• Mindoro reunion
• Ilocos trip with Kaze
• My older sister's month-long stay in San Fransisco for work
• My older sister's operation
• Benefit gig for Tara Santelices
• First gig with Session Road @ Xaymaca
• Faye's 3-month stay in New York for work (which forced Kaze to go on a hiatus)

• Wii!! ^_^
• Gabutero reunion @ Biñan (and meeting my nephew Jacob for the first time)
• Benjie.
• Jaffe (pronounced as "Jafee"), the newest member of our family. He's a 2-month old Siamese cat. :) I will post pictures when I'm not feeling lazy.
• Almost getting my leg blown off by a firecracker. The neighbor's Coke bottle (aka kwitis stand) fell down right after he lit the firecracker, and the thing went streaking towards us while we were busy watching someone else's fireworks and it blew up right beside me. Thank goodness I was wearing jeans and I wasn't hurt.
I don't know if I forgot anything...but what the heck. It was an interesting year, and I hope 2009 will be just as exciting. :) HAPPY NEW YEAR!
