Goodbye 2006, Hello 2007

A new year, a new begining. 2006 is now behind us.

Joining hundreds of thousands of excited Singaporeans at the Esplandade, I was also eager to watch this year's fireworks, which promised to be more impressive than last year's.

The Esplanade was overwhelmed with people just like last year. From party-goers dancing away in clubs at One Fullerton, families equipped with brollies and mats to enjoy the anticipated magnificient view to people like me - a curious onlooker, all gathered to see how impressive the fireworks will be.

I didn't seem to hear the music that was supposed to accompany the fireworks probably due to the deafening music behind me. The fireworks was a nice sight to watch and my favourite was the finale. Other than fireworks sprouting from the skyline of Marina Bay, some other skyscrapers also joined in the celebration with fireworks firing furiously.

8 minutes later, 2007 was officially here to stay.

From Singapore's very own GST increase and property price increases to France's Sarkozy's Presidential bid, Thailand's new year's eve bombings and lots more, 2007 promises to be a year of action.
