The first decade of the 21st century ended the way it began when I first moved to New York City 8 or so years ago - with an epic snow storm.
Traffic was moving so slowly I was able to stand in the middle of the street in Times Square and take this photo of the snow as it started to finally accumulate on the ground. I was walking home from KTown after I fulfilled my KTown jjigae craving.
New York City woke up to a lot of snow the next morning.
Couple nights later I met up with Ro and Jeff (yes, he's still searching for new pants). After eating delicious noodle soup, we walked to KTown for a "surprise" birthday party.
A surprise birthday party at karaoke, natch. Disclaimer: I swear this was not organized or suggested by me.
Pro Tip: Passionate hand gestures makes any song better.
This girl was getting at it!
And if the singing is good enough, people will dance to it. Even go back to back wit it.
AND front to front wit it.
And then git paid afterwards!
This is what alcohol can do to people later in the evening.
Few days later it was New Year's Eve! I met up with friends on the Upper East Side for some food and drinks. After the clock stuck midnight, I went back to my apartment where one of my friends was having a party. By the time I remembered I had my camera it was pretty late, and the girls had changed in to their sweats.
Sweats don't mean the celebration has to stop tho!
And the dancing!
And peace in the new year.
And...intergalactic thug peace signs?
The New Year: clean out the old and start anew...including tossing out that computer from 1994. Raise your hand if you remember using these floppy discs at one point in your life.
