New Year...New Dawn.....





Hey Y'all...

Okay,first of all apologies for not posting since last year. I was on holiday all summer long and just got back. It's so weird how towards the end of the year you lose all sense of motivation and drive and just want the year to end,and at the start of the year,everything is rejuvenated and goals and ambitions start leave the dusty back burner and attended to with the same zeal and determination...if only it lasted the whole 365 days! *sigh*...

it's like when you go to Church on a Sunday and you say to yourself,'I ain't never sinning again...Lord take me higher..' and you end up breaking one of the commandments less than 24 hours after the sermon...


Or when you watch a documentary about war ravaged countries and make a pledge to help the poor orphan kids....but never do...


Or when you decide to make this year the year you volunteer a year of your life to helping build schools in Chile...but find out all the good festivals are on when you're gone,hmm helping the poor or seeing Sigur Ros LIVE Dude!! Besides,I already bought the tickets...


Or you finally decide to move up out of your folks home and get a place of your own...But after spending your whole pay last Friday night on 3 exchange students from Norway and ended up spending your savings on a goat in Lithuania because it looked cute in the picture...

***Note: Shout out to those who ACTUALLY moved out this year***


Or when you read and hear about the recession and global financial meltdown and say 'today is the day Ima start saving'...and end up paying for a mini-holiday because it was on sale online...


...Or,and this one is for the ladies...while flipping through a Fashion magazine and happen to spot a picture of a fantastically airbrushed post-pregnancy Halle Berry in something resembling a bikini (By resembling,not quite a bikini as the average woman wouldn't be able to wear it because of a shortage of fabric) and can't believe a 40+ year old body looks better than your own 22 year old one..and decide after the last quarter of a tub of choc chip flavoured ice-cream,you'll start the diet of your life so help you God...but it lasts for 3 days??I swear I was doing well,but I was out for lunch and you know how it is,besides,I'll start anew tomorrow ;)..with me ladies?


Or is just me?...hmm

*sigh* Oh Well.

There's always next year.

Don't fret the small stuff.

Word.


Well,moving along,I have decided to enrich this blog-make it more exciting,mix serious stuff with a dose of humor,and a new element I discovered while holidaying showcasing the photo of the week. Anything random,interesting,thought provoking and entertaining.

So,what say you? With me...

Good.

Okay,so at the start of every year,instead of making (Re)solutions, I try and work out the lessons or solutions learned from my journey over the last 365 (or 366 in last year's case).

As soon as it's modified,I'll put up the list but feel free to comment.

**The more you know**

Sentence of the week: Aesthetically Belligerent.
