Best and Worst of 2008
Ok...the year is winding down and it was a very eventful year.
Now is a good time to reflect.
Pick a category from food to movies to anything you can think of, even personal reflections and accomplishment and list the best and worst of 2008 and what it meant to you.
Best
Movie - Dark Knight
Fun I had - finally going to Disneyworld
World Event: Obama... nuff said
Family event - the birth of my god daughter
Worst
Movie - Speed racer
Month I had - Last month dealing with a lab partner in class who refused to co operate
Decision - cutting loose a long time associate because their legal troubles kept piling up...hardest thing I had to do.
