Yes, This is the year-ender post of the author. 2008 has been a very meaningful year to me, a year of unforgettable events, a year of firsts, a year of unexpected events but nevertheless, 2008 has been very good to me and this blog.

In the past year, i have:
- been in a relationship which would last forever.
- been a game designer and QA director
- been in a band
- been part of the disbanding band
- been trying to build up a new band
- played at venues i have never imagined to play (Route 196, Mag:Net Katipunan and Saguijo)
- met new friends
- hated people (they reached my limits)
- been busy playing games on the pc
- constantly updated my blogs here, multiply, wordpress
- been thinking of closing my wordpress blogsite (since it has the same contents of this blog and my multiply account)
- bought cds and dvd’s
- been to concerts, album launches and mall tours (as a fan)
- reached the 100th post here in points of interests (yeehaw!)
- given my hair a new look
- lost someone (goodbye tatay avelino)
- recorded some music using my pc (i have it here, im just shy to show it to the world. my pancake has her own copies of those songs. hehehe!)

- been doing videocalls (thank you red mobile)
- done things i have never done before
- been getting better and stronger
- been blessed with all of the blessings that i can get this year

And so before i say goodbye to 2008 and welcome in 2009, i have here my own personal top 10 songs for 2008. I may not have a mixtape of it but these songs have been playing for the whole year round in my pc, ipod and cds. This is somewhat the music that kept me grooving in the past year

10. Bloc Party – So here we are
- As covered by We kick ass for the lord, then later the Stereolalas. How i miss those days. But life has to move on and so is this countdown.

9. Taken By Cars – December 2, Chapter 7
- Bloc party written all over it. Nice…..

8. The Killers – Mr. Brightside
- I just like the riffs and drumming of this song. heheh that’s all!

7. Joy Division/New Order – Ceremony
- A painful love song i have ever heard. Thanks aids for the recommendation.

6. Death Cab for Cutie – Blacking out the friction
- An old song, catchy riff, and true talent that DCfC can only deliver.

5. Bloc Party – This Modern Love
- refer to previous post for my reason.

4. In lab ako sayo – Original Composition
- This is my list any problems? hehe. Basically this is my attempt on doing a pop love song. And it worked. hehehe!

3. Ang Bandang Shirley – Patintero/Habulan/Larong Kalye
- Since the early days if the “Rizal day sessions” ep that they made, i instantly fell in love with this song. And im also honored that i once played with Owel, one of the vocalists of this band. Good job Shirley!

2. Dashboard Confessional – Stolen
- Yeah, she definitely stole my heart….

1. Adam Sandler – Grow old with you
- For personal reasons. heehehe!

So i would like to assess that 2008 has been an exciting year. And i believe that 2009 will be another year filled with interesting stories to tell, events, milestones, good and bad times, surprising and everything in between. If i would be turning back the time in the year 2008, it would have been as early as January, cause those events have been very meaningful and made me a stronger, responsible and at the same time, a very jolly person.

To those people whom i shared 2008, cheers! looking forward to 2009…

As for my one and only pancake, cheers to forever! mnmkbp999
