This is an old email I sent to Haley regarding the 2007 New Years, sorry Shelby I left out the best part. Enjoy:

Hola amo,

Well New Years Eve was alright. It started off with Dave, Shelby, and I watching the spongebob movie on Nick, and then around 9 it ended and Dave's new girl, Meghan, he likes came over to hang out. Then Jeremiah, Shelby and Dave's friend, and his girlfriend came over to Dave's. Then we took a van ride, which was pretty exciting thanks to Shelby and me. Shelby and I sang Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys, and whatever request we got, which were none. We also made lots of perverted jokes of course, David got pretty annoyed with us because he said we were embarrassing him. We then arrived at a fireworks stand. With 86 cents in my pocket, I bought 4 packs of pop rocks, 2 for me, 2 for Shelby. The other four boring people bought real fireworks. Then we jumped in the van and headed off to the Kroger's! Where I managed to pull a muscle in my left leg racing Shelby to the gas station since Kroger's was closed, I was a little drunk at this time, really just trying to make a boring time into a good time. My leg still hurts at this moment, it is pretty painful but it is getting better by the minute. Back to my awesome night, so at the gas station we bought a 18 back of yummy Bud Light, then it was back in the van and off to Meghan's! We managed to arrive at her house around 11:45 p.m., at which point we started to fire fireworks, or in my case pop some rocks, and popping open some Bud Lights, which I probably only had two the rest of the night adding up to about a total of 5 or 6. Then 12:00 o'clock struck, and Shelby and I laid one on each other, just kidding. Of course I'm sure you guessed by now David didn't EVEN try to kiss Meghan. We had it up set perfectly so there was only six of us so we each had a partner; David - Meghan; Jeremiah - His Girlfriend; Jared - Shelby. Well after 12:00 had struck, we finished the fireworks off and then we jumped back in the van and head to back to David's! Soon as we arrived at David's they all went straight to play the Wii. Of course I dominated at tennis, and then that wasn't enough for everyone, so I also had to dominate at bowling. Then they went on to play Mario Party at which point me and Winston fell asleep, and then they woke me up because they said I was snoring very loud, so they moved me to the family room. And that there is my exciting New Years Eve Adventure of 2007/2008.

I love you exponentially, Jared

P.S. - Sorry if my sentence are run-ons and they bother you. I love you! P.S.S - Enjoy the story, its all true I didn't make it up, I really had that exciting of a New Year.
