07's almost gone

Saying good-bye to 2007.
I don't wanna do the "cash up", I think you've read it along the year you might have an idea of what I went through during this year. But I can tell you about how these last couple of weeks went, and I should say OK-towards bottom.
It's been incredibly, absurdly hot, you feel as if you'll pass out at any second and you do anything to stay indoors (with an AC if possible). However, as staying indoors is not an option I started to get a lot of buses because it was too fucking unbearable to do my normal walking. As a result, I've been putting on the undesirable weight that took me months and hundreds of hours of walking and sweat to lose. I'm eating more as well, so you do the math. I can't let it happen but there's no way I can walk the way I used to in this fucking summer, and I'm too afraid of walking home from downtown at 10pm. I guess two summers in a row haven't made me good...

Then Xmas came along. I'd forgotten how miserable it was to spend it as a family but the moment I walked in my granparents' apartment it all came back very vividly. What a nightmare, the complaints never stop, never... No booze is allowed in the house and watching "Missa do Galo" was definitely the little cherry on top.
So I promissed to myself never put up with this again. I don't need to. So, for New Year's Eve, as I'm still not in the new apartment (that shithead needed 30 days to move out...) and mom's trip was a joke, I'm staying home alone, at least for a few hours, and try to welcome the new year the way I want to. Well, the way I want to might not happen exactly like I want to, but I'll try.

I don't know what to expect from 2008; staying alive, I guess, and paying the bills, I guess. Having some fun would be nice, too, but that would be asking for too much, right?
I honestly just wanted to have money and time to travel for a long weekend next year. That's all.
And of course, to keep the same job for more than 18 months.
