Well, seeing that I got myself into this very expensive hobby this year, I might as well chronicle 2008 with, well, photos.

I was very very excited to finally start 2008 (if you must know, my 2007 was pure hell) that I got myself dragged to far far away Sea Paradise to watch the *meh* fireworks and get my ass frozen. We got stuck at Higashi-Kanagawa (for n loooooong hours) waiting for the first train. It was less than five degrees celsius. I am never going to do that again. Ever.

So anyhoo, let’s go take a look at what happened to my year ^_^ (warning, very long post ahead).

If you squint a little more, you certainly won’t miss the resemblance.

I don’t wanna walk on eggshells again.

I’ve been in a blogging funk lately but I ain’t gonna waste my time trying to explain why I haven’t been posting these past few days. I’ll just blame work, work, and stupid work. Tsss.

Events are cowards: they didn’t occur singly, but instead they would run in packs and leap out at <you> all at once.

Seasonal affective disorder (SAD), also known as winter depression or winter blues, is a mood disorder in which people who have normal mental health throughout most of the year experience depressive symptoms in the winter or, less frequently, in the summer, repeatedly, year after year. The US National Library of Medicine notes that “some people experience a serious mood change when the seasons change. [ Wiki ]

This should explain why I’m extra bitchy and my sinusoidal mood’s been swinging like crazy nowadays. What the hell — I thought I was immune to this?

The Houston Comets — winner of four WNBA trophies and one of the eight original franchises in the league — is no more.

Fans discuss and lament. This almost happened to my team a year ago. Thank God these women exist or else the Storm would have been dead (or stuck in Oklahoma where Kevin Durant and the rest of the Sonics are now). So, thank you, Force 10 Hoops.

PS — Aaww, I thought I forgot the sting of losing in the first round.

STORRS, Conn. (AP)—Renee Montgomery had a career-high 30 points and matched the Connecticut record with 13 assists to help the top-ranked Huskies rout No. 4 Oklahoma 106-78 on Sunday night.

Montgomery, who got the first double-double of her career, tied the assists record set by Laura Lishness in 1991 against Seton Hall.

Maya Moore added 27 points and 12 rebounds and Tina Charles had 18 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks for UConn (5-0). Freshman Caroline Doty scored a career-high 18 points, going 6-for-6 from behind the 3-point line.

Danielle Robinson had 19 points and Ashley Paris added 17 points and 13 rebounds for Oklahoma (4-2). Courtney Paris had 14 points and 14 rebounds for her 98th straight double-double, extending her NCAA record.

It was the first time Oklahoma gave up over 100 points since losing to Connecticut, 102-80, in the NCAA regionals in 2000.
