So I was mistaken when I said I had reached my 1000th post 2 weeks' back; after some housekeeping of the drafts in my Dashboard, I only have 996, including this one. There's still a chance to make the thousandth post really special.

As I finish the last of the Krispy Kreme donuts, the butterscotch which we all took from the bag Joash was passing around the hotel corridor on our last night, remove the last pesos and sentinos from my wallet and finish tagging the last of the pinoy photo albums, Philippines '08 will be so much more than just a trip in my memory.

Now I gear up for the final trip of the year, back to Bintan again, this time with the musketeers plus Pet. 3 more days out of the country should be enough to satiate my necessary quota of year-end fun. I can't actually remember the last time the 5 of us spent an extended period of time together, not even Phuket '06 since Josh wasn't there. Looking forward to it, and I'll be back for good on the night of the 23rd.
