- Not all friendships last, and that's ok. Cling to the good ones and get rid of the bad before they drive you crazy.
- Basic automobile needs (how to change a tire, check the oil, the transmission fluid, and know what kind you need for your vehicle).
- How to unclog a drain. (Let's face it ladies, our hair is an issue, and in taking care of it, you need to take care of your drains.)
- How to format a resume. (This may seem like a no-brainer to some, but if you didn't take specific classes in high school, it may be a problem for you.)
- How to file your own taxes. (Turbo Tax is a great thing, but some people still don't know how to do it on their own. If you are 25 and you still have your parents file your taxes, you need help.)
- KEEP A CALENDAR. (Appointments, birthdays, periods, pay day... Don't let it sneak up on you!)
- Spend a little, but not too much. (Make a budget to make sure that you're spending your money appropriately, but don't forget that little sliver of it that's just for you and the things that you like!)
- Keep your emergency numbers around. (Doctors, plumber, electrician, the local police department,a lawyer if you have one.... You never know what kind of sticky situation you might get in to, and it helps lower the stress if you already know who to call.)
- Make sure your purse is stocked for your usual emergencies. (Tampons, an extra phone charger, Midol, make-up... Whatever you use frequently or always find yourself needing... that's what your purse is for! Clean out the JUNK at least every other week and make sure you've got everything you need! So many women forget to check!)
- HAVE FUN. (With work, school, or whatever you've got going on, this is one of the most active times in your life. Make sure to SET ASIDE TIME for yourself, or a girls night. Whatever it takes for you to let your hair down and have some fun! It's the most relaxing thing that you could do for yourself. So lower that stress, and that blood pressure, and round up your friend for a night on the town, or whatever it is that you want to do!)
