I...
Went to my first prom!
Worked at McDonald's
Got my first real taste of traveling when I left the country for the first time and toured Italy with my high school Humanities class. We went to a lot of cities including Urbino, Verona, Rome, Venice and Florence. We learned a lot in that class thanks to two of the best teachers I've EVER had (Hurt and Peters a.k.a. the HP combo) and it was so surreal to see the architecture and historical structures that we had spent so much time studying. It was an awesome trip because we not only got to see really awesome stuff, but we actually KNEW what we were looking at. I fell in love with Italy and swore to myself I would return one day.

Here's to the next ten!
