New year -- reminds us of fireworks, crowds, traffic congestions, get-togethers with friends and family and of course not to mention.. yelling 3, 2, 1, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I did not have any of those mentioned above. Stayed at home without dinner but thankfully I had my trustworthy computer and a not-so-trustworthy internet connection. It was a rather lonely and pathetic new year. =D Yeah, I'd admit that I'm friendless.. =.="
Forgot about one thing, it is not a new year without a new year resolution. Do you have one (or more)? How many resolutions do people usually make? Let's see if I can even get 10..
- Get a life
- Get a better life
- Get a great life
- ...
- ...
- ...
- ...
- ...
- Be more decisive
- Okay, save enough for a backpack trip.. to anywhere.
Yeah, I got 10!!
Okay, I am cheating.. So, I just got 2. Guess that should be more than enough. Yeah, I know I am leading a no-life life. From time to time, I'd feel that I am living in my own world. The door to the outside world is too narrow for people around me to come in and for me to go out. Even people came *knock knock knock*, I'd just shoo them away.. well, literally. This paragraph will drive them mad if they happen to read this. ^^
Looking back to 2007, other than being unemployed for almost 3 months, my life doesn't seem to be any different from the year before. I don't want to say "I want my 2008 to be extraordinary!" as I know I do not have the courage to do so. Therefore, I need to be more decisive (updated point number 9 of my resolution list). 2007 was not a smooth year for me even though I was supposed to "rule the world" that year (meaning it was the year of pig). I had problems with work and relationship was the worst one. Got into a lot or argument, got very bad-tempered most of the time, easily losing my patience and as Michelle said, I am depressed.
She is a best friend. We got into arguments, a lot of arguments in a very short period. Cried a lot during those moment. We used to be very close but after getting over those stupid arguments, we rarely talk to and see each other, apart from occasional MSN conversations. Gradually, I think things are getting much more better now. She IS still my best friend. Other than almost losing a best friend, I am very grateful to someone for being there when I was getting extremely unreasonable and difficult, for sparing hours of their time listening to my craps, worried about me and babysitted me.
I guess this should be enough for today. Getting a bit tired after going around with my parent discussing about the new house for almost half a day. Let me present you a song by ABBA with the title Happy New Year.. So, Goodbye 2007 and Hello 2008!
Happy New Year
by ABBA
No more champagne and the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party and the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday, now's the time for us to say...
Happy new year, Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year, Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Sometimes I see how the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives in the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool and he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on (hoo-hoo), feet of clay (hoo-hoo)
Never knowing he's astray keeps on going anyway
Happy new year, Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year, Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You...And I
Seems to me now that the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade in another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find what lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine
Happy new year, Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year, Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You...And I
