What a year it was! For sure 2011 will be one of those years I will never forget. It has been a roller-coaster of a ride, thought that it would be my worst, but at the end of it all, it offered me a promise of a lifetime.

And now people sing Auld Lang Syne without thinking what it really means. According to its Wikipedia page:

Auld Lang Syne is very widely used to symbolise other “endings/new beginnings”

Auld Lang Syne also translates to “old long since”, which could mean “days gone by”.

Surely, days really have gone by and I really hope all the bitterness and bad vibes will remain in the year that was. And hopefully, as the year 2012 progresses, we will be the ones sending off fireworks this time.
