Dear Diary,
It's a new year and I guess I forgot to celebrate your first birthday! Sorry about that, had never been good with birth dates.. guess I should make that one of the new year resolutions.
Hence, a new year, a new beginning, and of course, a new semester to bring down the euphoria of the new year. This is the fifth year of the millenium and somehow I find it to be special. Already, we are living in the halfth decade of this still very new millenium. So much had happened.. so much deaths, what can men do against such reckless hate to quote King Theoden in The Two Towers, yah, nature's wraths, men's insanity, all combine to countless deaths in the most impoverished places on the planet. I wish that the US tone down a little and perceive itself as a global superhouse not interms of its military might, but in terms of its humanitarian efforts in peacekeeping and aid to the world, I hope that Al-qaeda, Islamic Jihad... would dissolve and collapse under their own ideological frailities, I wish that one day, I would be equipped with the skills in life saving, in property rescuing, do my part no matter how frail and small it may be towards humanity and the nature environment. Nature deseves our respect.. Nonetheless, all these are just grandiose wishes that I have.. more often than not, they will never come true anyway..
