My millennium experienceThe build up to the
millennium was intense. Everyone
was making a huge deal about it. If
you turned on the television there was always something to be said about
what was going to happen. There
was talk about computers crashing,
airplanes falling out of the sky and “The Millennium bug”.
None of these expectations happened but I had a great time. I had had many ideas
about the way in which I would spend my Millennium these ranged from
going to Central London to spending the evening in Manchester with my
brother and sister celebrating in the street.
I finally chose where I was to go on the actual night of the
Millennium. I chose to go
to a house party a few miles away from my house. I arrived at the party
with my friends at around 7:00 p.m. and by 10:00 p.m. the atmosphere was
really livening up. There
was lots to drink and everyone was happy the build up was helped along
with banging music and a close by television showing what was going on
at the same time in other countries. Suddenly it was 11:50
and everyone was getting very drunk and very excited. We all rushed outside as the climax got closer.
Everyone grabbed the nearest drink and the count down begun 10,
9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. There were hugs and cheers, whistles and shouts it was
amazing. The atmosphere was
immense, everyone was full of joy and the Millennium had lived up to
it’s experience.
