25 and Over

4. Develop a physical awareness of your surroundings. As children, we live in our own heads, bonking into things, gnawing on twigs, emitting random squawks because we don’t know how to talk yet. Then, we enter nursery school. You, having graduated college or reached a similar age to that of the college graduate, need to learn to sense others and get out of their way. Walk single file. Don’t blather loudly in public spaces. Give up your seat to those with disabilities or who are struggling with small children. Take your headphones off while interacting with clerks and passersby. Do not walk along and then stop suddenly. It is not just you on the street; account for that fact. (I think anyone older than 12 should do this —natface)i think that most of this article is good on the advice tip. including the whole drinking till you puke thing. i think its great advice that i will probably never follow. but great advice nonetheless.
I like this. A lot. I’m still working on the “Know How” part-a whole lot.
