Ready To Explode

It's 2016 Tomorrow

So, it's New Year's Eve where I live right now. And I'm gonna be frank with you.

I don't really care. But let me tell you why.

I don't really seem to care the way everyone else is. Like, I get it, 'whoo, the year is over! Time for a better one.' Or 'time to be the best I can be' or the 'new year new me' shit. Yay, blah blah blah.

To be honest most of these phrases sound like something you'd find in a Pokemon theme song.

But for me, or I guess just this year in general, I don't see what all the hype is about? Like, yeah, I get it, it's a new year, you're getting older, closer to dying, all that jazz. But it's not like Cinderella where the second the clock strikes midnight you're a different person. At 12:00 AM on Jan 1st, you're the exact same person you were at 11:59 PM Dec 31st. It's literally just another day.

If you were a cunt on the 31st of December, you're likely still gonna be a cunt on the 1st of January. If you were a heavy activist for something on the 31st of December, you're probably still gonna be that same kinda activist on the 1st of January. Same goes with everything else. Whether you were nice, rude, annoying, quiet, crazy, a sexual mongrel, what have you, it's not all just gonna disappear because the year on your phone, computer and calendar now says '2016'. You're still the exact same because it's just a new fucking day.

That's actually all it is. Just another new day, and when people make such a big hype out of it, I get annoyed. Again, I understand the hype, but there are gonna be those annoying people that say shit like 'remember LAST YEAR, when you and me did *insert probably really boring experience here*' after midnight. Or, again, those people who use those corny phrases.

The whole #NewYearNewMe is such bullshit and I honestly despise it with a passion. No. Not 'New Year New Me' it's 'New Year, Same Me' because it's been a new day. You didn't magically turn into a new person over night, boo boo. You're still the exact same. Maybe later on in the year it will be a new you, because change takes time, development and adaption. But just because it's been 2016 for 2 minutes doesn't mean the person you were in 2015 vanished into thin air.

But yeah. That's my opinion on New Years right now. I'll probably try my best to update one fanfiction today as a little treat. Comment which one you want it to be. I don't know if my mum is gonna make me go out today, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Thanks for reading. I hope your year was fantastic, or better than mine at least. And may your new year be just as bright or even better as the one about to pass.
