-Instead of saying “at the beginning of my lunch break” (or whatever unit of time), I say, “at the top of my lunch break.” As in, “Let’s take it from the top.”
-Every single time I go to a job interview, my first instinct is to refer to it as an “audition” when telling friends about it.

-I still use the term “QSA” (Queer-Straight Alliance) rather than the traditional “GSA” (Gay-Straight Alliance) because Rosedale had a QSA, not a GSA (plus I just like the term better – it’s far more inclusive and I think more schools should adopt it).
