At the stroke of midnight we shall be saying goodbye to 2008. The most productive, exciting, adventurous year I've ever had. I'm so thankful for everything that happened this year, it was just surreal.
- Landed a new job teaching Flash animation at a film school.
- Had a great Australia day with my friends.
- Joe Outterside/Xenon came to Perth and lived with me for a month.
- Worked my 2nd season on Australian TV.
- Turned 21 and had a party with all my closest friends. Had a MASSIVE night out.
- Held my own booth at a convention and was approached by many people, which was just a surreal feeling.
- Was introduced to the voice of Goku at that convention by a member of staff who was a fan of my work lewl!
- Travelled my first international flight alone.
- Met some great friends that I've known online for yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaars.
- Felt out of place at Anime-Expo but had a GREAT time anyway.
- Went to Disney Land for the first time ever.
- Had Reeses pieces for the first time ever and ate the brown paper surrounding the chocolate.
- Discovered Weinersnitzel.
- Pooped lots (see above).
- Met up with Cycon and Vallos of Podunkton and DCK.
- Went drinking with Cycon. We got into a pretend fight and I punched him in the face breaking his glasses and making the top of his nose bleed. Felt really bad.
- COMIC-CON SAN DIEGO.
- Met more online chumps, including Tom Fulp and most of the NG staff.
- Met Luis (what a dream boat).
- Had a funny incident with "Doug" and "Jeremy" from Pure Pwnage on the street of San Diego. Long story, I guess.
- Met Jhonen Vasquez, creator of JTHM, Squee and Invader Zim.
- Had drinks at Danomano and Hans' hotel room, called Krinkles "Kinkles" and he punched my in the chest. He's a big guy okay.
- Met just about everyone else under the sun there.
- Attending the Castle Crashers party, got extremely drunk even though I told myself I wouldn't.
- Stayed out even longer with Egoraptor, Tom Fulp and Tom Vian (Flash Bros). Cracked onto some random girl behind the bar, told her I was famous in Australia and she asked for my autograph. So I walked behind the bar and signed a napkin. Tom Vian told her it was worth "LOADS" on the Australian Ebay.
- Woke up to a earth quake for the first time ever. Had to grab onto a TV.
- Went to Universal studios with ChannelCat and Vensy of Sheezyart.com
- Went to bubba gumps. That place rocks.
- Went back to everyday life.
- Entered a Newgrounds competition for the first time ever.
- Collaborated with RedMongoose.
- Got contacted by Playboy.
- Started working for Playboy.
I think it was obvious what the highlight of my year was.
Happy New Year!!
