GOODBYE 2009..!!

So it’s the December 31st, finally. 2009 ended. How was the year for you, guys? Bad? Good? I would say 50-50. A fresh year starts from tomorrow onwards… and the Girl on The Move will be starting the 4th continuous year in my blog. That’s something!

Like any of you, I too have so many hopes for 2010 and like any of you; I too summarized 2009 in a mind map. I was thinking how it was for me yesterday. The year started being busy with office work, as usual.. in my project. Got so many good friends from the project… as things were smooth, a good friend whom I trusted my life, broke my heart.. breaking my trust. And that I should say was a huge thing. I was so much down and both our friends were on my side… watching over me.. and I got through the situation in a very good way, thanks to my friends and my self control…

Life started again with more friends.. Life was good.. so many outings.. trips… good times all over. Didn’t let go of any good movie or a good book as usual. Missed a lot of small things though, cz I was having a bad time in the latter part of the year in the office. Another good thing happened this year was carom. Carrom opened a whole new world for me. I got a lot of new friends.. and existing friends became very good friends because of the whole carrom thingy… It was all so good…

Things at home were so much good, as usual.. and I quit the Canada thingy in the very last moment.. and I think it’s a good decision that I had to take. Now I see it’s all for good. My job : I wanted to quit and find a new one.. and things were going smooth, but at the last moment, things got screwed up, thanks to some arrogant people in my project. After so many grumpy incidents.. moody talks.. and ray of lights, I quit the job.. leaving behind all my good friends.. and taking all the happy memories.

My grandfather passed away at the very last week of the year and we all were so busy till yesterday… and the busy work will continue till this weekend also… Hmmm… Love : All I hav to say is.. it’s good.. and things will be good next year too.. Crushes : Yeah.. 1 – 2 days ;-)

As the new year starts in a moment.. I too look forward for hopes of happiness and laughter.. So many hopes and dreams… So my friends, let’s take all our good memories and lessons learned to 2010.. and let’s hope for the best for the coming year 2010.. All the very best..!!

Goodbye 2009…!!

2012

OK… I usually don’t miss a good movie for any reason in the world. So I didn’t miss this one either. You shouldn’t either. Though I downloaded it and watched it, I recommended that you guys should watch it in wide screen. It will be the best option. Well.. It’s a good movie, trust me. Just as any other Ronald Emmerich (Independence Day, Day After Tomorrow) movie, it’s awesome.

Basically, the film briefly references Mayanism, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, and the 2012 phenomenon in its portrayal of cataclysmic events unfolding in the year 2012. Because of solar flare bombardment the Earth's core begins heating up at an unprecedented rate, eventually causing crustal displacement. This results in an onslaught of Doomsday event scenarios plunging the world into chaos, ranging from California falling into the Pacific Ocean, the eruption of the Yellowstone National Park caldera, massive earthquakes, and Mega tsunami impacts along every coast line on the Earth. The film centers around an ensemble cast of characters as they narrowly escape multiple catastrophes in an effort to reach ships in the Himalayas, along with scientists and governments of the world who are attempting to save as many lives as they can before the disasters ensue. That’s how Wiki says about the movie. But I’m not gonna post a detailed epilogue about the movie this time. I was curious what the theory behind this whole 2012 phenomenon is. So I looked it up.

This is straight from Wiki -> The 2012 phenomenon comprises a range of eschatological beliefs and proposals, which posit that cataclysmic or transformative events will occur on December 21 or December 23, 2012,which is said to be the end-date of a 5,125-year-long Mayan Long Count calendar. These beliefs may derive in part from archaeoastronomical speculation,alternative interpretations of mythology, numerological constructions, or alleged prophecies from extraterrestrial beings. A New Age interpretation of this transition posits that, during this time, the planet and its inhabitants may undergo a positive physical or spiritual transformation, and that 2012 may mark the beginning of a new era. Conversely, some believe that the 2012 date marks the beginning of an apocalypse.

Both ideas have been disseminated in numerous books and TV documentaries, and have spread around the world through websites and discussion groups. Scholars of various stripes have disputed the idea that a catastrophe will happen in 2012, suggesting that predictions of impending doom are found neither in classic Maya accounts nor in contemporary science. Mainstream Mayanist scholars argue that the idea that the Long Count calendar "ends" in 2012 misrepresents Maya history.To the modern Maya, 2012 is largely irrelevant, and classic Maya sources on the subject are scarce and contradictory, suggesting that there was little if any universal agreement among them about what, if anything, the date might mean.

Well.. There are a few theories on how the 2012 Apocalypse will take place. Just check this out

A very famous one is the clashing of Planet Nibiru. Well.. Personally, I just believe that the end of the world can be ANY day. Just some randon Asteroid crunching down the earth or a massive volcanic eruption or whatsoever. We can’t really say. It can be the next moment, right? I mean.. collisions and things like that happen every second in the planets in this Universe. We can’t be sure it won’t happen on earth, right? So.. Let’s live and find out, shall we? ;-)

LIFE'S LIKE THAT....

Life gives you good things and bad things both. In spite of how you choose to act upon them, the life still flows on. Life was not so smooth for me in the past couple of weeks. It’s work. I have been under a tremendous amount of pressure because of the things happening at my work place for the last couple of weeks. I was sort of confused.. and then scared. I had a lot of questions like ‘why?’ and ‘why me?’. The things are not smooth, still. But I decided to face that come what may and get out of the situ.

I wanted to change my job. But then again I stayed back considering a couple of factors, temporarily. It’s time I do it, but I still want to wait and see if there’s any good coming out of the mess. I’ve been missing a lot of things in the last couple of weeks. I missed reading.. I missed movies.. and I missed good times with my friends. But then there was this family trip to Udawalawa, Yala & Katharagama… which gave me a great boost of spirit. Had an awesome time Safari-ing and singing… An unforgettable time.

I decided to keep my focus on the things I used to do and love, rather than worrying about the crap at the office. That feels better. It’s almost the end of the year and some good things are on the way. The biggest thing I was waiting for this month was over. Chadi & Arjuna’s wedding & home coming. It happened perfectly & I was able to help them out as much as I can. Well… Things to add up.. I got sick in big time.. My mom got sick.. My Grandfather was sick.. and that was a very tough time.

The Christmas is on the way. I’ll not be at home for Christmas. I’ll be at Anusha’s place, helping out them for their father’s Alms Giving. My sister finished her studies at the Uni and she’s at home these days. My father is taking all of his leaves from work and having a peaceful time at home. It’s not lazy to stay at home when they’re around. Well… Life goes on like this. I want to see what else is on the way.. good or bad. I really want to make the next year a better one than this. That’s how it should be, I guess…
