The Rules

A few years ago, I made a list of rules with two of my friends -- Holly and Jenny. We were a little tipsy and we used to be more awesome. We've mellowed and maybe even dulled.

  3. Can I just say that re-reading these was a wake up call. We have truly lost ourselves and become dull human beings. Every single one of these was inspirational and brilliant.

    I have been inspired to become awesome again. I just needed these tools!
