pretty sure i'm gonna spend the new year alone maybe i'll buy some beer and drink taking a walk on the beach what about you anon ?

>>39345 Im going to make it. Always push forward. Don't let darkness swallow your heart. It is hard, but reward worth times more then soulles consoomption of "content", masturbation, and videogames.

Im also alone on new years but it nbd. It's just another day. I have a few friends IRL and even a SO but due to extenuating circumstances beyond my control for the time being i have to live half a world away for a while and still some more time yet. It kind of is like kicking dead whales down the beach but I'll manage. Atleast the weed here is cheap.

I spent the whole morning praying for noone to call me, my prays worked and noone called. I would call no to them if someone called but that would sour our friendship. I prefer the quiet and serenity over partying and crowds. I got a sewing project to usable state, finally compiled a kernel that has everything working(except the fking tp_smapi), read some man pages related to that, did some puzzles, drank A LOT of tea, listened to 2+ hours of podcasts and i plan to sleep around 11pm. Everything is going as i would want them to be.

I know this'll sound harsh especially for someone who is lonely, but don't be an alcoholic lainon, you're going to regret it.

I don't think OP meant that he's going to drink until he starts seeing shadows everywhere but yeah, take it easy mate. Only had half a shot glass so far and am not emptying the bottle any more. Instead went to the gym, watched some cartoons and worked on some specs. I'll probably continue my personal tradition of going outside to watch the fireworks for a quarter hour or so at midnight where it peaks while having a smoke. Blows that things drifted apart between other people due to the recent psyops, work and stuff. I suppose I'm not the only one like that but could be worse. Like imagine being extrovert with nothing to occupy yourself with in that situation. But if you're frequenting this site then that's likely not a problem so don't fret it too much and just try to enjoy the moment and serenity. And since we're at this topic, I suggest don't bother with new years resolutions either. While trying to build a habit you'll fail often. And this gives you an excuse to retry in another year. Instead just decide something to start doing today. Whenever that today might be. And just keep doing that and aiming for a somewhat permissible streak. But at least the gym's going to be less crammed again around february. That said, I wish you a good silvester's eve and a happy new year!

Having a barbecue with my gf, family and some relatives. It's nice but at the same time it's too crowded and it feels overwhelming for someone introverted like myself.

>>39358 Update: people can't stop talking really fuarrrking loud and listening to crap Brazilian funk. I'll just shut myself in my room. But even then, it's too loud.

just spent it totally alone like last year. only this time i actually have reached the zero on the number of friends. dropped out, still with parents, i often feel like god played a trick on me. some wandering what if... but a sense of deep resentment for what could have been is what i felt the most watching the fireworks from my small window. I am becoming more and more masochist. Why do i feel like i want to die on a cross? Anyways, i wish you the very best.

>>39360 You and anyone else reading this who's feeling the same this evening, just don't take these things too personally. We live through some very polarized times where divisions appear to only grow. As if it wasn't difficult enough to operate on a different wave length from most others. Don't give up too soon and don't do anything unwise to yourself. Dark storms may pass but bad decisions can stick for good. And hey, if hope dies, we still got spite. But use it to fuel your attempt to make it despite the odds, if you believe your situation is truly that dire. But you're probably smart enough to figure something out and there's probably more people who align with you than you think. Also don't linger too much in the past and what could've been. That might only hold you back from moving forward towards where you need to. Say, do you have a goal which gives you purpose? If not, now might be the right time to come up with one. Mine is to create but I've been struggling with that lately. Yet that keeps me going despite knowing how miserable many people would otherwise feel in my position. And hey, the fireworks were somewhat fun tonight, even if some of it went a bit dangerous. Another reason not to drink too much. Though tomorrow is a favorite day of mine. Where not many people are outside due to them sleeping off their buzz. Take care mate and happy new year!

I will most likely be asleep and cuddling my gf

hi lain. it's the new year and i'm extremely drunk, as usual. i don't have anything to say to you that you don't already know. we're all alone, but everyone's connected. in some way, i think we're all the same person. i'm lain, you're lain, and lain is lain, even though she's an anime character. i think we're all the same person living in different lives. so, if you love me, then i'll love you. and you'll love yourself. but if you hate me, then... you know how it goes. 2024. we're in the future. it's really here. let's give it our best shot, okay? there's nothing else to do, after all. i'll be seeing you soon, in your thoughts and in your memories.

I haven't done anything with a group of people for New Year's since 2008 going into 2009. I went to sleep not even an hour after midnight this year. I've just grown past it being this super ultra special occasion where I have the need to socialize, "party", and/or anything like that. I just watch the clock go from 11:59 to 12:00 and then it turns into a new day into a new year. I think about my birthday and turning another year older than I just get over it and focus on the night/day in front of me.

>>39366 It lifted my spirits to read this, on the presentest day of all present time. I think I'll live your life better for you this year, and I hope you live my life better for me, too.

>>39366 Good post lain, cheers to ours and everyone's better 2024.
