The year that was…

So here’s my little summmary of 2008. As usual I am getting in a little late on my reflections but that’s just me:

Worked at Compeer.
Wasn’t at uni
Got kicked out of our house in Enmore
Moved to Glebe. Martin and I lived on own for the first time
Kevin Rudd said Sorry to Indigenous Australians
Got my wisdom teeth out
Was a nominator for St John’s
Celebrated our three year anniversary with a week on the South Coast
Minded Hannah for two weeks while the Frenchs were in Guatamala
Turned 26
Alexis stayed with us for a month
World Youth Day
Attended TEAR Conference
Bought a Mac
Visited Gem in Melbourne for the first time
Went to Alice Springs and on a desert journey
Decided to move to Alice Springs
Started Pilates
Saw Michael Franti in Wollongong
Barack Obama was elected as president of the US
Finished reading the whole Bible
Jo and Victor came to Australia

As with the last couple of years, now that I have finished that list I realise it doesn’t truly represent what 2008 was for me. Certainly it covers some of the important things but doesn’t fully capture what they meant for me. But it totally misses all the little things, the not so significant things that really make up a year. That’s okay, it’s a list and it’s not supposed to do that really.
