僕たちのお正月 title=

皆さんはお正月をどうお過ごしですか?
僕たちは31日の夜にテレビの前でおやつ食べながら、ダウンタウンの笑っちゃ行けないやつを見た。11時半ぐらい家を出て、自転車で神社に。

    Just to be an English Nazi: Christmas reef = no such thing. You mean wreath. Reefs have more to do with rocks and coral in the ocean than X-Mas.

      "It's a losers' union," said Fumiyuki Nakanishi, a manager at SMBC Friend Securities. "Despite some cost cut impact, it's doubtful if they can beat their international rivals even as a team. The domestic chip industry appears on the brink of death."

      This is scrupulously prepared revenge as it was promised for them in Russia...

      They should be accurate in their hidden wishes and habits.

      "Mitsubishi Corporation LT Singapore Pte.Ltd." management, as well as some other Japanese Companies stuff, based in Singapore, are using ‘sometimes’ false or not exact identification documents: that allows them to use the copyrighted work of others without authorization by the copyright owner (or by a third party who is legally entitled to do so on behalf of the copyright owner) and is not otherwise permitted by law.
      So what? This is quite usual business event these days. “Not for attribution” – it is very convenient way for everyone. This allows clinging like grim death to any idea ‘for free’ – and “to run with the hare and hunt with the hounds” quietly. It should be followed by State institutions more carefully.

    My New Years was spent eating Kung Pao, spicy calamari, and drinking a lot of rum. Thereafter we all went to a friends house and started a massive fire (6ft high flames!!!), and people were chucking around sparklers.. that was before someone decided to throw a whole box in the fire.. Between the fire and the space heaters, we were fairly warm, and were feeling pretty good. Then we all played the "ask an odd question" game to see what everyone said. I now know things about my friends that I didnt want to know... ever. Then someone complained about being cold so we all went inside at 3am and fell asleep. Hooray!

    Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
    And never brought to mind?
    Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
    And auld lang syne?

    CHORUS:
    For auld lang syne, my dear,
    For auld lang syne,
    We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
    For auld lang syne!

    And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp,
    And surely I'll be mine,
    And we'll tak a cup o kindness yet,
    For auld lang syne!

    We twa hae run about the braes,
    And pou'd the gowans fine,
    But we've wander'd monie a weary fit,
    Sin auld lang syne.

    We twa hae paidl'd in the burn
    Frae morning sun till dine,
    But seas between us braid hae roar'd
    Sin auld lang syne.

    And there's a hand my trusty fiere,
    And gie's a hand o thine,
    And we'll tak a right guid-willie waught,
    For auld lang syne

    HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE! Dont screw this one up!! That goes for you Fat Bastard!

    Sounds like you had a better time than I did- I sat around and ate a bit and watched about 5 minutes of fireworks on TV that were going off at our closest major "major" city- Philadelphia. I worked on my models a lot and really didn't talk to my parents much- my sister had a party in the basement with 7 other peeps.

    Yes evil spirits exist- and there are good ones too. I found some of those traditions "odd", however there is a cultural difference here and I would totally respect rituals/customs that ring in the New Year in Japan. There is one thing I cannot do though when visiting a shring like this- I cannot offer a prayer or clap my hands. I understand the thought behind it and I think it is awesome-but I cannot do it for religious reasons- even if it means my arse gets booted from the area or I get mobbed. I don't mind watching others do it, though.

    This is something I have always wanted to do Danny- maybe next time I need to come to Japan for New Years! Looks a lot more fun than me sitting around. I had fun building my models though.

    "Despite the amount of people who gather at the shrines, the new year passes without incident."

    Lol. In France, there have been "only" 372 cars burnt, just to state the lowest estimation... But it is considered as a very quiet New Year Eve.
    But you see, France is very cold at this period of time so one need some fire to warm up ! Nah kidding, people do so either as a rebelion act, or for insurrance fraud or just for the tradition...

    In Singapore though, it was rather quiet as far as I know. Maybe because it is too hot ^^

    Anyway, happy new year to all !

    Isn't the 1st of January a public holiday in Japan? I'm asking since you mention working on new years, or did you work the day after?

    Spent a nice and hot new year on a farm out in the countryside around a bonfire watching the stars.

    Pardon me for being an English Nazi as well but "Depending on when you was born" should be "were" and "People who where in for a bad year" should be "were".

    I simply spend new year every year with a get together with friends, a countdown, champagne, and a tonne of mindless games on the Wii. Only places where people gather on new year in SA are clubs, which really aren't for me ~-~

    I have seen some festivals in japan now, tried to get them all but i never even did think about new years eve... might worth a shot.
    It seems better then geting drunk with friends and freezing my feet numb while watching some idiots burn their fingers. ^o^ Though lucky, this year i was (still am) stomatch sick, so hogging my computer with tea and zwieback (brussels biscuit?).

    Oh my talking about bad spirit/s...

    Last year when i was in a shrine at Kumamoto,Japan, i clapped 3 times in a roll as opposed to 2 when one is suppose to ring the bell to call forth the god (or something along that line).

    Right after my 3rd clap, i swore by saying sh** cause i suddenly realize i made a mistake in over-clapping. And then the fun began.

    Right after coming back from Japan, i got a whole streak of bad luck like 1) Well this happened over in Japan but was chased for a fine 15 mins by a bee near a river, 2) Fell down in a drain and got a deep cut, 3) Handphone went haywire and sent messages out by itself and 4) UV filter of loaned Eos 20D broke for no reason even though the lens was capped.

    Went straight to a Chinese temple over here and prayed. Since then not much of a bad luck. So a word of advisor, don't swear in shrines, regardless of languages.=x

    And a Happy New Year to you too danny!

    Only you could make me laugh when talking about the new year.

    Look like a dragon if you ask me, the videogames and accessories are for sale and the candies are the prizes, or is that you win empty boxes? lol.

    For the snake, I think a curled-up version would work, with the bell at the tip of the tail... Maybe?

    I went down to a shrine around new years a couple of years ago. It was a week after new years and there were still quite a few people. Pretty surprising. It was much the same as your pictures show, Danny, but I also remember seeing a big sign informing people of who will be suffering from yakidoshi (year of calamity) in the coming year. Always a few people looking at the thing with gloomy expressions on their faces. :p

    A Greek friend of mine pulled out a bottle of ouzo on New Years Eve. Now, that right there is some evil spirits, let me tell you.

    Honestly though, after the last day of Comiket, my energy got drained so much, that I did not feel like going to any shrine that day. However, I did go to Meiji Shrine, which in my opinion, was not worth it for the crowd.....

    Anyway, hope this year brings me good luck...

    "It's a losers' union," said Fumiyuki Nakanishi, a manager at SMBC Friend Securities. "Despite some cost cut impact, it's doubtful if they can beat their international rivals even as a team. The domestic chip industry appears on the brink of death."

    This is scrupulously prepared revenge as it was promised for them in Russia...

    They should be accurate in their hidden wishes and habits.
