Happy 2008!
The New Year party was okay for me. I hung out with friends, and watched the countdown over at VivoCity. AND I didn’t get drunk, which is good. Heh. I actually didn’t have any plans to go there and celebrate, but since I haven’t really had the time before to spend some time with my friends and more importantly, my boyfriend, I went. And boy, did we have a good time. Hee.
So my boyfriend and I finally got together for a movie during my two-week mid-semester break. And I think American Gangster is one of the best movies I’ve seen. My boyfriend had been wanting to watch it, and since I think Denzel Washington is so damn fine, why not? Heh.
In not lighter news, my laptop has been stolen. I had it secured in a locker at the library, because I wanted to do a lot of research in the library but I wasn’t going to use the internet. Plus if you must know, it was a very heavy laptop, and carrying it while I run around the place in search of books is not ideal. So anyway, when I returned a few hours later, my laptop was gone. There was no sign of force entry on the locker door, so I’m still scratching my head over that. A police report has been made, so I’m crossing my fingers that my beloved laptop will be retrieved.
My aunt bought me a new laptop just yesterday afternoon, though. I’m really thankful for that. She told me to accept it as a “New Year gift”, LOL. I love my aunt.
Along with a new laptop, I got myself a new phone! Sony Ericsson W960i, baby! I had been staring at the model at every little phone store I passed by for the past month, haha. It is very much like an iPhone, only slightly cheaper, I think. Or is it more expensive?
Anyway, it’s bed time for me now. I’m going to end this post by saying that it sucks that I’m still undecided on my New Year resolution. What is yours?
Happy 2008, everyone!

First, let me wish you a happy new year!
I hope you do get your laptop back even though your aunt is so awesome she bought you one. I want an aunt like that! ;) Which laptop did you get?
My New Year’s resolution? I just made an entire post about yesterday, so I’ll spare you the list here. :)

Happy Belated New Year!! Sorry to hear that your laptop got stolen, but hey at least you got a new one and a new phone. :) That’s got to make any New Year start off nicely, hehe. I don’t have a New Year’s resolution that is different from any of the ones I’ve made in the past. Most of them are about living life to its fullest, studying harder, and spending more time with friends.

I still have yet to see American Gangster. But I have seen, I Am Legend, though, which was a great movie but I wasn’t too thrilled by the ending.
I’m sorry to hear about your laptop. I refuse to take mine anywhere outside of my house because of things like that. I’d be very upset if mine were stolen. Congrats on the new laptop, though. What kind of laptop is it? I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 but I want a MAC badly. Only time will tell if I decide to actually purchase one.
Happy Belated New Year! Glad to hear that you didn’t get drunk! My New Year’s resolution is to start catering to myself as opposed to catering to others all of the time. I just hope that I can be more kindhearted to myself.
I need a phone. I don’t carry cell phones around because I barely use phones as it is. Now I’m starting to realize it’s a necessity more than a want so I plan on purchasing one in the next couple of months.

Kate said,
I’m glad you enjoyed your New Year! I wanted to see American Gangster, too. Now I will have to watch it! Lol. I always say I want to watch a movie and never watch it until months later! =/
Sorry about your laptop! Hopefully it will be retrieved but at least your aunt bought you a new one!
I’m like you, my resolution is undecided because why make one if I know I’m not going to keep it? Anyways, take care hun! :)

Heyy, happy new year :)
And hope your laptop has been returned to you by now. If not, it just beggers belief as to why someone can stoop so low to steal something :S Anyway, glad your aunt got you a new one!! I think all of us are thinking we all had an aunt like that!

