17. Collect things.
Postcards, dolls, stamps. It’s fun to have something to build on, even if it’s a little silly.

15. Once you're old enough to buy it, always keep...
You never know when an occasion requiring celebration will sneak up.
14. You don't really need to own a cell phone.
There is no one on this earth who needs to be able to reach you at all times. Get a landline and an answering machine.

Educate yourself about minor repairs, general safety and signaling. Then, go.

4. It's better to take your time making a decision...
Weigh the pros and cons on your own. Learn not to let others influence your personal choices.
3. Try to keep cursing to a minimum.
On a whole, it’ll make you look smarter, more professional, and more ladylike. And when the odd sailor-speak slips out, it’ll be charmingly naughty.
2. Don't gossip.
It may be fun in junior high, but after that it’s just tacky.
1. Learn to make a pie from scratch.
Even the crust, no store-bought nonsense.
