Things I learned in 2008

(a continuation of 2006 and 2007)

Trust is a very delicate thing.

Snow isn't as exciting as it was when I was 10.

Surprises are so much fun!

If it seems too good to be true, sadly, it probably is.

The youth vote is a powerful thing.

Yep, I still hate skiing.

I have more balls than many of the men in my life.

Doing the hard thing is sometimes doing the right thing.

Grantseeking is proving to be way more rewarding than grantmaking.

I still know how to throw a damn good party.

All men aren't pigs.

Jumping ship without knowing how to swim isn't necessarily suicide.

Sunshine does wonders for the soul.

Fuck 'em, they'll get what they deserve... someday.

I love the pounding feeling in my chest when you pound on those drums.

America is finally more excited than afraid of change.

You can fall out of love with someone and still love them more than ever.

Having a messy room is just "my thing".

I am still so lucky.
