Happy New Year Everyone

Just a few hours more and we are already celebrating the birth of a new year here in our country. One of the exciting scenes here in the new year are the injuries cause by fire crackers which are being featured on the TV news. As of now, some early patients are already visiting the nearest hospitals to get their stitches and some for their fingers to be cut off.

Aside from the fire works excitement, one of the highlight of every new year celebration is the food being prepared by every family. As of now I just have finished dinner and I m still planning to eat a little bit more this midnight. I better eat now coz I m planning to trim down on my diet this coming 2009. Food is great but still we have to bear in mind that overeating is also not good for ourselves.

Another thing that happens every 12 mn of January 1 is the noise being generated by the whole neighborhood. Aside from the fireworks, the "torotots", we also have the "calderos" and vehicle horns which could add the noise believe to drive out evil spirits for the coming year.

Finally every year lots of predictions are being made. These predictions are usually focused on important people on the different aspects of their lives. As for me, I really don't believe in predictions, for now lets just all celebrate a very very happy new year and hopefully this will be a good start for everyone of us. May you all have a happy and prosperous New Year.
