So how was your new years eve?
my first time really free from work again in 3 years or so, stopped myself from overdoing it and going to a disappointment at a big party, jsut went with a bunch of people to the traditional noise demo at the refugee prison and then we had drinks, crappy music, oliebollen and a small bonfire on the street at a legalized squat.
it was nice, lots of old faces, quite some new ones, also a big group of the politicized refugee activists who partied with us.
now time to go to bed. happy new year

It was pretty awesome.

Pretty lame. Some woman in her mid-30's (which, being a decade older than myself, gives her the ability to speak from the exalted mountaintop of age and wisdom) tried life coaching me in a bar, that was about the highlight.

Meh. This year in particular I thought about how stupid it was. This obligatory forced cheerfulness after the countdown. Why? Can't we just go about a normal day and be like 'happy new years by the way' while playing FIFA? And the news around 21:00 when it was new year's in Asia, it actually said something like "2015/New Year's celebrated with fireworks in Asia". Wow, really? How odd. And then the obligatory news headlines showing fireworks in Australia and the rest of the world 'look they celebrated new year's with fireworks here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and here'. wow, amazing. And I didn't feel like the obligatory going out so I went home.
Typing this made me realise I'm cynical. And maybe a cynical dick.
pew pew pew
I went to some piazza (how is this in English? I dunno) to watch the fireworks, but overall felt like Tim. Meh.
At least I drank a bit of scotch to let things go smoothly.

I had a drink or two, but I had to drive home to be at fucking work at 9am right now. So I didn't drink to much, almost at all, because being 18 here I'm not allowed to have a single point of alcohol on my breath when driving. They also put checkpoints like crazy on holidays like this.
EDIT:
ps. I still hate my family.

To be fair, when you've had enough to drink, the cheerfulness isn't always forced.

I just lay in bed, wondering if I'll make it through another year.

I drove a couple friends to a large punk rock party. One decided to head to another party not long after, at a house where people I had a falling out with live at. I guess he had a good night, and woke up next to another friend of mine.
My other friend got way too drunk and we had to leave fairly quickly. I was really looking forward to socializing, but ended up taking care of someone too drunk to really interact with; I was completely sober since I quit drinking a couple months ago.
I really need friends who don't drink. And a social life, period.
Still hanging. Spent about 8 hours doing nothing but drinking at too fast a pace. Oh dear.
Music and drinking and... soup? Soup.

Pretty alright. Had to go to another city to party with my (relatively new) girlfriend's old classmates, which sucked. Got to be with her though, so that's a plus.
It was excellent.
I watched approx two thirds of the second Hobbit movie, and went to sleep at 10 PM. I'm not even kidding.
No, we can't. We could, though, if playing Pro Evolution Soccer.

“The possibility of securing for every member of society, by means of socialized production, an existence not only fully sufficient materially, and becoming day by day more full, but an existence guaranteeing to all the free development and exercise of their physical and mental faculties – this possibility is now for the first time here, but it is here.” Friedrich Engels

I literally don't know anybody that plays that. I haven't heard that name in six years or so. I'm not much of a gamer so maybe I'm mistaken, but I feel like that game withered away in my area.

Spent the evening in a cafe, then watched the fireworks from the upper city.
Then got horribly ill and spent the next day reading about the linear banded pottery culture in bed,
Wait, for real? Awh, I had to read about that stuff in October.
Holy shit, slow down there old man.
Went to a friend's small house party in a rich section of center city. Golden Monkey, Fireball, and Tequila all around. Apartment is right on the Delaware so we had an awesome view of the fireworks.
The girls wanted to go out dancing so some of us went to this place which was waaay to upscale for me. Suit and tie shit, so I dipped down a few blocks to a basement dive club. Danced with strangers till closing. Wandered the streets for about hour and failed to hookup with an old interest.
Managed to get back to my friends place safely.

It was kind of awful, I went to a small party and this drunk woman kept cornering me and talking to me about someone I don't even know. Ended up leaving before midnight
