Happy New Year?
I dont believe that dates carry anything special with them - Jan 1, May 19, Oct 21 - how does it matter? I have even had occasions where I forgot it was my birthday! But, I 'hoped upon hope hopen' that 2006 start auspiciously - cos 2005 sucked truly! Unfortunately, havent got any signs that it is going to be different this year - infact Jan 1 2006 was quite a nightmare.
I spent New Year's eve and mid-night in a super-dooper crowded Esplanade. The fireworks were brilliant and I felt good that finally I used my camera's photo-video capacities, but still dont have the accessories to upload onto the computer. I was with my family; considering how rarely we have been together over the last few years, this should have been a good thing. But, I was surprisingly disappointed that I was not in Ireland waiting for the Break Night of the WUDC. Ofcourse, better debaters than me who represented NTU did not break as I found out later! Only makes it worse.
2005 was bad - no, I did not lose a limb, or all my earthly property to a fire, or get embroiled in a civil war situation. But, this was the year when I lost my confidence and self-esteem repeatedly (and am yet to find it fully!).
I am leaving rest of my rambling to myself.
Will upload photos and videos once I 'ave the equipment.
