Le New Year

It's been a very strange evening last night/this morning. We went over the road to the house of Lily and Zak's friends (one of whom likes Lily XD). Within about 20 minutes of having gotten there, I had already had to explain why there was no singing in dance music to Lily's paramore. Also, when a boy of around 16 walked past - and I had never seen him before in my life - Lily whispered to me, in a kind of resigned way,
"You're not going to marry him are you?" I wasn't entirely sure how to answer. I spent most of the evening walking from room to room, eating small chocolate orange thingies, beating small children at air hockey and the like. I spent a while watching some friends of the host family playing singstar. To be honest, all I can say about that is that I never want to hear I'm a Barbie Girl ever again.
After midnight and the usual 'HAPPY NEW YEAR! WOOO!!' stuff, I had a little go at it myself, and I think that although I won't be giving up my day job (when I get one) I can, at the very least, talk in tune with Friday I'm In Love and Rule The World. What an achievement to start 2010 with. Oh, and my drunk dad telling me whenever I was in the room how 'young gentlemen' (I don't think you can get those nowadays. I don't think you could get young gentlemen for the past 100 years or so) would lay down their lives for me. I have a reputation for being unpredictable enough to end lives instead of inspiring chivalrous suicide missions for my fair hand in marriage.
