So you're not fond of new year celebrations, then Luisa ... ?

I love to celebrate new year limey. It is just that in the Philippines, the people somehow have a knack for turning what should be a wonderfully happy celebration into a sad, tragic event. And that happens every new year's eve here.

What I would love to try is celebrating a quiet new year. One that does not require me to check the fire alerts every 15 minutes nor to hide under the table because you never know what is flying through the air and hitting your GI Sheet roofing. I would also like to remain in my seat instead of jumping out everytime a fire cracker rocks the house to its foundations.

As far as I am concerned, the perfect New year celeb would include, lots of food, drinks, music and good friends and family all around.

Hmmm... sounds like Detroit.

I'll be staying in with Pete and a bottle of Glenkinchie. That'll do.
