Thus far here are my key pieces of important notions:
1. Having a snowboard and being a good snowboarder are very very different things. (My tail bone agrees)
2. Running = less butt = less cushioning = OUCH! When you fall hard
3. Someday when I have my dream stone house, it will have a huge fire place : ).
4. Adults are just old children with authority. In all honesty many of them make worse decisions than I would as a 20 year old. This does not go for all adults, but for many... I don't think they ever grow up.
5. I will never never make alcohol a priority in my life. I think a glass of wine now and again or some with a holiday or friends is fine. All in moderation though. It's expensive and enhances even older people to do stupid things.
6. Lobster is DELICIOUS! (Especially in Macaroni).
7. Revisit Boston in the Summer. It's beautiful but very very cold. With that, only take people who like history. It's a great historical place but with complainers its hard to appreciate.
8. Guys who are stupid, party crazy, and insensible as college students are likely the same as adults. The issue is they now are teaching children... bad cycle. Don't marry one of those.
9. I really really hope I have daughters. Girls seem much easier to handle.
10. Winter Intersession courses are a bad idea... No one wants to do homework on vacation.
11. I don't like when people sit and watch me while I am trying to get something done. Even if they are quite, it's awkward and I wish they would do something else.
