Things you had to learn the hard way. Options

[Mistress Bags]

What are important lessons in life that you learned through mistakes of your own?

[goodcharlotte]

Never spray cologne in your mouth. I was like six.

[think!IMAGINARIL...]

Never put your finger near a chicken coop.
They bite and it hurts

Never feed pigeons/seagulls from your car.
They swarm too fast. I even found a pigeon in my car after that..

[me1issaaaa]

Hahahaha, aww. Poor Ian
Um, don't not look where you're going. I've run into so many things this year alone. I'm so clumsy.
Oh, and never feed seagulls at the beach. Dozens fly in, and they DON'T LEAVE.

[goodcharlotte]

Never get near a goat with a jacket. It was my favorite jacket too.

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

Ice is slippery.
Stairs won't move.

hahahaa

playing with round brushes, getting them stuck, scissors, short hair isn't that bad i guess.

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

^^ Yeah. Last year I slipped and fell in the student parking lot at school. I hit my butt on the curb. My brother's friend Joel picked me up and carried me into school. Aww. I went around asking my friends if they wanted to check my butt for a bruise. I was just joking though.

And, yes, I've tripped up... and down... many stairs. LOL.


When I was little I would always take the round brushes and get them stuck! My poor mom. She had to pull them out all the time.

Don't play DDR and ITG without a belt, or your pants will fall down. It's quite embarassing, really.

Oh that happened to me and my sister's friends were over. Atleast I was wearing my lucky boxers.

[Mistress Bags]

Technically, my pants didn't fall.. They just kept sliding down a whole lot. Luckily for me, I was wearing a rather long shirt.

[*mona lisa*]

This is from elementary school: Don't trust average friends with your innermost thoughts.

[Gypsy Eyes]

Always think before speaking. I don't do that as much as I should, it always gets me in trouble.

[angel-roh]

1. Walk slow on stairs T_____________________T;; I was like 12 when I realized walking downstairs fast on icy stairs is dangerous.... omg I thought I died T_T;;

2. Boyfriends?

oh and i agree what gypsy eyes said too. always think before speaking T___T;;;

[*My Cinderella.*]

Spending money before you get a second opinion.

[doork]

Don`t front.

LUCKY! I got looks at school for an entire year. I wasn't even wearing a shirt. I should keep that in mind next time.

[julianamon]

Karma is a bitch. Dont do something bad/stupid, and expect something good to happen.

boyfriends.

[think!IMAGINARIL...]

NEVER FEED SWANS THAT SWIM IN THE WATER BY A PIER.
THEY'RE EVIL!
I was feeding it little fishies when it bit my finger

[Mistress Bags]

Yeah, but you're a relatively good-looking guy, at least from what I can tell of your signature picture. I'm a short, chubby girl-- and I was in a public arcade in the mall.

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

Reminds me of my post. Except the ice and stairs were seperate.

[Mistress Bags]

Oh, on the subjects of stairs, you really shouldn't fly down them in the dark. I still haven't learned that lesson, and I have the bruises to prove it!

[goodcharlotte]

Public arcades scare me.

Never fall asleep in class becasue your friends will color your bald head to make it look like you have hair.

Why? Ha, I work in one.



Never eat when you're nervous!

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

Never eat when you're nervous!

Eep.

[Mistress Bags]

Yes!



Don't sit in the back of a classroom; it causes you to not pay attention.

[troublemaker36]

don't play with fire when your wearing acrylics

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

^^ That reminds me of a random thing that I don't like... Like in class when someone sits in the back and they keep complaining that they can't read the board. There's usually a few empty desks in the front of the class, but they keep saying they can't see the board. It's distracting.

[*This Confession*]

Don't trust everyone, and don't fall in love to fast.

Looks like Ian as had some really hard things to learn, poor jacket.


And I agree with the never eat when your nervous.

[goodcharlotte]

Yeah. That goat ruined my childhood. And the DDR incident ruined my school social life for a whole year. Trust me girls can be cruel. Ha they would push me up against lockers and give me the once over. Not fun.

[xforgottenlove]

never sit with your back facing the stairs. cuhz sooner or later you're gonna forget and wanna lean back. ahh it hurt

[*This Confession*]

awe its okay Ian.

Anyway hmm I'm sure I could think of so many others.

Missing people is only half of it.

[Mistress Bags]

Physical appearance means nothing. Something I learned at a very early age, thankfully. It saved me from going through the nasty, annoying teenage girlie stage.

[*Azarel*]

Never fall asleep in class becasue your friends will color your bald head to make it look like you have hair.

Total rip off of Calvin & Hobbes!

I've learned a lot of the things the hard way, but sometimes that's the best way to learn it.

[GlecieC]

I learned that I should always look at where I'm going while I'm running.

Last school year, I was running to catch up with my friend who was ahead of me. I looked at the people who were on the football field while running and all of a sudden, I hit a pole, HARD. I fell backwards and I was really concerned about my nose because I thought I had broken it, luckily I didn't, it just stung. I did busted my lip and chipped little piece of my tooth (got that fixed!), it wasn't really that noticeable though.

I'm lucky I didn't pass out or get a concussion!

Oh and I'm also lucky because only my friend saw what happened. ONLY she was there haha. That would've been wayyy embarassing if other students were around.

Never let someone take advantage of you; it will only hurt you in the end and if they are taking advantage of you, they will probably end up abandoning you when you are most in need and using your weakness against you. Never think that you aren't worthy of great friends. There's good people out there, you just have to look.

[Mistress Bags]

Don't use your cards as a fan when playing poker, no matter HOW hot it is!

[pedophile]

Never play DDR w/ a strapless bra.
Never go to an amusement park w/ flip flops on.

[Mistress Bags]

Haha, Lollipops! So true!

When you go on a long road trip, bring a toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste for when you do stops, or otherwise you'll have smelly breath until you reach your destination.

[Dreamers]

dont slide doenstairs in a silky skirt!!!!!!!!!!! ohhhhhh the pain......

Never spin around and around in the pool, you WILLL get sucked under and you WILL barf! lol

[HakunaMatata]

Never fall asleep in class becasue your friends will color your bald head to make it look like you have hair.

My friends and I are MEAN when someone falls asleep. After a few minutes, we poke 'em, see if they don't move, we start the process of writing on them, sticking post-its on them, and taking lots and lots of pictures.

Oh, and don't procastinate an essay until the morning of. Just don't do it.

[Jeng]

[Mistress Bags]

Be nice to everyone, even strangers; you never know when somebody is having a bad day!

[littleswallow]

1] never use a golf club to hit your cousin when you're pissed.

2] never run around while holding a stapler, hit the door and get your finger stapled. (that hurt!)

3] never surprise a dog cause he's gonna remember you forever and chase you whenever you go out.
