First blog in 2009!!!

it's been a while since i've written a proper blog... i always seem so rushed and when i do find time to blog, i fill up space by taking the easy way out, like doing questionnaires, dot-pointing stuff, etc etc... it's a new yr, so i'll aim to write something meaningful and actually worth reading hehe

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009 EVERYONE!! [i know i'm a week late, but u know me, azn time XD]

i hope everybody had a kickass celebration... i did =) instead of the usual going out to see the fireworks and then staying out 'til really late thing that i normally do, i did the house party, watching the fireworks on TV and then staying up 'til really late thing hehe and 'cause it's the new yr, i normally like to try some new things to show just how adventurous i am [i think i was being a little sarcastic there...] this is what i did this yr:

1. i played Guitar Hero: World Tour... yeah, it took me THIS long to play it but it was a lotta fun...
2. i tried Heineken beer... still hasn't made me a beer person...
3. walked through a 24 hr Maccas drive-thru... i never even knew u could do this!! but it was awesome and we scored free hash browns hehe totally worth staying up 'til 4:30am for this
4. slept in a back seat of a car AND the front yard... i've slept in the back of the car b4 but i've never actually taken up the WHOLE back seat hehe it actually turned out to be the best place i slept in that nite/morning... then slept in the front yard for a bit 'cause all the cars had either left or were locked... that was an interesting experience...

all in all, it was a fun nite/morning and a great way to start off the yr... i just hope the rest of my yr doesn't turn out like this hehe they say that the way to spend ur NYE celebrations is how u spend the rest of ur yr... that was actually the case last yr so i hope it's not a repeat =P

in other news, i've played poker 4 days so far this yr [5 if u count NYE leading into NYD] and i've had a pretty good streak... won $36 in my cash games and came 2nd in one of my APL games... not too shabby for the black widow/bridesmaid/calling station hehe yeah, i know... my life seems dedicated to poker... i'm actually trying not to play it so much... i wanna pick up another hobby to get good at instead... if nobody has any other suggestions, i'm thinking of trying to get better at DDR... played that last nite and OMG, i'm totally unfit =(

i think i've rambled on enough for today... my life isn't interesting enough =(
