Things I will remember about 2006:
- The Democratic victory in the midterm elections
- Cuzco, Machu Picchu, and Proyecto Huari-Ancash
- Getting a tattoo
- Turning 21
- Moving into Davenport, finally
- The first snow on the rooftop of 109 Howe after pulling an all-nighter with Kate
- Beating Harvard in The Game at last, even though I wasn't there
- Applying to grad schools
- Harvey Weiss' words of wisdom
- Acing the GRE
- Planning the Northeast Climate Conference
- The discovery of Olmec writing
- Steven Colbert's speech at the White House Correspondents Association dinner
- Jon Stewart at the Oscars
- Hearing, in one weekend, live performances by YSO doing Beethoven's 9th, and by Gunther
- Re-opening myself to the possibility of love
- Learning to love taking care of my nails
- The downfall of Tom Delay, Donald Rumsfeld, Jack Abramoff, and the Enron Crew
- Almost no actually cold weather, except in July (oh, Peru >_<)
- Watching my brother graduate from high school, get into Pomona, become an Eagle Scout, win prom king and the virtually universal adoration of the Peninsula, and just about making me sick to my -- I mean, the proudest big sister ever. <3
- Dick Cheney shot a guy in the face.
