happy new year folks...it's been a wild ride so far

Unlike something which is hard to believe, I experienced some really unusual turn of events right after 2007 ended. A new year countdown was far from uncommon, but getting really 'influenced' and proceeding to puke in my fren's car on the way back was new, a really bad experience, but still was something of a milestone for a college student.

Check that, I'm fully on my way to enjoy my 23rd year of existance.

Besides the usual loads of free time followed by a sudden influx of assignments/reports/industry training headaches, my peace was short-lived. As I found myself in the middle of a tempest, a fight between my two frens, one of which is my roomate.
Both parties are stubborn and refuse to give in, and I found myself in another arguement central. Things has since calmed down considerably but they are from settled. Another spark will reignite the situation, and what will I do then? Who knows?

Then today itself, not very long after things have just barely set in place, the very same fren in whose car I emptied my stomach on lost his farther. It was a shock to all of us, with no prior signs. Perhaps the poor guy is just keeping things to himself all the time, may he survive this ordeal. Bless his dad's soul.
