Image via I will be (one of the) first to admit that today’s kids have a lot going for them—they are remarkably tech-savvy, most of them look at going to college (or pursuing some other post-high-school degree) as a given, and many of them are pursuing more extracurricular activities and developing more talents than many teens …
I know that 2013 is over (and thus, also, is my “50 Weeks to Organized” project), but what I didn’t tell you was that I still haven’t finished posting about my last two projects.

So I’m the type of person who’s always working on something, right? Pretty much I can guarantee that on any given day, if you ask me what I’m working on as far as goals or hobbies or skills go, I will have a ready answer for you. That’s just how I am. But something that’s …
