Listing Agent

Because of this blog's title, I frequently get visitors here as a result of searches for lists of things: "six nutritious things to eat for breakfast," "should I exercise before breakfast," "things that are impossible for humans to do," etc. I always wonder if these folks arriving at SITBB are disappointed upon landing here and finding no answers to their request for such lists. But then it occurred to me--I could write a post where I provide my opinions on two of the most popular of these search phrases. So here they are. Please feel free to offer your own suggestions as well!

"Six Things to Do Before College Graduation"

1) PAY ALL YOUR LIBRARY FINES
2) Buy a nice suit or other outfit that is appropriate for job interviews
3) Get rid of your college textbooks (You likely will never use them again and they are too cumbersome to pack and move)
4) Drop a prof a line who has made a difference in your college career and thank her or him
5) Destroy any incriminating information/materials you may have about any ex-es, and get back any incriminating information/materials any ex-es may have on you
6) Sign up with your alumni office

"Six Things To Do Before Turning 30"

1) Fall in love
2) Purchase at least one piece of furniture that does not involve self-assembly
3) Open up a savings account and actually keep a balance in it
4) Travel to at least one place where every body else does not look and sound like you
5) Forgive someone you have been blaming for something
6) Ask someone who you have wronged to forgive you
