The first post of the new year !!!

Okay.. welcome to my very first post of the new year. I've been really lazy all this while, mainly because classes hadn't started yet after the vacations. So I was just content to stay in my room and sleep :).

About the New Year's Eve:- In the morning I went to the Greenwich Observatory with my friends,walked on the Universal Time Meridian and shivered a lot in the extreme cold..lol...
I had sort of tried to organise a party for the new year's eve at the student housing, but it didn't materialise since different people wanted to celebrate new year differently (rolling eyes). So we just sort of had a get together, the ones who wanted to spend the new year my way, that is, we just hanged out and talked, went for dinner at an Indian restaurant in Whitechapel (yes,Jack the Ripper's place lol ), then we headed to Central London to see the main new year fireworks. So we had to get down in between because the tubes got closed because of the rush. So we walked to the bank of the Thames by the London Eye. The fireworks was kind of short, but they were amazing and awesomely beautiful :D. It was worth standing in the cold for 2 hours waiting for it.My only wish for the new year was that please please please don't let it be like the previous one. Please don't let it be as depressing and sad as 2009..... After that we came back (travel was free by the way) to the common room at the housing of our doctor friends and talked and played and had tea etc etc . Finally got home to bed by about 7 in the morning :).

About turning 21:- Well, I turned 21 in the new year. It was really nice...and tiring. I thought my friends had all gone to bed, I couldn't find anyone online and I'd just had a fight with one of them 2 days before. I was just talking to one of my best friends and telling her that everyone's sleeping etc and we are having a party in the evening etc etc and there is a rap on the door :). Voila!!! that's every one :) :) :). We had a nice time 'pastry cutting' and all that ;). We made a whole video of it and it was really really nice. The party was... well, really tiring because we walked from pub to pub to fill everyone's criteria, dancing and boozing and disco music and no entry fee..... finally we came back to the common room of my housing to celebrate... that was the best part. One of my friends,poor guy, got stranded because of a lecture that ran late... and he had to come tube-hopping from here and there whenever we changed venues lol. All in all, it was nice, and my closest friends,they had made a video for me..which was very sweet :D.

Now back to classes, they are seriously starting to scare me. Should start studying properly now. Net is down in the housing for the weekend... so I started to type this in the library, but now relocated to the study area because the library closed for the day. Gotta go now.... So long...!!!!!!
