2010

Not only a new year but we say goodbye to the last decade.

a wonderful decade to say the least, a lot has happened. I was 11 last time we turned into a new decade - the Millenium. I still remember the mania surrounding the change into the 2000's. It was foreign and odd but it felt strangely novel as if the world was about to undergo a huge fascinating makeover. needless to say, not much had changed as the clock hit midnight and we passed into a Y2K. No aliens or end of the world phenomenon nor did computers crash into abyss. Things seemed just like it did 1 second ago when we were still in 1999. But enough of the crazy millenium talk.

Hello 2010!!! New decade...New year...New beginnings. 10 years is a long time...who knows what the new decade and the new year will bring but i know there there is much to look forward to in the next 10 years. When I was 11, i thought about where i would be in the next 10-20 years...but it seemed so far away and intangible. From graduating post-secondary to establishing my teaching career to getting married and having children of my own to moving to another country...the adventures and possibilities are endless. Those dreams don't seem so far away afterall!


P.S. I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday. I wish everyone happiness in the new year.
