The last day. Albeit not succumbing to the traditional make-resolutions-and-reflect rituals, the fact that 2008 is coming to a close frankly still leaves me a lot to think about. The nitty-grittys of 'what I've done, what I haven't done' aside, I think the one question I have yet to deal with is this; 'what now?' So the end always marks a new beginning, but every beginning is sui generis (with the fundamental causation being its implications from the former end). It's interesting how we see a journey as the period from beginning till the end when in fact the strongest influence lies between the end and the next beginning. The crossroads, perhaps, and what we are at now. Yet strangely the lack of any significant change through the year's starting to irk me. Not just the banal humdrums of school life but just the seemingly non-existent effort put in to mark anything significant under the title of 2008 on the milestones of my life. It's not a wasted year I guess, simply floating along the lines of the conventional courses isn't all that bad. Just isn't interesting, I suppose.

Hopefully 09 will change that.

Memories they're following me like a shadow now
And I'm dreaming
And I've already suffered the fever of disbelief

I've seen your act
And I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were
It ain't hard to see
Who you are underneath
I'm still in love with who I wish you were
And I wish you were here

I think its my fault being blithely unaware of the ticking clock as I waste my life away - I just remembered a few months ago how I wanted to hear the full version of White Horse by Taylor Swift. And hence the sudden realisation that a few months has passed since then and that her album's has actually been released already. For quite some time.

So much for the random revelation of the day.

It's December!
