It's the final countdown! Facebook and Instagram attempt their own versions at imposing sentimentality through providing you with a year in review of all of your pics and "biggest moments." I appreciate the effort, however, they don't do it for me like the song "Auld Lang Syne," which evokes such immobilizing nostalgia and brings forth that undeniable sorrow that is heartbreak and final farewells. Masochistically, I love this song. This NYE, I will be missing my friends with whom I have shared so many wonderful countdowns. To damper this wistful melancholy, I'll toss some SATC into the mix. I love this New Year's Eve scene from the movie (set to, of course, "Auld Lang Syne," by Mairi Campbell).
I am privileged to have friends as great as these. I love and miss you all!
