Friday, 7 December, 2012.
It's been a month since I triumphantly declared the beginning of the end. The end of a frenzy 9 months. Like an ending scene extracted from a novel turned movie- whose prologue has been punctuated by numerous highs and lows, where contradiction and irony were never far away, and where love lost was never found, yet when blended together, like a cacophony of hoots, cackles and wails from the city, transforms into a melodious tune with dulcet tones; it had all the earmarks of success. If success is counted by the dollars and cents as postulated by a vast majority, then it was fairy tale stuff, the epitome of a successful venture, the almost perfect denouement; almost.
It is most fitting that we are approaching the end of the year, perching on the precipice of 2012 (pun intended), the year we, not too long ago, ushered in with glitter and glamour, we look onwards to a new year, a new beginning. Not that I embrace the Mayans prediction.
I ended my stint of 9 months as a private tutor.
I then went on a getaway trip to Japan, Osaka for a week. Got back and ever since, counting the days has been my favorite pastime. Oh, not to mention that I am trying to pick up Japanese. Lets just see how long I will last. In any case, time ticks on.
Just 87 Days to
ORD..
I ain't hallucinating
