...it's just another New Year's Eve
another night from all the rest,
it's just another New Year's Eve
we'll make it the best.....
What comes to my mind when it is New Year is that people would be joyful, well, like the rest of the year though, it has been more special in a sense that there are more bangs than it used to be. Fire works here and everywhere. Laughing there, foods here... It becomes more special.
I always remember the celebration as a child. I have never experienced a raucous New Year. It has never become a New Year full of surprises, full of lights and laughters, full of noise. I never tried to ignite a firecracker. It was so deafening silence. Dead. Peaceful. But i liked that serenity that my parents had taught me when I was still young. Firecrackers were so forbidden in the house, we never make noise except for he occasional laughs, and the simple food that we have.
When I think of New Year, there comes the usual resolution that people do to make their lives change. for whatever those are, I was so sure that they would come true, but that depends on the person if he or she really wants to change for the better. I never made those resolutions though, except for that perennial school theme writing that my English teachers, who made it to a point that we have something in mind for the new year, would be letting us to make. I was so stupid then to say things that are beyond my reach, I was so young then that I could think of things to change myself which are unimaginable. But that was before.
Life was so simple then. I woke up in the New Year morning and say a thank you prayer to my God, who understands me so much, because I am not that perfect individual. I would just say thank you for th blessings that I have continually receiving from Him, presents that not at all material. The gift of life, the gift of such good parents and siblings, and of friends. I am still young but I was thinking of those things already. I can not say that in my mind, I was already mature enough to think of those mature ideas. I had never become selfish.

It's just another new year's eve. Like the rest of the days. Until now, I am still alone celebrating this occasion. But i was used to celebrate this all by myself.
I do not have any more resolution. I do not believe in the resolution. I made mistakes and am trying to correct those mistakes which had happened in my life. i do not need to write anymore. i might forget where did I put that piece of paper. In my heart, I will do my part.
For New Year is just another year. Another chapter in the book called Life. Would it be exciting this year? Would it be drab? So many questions that as the pages would start to be turned, the questions can be answered. Life is mysterious. Like my character. Like me.
