Not to anyone in particular, but to 2008. 2008 to me has been a roller coaster ride of sorts. The highlight of course is when I got my Aussie PR.
I had a laugh when I read SMH this morning about all the funny, strange stories that made some headlines this year. I shall share them here.
1) What item helped a British family doused a fire in their home?
Ans: giant-sized knickers
2) A heavily pregnant Chinese mother who was trapped on a crowded bus during freezing weather named her son 'Born in a Crowd'
3) How did an American man try to get out from going to work?
Ans: He had a friend shoot him in the shoulder
4) What did a mayor of a French village do to solve the problems of overcrowding at the cemetery?
Ans: he told villagers that they are not allowed to die
5) An American couple has called their son Adolf Hitler Campbell. What was the name of one of his younger sisters?
Ans: JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell
6) A young Chinese woman partially lost her hearing after...a passionate kiss with her boyfriend
7) A survey stated that Italian shoplifters liked to steal Parmesan cheese from supermarkets
8) A man's Virgin Mary tattoo has fetched 150,000euro at a Germany gallery
9) A yellow Labrador dog ran for mayor in the United States
10) How did an Irishman have his eyesight restored after an explosion blinded him?
Ans: Doctors inserted his son's tooth in his eye. (wow)
Well since we are saying good bye to 2008 and saying hello to 2009, we have got to make some resolutions, don't we? Clinche but I am a fervent believer of saying stuff out loud in hope that it will somehow come true.
Well, just as Oogway said to Shifu about Po, you just need to believe. And I will believe, that in 2009, I will get to the goal I have set today, the last day of 2008.
But I won't tell you what my resolution is, cos I dun feel like telling you about it.
I am in a funny mood today, aren't I?
Anyway, have yourself a good New Year's Eve and be safe.
Ciao.
