The year that is so full of memories for me, is now coming to an end. So before the curtain closes on 2008, I would like to bid it a good farewell.
I am happy to say that I am leaving this year with no regrets. Whatever decisions I made I know that it was the best decision I made under the circumstances at that time. But I do know that for things to change, I will have to do things differently. Because if I keep doing what I'm doing, I am going to keep getting what I'm getting.
Tomorrow marks a brand new year, with new inspirations and new hopes! I would like to take this opportunity to wish all readers and all fellow bloggers a very happy and smashing 2009!!
With the craze of Mamma Mia The Musical still around, I would like to leave you with this wonderful song sung by ABBA. It's called HAPPY NEW YEAR.
For those who prefer much younger artists, here's the same song sung by A-Teens.
Whichever video you choose, why not sing along with the lyrics below?
No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say...
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every
neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our
hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as
well lay down and die
You and I
Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway...
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every
neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our
hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as
well lay down and die
You and I
Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine...(2008)...
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every
neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our
hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as
well lay down and die
You and I
HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE !!!
Happy New Year to you!!
2008 has been a wonderful year for me...discovering blogging, meeting fellow bloggers and taking up photography. For the many ups and downs I have faced, these experiences have all taught me important life lessons.
Here's to a blessed New Year ahead!
Happy New Year to you!
happy new year to u! :)
2008 has been a great year to me too
Happy New Year to you too!
Yes you seem to have had a great success on your blog. Lots of readers and comments! That's great! I'm jealous =))
2008 is not a good year to me. Because my family encountered the Wenchuan earthquake, and we lost our house at my second hometown.
But I think everything will get better, If I work hard.
Hope you a happy new year!
May you be more charming, richer, healthier and happiest this coming new year!! Happy year 2009!
Happy New Year, pal. Here's wishing you all the best for 2009 :D
Happy New Year to you too and gosh, can you pass some of your blogging luck to me? I wish to have as many readers as you too XP
Happy New Year wishes to you and your family!
Hope for a more positive 2009!!
Cheers!!
Wishing you a very Happy New Year. Cheers
May this New Year bring you more love, joy and success. HAPPY 2009! :)

Happy New Year 2009. Wish you all the best!
the only song i like for xmas is aud lang syne. i hate to leave 2008 behind but i need to grow older and wiser... for the new born 2009.
play the piano for me please :(
SUITUAPUI:
As 2008 comes to an end
Our New Year greetings we send
To friends far and near
Especially to ones so dear
We seem like friends since long ago
Tho' we've never met before
Our thoughts and feelings we share
And in our own small way, we care
As we count down the seconds to midnight
Pray eveything will turn out right
Let's hope 2009 will bring good cheer.
May our paths cross in the coming year.
P.S. I thought of linking this song to my post...but I prefer the one I've chosen. You like my choice?
Wah, you leave such a nice sajak at my blog and all I can leave you is this:
May you not trod on bullshit in the year of the bull and also may 2009 bring you less cows, less bullshit, more pretty gals, more money, less headache and more fun!
Now, be a good boy and don't get drunk in all the festivities and start hitting on ugly old aunties. Trust me, you don't want to wake up tomorrow and see an old hag snoring next to you. lol.
Heheheh...I'm not a sajak / poem writing person mah, wat2do...
Eh, by the way, thank you for following my snarky blog...
cant write a poem but do have a great happy new year
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and leaving me a New Year's poem. I agree with you that we should leave the old year behind with no regrets and start the new year fresh and ready to go!
You've got a really good blog going so keep it up! Happy New Year, buddy.

Let me leave my greetings here too.
Happy New Year, Foong, and may all that you wish for come true.
What a coincidence about the ABBA song. I put it up on my blog just last night. Lovely song though a little sad. Still, plenty to look forward to, right?
Hey!!! :-D
Thanks for that poem you posted on my blog!! :-D
Happy New Year to you too!!
May 2009 be your best year, Foongpc! :)
Thanks everyone for your Happy New Year greetings! May 2009 be the best year yet for all of us! : )
my bug life, learning important life lessons in 2008? That's just so meaningful. I hope you will continue to enjoy photography and blogging in 2009 and beyond : )
rad, don't be jealous. You can do it too! Just need some hard work and lots of passion in blogging. Good luck!! : )
iwalk, sorry to hear you lost your house in the earthquake. I'm sure things will only get better from now on, and I wish you all the best!! : )
jim, you can do it too. You don't need any blogging luck, just hard work and lots and lots of passion for blogging, and that includes reading other people's blogs. Remember the law of Attraction? Put it to work, yes? : )
faisal, how come you sound so sad? Cheer up, my friend! I will try to play a song for you when I've got the time to do some recording. I'll try my best, OK? : )
suituapui, yes I like that song sung by Lea Salonga. She's a favourite singer of mine since Aladdin days. She's better suited to sing in musicals, definitely not a pop or commercial singer.
foong, haha! Your "poem" is funny! I like to read your blog because you are sarcastic and humourous at the same time - a splendid combination! : )
preston, yeah, no regrets. look forward to a brand new year, yes? : )
medie007, you make me blush with your praises. Haha! You have a great blog, so keep it up, yes? : )
lisa, monica & jam, you are welcome! : )
pikey, oh you like ABBA? Not surprising, their music is superb and evergreen! : )
renaye, sure. Why not? : )
benedict ng, thanks for dropping by my blog! : )
bengbeng, yes I wished I have joined you guys too! Glad you like my poem : )
tekkaus, everyone is talking about Mamma Mia these days, so I chose this song from ABBA. Good song, yes? My new year resolution? To make more money, travel to more places and gain better health : )
happysurfer, yeah, what a coincidence! haha!
leo, thanks and welcome! : )
happy new year, foongpc! hope ur having a super one so far... and for the days to come :)
Thanks quachee! Although it's like the 13th day of the new year already. haha! Better late than never, yes? : )
apologies for my malaysia time hehe
I don't think this is Malaysian time anymore. Malaysian time is late by a few minutes to a few hours, not 13 days! Haha! Btw, I wonder if the chinese people in China are punctual? : )
haha what a point out! hehe. ok, my bad! hehe
china chinese, err... i didnt make appt with them like that. but i find china and malaysia (even korea) very simiilar in many ways.
Wish you a Very Happy New Year! I Hope you are having a great year 2009....
To my mind everyone may read it.
