Goodbye, strange year..

It isn't the best of years, nor is it the worst. But somehow, I feel burdened to leave this year behind, eventhough nothing about it significantly holds my memory..my heart feels heavy thinking about the '09 turning into '10. What feels even worse though, is not being able to share the last day of this year with my family. I'm here, in a sorry excuse of a room, in the slums of a hostel, 300km away from home.

How come everyone else is so ecstatic about the new year? I'll bet they have something to look forward to.

Ending on a lighter note, happy new year readers!

Random thought of the day:

My dearest Emily.. why so forlorn? Why, it is the turn of the decade! Although I frankly never share any special sentiments for new years. But still.. a new day is always a great reason to celebrate. Another sunrise, another squeeze out of the colgate tube, another breakfast, another newspaper copy, another piece of chocolate, another handshake, another smile from a stranger, another painful day at school/uni, another cool shower, another aimless walk in the park, another yawn, another laugh, another tear, another blog post, another nosy old friend, another irritating unnecessarily long blog comment. See, not so bad if you edit the last part right?

Brighten up :D We all know you're not half as miserable inside as you make yourself sound.

Happy New Year Em
