“Go backpack Europe. Live on an island in the Caribbean. Play in a band that tours small venues. Whatever. Have fun. Learn about yourself and the world. Make mistakes. You’ll have plenty of time left in your life to waste in a cubicle or a factory.”
“A smile will always make a person feel better.”
“Save every syllabus from every class. During school transfers or major changes, course names or course descriptions don’t always line up and a course may end up not counting and you have to take it again. A syllabus shows course content, and can help you prove you already took fulfilled the requirements.”
“Be sure to research which credit card should be your first. Some have aggressive APR attached and can sink you faster than you can swim. If creditors say your limit has been raised, you can ask them to lower it back down.”
