"For to Have Faith is to Have Wings" -JM Barrie

Advice from a college girl.
 1) Fruit snacks found on the ground are okay to eat when you find them in a place that you know exactly what else has been on the floor. (Didn't follow that? Then let's just say that as a rule, don't eat fruit snacks off of the ground.)
2) Lunch time is the best time. The joy that can be found in a simple peanut butter sandwich is amazing to me.
3) Be friendly to cute boys.
4) Drink lots and lots of water.
*5) When faced with a problem (**4 flights of stairs, a missed bus, a tricky calculus problem), say to yourself, "Aha! We have a problem." Then stare it down. Stare. It. Down. This could take a fair amount of time. Then say to yourself "Self, you can do hard things."
6) You CAN do hard things.
7) Don't fall in love with a European too fast.
8) Keep the peace in the apartment. A.K.A. No dibs on boys.
9) Go to FHE.
10) Go to church.
11) Do your visiting teaching.
12) Love a lot.
13) Do your homework.
14) Take a nap. Lots of naps.
15) Do not cry loudly when you see a bad score in the testing center. (Notice the loudly. It's fine to cry.)
16) Do cry loudly when you see a good score in the testing center.
17) The testing center is just taking O.W.L.s. Channel your inner Hermione.
18) There are too many numbers on here.

I don't know what it is about Peter Pan, or rather, J.M. Barrie, but I love them.
"The reason birds can fly and we can't is simply that they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings."

Keep the faith.
