It's Jan 1 2009. The last week was a really busy week, and I don't mean from a work standpoint. In fact, I've realised that I'm the most distracted person in the month of December and going forward I shall always make sure I take my leaves in the last two weeks of December! That is probably my New Years Resolution!
So Christmas was spent at home, Christmas eve however was spent getting drunk on wine with some friends. That was interesting. I've never really gotten drunk on wine. It's definitely not the same thing as getting drunk on beer. I'm still trying to figure out which one leaves me with a worse hangover. It's a hard decision, somebody needs to run a poll on this! In fact, why haven't there been studies on which drink leaves you with the worst hangover? Or have there and I just don't know about it? If there has been, somebody should've informed me a long time ago. These are things that people need to know!
I then spent the last weekend of December 2008 in Panchgini / Mahableshwar (spelling??). My advice to everyone out there, no matter how old you are, man or woman, buy / rent a bike and take a road trip. A nice long road trip. In my opinion, nothing better to clear the head and to make you feel like your living. Trust me between the numb hands, snot flying from your nose, tears streaming down your eyes, you humming "life is a highway.. I wanna ride it all night long" and the sore ass from five hours of riding, you'll know you are alive! In your face Descartes!
Well, it's finally 2009 and this years New Years eve was definitely better than last years. I didn't get too drunk, but I was drunk enough...
In fact I was also drunk on the eve to New Years eve, went for a BBQ. The crazy part was I was the oldest person there! All the women were 19 or 20, and the next oldest person was 24. Yep, definitely an interesting feeling being the old man in a crowd. By the way, stay away from a drink called FENNY! It's evil! No, wait! It's beyond evil! Satan wouldn't want to have anything to do with it!
All in all I think 2008 was a pretty cool year. Added some moments to my top 3 moments ever. Definitely feel like I've grown up a little (very very little!), but it's still progress.
Now, we find out what 2009 has in store for me. I wish to leave you with a few words:
"Maybe I just want to fly
I want to live I don't want to die
Maybe I just want to breath"
Happy New Year!

Fenny is a nice drink!!
Wats wrong wit it ??
Happy New Year to u Zaev !!
1. Worst hangover: Champagne, white wine, gin - in that order.
2. Feni (note spelling) is not that bad providing it's cashewnut feni and not palm - which smells. You didn't know about it becos you didnt ask!
3. Mahableshwar spelling is correct which is surprising since a multitude of others aren't!!!
4. It's a major truth in life that below the age of 25, time seems to crawl; after 25 it starts to speed past at the rate of knots. By the time you cross 50, you never seem to have enough time left!
5. Since 65% of India's population is between the ages of 15 and 29, you'll find that more and more people are going to be younger than you, because there are more and more people who are younger.
