What I will remember about 2008

0. My decision to move back from Hong Kong back home.
1. Going on a holiday to Taiwan with my mum and close family friends.
2. Meeting my boyfriend, Roy.
3. The start of my career with ANZ.
4. The ASX dropping over 50% in a year. What goes up, sometimes comes down.. and will eventually go up again!!
5. The global phenomenon of bank nationalisation - it happened all so quick!!
6. The Australian dollar dropping close to 40% in a matter of weeks!!
7. Being with Latte and being able to spend a full year with him.
8. Learning how to be patient (more patient than I already am) with work, relationships and family.
9. To be very forgiving in certain situations.
10. Looking at ANZ's restructuring and making over 800 people redundant.
11. Dealt with the MOST difficult, horrible, annoying, not understanding, not listening, un co-operative client ever. One of my collegues said that we usually only meet one of these clients in 5-6 years. I hope I don't get another one of these clients until then!!
12. I joined the gym - however, I have been extremely lazy in the last 2-3 months. I need to motivate myself, and YES!! It's going to be on the list of my New Year Resolutions!!
13. Tuesdays at rockclimbing - which is now a sport that Roy and I do, as well as Addy, who climbs abit later.
14. Plenty of new lovely restaurants i've been indulging myself to: Maitre Karl, Lucio's, Bilsons, Waqu, Criniti's.. the list goes on and on and on :)

mm... what else? Plenty more delightful memories but it's so hard to write each down every one of them down. Here's my top 10, with an extra 4 !! :)