Elaine said,
Wow, I don’t know what I would do if my laptop were stolen… Now I’m paranoid! I really hope you find it, although your aunt is definitely awesome for buying you a new one. The phone looks pretty awesome, too. Happy New Year!
Becca (despair) said,
I want to see that movie. There is actually a lot of movies out or coming out that I really want to see. I hope you get your laptop back, but it’s great that your aunt bought you another one!
That is one sexy phone. I want one! :P
I actually don’t have any new years reselotions…but I have big plans…new job soon (I hope) getting married sometime this year. :)
Hope you have a great year!
Maria said,
That’s awfully nice of your aunt to get you a new laptop! I know that laptops nowadays aren’t that cheap so that’s completely awesome!
No resolutions for me; no need to get disappointed when I don’t do them, you know?
Kris said,
Happy New Year - glad you had a nice time on yours :) I just recently watched American Gangster and also thought it was really good.
Man, that’s crazy about your laptop, I would be angry and confused as well but koodos to your Aunt for buying you a new one! That’s pretty awesome :D
I want a new cell phone but my boy toy won’t allow me to spend my money on something like that since mine isn’t broken and I’m always spending money on random things heh. Guess I might have to PURPOSELY break mine lol :X
Arwen said,
Eek, that sucks about your laptop! Hopefully they find out who stole it… people can unfortunately find a LOT of personal information about you from your computer.
Bec said,
Loll, half way through January and I’m sad to say not even half of my NY’s res’ are maintained. XD
I’m sry to heat your laptop got stolen. Gosh.. What a loser, whoever did that. No worries, least you got a new one!
Gill said,
Ugh, I hate thieves. My friend had her purse stolen right from under her nose.
I have an iPhone, it was $399 + tax. How much was your phone?
Menelya said,
Aah I’m sorry to hear that your laptop got stolen, I hope you get it back. That’s really nice of your Aunt to buy you a new laptop. :)
Reilynn said,
It seems like you’re on the receiving end even after Christmas! I hope you have a great new year.
Nick said,
Happy New Year!
Thao said,
I swear those police reports do squat though. I’ve had my phone stolen and of course nothing happened. At least you have a cool aunt to give you a NYE gift!
Kayla said,
Happy New Year!
My resolution is to keep going to the gym.
Julie said,
Wow it really sucks that your laptop got stolen like that. Some people are just bad.
Cassidy said,
If my laptop was stolen, I do not think I would be taking it quite as well as you seem to have. I’m fairly certain that I would go ballistic. That’s cool that you got a new one so quickly though!
Mellissa said,
That phone’s really pretty! :) I’m looking for a new phone myself, but I haven’t found anything yet. Meh. Sorry to hear about your laptop being stolen, that sucks :(
Kaisa said,
Aww, sorry to hear your laptop was stolen! But, I was really nice of your aunt to buy you a new one. I wish I had an aunt like that :P
Ooh, that’s a pretty phone! I have a similar looking, also a Sony Ericsson, but just a bit older model, I think :)
Judy said,
My New Year’s Resolution is to excercise at least 30 minutes a day! Fun stuff haha.
Anyway, that phone is pretty snazzy… An I’m glad you got a new laptop, good things come out of bad experiences!
Sandra said,
I went to Marina Bay for the countdown, the crowd was… whoa! How was vivo?
Congrats on getting a new laptop and phone! I’m eyeing either an LG Chocolate or an LG Shine~
Lani said,
oh man, I’m sorry about your laptop, I hope something happens, its good that you got another onethough, that was so lucky =]
heh my new years resolution was not to make one, because I never keep it and then I get really annoyed with myself, and so far its been an alright year lol.
xstardamage said,
That’s brutal about your laptop! I don’t understand how people can steal. I could never take anything, let alone an expensive electronic like a laptop. You’re aunt is sweet though!
Ann said,
^ That was me. I don’t get what happened ? lol
Toya said,
I have decided not make any more New Years Resolutions because I never follow thru.
Louise said,
Happy New Year, first of all, and I’m sorry about your laptop getting stolen. Your aunt sounds so generous, buying you a new one and all. :)
As for my resolution, I haven’t even come up with one yet…and it’s already March 1st!
Pat said,
Well I’m really just trying to get a hold of you, lol. But as for new years resolutions… I don’t make any, haha. Mostly because I know I’ll never stick to them because I suck like that. And boo about the laptop. :(
Justin said,
Happy New Year! I guess it may be a bit late though. I haven’t seen American Gangster, but I’m glad you enjoyed it.
