My final post for the year is a mix of things and some flashy gifs. I am sad to see this year end and delighted it has. I am looking forward like every new year with intrepidation and excitement but 2013 will be the biggest year of my life so far, and this one was huge.
So dear readers to help you with a list of New Year greetings here you go.
Found all this on the net and through Google Translate, if anyone is wondering and yes all the gifs here I found using the word free.
Some musings:
“Hope
Smiles from the threshold of the year to come,
Whispering 'it will be happier'...” ― Alfred Tennyson
An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves. ~Bill Vaughan

A New Year greeting in Danish: "godt nyt år!" and... "ukiortaassami pilluaritsi" as we say it in Greenland :)
Maligayang Bagong Taon! That is the Tagalog translation of Happy New Year! :) But we greet each other here as Manigong Bagong Taon! Which means Have a Prosperous New Year! - That is for you Luke and you loved ones as well. :)
Though I think Einstein's is the best quote, Vaughan's pessimist is the one I can relate to :).
Anyhow: Gelukkig Nieuwjaar!

Hi Stephanie, nice words from those in Greenland. I hope your 2013 is a fun filled one
Hi JP Happy new year, when does all your holiday start as you worked all over the festive season?
Hi Colson, A few quotes always nice, I am more the pessimist, seems appropriate to make sure the year ends before we can start again.
SRS Thank you. And it was a happy new beer.
Happy New Year mate.As usual I had fun reading your blog this year. Keep it up :)
Hi Simon
Do keep reading and you should start writing again. Surbaya must have its adventures and tales to be told
