1. Put a chain around a tree to give it iron.
2. Make sure people do not think your pepper spray is a flashlight.
3. When you can't tell if someone recognizes you or not, introduce yourself first.
4. Try Diet Cranberry 5 Calorie Cranberry juice, it's really good!
5. Never ask a policeman if he is sure about his decision. They do not like that.
6. Some locks are really hard to open. Pull down on the lock once you get to the correct combination and that should do the trick.
7. When you're trying to brown chicken, don't move it around.
8. Rice milk tastes interesting.
9. Don't sit in a running car in closed spaces- you will get carbon monoxide poisoning and die.
10. If you get something broken into, don't ask for fingerprints unless you really think you will get something out of that. The black powder is hard to get rid of.
11. You can't make hot tea bags become iced tea bags. It just doesn't work.
12. If your foot really hurts, don't keep running on it. You will pay for it.

Interesante.
If you turn your key and the car won't start, either the battery or the starter went out. USAA Roadside Assistance is awesome.
Everyday is a gift.
You can pack more into a 2002 Camry than you every imagined. It holds a lot.
When grapes are $2.99/lb, say no to filling up the bag; it will be $10 at the register.
If someone runs away with your hub cap do not try to get it back.
Wooden music boxes are really neat.
Everyone should cut down a Christmas tree at least once in their lifetime.
Bethism's: Onconscious=unconscious. Member=remember. Amblance=ambulance.
Farm equipment that runs on diesel is red...
When I become a millionaire, I am going to buy everything in the Container Store.
There are green jays that are from the blue bird family. They are really cool.
Truvia sugar is the best.
What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?

Chalk Talk.
Tell those you love that you love them, because you never know when it might be their last.
Learn how to change a flat tire, it will come in handy one day.
Sometimes the greatest stroke of luck comes when you least expect it.
Do not walk in the direction of where you fired your pepper spray. You do not need to test the device. It works. Do not find out this the hard way.
Trust your instincts.
The nicest thing you can do for someone is to simply be their friend.
When the going get's tough, head home for some R&R with the family.
Handwritten cards carry a very special message.
Enter surveys that offer prizes. You might be surprised how often you will win.
If you have a really bad crick in your neck, try rolling on top of a tennis ball on the floor. Painful, but sure to provide some relief.
If you are looking for a way to spice up your cereal- try mixing a few different kinds together. You can add nuts, dark chocolate, raisins, cranberries, real fruit, marshmellows, or even jelly.
If you have trouble falling asleep at night, boil lettuce and drink the juice.
Don't skype in public, it makes everyone else feel awkward.

Simple as this.
Don't attempt to carry hot coffee in the same hand that you are opening the door with. You will spill it and burn yourself.
There is nothing like getting a new toothbrush.
There are different measuring cups to use for wet and dry ingredients. Interesting.
You don't have to let go of everything in order to grow up.
Go places. Do challenges. Earn points. Play SCVNGR.
You don't have to travel to another country to make a difference.

Everyday is a new day.
1. Doctors don't get their feelings hurt, so if you want a second opinion then get one.
2. If you receive a parking ticket, don't throw it away. Once you pay for it, keep it and stick it on your windshield when you have to park somewhere you don't have a pass. That way the police officer will think you've already been issued a ticket. -Ashley Burns
3. If you don't see anyone on campus in the middle of the day, check code maroon. don't keep walking!
4. Give everyone a second chance. Sometimes it takes longer to get to know someone, but who knows you may actually turn out to be friends :)
5. If you find yourself in an awkward situation, hang in there.
6. Know yourself, know when you need rest!
7. Serve others first and do it with an open heart.
8. Never doubt that God has you where he wants you right now. Don't be set on your plans, follow His plans for your life.

Wellbeing.
I recently read Wellbeing: The Five Essential Elements by Tom Rath and Jim Harter and here is what I learned:
Career Wellbeing
1.Every day, use your strengths.
2.Identify someone with a shared mission who encourages your growth. Spend more time with this person.
3.Opt into more social time with the people and teams you enjoy being around at work.
Social Wellbeing
1.Spend six hours a day socializing with friends, family, and colleagues (includes work, home, phone, email, and other communication)
2.Strengthen the mutual connections in your network
3.Mix social time with physical activity. Take a long walk with your friend so you can motivate each other to be healthy.
Financial Wellbeing
1.Buy experiences such as vacations and outings with friends or loved ones.
2.Spend on others instead of solely on material possessions.
3.Establish default systems (automated payments and savings) that lessen daily worry about money.
Physical Wellbeing
1.Get at least 20 minutes of physical activity each day- ideally in the morning to improve your mood throughout the day.
2.Sleep enough to feel well rested- generally 7 to 8hrs- but not more than 9.
3.Set positive defaults when you shop for groceries. Load up on natural foods that are red, green, and blue.
Community Wellbeing
1.Identify how you can contribute to your community based on your personal mission.
2.Tell people about your passions and interests so they can connect you with relevant groups and causes.
3.Opt in to a community group or event. Even if you start small, start now.

My goodness.
Note to self: They only accept cash and checks at the DPS.
Caution: If you are hiding behind a door, trying to scare someone, and the door swings open it will hit you right in the face.
Always have some bread near by if you are eating fish. That way if you start choking you have something to help you swallow.
Don't kick those boingy door stops. Some of them are metal.
Never place a bet on the Aggies winning a football game.
Don't turn your windshield wipers on while your windows are rolled down.
If you are waiting in line to use the restroom and you checked the door handle and it seems locked, check again or knock. It's really awkward when you've been waiting for ten minutes and you go back to check the handle and no one is in the bathroom.
If you are running outside and you need to cross the street, a) make sure when you stop you aren't standing right by a bus stop because the bus driver will think you are waiting to get on, and b) some people don't use their blinkers when they are turning so don't assume they are going straight!
