“You can’t do it alone. As you navigate through the rest of your life, be open to collaboration. Other people and other people’s ideas are often better than your own. Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, and spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.” - Amy Poehler

Today is the graduation exercises for the Harvard University class of 2011.  As members of the class of 2010, D and I have spent weeks preparing to not even pretend to be genuinely happy for the class of 2011.  We'll be too busy trying to be bitter that we aren't the specialest anymore.  Because although we both think education is great and should be celebrated, we also really like to be the center of attention.  So forget those graduates, focus on us again! 

But, however unexpectedly, that crafty class of 2011 managed to warm our hardened hearts by inviting our girl-crush, Ms. Amy Poehler, as their class day speaker. 

Enjoy her speech here:


And congratulations to the class of 2011.  We guess.
