Cool beans, Catrin. Congrats on your maiden voyage! I'm sure you'll be fast friends. 
One point of clarification: Does the frame itself, i.e., before being built up, weigh 10.5 pounds? I'm not aware of any bike--carbon, Ti, aluminum or steel--that weighs as little as 10.5 pounds fully built, even one as little as yours. Just curious!
ETA. Nevermind my question about weight. I reread your post. My reading comprehension is WAY off!

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
