Re: Arriving to your classes at
Do: Set your alarm to the loudest setting of the song “White
and Nerdy” by Weird Al Yankovic because you will immediately jump up out
of bed and start singing and practicing your white and nerdy dance moves…
making it impossible to go back to sleep!
Don’t: Get up out of bed and go straight to the Social
Security Office to permanently change your name to Weird Lila Cugini. This will most definitely
make you late for class…

Do: Spring for the extra monthly expense of cable
television.
Don’t: Cancel your cable because you think you can watch
episodes of Lost for free off the internet the next morning after they air
because your internet connection will get interrupted 367 times per episode
making one 40 minute episode of Lost take 2 hours and 27 minutes. Time which could be better spent getting ready for school!

Do: Keep a bag of bagels in your freezer. Be sure to
pre-slice them for a quick, inexpensive breakfast and remember to always brew your coffee at home.
Don’t: Stop off at
the café before school because after waiting in a long line to order a
bagel and cream cheese and your favorite fancy coffee drink it will end costing
you $35 dollars because um… Lila, you will also forget to put money in the meter!

Do: Visualize working in a fun creative
business environment after you graduate.
Don’t: Stop off at the local joke shop before school to
buy a whoopee cushion for your teachers desk because you can’t expect
everyone at

But when you
Do follow
this advice and arrive to school on time…
Don’t forget to
pat yourself on the back for a job well done!

Please feel free to contact Lila if
you are interested in having your marching band practice in front of her house
every weekday morning at 6 a.m.
