New Year's 2006-Good Omens

Well I feel like the days seem to blend together here to a certain degree and it didn't really register that it was New Year's Eve until the afternoon. I was busy that day running around getting things for my apartment, and then I met up with some friends that I met through my language class. They are working in a different city with a Christian organization to help the native hill-tribe people. Anyway, they had moved about 3 weeks earlier, so it was fun to see them again, and then we went to go see The Cronicles of Narnia which I totally loved, and reminds me of my own processes- facing my fears and getting in touch with my raw lion energy-grrr- i'm a leo the lion- yet I've always identified more with my libra moon (yes, I am into astrology). Anyway, it is my intention to get in touch with that very authentic, real, raw, strong, creative, shining my light, leo the lion energy. So I took the movie as a very good omen and a perfect way to start my New Year's Eve.
I then went to a roof-top bar here and met up with some other friends and had a pretty fun, chill night. We drank, watched the fireworks, I called some people at midnight, which was 9 a.m. on the west coast (wierd, ehh?), and I danced a little bit, talked to a few guys, no one really grabbed my attention.
Everyone was ready to leave at 1:30 a.m. and that is kinda of early, but I figured that i had broken my bad New Year's Eve streak (my last 3 have been quite bad). Anyway, as I was leaving, I saw this guy who I had noticed the previous day at a restaurant, and he motioned me to come over. I was in the process of leaving, so I just kept walking out, and turned to look at him one last time, and he stuck his tongue out at me. Down stairs I was putting on my shoes to go, when it dawned on me, "What am I doing? I need to go talk to that guy!"
Anyway, meeting this guy was my second really good omen for 2006! We talked all night, and he was super funny, sarcastic, sensitive, cute, respectful, all of the above. We had a lot in common, and he kept reading me, guessing things pretty right on about me, and he would do these great impersenations of me! We laughed a lot, and also had some deep conversation. I feel like my heart has been closed for the last while, and although we went our separate ways, I think it was just one of those moments that you know is impermanent, but that also changes your world, and changes your life path just a couple degrees. I didn't even think of getting his contact info cause he is soon going back to the US, and I've had a couple similar experiences, and you try and keep in touch, but that quickly fades away as you both get busy with your separate lives. But I really regretted that afterwards, o well, life goes on. So meagan is still single and enjoying life that way.... I feel like I still have a little work to do, but it will be nice when I'm ready, and so is he. I guess this guy just gave me faith that men like him exist; I was really starting to doubt it. I feel like people love me, love telling me their problems, I don't always understand it or get it, but it often leaves me with this invisible feeling like people can only see me to tell me all about themselves, at least that has been my experience in Thailand. Anyway, astrologically (i always take astrology with a grain of salt, but it is just interesting!) he was a leo (another omen that I am getting in touch with my leo-ness) with a moon in Libra and libra rising just like me, no wonder we got along! Thank you Alexander, wherever you are! :)
