Last Post of 2008

It’s been a wild ride for CutEdge this year — the year where I’ve been having to juggle a bunch of extracurriculars, schooling, trying to groom out a social life (har har), pursuing other interests (drawing, music, reading), gaining knowledge, and of course, writing.  I know that I haven’t been the most consistent poster, nor the most interesting (at times — I try to entertain though).  And looking back, I do feel a little tear trickling down my cheek — let’s face it, 2008 was an interesting year.

Here are some shouts to everyone that helped — yeah, yeah, it’s always cool to have your name mentioned on the net, right?

First and foremost, to Rohan “Nahor” Sovig from Your World Wired (I’ll even link to you, *sigh*, hahaha just kidding) for getting me into blogging.  If it hadn’t been for early summer of 2007, I’d still be sitting on my Ikea chair…rotting.

Scott “Scotty D” Davidson, Michael “Mike (sorry, I couldn’t think of anything and “hammer” sounds kinda cheezy)” Chan, Nicholas “Nicholas Picholas” Chan (upcoming designer — http://nickchan.ca — yeah, it should be running soon), Amanda “Kool Mandy” Scarlato (who actually gave me the idea for this post, so I’ll make your entry longer Kool Mandy), Tom “Tommy Wommy” Kwok (Tommy Wommy’s as good as his actual name), and the rest of the Tech Design crew for making me chuckle.

Gary “G-Baby” Chan for being the enthusiast that he is, and pushing me to get those latest gadgets.

Terrence “Jayden” Wong for commenting every so often, and always informing me of the latest news.

Dhruv “Dhruvy from Dubai” Vyas for lending me that external drive — without it I never would’ve been able to write this post (heck, I wouldn’t have seen the importance in backing up altogether).

Cameron “Heawad” Amini (actually, Heawad’s his real middle name…) for keeping CutEdge.org set as his homepage and never complaining.  And being such a good sport about me smacking him everytime I lost at Gears of War 2.

Our quiet, and supportive, sponsors (on left sidebar — most of them are on the home page), who help to support CutEdge.org and its running fees.

All the PR people who’ve taken the time out to contact me: I’m not even lying, you guys really build my anticipation everyday when I check my e-mails.  Ah, and my apologies to those that I didn’t get a chance to reply to — sorry, folks!

To Farhan “Farhanali” Mohamed and Aaron “AK (47?)” Korbacher just cause they’re my friends (yeah, I knew you’d feel left out).

Definitely, to Jonathan Kwan of APH Networks — without your mentoring, pushing, and badgering, I’d have never learned to write a review (or meet deadlines, hahahaha).  Yipes, then again, maybe he doesn’t want people finding out we’re related hahaha.

Almost forgot Melissa “Money Mel (or Melonhead)” Huang for being so enthusiastic about those other blogs I tried (and failed) starting.

And last, but certainly not least, to you dear reader, for sticking with CutEdge.org and me (you stick with me, you don’t stick with I) in 2008 — and I look forward to seeing you again 2009.  …and you better come back, or else I’ll have more than just one little tear trickling.  Ah, and keep those comments and e-mails coming, I love hearing from you folks!

Hm, lots of chuckles in that post.  Probably should fix that?  …nah.
