Alritey........ someone need to enlighten me with something here.......

What the freakin' deal with people so excited with the X'mas countdown..... its great to see people from all walks of life and race, coming together and do the countdown. But what's the significance of it.......?? Countdown to X'mas..??!! 3, 2, 1, MERRY X'MAS.....!!!!! and play X'mas song?? Rudolf the Red-Nose Reindeer?? Dreaming of a White X'mas...??!! We're in Singappore... where got White X'mas??!!

Next time I do Deepavali countdown, then play Muneru-Valiba..... see you all happy or not!!

Then, after the countdown and all, you see people hugging each other, going around trying to pass the body sweat/odour to some stranger. I thought these things are only for the New Year?? I don't understand why some people are so kan-chiong to keep asking me "WHO'S DOING COUNTDOWN??"....... whoever la. Whats the big deal??!

As far as I remember, isn't X'mas is a religious thing? Celebrating the birth of Christ or something.....?? How come people celebrate it with alcohol, popping champagne, getting drunk..... and I mean pissed drunk, and irritate the hell out of me. The unlucky ones may ended up in brawls and fights, which could get fatal.

And what's the deal with people spraying the confetti balloons on other people along Orchard Road??!! Streets jammed, filled with rubbish, and kids making noise blowing horns for no reason.

Don't get me wrong. I've got nothing against X'mas. But I think people forgot the purpose of this day. The reason to rejoice and ponder has lost its meaning. Lucky enough, we don't need to do Deepavali countdown, Hari Raya countdown and Vesak day countdown. I was told some places did the Chinese New Year countdown!!!! Goodness!!

I am really not looking forward to the NYE party...... There's something that I haven't do for the past 15years.... a quite NYE with love ones..... its a job hazard. I'm beginning to hate this.
