New Year

It is 28th December and this year is coming to an end. There is excitement in the air; people are out partying and what not. I don't understand what are they celebrating? This year will end, the next will start. Big deal. Is there real progress that has been made? Has the world changed? Have people around us evolved? Better question would be... Have we changed?


My second semester as a law student began in January 2013, since it was the second semester people had formed groups and there was a sense of (pseudo)belongingness. This feeling hasn't changed much. People at college still suck. I have just learned to suck it up. And luckily for me I am good at maintaining superficial relationships. That is how it is at my college. I talk to everyone, I am nice to everyone. Basically, I have a lot of 'friends'.


As for the so called society, people are still narrow-minded. It is all the same. Newspaper is still filled with numerous murders being committed, women being raped, children being kidnapped etc etc etc. How we survive through all this always seems to surprise me.


As for me, I have changed but not much. I have become a bit more cynical, less trusting, and more opinionated and an extreme sexist.


Wonder what this New Year will bring?


Will it be any different than 2013?


Anyway, I hope you all have an amazing year. I hope you all get what you want. I hope everyone ends up happy. (The cynic in me doubts that it will ever happen, but well!)
Enjoy anyway :)
