A jQuery best practices question.

I am writing a very jQuery intensive web page. I am new to jQuery and notice its power, but as I come with heavy javascript experience and knowledge, my question is: What should be done in jQuery and what in plain javascript.

For example, there are callbacks that send a plain DOM object as an argument. Should I use that or should I wrap it ( like $(this)).

Does it matter if I do this.x=y or $(this).attr("x", y).
