Salute! it's 2009

Time flies! Today is the 1st of January of 2009! Welcome new year, I pray for a good life ahead as i'm going to be doing my first year in Accounting & Finance. To all my seniors, please guide me and to my dear friends and peers GAMBATEH!

Last night we went to Stone haven to see a parade of sort. There's the bagpipe band and a drum band. After time hits 0000 hours, people swings their fireballs - men and women both young and old. It's their tradition for 100 years and still alive today.


Stone Haven Town Square

It's a 30 minute drive from Aberdeen, parking was hard to find but we just parked at the road side. Many did that and we walked towards Stone Haven - it was 0°C burrr!
