The World Has Turned Again

2009! A new year! Seriously though, why do people make such a big deal over the new year? I mean, its not like your points on your record get dropped or taxes get re-lowered(that would be pretty cool though).

Perhaps it is because we subconsciously believe that in the new year we can leave our mistakes behind and start anew(this is entirely false of course. You can't just leave you past behind. But you can let it stop haunting you).

Or maybe it is used to gauge how long one has until something can be obtained(Like when you where waiting until you where old enough to legally buy a "T" rated video game).

Or perhaps one believes that because of a resolution that whole world will change.

So, I end my musings with a question: What are you going to do different this year?

Fan Fact:The average computer user blinks 7 times a minute.
