Happy New Year!!!

Happy new year! 2012 has finally come, which means absolutely nothing really! I’m not sure why people make a big day out of it to be honest. I mean, the only significant aspect of the “Holiday” is switching out calendars, and trying to remember the new date when signing checks. Other than that, there’s absolutely nothing special about the day.

Well, except this year of course. Since, apparently, this is the final year mankind will exist! It’s the end of the world, and we’re all going to die, and this time, it’s true! All the other doomsdays? Those were just practice runs! Clearly, this is it ladies and gentleman! Why? It was predicted, that’s why!

I of course am being sarcastic. I do not think the world will end. Not this year anyway.

However, many people will tell you that it is. Of course, there is a good chance these people could be paranoid, and/or crazy.

Remember, this isn’t the first time people have cried doomsday. In fact, it just recently happened with the Rapture. It seems like it happens every year as a matter of fact. Most famously with the Y2K scare.

Anyway, the whole point of this post was to wish you a happy new year, if you celebrate it. So, Happy new year!

The other night I found myself channel surfing, and flipping through pointless channel after channel. After awhile, I paused on QVC as I occasionally do when all the infomercials are lame, and there’s absolutely nothing on TV.

I watched it for a little bit, and the host, whose name I obviously don’t know, was talking about New Years, and she mentioned that “Everyone makes New Years Resolutions, even if they are unwilling to admit it”.

As far as I am concerned, that’s a load of zebra manure! I can’t speak for everyone, though apparently she can. However, I can speak for myself, and fact of the matter is; I do not make new years resolutions, in fact! I don’t celebrate New Years at all. I don’t watch the ball drop, I don’t run out at the stroke of midnight whooping and hollering like a madman. I don’t do anything like that.

Seriously though, what’s the point in celebrating? All a new year signifies is you are a little older, and that much closer to the grave. It also means a brand new year of increased taxes and price hikes and several disasters somewhere in the world.

So depressing.

Anyway, enough about me ranting, the point of this post was that I don’t make resolutions. Now, if the QVC host had said that everyone has made a resolution at some point in their life, then maybe! I did, when I was younger, make resolutions. Of course, to be fair, this was when I was 6 or 7. I am not even sure if they could really even be considered resolutions, since at that age, I didn’t fully grasp the point of resolutions. I used to think that a New Years resolution, was basically just a wish, that would come true. Kind of like when you blow the candle out on your birthday cake.

So, I ended up with resolutions of joining the Hall of Justice, and earning 100 dollars so I could be a millionaire, and of course the most important resolution of all: To join G.I. Joe. In fact, I even had a code name picked out for me. It was a truly kick-ass Codename that would rival even “Snake-Eyes“. My Codename; The Kid.

Clever huh? It suited me too, because at the time I was a kid. I don’t know what my specialty would have been, since clearly I didn’t think that far ahead.

Happy 2010!

Happy New year everyone! Hope everyones 2010 was better than their 2009, and remember! Today marks the day that everyone starts trying to break those pesky resolutions! Good luck! 😀
