So this is...

...the scene eh? Wandered on to ach after a long time to see a lot of people coming out with what they did or what happened to them during the past year. It's been a while since the last post and I've got some time in hand so thought of jotting down a few things that I remember of the year that was 2008.

- Well, did the least amount of blogging since the time this started. Only 10 posts (not including this one) for the entire year. In fact, dropped off the whole blog scene all together. Hardly went through my regular reads let alone explore the new ones (and there are quite a few it seems). Can't really think why. It just happened that way. Nobody will probably read this :)

- Met me 'aiya' after three years in London. He's still his super-self.

- Performed on stage for the first time and did it once more. Felt fucking good even though it was for a small crowd. Wish I could make a living out of it. Really do.

- Consumed an insane amount of alcohol. Smoked a lot more than ever before. Partied a lot more than I thought I would following last year. No regrets.

- Bought me first vehicle. Gah I louwe it. You should see it. You'd louwe it too. Stay away! It's all MINE!

- Met and befriended a bunch of damn interesting and hilariously funny bloggers. You know who you are :)

- Traveled the farthest in support of a friend. Saw Tiesto again while I was there. Not even close to the first time but still was pretty awesome.

- After all these years of playing, had my first major injury and had some minor surgery done. Happened at the worst possible time. Watching from the sidelines sucks ass. Joint injuries FTL.

- For the first time, didn't see a single club rugby game! Good year in the international sporting scene. I mean the Giants won the Superbowl, Celts won the NBA, United won a double and Hamilton won the F1. If only Boston had won the world series.

- Had the worst year so far at work. Gah.

- Grew quite restless. Became more convinced that life doesn't really have a meaning or serve any real purpose. Detaching myself from the world, looking at it as if watching a giant cctv monitor and thinking 'what the fuck are these people doing' became a common occurrence.

I'm sure there was a lot more. Gah!

Sha! A blog post. After all, you're about the only person who's been worse than me over the last few months.

I will have to do one of these things too. I see some immediate commonalities, though evidently I have to get on stage and perform before the year is out.

This will be my goal... And heck, there's nothing stop you being a rock star. *dooooooooooooo iiiiiiitttttttt*

When did you become a United fan? Is this some kind of conspiracy?

Detachment can be a good thing, especially in times of boredom. I know all about it.

the loverlord speaks the truth. Sometimes detachment is the best freaking coping mechanism.

I want pics of the jeep!
