Chinese new year teeechnically isn't until Feb. 7th, but all the same...



Today, we all got up at 6:00 in the morning to go and see the sun rise. We found the perfect viewing point, and arrived just as the sun was coming over the horizon. It was reminiscent of the beginning of the Lion King. XD Only, this was SO much more amazing seeing as it was real. The sun started out small and red, and you could look at it without hurting your eyes. It got increasingly bigger and more golden. It dyed the sky around it pink, and the bottoms of the clouds were red in reflection.

We then had to go to mass a little while after that, as today was the Solemnity of Mary. After mass Leeny called, so I went to her house, where I spent the rest of the day. Audri was there and some random person I didn't know called Tom showed up. Then, we all watched this DISGUSTINGLY GIRLY chick flick called Bring It On. It was so awful I think that it must have been made partially parodying itself. At least, that's what I'm hoping. After that movie ended, Leeny's boyfriend came over, and we hung out for a bit and then decided to watch 300. Still, Life, the Universe, and Everything got in the way again and I didn't get to see the whole movie. Oh well.

And today was the last day of vacation. Tomorrow, back to school. I need to remember what I'm learning... Uhhh, term paper for science, socialism for history, myths in English, and we're starting new stuff after vacation in geometry and Latin. I don't want to go~ But I suppose I have no choice. I hope it isn't as bad as my stomach has decided it's going to be.

Happy New Year everyone! True, it's still December 31 as I write this, but whatever. 2007 was quite a year... Lots of new stuff and experiences for me. Overall, I think it was great. I'm glad I got to talk to everyone here on LJ throughout the year!

And now, taken from stumbleine1, the survey for the year's end.
