Happy New Year ya'll!

[The Hierophant]

The Year begins afresh by the Chinese calendar!
Well, it's midnight in Dunedin and the fireworks are all going off downtown. I can see them from my window, not too bad, but not that impressive either. There is a large enough Chinese population here to justify state-funded celebrations. Hey, any excuse to get blotto. I'm outta here, make the Year of the Monkey a fine one!

Hey Aaron, haven't talked to you in ages. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Just yesterday though, I was reading some of the old jokes you posted on Pandemonium because I wanted to save them to my PC and they were still hilarious. Missed ya, don't be a stranger!
Happy New Year!

Ok, screw going out. My flatmates and I are just gonna drink at home tonight

Mel: yeah man! Missed you too! How ARE you doin' my dear?? S'been a while huh? Hope you've been taking care of yourself. We'll have to catch up on all the goss sometime soon [img]smile.gif[/img]

Wellard: Fruit-picking was awesome! An adventure and a half! My buddies and I lived in tents for five weeks straight, it was pretty rugged, but fun. Made some decent money, got a good suntan, lost a few pounds, met some awesome folk. Had a great time all-told. There's alot to tell, and I've got lots of photos. When I (eventually) get them scanned I'll post them on Stealthy's. If you really want to hear about it I could post a new thread or something. How've you been anyway?

Aaron, how ya doing mate? Well ok dumb question since you already answered it, but it's customary to ask
sounds like the fruit-picking was worth it.

Heh yeah Mel, I remember that joke thread - has to THE best humour thread in my board history anyway *goes to save some of those jokes to comp*
*mourns Pandemonium*

[Melusine]

Awww Uncle Vasky [img]smile.gif[/img]
Those jokes were brilliant indeed. Like I said I was reading through them and got a great wave of nostalgic feeling washing over me
Would have loved to see the look on your face when you realised what I meant with the cobblestones joke. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

How the hell have YOU been, my fellow admin? [img]smile.gif[/img]

[Vaskez]

Wait a minute, are you implying I was slow to get the cobblestones joke? I got it right away I'll have you know! [img]tongue.gif[/img] But yeah the look on my face was half amusement half shock at what a rude girl you are hehe

I've been pretty well actually - no exams even though it's exam period, but I've got a lot of coursework instead - only 1 piece left to do this semester then I get errr... 1 weekend off - yay!
Still keeping up my martial art and enjoying it, and playing badminton and going to the gym - gotta keep the sport up. Also applying to do PhDs and it looks like I'll be accepted for at least one place (not that I need more than one ). So yeah, it's all good. How about you Mel?
