It's less than 12 hours to the start of a new year. It's time to kiss 2010's ass goodbye and say hello to a fresh 2011. Everyone's so excited about a brand new year and a brand new start, but how sure can we be about the new year? Just 12 months ago everyone repeated the norms on new year's eve. Students start cramming, adults desperately start writing up resolutions and complaining about work after new year's day. Families painstakingly find the best dinner places around because they worry about where they can get the best view of the usually beautiful fireworks. To me, it's just another tradition. I'm tired of squeezing in the agonizing crowds just for a few minutes of coloured lights that look like bursting flowers. (Or broken crayons) Instead, I'm gonna do something different and reminisce about 2010 in this little corner of mine.
My top 5 moments of 2010
1) New year's day
On this day everyone does ALL of the above and I put this on the list because I wonder how traditions live.
2) 24th July 2010
I met Dyt for the first time in my life. I talked to him, gave him cookies I baked, and I blushed.
3) 22nd November 2010
An annual milestone I won't forget to put down. My Obama's birthday.
4) 9th - 20th December
12 days spent in a beautiful snowy place called Turkey. I'll miss you.
5) Christmas
This year's christmas saw more than 20 presents under my tree. God bless.
