Self Reflection: A Year and a Half Later

A year and a half ago I wrote a post of a list of 100 different things about me. Random tidbits about my personality, likes, dislikes, thoughts, feelings etc... I recently reread this list and while a majority of them are still the same. There are some that I would change now. Call it a self experiment. I copied and pasted the list from my post titled Self Reflection from December of 2008. For the things that I have changed I put a strike through and also edited with some thoughts. I also added in some more comments to the rest with my 2010 views.
