It’s 9pm and I’m at my sister’s place enjoying quite family holiday.

It’s no secret that New Year is not celebrated here like back at home. With all the shining super-mega shopping complexes, all the luxury and high technology New Year eve isn’t as exciting. I guess it’s not because of those things, I guess it’s the new year mood that gets you high and makes it more exciting.

Yeah, few hours left of 2008, 2009 is just ahead. So what was so special in 2008 to me?

• My daughter, my sweet angel. She turned 1 and walking and talking(in her own way). My shining star. I love her so much!
• My son, super-duper cool guy He started talking English only. His first year at pre-school is over. He’s not rooky anymore
• My wife started working as freelance guide. She couldn’t wait to start. Now she’s in Sabah, a part of Malaysia where the locals used to hang skulls of their ancestors. She’s there for a 2 weeks job. Doing pretty good.
• I got to know great and interesting people. Learned a lot.
• Went to couple of barcamps.
• Started driving, bought my first ever car. An old Honda civic which is older then me
• Started off (2-3 months ago)  couple of websites ( http://hotweddingguide.com and http://thebrandology.com ) with my kid sister. Today I got to know they are Google PR2!
• Said good bye to my futsal career (as if!) because of my knee injury. I really have to find some time and get it “fixed” as my better half says.
• Have malaysian server, moving out from US.
• Hands on Macs, iPod touch

I could go on with the list but I think it’s enough. Now, next post will be expectations for the year 2009.

Stay around.
