Expert Advice- Vandy Style

PT was unable to post, so she would like me to toss out this challenge to all of you.

She would like to know what advice VKs would give their Grand children and Great Grand children.

Her first two entries are as follows:

1: Your prom dress and even your Bridal gown should not cost a fortune, save your money for school.
2: You can never do anything so bad that your family will not love you, unless you have done  something unforgivable.

Okay the challenge is active, what say you.

Ah. I'll say what I found out over 20 years ago.

Sometimes alone is better.

When you get a chance to lead, lead like you know the way.

Travel and read

Take time to relax

OOOOOoooo You guys are GOOD!

Okay
Vampires are not real I don't care what Buffy tells you. Trust me, people do not want to live forever. It's hard enough to keep things straight after a few decades,, forget a few centuries

Every great party must have Sparkly Balls. Go to your local party supply and tell them GH sent you

Music from the '40s, '50s and '60s is good for you. Hip Hop, Rap and disco will fry your brain. Just say NO

If a handsome young man asks to you help him tend the greens (it's night work, ya know) of a local golf course say YES! You will not get another opportunity

On a clear night, find a place away from ambient light and look at the sky. All those beautiful stars and milk-glass moon were there before man learned to walk. The first people looked at them the same way you will and asked the same questions. Your grandbabies will do the same.

Enjoy the company and the wonder

Be generous when tipping. Folks who rely on tips are either saving for school, current students or they forgot to plan for their retirement. PT

If you become a manager and have at least two subordinates who hate each other, assign them a project to do together. Then send them someplace that has few creature comforts and amenities (think Australian Outback, Alaskan wilderness or maybe Thule Greenland – whatever you can manage.)
They will come back friends (or maybe in jail) Either way the bickering will be over.

Should you find yourself dancing in a reflecting pool of a botanical garden at night wearing only a slip, be sure to smile at the cameras high in the trees. Your mother will be delighted to see you on TV. Be sure to be polite to the cops who will arrive shortly.

There is no greater sport than Indiana High School basketball. However, the world will not end if you do not make the team or make cheerleader. It WILL end if CGHS loses to Greenwood.
But it will start up again as soon as the sock hop starts
