Where Did 2008 Go?

Another year has passed by so quickly I hardly recall what happened to it. 2008 was a great year full of activity, work travel, personal travel, old friends, new friends, new discoveries, losing a boss, turning 30, applying to b-school, rejecting b-school, finally deciding to go to b-school, and a ton of overzealous consumption of amazing and exotic food. I was also able to cap off the year in style in a city that I love (San Francisco) with some of my closest friends doing what we do best (overzealous consumption of food and making fools of ourselves for our own amusement).

2009 will likely be no less chaotic. Today is the first day of b-school, when I return to the office next week I will have a new boss, I will have one day in the office before I start a week and half of traveling, I will have two visitors from the US, and that's just January. I'm sure it will be crazy and there will be moments of desperation but I'm looking forward to another year in London with whatever else may come my way.

Here's wishing prosperity, health, and happiness to all of you in 2009.
