December 31 - New Year's Eve

Went to my parent's house, a 200 kilometer drive. Got rather tired by driving that much. Went to parent's friends to celebrate New Year's Eve in the evening, which is a tradition. We played a game of TP, which our team miserably lost. Practised taking photos with my digital camera and made snippets of film.

The most eventful was that a box of crackers went havoc and started firing in all directions, so we had to run for cover. Whispered "Egon" under my breath as my tradition goes, just after the last strike of the bell, as I want it to be the first I utter of that brisk new year. This tradition is getting old and I told no one.
