excited. What will happen when your clock strikesmidnight? Will the world come to an end? Or will Y2Kreally happen? Everybody will have quivers downtheir back, and butterflies in their stomachs. Somepeople will surround their television sets, waiting forthe ball to fall. Some people will be lucky enough tosee it live in New York. As always, there will be ahuge screen counting down each second. 5...4...3...2...the whole world is counting down as the clock ticks.Tick tock, tick tock, DWG! Happy New Year!Everybody shouts, jumping and screaming, while theconfetti and balloons pour down like rain. All thecommotion will stop suddenly, as a cold breeze fills theair. All of us will patiently wait for a drastic momentto happen. Maybe all the power will slowly turn off ineach building and each home. Maybe a big asteroidwill hit the earth and all the people will die.Everybody is still, like pausing a movie. Nothing.Nada. Zip. Not even something little happens. NoY2K. It is the year 2000. The millennium, andeverything is still the same. Oh well. There is alwaysthe next millennium to obsess about. You better getready for Y3K.--Safia AnsariI■■■) |
