Happy New Year!

Akemashite Omedetou! Happy New Year! The year 2005 started 14 hours earlier in Japan than in Indiana, and it began beautifully. At 11:55p snnw started falling down, and by midnight we had a nice little flurry. My friends and I stood among the crowds on Shijo Street and sang lalala to the tune of Old Lang Syne while catching snowflakes on our tongues. Then we went and karaoked until our throats were hoarse and the first train was about to leave in the morning. Yay for friends and New Year's in Japan!
