new years day
U2
All is quiet on New Year's Day,
A world in white gets underway,
And I want to be with you,
Be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.
Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white.
Arms entwined, the chosen few,
Newspapers say, it says it's true.
And we can break through,
though torn in two we can be one.
I will begin again, I will begin again.
Oh and maybe the time is right,
Oh maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.
And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage.
Though I want to be with you,
To be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's day.

Randoms things I have learnt in the past year :

1. Blogging is bloody addictive
2. Blogging is addictive because it is self-indulgent and oh, people get to like me (yay)
3. I am notorious for self-censorship
4. I can actually survive without shopping sprees
5. If you don't go on shopping sprees, a substantial amount of your income can actually pay for your children's education, fuel, water and electricity. You know, other stuff.
6. You can force your dreams to come true, so long as it doesn't involve Brad Pitt.
7. When you deal with clients adopt the "Bob the Builder philosophy". Anything they ask, say "Yes, We Can!"
8. Even if your husband wears his hair long, he will not resemble Anuar Zain. He will look like your husband with long hair.
9. My children do not have a future in comedy. Ilham does.
10. I do have courage.

And courage will see me though the next year. Welcome to 2005, everyone!
