For loop with random value to select from an array

Hi.. I would like to select random values each iteration (some of them will be repeated )how could I do that ?
The output should be something like the following: [5 2 3 1 1 3 4]
clearvars;
clc
y=[1 5 4 3 2];
for i=1:8
new_y=y(randperm(i))
end

If you only want a single value from your array I would suggest this code:
clearvars;
clc
y=[1 5 4 3 2];
for i=1:8
new_y=y(randi(end));
%
%code that uses the new_y scalar
%
end
