hey, it's new year. so, welcome 2007! since it's typical to make new year resolutions, i'm not doing it. as i've been making those resolutions which i have obviously failed to accomplish. it's a sort of mission impossible. i'm not listening to "if there's a wiil, there's a way". i want to lose weight badly. but i love to eat. even though i carry out 30-mins of physical exercise almost every day, i am still fat, fat, fat and weak. whatever. i try to be positive and believe in myself. yet, whenever i look myself in the mirror, all those negative stuff come out of my lips. i try not to be a spendthrift but i cannot resist to eye on dresses, shoes, pants, bags and disney stuff which i will eventually buy. thank God that my mum'll sponsor me those dresses that she thinks decent and appropriate for a tudong girl and bags which she can share with me. so, am i going to make new resolutions? well, i plan to recycle my old ones and find the reason why i fail to achieve them. then, try to accomplish. it's easy to say but not doing it. what am i supposed to expect from this new year? world peace? impossible. saddam is gone. bush is jumping for joy. but who's going to settle the bloodshed in iraq? there is fear that the situation will go from bad to worst. it is expected though. the country has nobody in control so people there will tend to fight among themselves to control the country. while those people who start this mess are watching in glee as they witness the downfall of a rich-in-oil country. bombs, weapons are killing everyone. i don't know for the rest but i disagree on the hanging of saddam on the day of AidilAdha, which is a sacred day for the muslims in remembrance of Prophet Ibrahim and his son, Prophet Ismail. we've to respect our fellow muslims who are performing the Haj in Holyland Mecca. it is the day of sacrificial. but not a day for the world to witness the hanging of saddam. to me, those people who made the date seem to mock the muslims as if making fun of the sacred day. obviously, they're spitting on saddam's face but why must it be on that day of all days? i am talking about respect. respect is the key to peace. but people fail to seize that key. look at palestian. for how long should the people suffer under the israel occupation? for how long should the innocents get killed every day? when will these torturings, killings, bombings put to at end? where is the united nation which supposed to solve the problems? where are those proud rich people who are supposed to help the poor? where are all the funds which are supposed to help the tsunami victims? it's been two freaking years yet it seems like nothing is done. for how long should innocent fetus or infants get killed just because of their irresponsible parents? rate of abortions and abandon of babies is increasing. campaigns for safe sex and think-before-you-do-sex are everywhere. yet, the situation is worsened. for how long should those endangered species and the animal kingdoms suffer in fear of extinction? global warming is over the limit. studies have shown that the world's temperature might increase by 4 degree celcius. ice is melting. sea level is inceasing. the hole is getting bigger. blah, blah, blah. questions with no answers and thoughts keep popping in my mind. but i am wondering. is the doomsday nearing?
