- Dive in the shallow end of the pool. It's just not worth the headache.
- Go backpacking with my parents, I don't care how cheap it is.
- Believe anyone who says you can just grab a cab out of the harbor. If the harbor is abandoned and you have no phone number to call, there will not be a taxi magically waiting for you as you disembark.
- Ever, ever, ever live in a hotel room numbered 13 again. There is not believing in superstition and then there's sheer stupidity.
- Walk alone in a city I know is full of horny southerners who have no decorum whatsoever. Liberation of women or not, some things are just bound to cause more trouble than they're worth. All right, so I may not be able to keep that one, but it's a good thought.
- Walk through the junky section of town alone, in the dead of night, just cause it's the most direct route to my friend. Brave or not; dead is still dead.
- Fall for the "I'm so helpless and scared, please help me" routine, I really should know better.
- Tell someone I love them and expect them to understand I mean it in a general sense, not a romantic one.
- Spend hours in excruciating pain without going to the hospital, just because I don't want to waste the doctors' time. The doctors are there to alleviate pain, I should learn to just let them do their freakin' job already.
- Say yes to shallow acquaintances without knowing all the details of what they want me to do. People who look nice, aren't necessarily so.
