2008 - Recap

Well, I always thought of creating a post on what happened in 2008, but since I was kinda stuck with my hectic work stuffs, it is always delayed. Now, I'm slowly entering the things that happened in 2008. Well, sort of what I can remember..

January 2008 - The yearly holiday trip planned for this year and we choose Indonesia (well, it's a big country and there are so many places to visit plus the currency factor.. Hahahah) and the destination were Solo and Jogja. For me, I still find Indonesia interesting. The scenery, people, shopping and especially the foods. Well, Syah likes the foods a lot. Also many that you don't ever heard of are there in Indonesia.

February 2008 - I got myself a DSLR. My first DSLR, a Sony a200. Why Sony? I have always trusted Sony. No offence to other brands but I like to be different. To explore other brands. have the influece from my colleagues to buy Canon instead, but I choose Sony. And, until now, I am still happy with it..

May 2008 - I quit my job at BESSAR, well for several reasons. One, got another offer and better pay from a company, which were located in TPM also, but different area. The other one, someone is unhappy that I'm there and the project that we were doing are finally completed.

August 2008 - Alhamdulillah, me and Syah finally get the chance to perform Umrah. It was a fantastic unforgettable experience. So many things we explore, meeting so many people throughout the journey. InsyaAllah, maybe Hajj will come next.. Oh, and congratulations to my best friend, EZ who tied the knot with Zizi after 10 years of relationship.

October 2008 - After coming back from Umrah, Syah were admitted to Ampang Hospital. And the worse part is to see him with a tube in his neck because he has to do dialysis. Hari Raya were not really that good this year.

December 2008 - Landslide at Bukit Antarabangsa, it was horrible. Could never had imagine it would happened. Syah were still not in good condition. He were taken by a helicopter on the landslide day to HKL for his dialysis treatment. We have to evacuate our house and stayed for a week at Taman Melawati. The cats were taken along and were kept in the toilet, yes, seven of them and I couldn't stand it. After one and a half week, we managed to go babk to our home at Bukit Antarabangsa. However, Syah has to be admitted to Hospital Ampang as his conditions were getting worse. There were a small blister on his right foot. Finally, more of my close friends tied the knot. Congratulations to Syed & Kak Nor and Niza & Adly.

Hopefully 2009 will be a good year.. Goodbye 2008..
