1. What were some of the best/worst times for you in this past decade?

Worst- Dad was scheduled to travel from France to NY to NC on Sept 11th, 2001. The worst part was not knowing anything for the first few hours. Then it turned out to be a terrible day for everybody Grandpa died in 08. Fell out of touch with people that I was buddy buddy with in middle school & high school (2000-2007).

Best- Met a girl that I've been w/ for 4+ years now. Going to college. Life has been pretty swell all around since middle school


2. What do you predict for the next decade in your life?

Graduate with a double major in '11, go to law school, get married, build a mountain of debt, implement proactive financial plan to be out of debt by end of the decade, and start a family.


3. What are your predictions for the next decade on a global scale?

2012 will come and go. A lot of progress will be made in stem cell and nano technology/research.

early part of the millenium: sucked donkey balls holy hell hard. Something about being a mentally ill teenager, or something.

mid 2000s onward: met friends, changed self for the better, met husband, life is good.

late 2000s: things are still looking up.

Next decade: job stuff, a move west, start a family.

doesn't the decade technically end at the end of this year

1/4/2010 2:39:08 AM

^^ i thought it ended on Dec 31st, 2009.

Decade = 10 years

1= 2000
2= 2001
3= 2002... so on and so for til 10=2009

right I've just always heard it goes from 01-10

but maybe I'm wrong

I believe decades try to align with the turn of a century or millennium. Therefore, the 0s decade was the first A.D. decade. Which means the first decade of the 21st century would be the 2000s, the 2nd being the 2010s.

cause the other day I was like isn't it 2000-09 to someone

and they were like nah it's the end of 2010

and I was like, but that doesn't make sense



so I rethought it, but I never thought to look it up
