I think I was skipped over in line. Aren't you supposed to get an instruction manual to adulthood right after your diploma? The Principal hands you the diploma, and then some random lady off the stage hands you the manual for the rest of life? And for the record I do imagine her as Milificent, in old lady form, from Snow White....
There are things that I still go to the "adults" at work and in my life for questions, and it's almost like getting help for your homework when you're in elementary school. I went into buying a house with little to no information or help. My lender I think hated me because I was so paranoid about screwing up the process that I called him at least 2-3 times a week throughout the whole process. And I always brought every single piece of paperwork that had anything to remotely do with the house. If you ever need a great mortgage company and lender I reccomend Lake Mortgage and go see Ted . He is very patient. VERY patient. Trust me.
So my question to you is- what advice would you have put into the Life's Instruction Manual?
Yay- your blog is alive! My advice would be: be sure to laugh every day, don't sweat the small stuff, don't compare yourself to others, learn to laugh at yourself, and don't hold a grudge.
