Every year, at around late December, after binging on all the food and booze, I always tell my self that the next year will be better, you know.... different. I always tell my self that I'll be more responsible and less childish and all that jazz. Well.... at around Feb or March, I find my self doing the exact same things I was doing the past year. So now, I won't list my Resolutions for the coming year 'cos there won't be any and it'll just be a load of cow pie and it'll just be like lying to myself. What I'm gonna do is just be myself and just go with the flow. It's not that I'm not trying to better myself, it's just that I don't like making promises and not be able to do them. Chill lang muna. But if I see something in me that has to be changed then I'll do my best to address that certain trait so I can be a better person not just for my sake but for the people I share my stark raving crazy little world with. The problem with the "New year's resolution kasi is that people only do it for the sake of doing it, for the sake of the damn tradition. I thinks it's stupid. I get the point that people want to change and start anew 'cos it's the new year pero, 'di ba nila kayang magbago pag hindi new year'? If that's the case, then alcoholics can't clean up their act 'til the next year pa? A burglar who had a sudden conscience attack during April will have to wait nine months 'till they can stop being poor excuses for human beings? That's just messed up. Anyway, this new year, I won't change anything 'cos I like what I do and who I am.........though I want to loose weight 'cos I feel like I ate a small country during the yuletide season but what the heck, I''l just find myself on a Happy Valley binge with my Older brother after a whole case of beer while watching the original version of GTO.
Happy New year friends! APIR!
