A few things I learned in 2010...

you can totally wear black, brown, and blue all at once...I do it all the time

silver and gold sometimes go together just fine

if you don't want to hear it, you won't

expensive nail polish is totally worth it (for your fingers at least...your toes can handle the cheap stuff)

no good comes from running after yesterday

everything they teach you at church about chastity is true

not all who wander are aimless

sometimes we want someone or something so bad we'll go back on what we believe

it's not enough to merely survive but sometimes that's all we can do

walking away is sometimes the answer

you can move on without closure

it's better to live in the present

equilibrium is possible

just because you can handle it, it doesn't mean that you should

avocado egg rolls at The Cheesecake Factory are to DIE for

I want to get a Dachshund puppy

I may never have another boss as amazing as Kim Larson

keep calm and carry on

graduate school is a possibility
