"Research tells us that fourteen out of any ten individuals like chocolate" -- Sandra Boynton

How to be Smarter: Don't get stuck in a rut with anything. Wake your senses up. Today, try a Carmel Apple Cider with whipped cream from Starbucks. What a beautiful drink. 

How to be Prettier: Pale pink nail polish flatters every skin tone, and chips are less noticeable in a lighter color. 

How to be (less) Awkward: Keep your iPod headphones at an appropriate volume. Yes, you like to listen to the My Best Friend's Wedding soundtrack on high. Who doesn't? Maybe the kid sitting next to you in the library.
