Really all you gotta do in life is costume party like you know what you’re doing.

Flirt daily with the day’s finity.

First impressions of loveliness are the strongest, so let them be the loveliest.

Pour some out in honor of all the pleasant, temporary things in life.

Get the most out of your epoch.

Avoid analytic explorations into your personal minutiae in conversations.

Ensure you are described positively in your peers’ testimonials.

Keep at least a few cellulose friends.

Don’t forget to occasionally lounge atop the simple pleasures the earth has set aside for us all.

The ghouls of past decisions follow us all.

Laugh more at the century.

Never overlook the beneficial and mutual advantages of drunken diplomacy.

Fall in and out of renaissances, and monthly reinvent yourself.

Needing full nights of sleep is a reflex you can defeat.
