So, 2018 is almost over...

Another year is coming to an end. We'll be entering 2019 in less than 3 weeks and we'll thus be getting very close the end of the current decade. Also, 2030 is closer nowadays than 2000 is. Crazy, huh?

It's not over yet, but how has 2018 been for you on a personal level? It's been an average year for me. Much better than 2017, but not as fun or memorable as 2015 and 2016 were.
I've turned 28 this year and thus am officially in my late 20s and getting ready to enter my 30s. Strange to think about it.

I travelled by airplane again for the first time since 2005 this year. That was cool.

Now, as for the world... well yeah politics and conflicts as usual. I'd rather not waste energy dissecting this now.

In the video game industry there's lots of interesting stuff happening, especially regarding the Nintendo Switch. But I won't buy it this year yet. It's pricey!

There was a World Cup this year. Those are always memorable, but Portugal didn't impress much.

Another thing to note is how hot the weather was this year. Hottest summer ever where live with temperatures reaching and surpassing 40C! And we even had a hurricane in our country for the first time ever. Ouch!

2018 has felt like a transitional year for me personally and for a lot of things I see around me. I dunno if I'll remember this year much in the future.

I'm ready to say goodbye to 2018 and welcoming 2019, to be honest. Even if 2018 wasn't a bad year for me.

What about you? How would you sum up 2018?
