Things I Recently Realized

Things I have realized over Spring Break:
1. I hate spring in Houston. Actually, it just hates me. And my respiratory system.
2. Dan in Real Life is one of my favorite movies in the world.
3. That I know my best friend is officially my best friend when we can drive places in complete comfortable silence. And because she's been with me for over five years now. I think that's the longest ongoing relationship I've ever had with someone beyond my family.
4. Money is not the end-all of life. Even if it feels like it sometimes.
5. Being grown up is something I will never totally figure out.
6. That it's been a long time since I've had more than one really close girlfriend. It feels good to be able to trust girls again.
7. I miss my family. And being at home. But I will admit...it will be very different for me to be living with them this summer instead of being at camp.
8. Going to bookstores and spending hours in them is one of my favorite things in the whole wide world.
9. People are endlessly complicated. This isn't a recent realization, but an ongoing one.
10. Sometimes you just know. Don't you?

Did I mention that I really like being able to travel silently with you...it's like a peace that I cannot explain in words, though I am sure you know exactly what I mean since we share the same brain.
