I’ve been meaning to do something like this before (I actually imagined something like this to be my first post in 2009) but… *shrugging my shoulders* I wasn’t able to get past the conceptualizing  to the actual writing.

When I hopped into a friend’s blog and her her post of similar nature, I was suddenly reminded to do this. Anyway, I hope it’s not too late to do this now.

So 2008 found me with:

A new baby in our family- he’s my nephew :-)

A new PC –my husband wanted to get me one (one for our room). It’s one of those dinosaur PCs though because I was still undecided whether I’d opt for a laptop then.

My son getting positive of primary complex- I was too glad and relieved  when he got a “clear lung“ x-ray 6 months later

My son having his worst asthma attack and his getting sick of pneumonia – horrible moment  of my life

My first DSLR- because I wanted to see the creative side of me – if I do have any. *wink*

Trip to Boracay – I couldn’t believe I actually dared swimming in the ocean…but of course, not without a lifejacket and a buddy to guide me.

Parenting Dramas. Haayyy.

Broken N70 Phone – with a toddler at home, this is not too shocking.

Good blogging income – this was unexpected and I feel so blessed. I used  some to pay for my DSLR and then our trip abroad

Seeing an old friend with her cute daughter again

Lots of paperworks “for the future” - like you can’t imagine!

New N70 Phone- my husband gave this as a birthday present because I didn’t want any  phone other than my old phone, so he got me the same model.

First trip abroad – I still think of Disneyland as a magical world!

Worst LQ ever and then better understanding of my partner- Hmmm…

Positive career assessment – here’s one step leading to my goal-or my family’s goal

Huge credit cards bills –it has something to do with the paperworks and trip abroad (but which I miraculously paid in full)

Having two foreigners as guests in our home – a Vitenamese and a Brazilian. They are my siblings’ “loves.”

My sister’s wedding - Finally… after a long wait for the papres from Brazil to get to  P.I.

Series of car repairs  :-( Barney. Mickey and Friends. Green Puma Bag. Spongebob. Winnie ‘d Pooh.  Outdoor Clothing. Bob the Builder.  Photoshop.  Lightroom. New clothes and shoes that I didn’t buy.  Photobucket. Flickr.   BVLGARI Crystalline. A  Tommy H watch and jewelries that I didn’t buy. *smiles*  A happy heart.
