00'stalgia

While this decade turnover might not be as monumental as The New Millennium, per se, I'd say that it has been choc-full of personal milestones. I graduated from middle school, high school, and college in these past 10 years; this contains my first concert, funeral, wedding, fashion show, relationship, breakup, car, apartment, trip abroad (minus, well, when I was born), etc and so forth. A lot of my friends are ready for the 00's to be over, but I would like to take this moment to note that they weren't all that bad.
