So recently I have been asking this question from myself as to why do most of my blog entries start with the word "so" but "so" far I don't have an answer. Maybe its because the word "so" "so" uniquely intertwines real life events to the written word. Anyway
The holiday season is upon us. In a few days time, its going to be Christmas. There is a general sense of joy and mirth in the air. Every important place is lit up, and it hasn't snowed. A lot of my friends have been coerced by their parents into visiting them for Christmas. This appears to be a time when people in Berlin give in to tradition and visit their families. I feel Christmas has the same air of festivity in Berlin as Eids do in Lahore. There are fewer cars on the roads, fewer people on train stations, there are lots of Christmas markets throughout Berlin and people are visiting them by the hundreds. Interestingly enough, many people I know who are going away for the Christmas are still going go be back by the new years. Clearly they think New Years would be best celebrated in Berlin.
In a few days, a new year is going to start. I dont know for the world, and 2013 has been quite a ride. With this I must take leave and wish my readers an extremely eventful next year.
