Archetype - Through The Sparks - Lazarus Beach - 2007

So, typically speaking New Years Eve is my favorite holiday of the year, though most people I know hate it. To me, New Years is about celebrating possibility. Granted, things look really really bleak right now, but you never know: 2009 could be the best year of your life. 2009 could be the year that the whole world comes together. 2009 could be the year that you have the craziest adventure, the wildest love affair, the best new job. 2009 could be the year that a cure for cancer/diabetis/baldness is found. 2009 could be the year we implement a workable solution for health care/education/poverty. Any of this is possible. 2009 could just be another year, or the worst year of your life...but why not celebrate the possibility of what it COULD be?

As for NYE itself, people talk about hating the expectations, but I've found that if you go in with no expecations, just treat it as a night in which you are drinking with some friends...you will find that you will have a great night. If you go in expecting some sort of grand experience, you will probably be disappointed.

And usually, NYE is one of the best times of the year for me...usually...
