2012

Alas. The Year of Doom and Gloom is here.

Even if one is to ignore the predictions and prophecies of our upcoming doom and the death of the world as we know it.. Little on the horizon is worth looking forward to.

World economy is dying. The main antagonists of Capitalism (the U.S. and the European nations) are under fire and have little hope left.

Russia, China and the remaining developing countries are all either Socialist/Communist in some form or have no regards to Capitalism and will forsake it as soon as the shit hits the fan.

And that's just the financial world.

The words of an inept "Director" at the "Careers and Academics Office" in NTU continues to ring in my ears and make me laugh always:

"Ah, all you students going for your Industrial Attachment this year! Much to look forward to! In a year or two you'll graduate, and with that, the recovered economy will mean an easy time for you to get a job!"

This was in 2010.

When I first heard it? I knew this was one useless guy, in a rather important position in a rather well-known/prestigious school.

2012 is one year I don't look forward to.

Something tells me this year isn't gonna be pretty.
