So this is something I have created with some help from my friends... These things are some things which actually make sense and you know are true..
Enjoy reading it...

What I Wish I'd Known Sooner

-Don't drink grape juice while wearing a white shirt and driving to school.
-Don't let your life wait for other people.
-Dropping a cell phone into a bathtub of water kinda kills the phone.
-Your mother will find out if you dye your hair purple.
-Don't ever fall in love with someone who is more than one thousand miles away from you. it usually doesn't work.
-Milk crates make boring pets.
-If it hurts, Don't do it again!
-That which does not kill you will ultimately make you stronger.
-Speaking in public gets easier with practice.
-Don't sprint around a pool if you're trying to impersonate Jim from Huck Finn.
-When in doubt, Duck. When certain, don't bother 'cause you're already screwed.
-While driving a car through the gate, always, ALWAYS make sure the gate is open. The consequences ight be fatal to your car.
-Never pierce your belly button in the dark.
-Sometimes smart people can do very, very stupid things.
-If you start liking a girl, her roommate will immediately start liking you.
-If your intuition is telling you not to do something then don't. Your intuition is not stupid!
-Cereal is a staple diet for all college students. Who cares how ridiculous you look eating it at 7:30PM.

-Sticking things up your nose isn't the smartest idea in the world.
-You can't light fireworks in the basement and not get caught.
-Hair is flammable, very flammable.
-Never trust your friend with a pair of scissors against you hair.
Nothing matters if you don;t have a loved one to share it with.Your siblings are incredibly precious.
-Zig-Zagging on the road with your scooter during the rain is not exactly a good idea.
-To those who still haven't grasped it yet: Voldemort is NOT Harry Potter's father! this is the result of a disease called 'excess-Star Wars'.
-You can't make love happen, It just Happens.
Real Friends are more important than getting in the right clique in High School.

True... except that it's an orange juice. 8D

Hey there Harshita!

I'm not here to review. ^^ I just want to let you know that this work is not placed on the right forum, just by looking at the content. Perhaps this belongs to the "Other" or "General Artciles" section. You can ask a mod (or those cool people with green names) to help you move this to another place. Thanks. :)

Hahahaha, this is priceless! Congratulations on giving me the biggest laugh of today!

As a rought draft, I think this is really good, but I think it can be made into a great story! Have a voice say all these things, and have the voice adressing the readers, telling the stories and making them flow over in each other. Make it even more relatable and tell about the experience and how it felt, not just what happened. If you were to pull this off I am sure it would make an amazing result!

If it hurst, dont do it again.

This one was just amazing. I related to it on so many levels!

Honestly, I really wish you would work on this, making it into something that not only has enjoyable content, but also something that has enjoyable conveying! Give it your best shot!

Once again, thanks for the laugh! Keep it up!
I came to this world with nothing,
and I leave with nothing but love
Everything else is just borrowed.

Did you mean to make this line two lines? Or is it supposed to be one?
-To those who still haven't grasped it yet: Voldemort is NOT Harry Potter's father! This is the result of a disease called 'excess-Star Wars'.
LOL

Other than the little mistakes I've pointed out above... (^) It was really awesome and I was practically dieing of laughter for the whole thing!

Hey there!

I won't bother nit-piking the mistakes that I noticed because I know the point of this piece isn't to be grammar perfect - it's the content that counts.

This made me laugh - I think everyone agrees with number one, though mine is ketchup, not grape juice.

This isn't a proper review or anything, but I just thought I'd comment saying how cool the list was :)

I do think it belongs in general articals though, seeing as it's not a story. It may even get more views there and you will probably get more feed back with people adding things to the list. The only thing I can think to add is - 'Don't wear roller skates on laminate flooring.' Yes, it hurts :P

Thanks for the laugh!

lol, I'm not sure you're allowed to do that harshita.
I am nothing
but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted
apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's
or maybe like pocket candy
that's just a bit too sweet.
