Adventures (Or Misadventures) Of 2007

Heck. Time flies. I realized its December and only a month left before a new year. Before I turn into a beer-bellied 50-year-old with receding hairline, allow me to gratify myself and point out the highlights of my 2007.



1. Went horseback riding for the first time in Sabah


Thanks to my non-existent horseback riding knowledge, it was almost disastrous.



2. White-water rafted down the Padas river



It's a good thing that I water rafted before a Dutch tourist died attempting to do it, otherwise I would think twice. Rumours about crocodiles in the river doesn't help either.



3. Turned 24


I think you start losing count of your age in mid-20s.



4. Parasailed in Pattaya


Yes, I know its over-commercialized and nothing more than getting strapped with belts all over your body and under your crotch before hauling you up in the air. But anything that gets the adrenaline pumping for a good 15 minutes deserves a spot here.



5. Molested a snake in Bangkok


Wait, this isn't a highlight. Its a "lowlight" that scarred me for life.



6. Unexpectedly moved from away from my hometown to Miri


Beautiful sunsets and the pace of life is a nice change.



7. Played paintball for the first time


Two words : Damn.Fun.



How was YOUR 2007?
