

Other 25 year olds have great jobs and houses and aren't living in their parent's shadow (although thankfully I am not living in my dad's house *shudder*).
Bah. Am just moping. Ignore me. :)

Unfortuntely I have none. I'd really quite like some Mr Kipling victorian sponge cake cookie things, the ones with the raspberry jam and creamy centre...oohh those are nice. Or some big fluffy chocolate chip cookies.
Damn. Now I have to go shopping. :-P
