That whole weekend was so amazing!!! Staying up until all hours of the night watching Seb and Val, almost getting run over by Richard Gauthier, random skater sightings at the hotel, ROOTS runs, the show itself, the reception, ROOTS yoga shoots, "maybe its the back of the elevators?", Uniboob statues, Erin being mischievous, Tim Horton's and Jules' sushi pants picking up, SKATER ELEVATOR, drunk guys galore, riding the elevator with Isabelle, not sleeping AT ALL!!! So much fun!!!
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year? Finding out that all the kids on my special education caseload passed the MCAS graduation tests (even if it was by the skin of their teeth)

12. Whose behavior merited celebration? One of my girls that I had last year in my resource classes. She is out in all regular education classes this year and is doing AWESOME!!!
13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed? Claudia from work. First of all, I was appalled that she would go over my head to the principal and rat me out and then I was depressed because I thought that I was definitely going to get spoken to by the principal. But, he hasn't been anything but nice and kind to me, so I'm not so worried anymore. But I definitely had a couple breakdowns related to her this year.
14. Where did most of your money go? To the salary that pays for the SOI Skaters salaries...yeah, that's basically it ;)

37. Who did you miss? My skating girls :) , Steve/Alaina, Kel, Cate
38. Who was the best new person you met? All of my figure skating friends ... I cant believe that we have only known eachother for such a short amount of time. The crazy times that I have shared with you surpass some of the adventures that I have had with people that I have known all of my life. Thank you. (yeah, so I'm stealing what Cassie wrote because it echoes all of my sentiments exactly!)
39. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2003: People you just meet can become your closest friends in a really short amount of time, if you put 11+ figure skating fans in one hotel/room you will have a BLAST!!!, Chuck E. Cheese is not as fun as it was when you were 7!, some people will do whatever they can to bring you down, others will just not understand the awesomeness that is Rumania Rumania, text messaged skating results can make you really happy or really sad ;), road trips are something that I should have been doing much longer than I have!
40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year: "I Don't Have to Be Me Til Monday!"
