New Year's Eve always depresses me. Like, for one, I find "Auld Lang Syne" to be one of the saddest songs out there. I swear, there are few versions I can hear that don't make me cry. I fucking cried to the instrumental, electronic version on Animal Crossing one year. Add on to that that the sound of fireworks is one of my favorite sounds and it just makes me a sappy mess. Well, I should amend that to say the sound of fireworks in the distance is one of my favorite sounds. I can't explain it, but I've always found it comforting.
Anyways, yeah, I tend to get emotional on New Year's. Not, like, "I'M SO SAD!!!" emotional, but just. . .emotional? Heh, I don't know how to explain it.
Anyways, I think watching these clips on YouTube is just giving me unrealistic expectations. Which is stupid, I'm 23. It's still so weird to think that my parents were already married by my age. Hell, by my age, they'd already been married a year.
Anyways, my hope is that it'll be different once I'm out of NCSA. I guess what I'm mostly scared of in terms of graduation is having to start all over again. I don't make friends easily and losing that group (Since it seems like most are going to LA which, eh, not my cup of tea) is going to be tough. Hopefully it'll be okay.
