Insanity is a dish best served microwaved

Well, tonight is my final day as being 27 years old.  So I thought I would share a few of the main things I learned about myself this year.

• Boundaries are important and need to be respected
• I do I have a gift with connecting with students to inspire to make a difference
• I don’t miss teaching as much as I used to miss it
• I am happy being single, but I’m getting sick of it
• Balance in life is so much nicer than letting work dominate it all
• Higher Education is just more hoops
• There are still good people out in this world
• My family drives me nuts, takes advantage of me, and pisses me off–but they are still family and if I needed them they will be there
• I’m a good listener–but I don’t need to be everything to everyone
• There’s always time to read
• I have a great support structure around me
• Giving back still feels good
• I’m really getting older–it’s time to let being young and stupid go
• Traveling really still is the best education
• Money isn’t everything–my happiness isn’t worth the sacafice
• Love is really all around you
• The housing market sucks and buying a house is very emotional
• Hunting for a wii is better than having one
• Nothing feels better than a warm spring day while riding your bike
• It’s alright to eat out by yourself

THere’s probably more, but that’s all that comes to mine… so here’s to being 28!
