And we’re here.
17 days into the brand new year, and I have already attended 2 weddings, which makes it a record 4 in 6 weeks. That’s about 1 wedding every 1.5 week.
I love even numbered years. 2006, 2010, 2012, 500008730. You get the idea. Somehow, having a digit that is even makes things more (for lack of a better word), complete. So it’s appropriate that the world ends in 2012, as this will prove things here are complete and done with.
When travelling in an odd numbered group, there will be 1 person who most probably have to sit alone on the tour bus. When going kayaking, someone in the group most likely will be stuck with some drunk redneck whom you don’t even know, and end up turning the kayak over. And imagine if you have 3 children, one of them for sure has to sit that roller coaster ride at Sunway Lagoon by him/herself with another parent’s kid who might just be the bully that you were in high school. Only thing is that you don’t want your child to go down that illustrious path of becoming a bully. Thereafter, your kid gets wedgied by the bully sitting beside him in the roller coaster just because your kid wasn’t a bully.
You know what could be worse? You, the parent having to sit through the roller coaster ride with your lonely kid. And your roller coaster ride is just a mild example. How about having to sit through a movie such as Never Say Never? (Hopefully I’ll be wise not to let my kids know of the existence of a certain Mr Bieber). Do you people see the implications of an even numbered digit now?
My unborn son/daughter, if you happen to sit alone and get bullied by a random stranger on a roller coaster ride in the future, I apologise in advance for the possibility a night of drunken stupor resulting in me not thinking straight at all.
