Beanie bash.

If you can't decide between the turquoise or blue beanie don't ask the guy that works there, then once he leaves ask the girl co-worker as a second opinion. He will see you ask her, she'll choose differently than, you'll side with her, and then he'll tell you he's a fashion student. He will also tell you what is wrong with your outfit.

Turquoise it is.

Don't plan on doing five hours worth of studying and errands in a mere three hours. It won't happen. You'll pull an all-nighter.

Memorizing the first twenty eight decimal places of pi is ALWAYS worth it.

Give yourself at least two hours each way to make a one hour trip to the airport. You will be trapped in traffic for three separate accidents on the drive. Causing you to completely miss work.

No presents my bum.

Don't trust your boyfriend when he suggests that Christmas presents should not be exchanged between the two of you. He will get you a present and you won't get him one.

Cook the ground beef before you put it in the enchilada dish.

Don't ever mention that you have a nasty wart on your toe to anyone that you don't want to see it. They will incessantly bug you to show them.

Don't offer to drive someone to the airport in the hopes that they will decline the offer. They won't.

Dancing/singing in the library while filming to make a music video is more awkward than you think it will be.

Making a cake look pretty is not as easy as it sounds. Especially with homemade frosting.


If you ever get the chance to pet a llama, take it. SO WORTH IT. Even if they poop all over the grass in front of your apartment. Also, don't expect the poop to be cleaned up. Ever.

When cereal boxes attack.

Beware of cereal boxes. They can slice open your pinky fingerif you aren't careful.

check your hair before you leave for work every day just on the off chance that there is oatmeal in it. It's ebarrassing to have someone else tell you about the leftover breardfast in your hair.

Don't constantly pick at your skin. You will end up with open wounds all over your hands.

When cutting sweet potatoes at someone else's house, it's okay to ask for a bigger, sharper knife. Otherwise when you are almost done the others will look over, laugh that you used such a small knife, then offer you the bigger one while you deny the offer in embarrassment. And your hand will ache for a while too.

Broken teeth.

When making caramel apples don't melt/cook the caramel too long. It will end up being rock hard.

Don't go to grandma's house over Thanksgiving break expecting to eat even semi-healthy. It won't happen.

If your sister tells you to just play it cool with a guy you like, listen to her or else you"ll just give yourself unnecessary stress.

You know that rug burn you got on your hand that took a turn for the worst and developed a scab? Don't pick the scab. It'll just make the wound worse.

If you have an old "friends with benefits" make it clear that those days are over. He might try to get you to makeout again. Your new boyfriend probably wouldn't like that.

You were listening to that whole video?

When watching youtube videos while your roommate is doing homework, make sure your head phones are plugged all the way in. Otherwise a few minutes into watching an alligator video she'll say "you know your headphones aren't plugged in, right?" Then you'll notice they are only plugged part of the way in. Sound was still coming out of the computer. And you might feel like an idiot.

Don't offer to be the "attacker" in a self defense class your roommate is teaching. You might actually get hurt.

When dying your hair pink so you can dress up as Tonks for the Harry Potter movie premier, make sure to get the front of your hair pink before the hair dye runs out. Otherwise when people look at you from the front they won't be able to see the pink. 

When going to a cabin for the night make sure you bring a blanket that will actually keep you warm in the 50 degree basement all night. Even wearing the one piece snow suit you found in the closet to bed won't keep you warm.

When going to a cabin with a bunch of girls, dressing up in the one-piece snow suit you found in the closet and then going on adventures in the huge cabin is always a good idea.

Roommate's shouldn't cut hair.

If you let your roommate (who has never cut hair before) give you a "trim" make sure she knows that a trim means only a short amount. You might end up with a lot shorter hair than you expected.

before the hair was cut

If your gas light has been on for three days, it's probably time to get gas. Being stuck at a red light with a line of cars behind you is not fun.

If your roommate tells you that apartment 107 is watching Harry Potter right as you pass their door, don't put your ear against it to listen. Two of the girls from that apartment might walk up right then. They will think you are such a creeper.

If you have really bad gas, make sure you are never alone with another human. When you let one rip they will know its you. And even if they pretend not to notice, both of you know the truth.

Don't judge me.

Don't promise an old summer camp roommate of yours (who is still in high school) that you'll go to her birthday party if you really don't want to go. You will feel really old and awkwardly stand by the food table the whole time. Then you'll be ashamed to admit the you actually had some fun at a high school party because you forced Kayleen to go with you.

Don't be too stingy to buy lotion in the winter. Your skin will hate you.

If you sleep at a friends house, beware of which blanket you pick to sleep with. If you choose the biggest, fluffiest one you will wake up in the middle of the night soaked in sweat.

Don't tell your family that you like a boy until he is your boyfriend because they will continue to refer to him as your boyfriend even though you guys have barely held hands.
