So 2016 is here. That means a new day, a new beginning, a new year… but everything is still the same. Just the date on your phones has changed. And there were a bunch of fireworks (some really good ones too) all over the world last night but that’s about it.

Here’s everything that proves how the new year doesn’t exactly mean everything is new:

1. You are as broke as 2015

The new year will not welcome you with tons of money raining all over you. You’re still going to be asking friends for “Udhaar” They will again refuse because they know you wont be paying them…just like the previous year.

2. You will have the same old ghar ka khana and anday wala burger

Your mom will not turn into Zubaida apa and she will still cook aaalo teenday for you so that anday wala burger point at the the corner of your street will still be your best friend.

3. Your crush will still ignore you

The hot senior still won’t know that you exist while you’re still drooling over them whenever they pass by. Your heart may still skip a beat when you see them smiling but of course, they DO NOT know that you exist.

4. You’ll still spend hours searching for that one sock in the morning

A half hour will be spent searching for that one sock you lost in 2013. You will still not remember where you put your car keys and no, you wont be able to find that black dupatta when you’re getting late for work in the morning.

5. Your room will still be as messy as 2015

That one chair with loads of clothes will be the same, the towel will still be laying on the floor and your blanket wont be able to fold itself. Someone needs to build an app to deal with all that, it’s 2016, after all!

6. Traffic will still be a problem in every corner of Pakistan

It’s 2016 and you still can’t fly to your destination in a car. This is preposterous! There will still be traffic jams and stupid horns that will make you irritable so early in the morning, not to mention, make you late for yet another Monday.

7. Mullah Abbasi will still rant

Your news feeds will be as filled with Hamza Ali Abbasi statuses as in 2015, about every single thing that happens in this country or  even on Mars. Everything and everyone is horribly wrong. Liberals are too liberal, conservatives are too conservative, the gays are too gay and the straight folks are too straight. No one but Mr. Abbasi is right.

8. Meera jee will still speak a language only she understands

To be honest, we really don’t want her to speak fluently in English because then we wont be able to crack jokes about it. No matter, what she says she will be admired for her confidence. Learn something from her, angrezo ki aulaado!

 9. Tabdeeli will still be on it’s way in 2016

There is no tabdeeli coming up anytime soon folks, so calm the fuck, down. It is high time to stop relying on one person to change the country, change yourselves and that is tabdeeli enough.

Or maybe have Steve Harvey announce the next election results 😛

11. Aunties will ask the same old questions

If you thought this year you won’t be getting asked stupid questions from your relatives at every family event then you have never been so wrong.

“Shadi kab krogae”
“Job kabse hai”
And the nightmare of college students everywhere… “GPA kia hai beta?”

12. And your family, loved ones and your jiggars will always have your back just like in 2015

The years will come and go, but nothing will erase those beautiful memories of being with friends, having your family to support you and those butterfly feelings in your stomach that your loved one gave you. It is all about making the most of it.

Here’s wishing you a beautiful new year ahead. Even if nothing really is new 😉
